How are PTS and ABC accessible throughout the hospital?
Any terminal services client PC on the same LAN can access PTS or ABC. This is useful with our optional Order Entry sub-system, which allows ancillary units or the floors to request their own trips online. We are currently developing browser based versions of ABC and PTS which will result in fast application execution, low bandwidth requirements, low maintenance burden, client platform independence and easy user accessibility. PTS and ABC can accept HL7 formatted information directly from the hospital mainframe systems through your HL7 gateway. Both product offerings can send alphanumeric pages directly to transporters, housekeepers, managers, bed controllers, pharmacy, dietary, and any other service providers. There is also an Interactive Voice Response (IVR) component for both systems, called Automated Dispatch Plus (AD+). With this feature, users can access PTS and ABC from any phone.
