Webahn debuts voice, EMR iPhone apps

Healthcare IT software developer Webahn has launched two new iPhone applications for physicians: Capzule for Webahn's online EMR service, Capzule.com; and Accent, a voice recording application for the firm's online transcription service OvernightScribe.com.

Capzule enables physicians to access patient information while away from the clinic and has the capability to send messages, add notes, prescribe medications and write orders, the Lathrup Villiage, Mich.-based firm said.

Accent allows physicians to dictate patient notes and letters on an iPhone and send them to OvernightScribe.com for transcription. Accent also lets users edit audio files and tag dictations with key information and has the capability to access dictations from desktop PCs over WiFi, Webahn said.
