Patients need the best service possible from both their hospitals and doctors, and that includes easy  and convenient access to their medical records for immediate referral. It will be best in an onliune world of today that these information could also be accessed online anytime and anywhere.

The Medical City (TMC) launched today an innovative service that provides its patient-partners with easy and secure access to their medical records via the Internet, free –of-charge.

Dubbed “TMC Partner Link,” the on-line facility allows patients to view their laboratory and radiology diagnostic results, as well as discharge summaries wherever they are. It also features various health trackers that enable patients to monitor their vital signs via a graphic interface. “For now, we have trackers for blood pressure, heart rate, blood sugar and weight,” says Dr. Mike Muin, Health IT Head of The Medical City. “What’s unique about these trackers is that they are integrated with our hospital Electronic Medical Records, and allow doctors to monitor their patients without frequent hospital visits. It fully embraces the concept of patient partnership beyond the walls of the hospital.” TMC Partner Link however does not provide medical advice, so patients should still consult their doctors for proper interpretation of the diagnostics and symptoms.

PRO-FRIENDS Launches New Mobile Site For Better Customer Service

I recently attended the launch of the mobile-friendly website of Property Company of Friends, Inc., more popularly known as PRO-FRIENDS, one of the fastest-growing real estate companies in the Philippines, and was established by a group of dynamic individuals who espoused a common vision of creating communities and transforming lives by providing affordable, good quality homes.

What was admirable with this event was that instead of going directly to discuss about their new mobile site, they included a short seminar at the start of the program that talks about Mobile Marketing. The seminar discussed the current and emerging technologies and trends - of how the world has gone mobile and continuously advancing towards more enhanced technologies that support mobile access. Mobile marketing access is therefore ongoing and is perceived in the future as the way people will gather information to help them in their decision making.

“Now that the Office of Civil Defense, the Coast Guard, and the Philippine Navy have already exhausted their search and rescue efforts and begun retrieval operations, our immediate objective is to determine what circumstances led to this unfortunate incident,” Secretary Abaya declared.

“We want to find out what really happened and we will do whatever is necessary within the purview of the DOTC, to avoid such accidents in the future,” Abaya added.

The Board of Marine Inquiry (BMI) is tasked to investigate the accident, for the purpose of identifying its cause, as well as concomitant liabilities, if there are any.
