INTRODUCTION

20 years ago - long before we introduced computers - we began to develop detailed manual systems for many areas of our practice; more recently we installed MedTech-32 and applied it to our existing systems.

Our Computer Manual was written piecemeal as we introduced MedTech-32 module by module and is added to and amended with new releases and as we develop new ideas. It is a training handbook for staff and a reference, especially for parts of the program used only occasionally. Obviously the manual is specific for our hardware and software configuration but most sections would have some relevance to any practice.

MedTech-32 in Practice is a summary of these ideas in a more digestible form!. Each page has a link to the relevant section of Our Computer Manual.

As you will see if you explore these pages we have developed MedTech extensively by producing OutBox Documents and Screening Terms - these are available under Downloads. But to get the most out of these tools they are best used as part of an integrated whole.

You may also want to refer to SetUp MedTech-32 for ideas and instructions for customising MedTech-32 - appointments, accounting, communication, clinical, screening, letters and forms . . . . . . . .

If you are interested in adopting and adapting some of our ideas we suggest that you introduce them a little at a time!

In return would you please share your ideas with us?
