Medsphere Systems Corp., whose OpenVista electronic health record is based on the architecture of the Department of Veterans Affairs' VistA EHR, has released a mobile version of the technology called Mobile OpenVista Enterprise, or MOVE.
With secure and real-time access to patient data wherever a clinician has Wi-Fi or cellular coverage, officials say MOVE – which includes Medsphere's NoteAssist patient documentation system – allows physicians and nurses to review medication orders and record patient information on the go.

"Without doubt, healthcare IT is moving toward mobility and enhanced, streamlined processes," said Medsphere President and CEO Irv Lichtenwald in a statement. "Medsphere is excited about moving OpenVista in that same direction."
On March 17, Medsphere also announced an expansion of it products and services since its recent mergers with Phoenix Health Systems and MBS/Net. Phoenix Health continues to integrate its infrastructure support and application management skills with Medsphere's offerings. Meanwhile, MBS/Net's technology, such as physician practice management system and ambulatory EHR, are being integrated with OpenVista, officials said.
