Online Electronic Medical Records (EMR) and Electronic Health Records (EHR)

The Electronic Medical Records issue is quite complex, because there is no standard yet, and thousands of competing applications try to conquer the big clients. Some are Open Source, some are free, many are sold. A few countries and states have decided to implement a single EMR application, to lower costs and focus all the …

Psychological Testing and Treatment

To this proposal, the 3 medical businesses described above apply: Online EMR, Telemedicine, Marketing and Marketplaces. Psychology is a discipline that can greatly benefit from the Internet, because there is no strict need for physical contact between patient and doctor.

Health eBizz Proposals

  While generating e-businesses I explored all of the sites that match Entrepreneurs (inventors, web business developers, small business owners) with Investors. There are many, and none of them was of any use for me. However, they have a place in the e-economy and some of them eventually produce transactions. There are a lot of …
