Hi,
can I remind the list that copying from Outlook and pasting into the
progress notes in MD2 triggers an error where content of that patient's
progress notes are duplicated in the progress notes of other patients
seen the same day. This can be avoided by copying a single space " "
from Outlook and pasting into MD2. Or by switching to a different
program! I don't know if people have the same problem with MD3. I've
never had it with Genie, but it has happened more than once with MD2.
regards,

Outlook won't use HeSA certificates.
For the recipient, the letters/reports don't appear in the EHR holding
file.
This makes the use of Outlook too clunky and unworkable.
Outlook (v2K-2K3) certainly can use HESA certificates, location and
individual.
Email from Outlook theoretically can be imported into MD through Letter
Writer (but last time I tried it, couldn't get it to work) but
certainly not
automatically. Don't know about the other EHRs - fairly certain
automation
doesn't happen with any of them.
Outlook wouldn't have a clue with HL7 and cannot send HL7 acks and also
presents many security risks therefore making it impractical for
clinical
use.
Thunderbird can cope with location certificates and is a bit more
secure.
Eudora can cope with location certificates. Neither of these can
generate
automatic acks and appropriate HL7.
That is where Argus comes in for those who wish to use SMTP for
communications.
