Submitted by John Farrell on Mon, 02/02/2009 - 1:29pm
The Medical Records Institute's yearlong drive to promote healthcare IT applications on cell phones and other mobile devices has led to the formation of a new, non-profit advocacy group. Unveiled Sunday in Palm Springs, Calif., during the opening day of MRI's 25th annual Towards the Electronic Patient Record (TEPR+) conference and exhibition, the mHealth Initiative, Inc. is open to vendors, groups and individuals, and will focus on the latest information on health applications through mobile devices (mDevices).
