Prior to the arrival of USB storage devices in the mainstream, all files or memory were required to be stored on floppy disks or CDs.  The USB flash drive has revolutionized how people transport data, and is now a standard for college students, business people, and even kids.  USB storage devices started popping up in the late 1990s, but have been around for quite some time.  The technology used to store data in older video game cartridges like those for the Nintendo Entertainment System is the same used for modern USB devices, but on a much larger scale. 

When CDs overtook floppy discs as the medium of choice for software, technology companies recognized that CDs were not easily rewritable (at that time) and wanted to develop a storage device to accommodate modern needs.  Thus, the USB flash drive was born.

Proponents of computerize records, say they allow doctors to share records more easily, prevent duplicate, and furnish health care providers and consumers more readily with information they need to make health decisions.  The  US Department of health services estimate that making the switch could ultimatly safe the health care industry $140, billion a year.

But wide spread adoption a paperless medical records has been very, very slow.  Congress is currently drafting a legislation aimed at speeding up the process.

A disconnected system of paper chains and lost records and stacks of files are the bane of the health care industry. But a solution is looming in the distance: an electronic system of paperless medical records. Many hospitals have already begun implementing the system, and the Bush administration has even mandated the creation of a universal digital health care record for all patients by 2014. Other companies, such as IBM, have also supported the system through donations of money and equipment.

A paperless system of records would be much easier to manage and significantly decrease the likelihood of lost records and documents. It would also be easy to access if you fall ill or are injured in another state, and your files aren’t readily available. The system would also save a significant amount of money; The Center for Information Technology estimated in 2006 that a repository for digital health care records could save the U.S. healthcare industry up to five percent on annual spending.

If you or a loved one end up in an emergency situation where you’re not conscious to let doctors or EMTs know about any medication allergies or prior existing conditions, a portable emr can be the difference between life and death.

A portable EMR (emergency medical record) will alert medics if you’re allergic to penicillin, or if you have epilepsy, and can help guide them to the correct response and form of treatment. It can also speed up the time it takes to receive treatment, and save you from waiting while doctors are pulling up files from old computers. So if you know there is something in your medical history that needs to be told, look into a portable EMR.

This may be small but it has a powerful punch.  This minature USB Portable EMR, is a real lifesaver.  Holding all your vital medical information, that can be accessed by any PCLap in an emergency.  When you are not there yet,  and they get to the ER they can start treating her, cause they had a USB Portable EMR on their person, and time is of the utmost importance.
