Cloud-based electronic health record vendor Practice Fusion has launched a new EHR optimized "from the ground up" for the Apple iPad, iPad Mini and Android tablets.

"The new EHR performs faster, is more responsive, has more intuitive workflows and is built on industry-leading technologies--all designed with the medical professional in mind," company executives said.

The EHR leverages technologies like Bootstrap, HTML5, jQuery, D3.js, Ember.js and is supported by back-end technologies like Microsoft .Net and Amazon S3. It also includes the Practice Fusion platform's existing features.

"With a tablet-optimized EHR, physicians are no longer bound to their desk in the exam room," Practice Fusion executives said. "They can move freely around the office, accessing patient records and logging patient visits on the go. It also integrates seamlessly with the consumer-facing Patient Fusion portal, where patients can access their own personal health records.”
