Re: OT: Suggestions for database for physicians patient records?

Before you go throwing together a solution, you need to check the laws
in your state and country.  Here in the US there are laws that say how
patient data can be stored.  There are compliant software packages for
Dr's and Hospitals that include everything they need including stuff
like medical billing.

Some of the newer systems also support the wireless tablet computers
that the Dr's and Nurses carry from room to room.

Just keep in mind, you are handling people's private information, so
security is your #1 priority.

Absolutely correct. In addition, the cost/overhead of running this all in-house for such a small office doesn't necessarily make sense. It would be beneficial to look at online services that do exactly this. In most cases access is through a light weight Win32 client, or simply a browser.
