QuantiaMD is offering members free access to its interactive physician community though a new iPhone application.
The new offering will allow physicians to launch interactive presentations and clinical updates, respond to surveys, participate in case studies, complete CME activities, quickly post and review comments and ratings and even refer content to peers.
"QuantiaMD on the iPhone is an amazing application that provides my doctors access to our educational programs wherever they are," said Michael Wagner, MD, chief of General Internal Medicine at Tufts Medical Center in Boston.
According to recent research, more than half of all healthcare professionals own a PDA or smartphone; that number is expected to increase to more than 70 percent by 2011.
"QuantiaMD's availability on the iPhone means that I will be able to treat my patients more effectively," said Tanveer Aslam, MD, a practitioner of internal medicine in Dyersburg, Tenn. "I have access to so much critical information about particular diseases and case studies, and happily I'm now liberated from my desk. The quality of the presentations on the iPhone are so crisp that it's almost as though my colleagues are there with me – whether I'm in a treatment room, out of the office or traveling."
QuantiaMD is free to validated healthcare practitioners and also available for the iPod touch, BlackBerry and Windows Mobile devices and online.
