Clinics Switch Medical Records Systems

Week of May 25, 2009

Stateside clinics are switching to the battlefield medical recording system called MC4. The use of MC4 at battalion aid stations in the U.S. provides an EMR capability for clinics with low-to-no connectivity. The laptops and  servers used in the stateside clinics -- fielded, trained and sustained by the  MC4 program -- are the same used by medical personnel and supported by the  technical staff of signal officers (S6) and the Combat Service Support  Automation Management Office throughout Iraq,  Afghanistan  and 12 other countries worldwide. For more information about MC4, visit the MC4 website.
