Hello Mike and L'ers,
Backing up the eMAR on the DR is a good idea, but does not solve the network downtime. If the network goes down, you will not be able to reach the eMAR on the DR. Mprint Server is independent of your network. With eMAR stored on a local PC in each dept/ward, even if the network is down you can print the eMAR to a local printer. Network downtime is a more common downtime then MEDITECH going down. Please visit our website at www.interbitdata.com <http://www.interbitdata.com/> and under downloads, you can install a FREE trial version of Mprint Server. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me. Oscar Beninati Director of Sales Interbit Data Inc. 10 W.

We pull eMAR data from DR via a report. It updates about every 10 minutes. Nursing units have an eMAR downtime report icon mapped onto their desktops. In the event of a planned or unplanned downtime they simply click on the icon and print their downtime eMAR. Documentation is recorded on this report and then once we are back online they "catch" up electonically. We also FTP an NPR report as a back up but it is much slower than DR.

We're in the process right now of developing our downtime plans for e-MAR as we plan to go LIVE with it in the ED next month. We plan to use Automate to script the e-MAR and some other reports to run and download every 30 minutes to an hour. I'd like to know what others are doing. Please post. Gloria J.

We are Magic 5.5 SR3. Using Meditech's FTP routine, we've been able to spool the MAR to a PC hard-drive but the report scheduling routine does not seem to allow hourly or semi-hourly scheduling. How have others resolved the need for frequent backup?
