News: MMC Election
Abstractsmedical_news writes "Nashik-based surgeon Vasant Pawar, elected the Maharashtra representative in the Medical Council of India at the end of its polls on Friday, pledged to improve the standard of health education in the state. Dr Pawar (59), who bagged 7,911 of the total 15,690 votes, said, “There is a major shortage of medical teachers.” As representative, he promised to propose to the MCI and the state government to increase the capacity of postgraduate students in a bid to improve teachers’ numbers. “Currently, there is a migration of medical teachers from one college to another and one state to another. If we don’t take prompt action, our teachers will migrate abroad,’’ he observed. A general surgeon from Nashik, Dr Pawar said his main focus would be on “implementing the honorary system in medical colleges.’’ He held that though not mandatory, all doctors should become members of the Indian Medical Association, as it would assure delivery of improved healthcare and also give more security to them. Candidates allege rigging in polls Some of the candidates have protested against the electoral procedure followed in the MCI polls and even alleged rigging. “There was foul play even in the counting process. Some of the ballots were white-inked indicating that they had been tampered with,’’ alleged Dr Shrikant Pandit from J J Hospital, who contested the elections. Director of medical education and research Dr W B Tayade, the incharge of the polls, denied the allegations. “From the declaration of the elections to the declaration of results, there has been absolutely no deviation from the MCI Act,’’ claimed Dr Tayade."

Adverts: Desert Radiologists Implements MedInformatix RIS
AbstractsAnonymous writes "LAS VEGAS — June 15, 2006 — Desert Radiologists has successfully implemented the MedInformatix RIS. MedInformatix was selected as the vendor of choice over Siemens, RisLogic, General Electric, and others. The Proof of Concept agreement between the two companies is viewed as state of the art.

Desert Radiologists was founded in 1966 by Drs. Robert Taylor, Harris Knudson, James Lum, and has grown with the Las Vegas Community to become the area's chief resource for the highest quality diagnostic care. The practice currently comprises 44 radiologists with five more scheduled to join the group in the next few months. The practice provides service for five hospitals and four large integrated health delivery systems. Desert Radiologists has nine outpatient facilities and anticipates adding additional centers to serve the area’s rapidly growing population. The site currently reads approximately one million studies a year making it one of the largest in North America.

To improve its efficiency, Desert Radiologists contracted with MedInformatix in 2005 for an ambitious project: implementation of the revered Proof of Concept installation which will take the entire enterprise to the next level. With this technology, no matter where data is obtained, e.g. an image, a charge, transcription, etc., it is delivered to a centralized location. Design development will help drive the workflow with the object to control all key indicators associated with workflow tasks pushing the database through algorithms.

Thomas McGonigle, Chief Executive Officer at MedInformatix, stated that “We are very fortunate to add Desert Radiologists to our list of clients. They are a first class organization. We are privileged to have a partner with similar market goals. The contract is significant, not only in terms of dollars, but more importantly, the team atmosphere that brings Desert Radiologist and our engineers into the future." Mr. McGonigle went on to summarize some of the key areas of development:

 Macro Design Concept that will enable Database to assist Entire Infrastructure – Items will appear on the desktops of the organization’s staff to help stream line workflow.
 Authorization, Transcription, Film, Mammography, and Biopsy Tracking.
 Downloads for Existing Transcription Reports, Current Film Locations, and Patient Demographics.
 Fax Preps directly to Referring Providers and Patients.
 RIS to RIS and PACS to PACS Interfaces.
 Capability to load Modalities from Desert Radiologist’s RIS to Hospital’s RIS.
 Centralized Dictation.
 Quality Control Procedures.
 Wet Read Notification.
 Send Images from Hospital PACS to E-Med.
 Phone System Connectivity including Tight Integration with Mytel.

Founded in 1994, MedInformatix is a privately held corporation that provides radiology practices with a comprehensive, single database RIS solution. MedInformatix is the leader in RIS/PACS integration.

Adverts: Charities supported by cashback shopping
AbstractsAnonymous writes "Cashback Rewards is a new online shopping mall which lets shoppers choose how much of their cashback or commission to donate to charity.
Cashback Rewards offers shoppers the chance to shop online with leading retailers and earn some of the commission that the site generates from these sales. Shoppers can then choose to donate some or all of this cashback commission to charity.

There is no charge to the charity or the shopper for sharing this cashback as a donation. Indeed, shoppers are asked if they wish to make the donation via Gift Aid, boosting its value. In addition the site owners add 10% to each donation made through the site.

Cashback Rewards gives between 50% and 95% of the participating merchants' commission payment to the customer. The site's owners say that amounts of cashback generated "will vary from a few pence for doing a search on a search engine to £100+ with some retailers".

Charities interested in benefiting from this cashback can contact the site now in the run-up to its projected launch on 1 October 2006. Cashback Rewards say that "members active at this time should be receiving their first payout in time for Christmas."

When the site goes live, charities will be able to register using the Charity Registration Page, which will have to be completed by an official charity representative.

Charities will be able to view their own account, keeping track of all donations made to the charity, as well as who made the donation (unless the member wishes to donate anonymously), and their Gift Aid declaration if they made one. Charities will be able to print the latter directly from the account.

Participating charities will be given their own web page on the shopping site which they can edit and keep up to date via an online control panel.

Cashback Rewards asks that participating charities include a link on their site to the shopping site, which would make sense anyway as part of the scheme's promotion to supporters.
