This is a good size facility for sure and again as noted in the title here, patients can see the exact same information as the physician in real time whether it’s their chart or perhaps other educational information that would be relative.  There are 72 provider offices and over 350 physicians and staff members.  They are right with the dual screens though as far as engaging the patient.  I don’t know if they do this out side of California but here they use Bloom Box fuel Cells for energy just as Google and EBay do.  image

A while back I had the chance to interview one of their physicians from the Atlantic region and our focus was on how the electronic medical records helped her with giving better care in her area of pediatrics.

Last year they also opened this state of the art center in the DC area which is also a learning center and a nice video to watch and see what they do.  In addition here in California outside of Bakersfield they now have a mobile unit that also goes around to offer primary care services and it is connected to the medical records system so everything done is documented on the spot.  BD
