Implementing a successful enterprise-class mobile solution is a significant challenge as many healthcare organizations and mobile solutions providers have discovered the hard way. While many vendors and healthcare organizations alike have opted for the simpler wireless-browser approach to hand-held solutions, this approach introduces numerous usability and interoperability limitations that cannot be overcome. These issues include the following: battery life reduction due to wireless use, lack of availability of data outside the wireless coverage areas, lack of cross-application context, applications requiring use of specific device functionality, poor data exchange, limited device support and substandard overall performance

IQMax has designed, built and delivered the leading mobile platform. IQPlatform facilitates the interaction of health information between systems and mobile caregivers in virtually real-time. It enables caregivers to retrieve critical information at the point of care resulting in improved quality of care delivered more efficiently and effectively. IQMax offers two distinct models to serve both the acute and ambulatory care environments. IQEnterprise is a premise-based system that allows the customer to host the entire IQPlatform and applications on-site. This model allows mid to large facilities or integrated delivery networks to act as an application service provider (ASP) and to host the IQMax applications for its network of providers. IQAnywhere is hosted at a state-of-the-art center and provides small to mid-sized clients with the ability to have IQMax applications available to them via an ASP model. IQEnterprise and IQAnywhere, built on IQPlatform, can be remotely deployed in as little as 10 days.

Unique to IQMax is its use of multimedia cards (MMC or SD cards), which allow for unlimited data storage capacity,, significantly enhancing the reliability of PDA devices. This capability provides mission-critical data protection and security. It also provides an automatic application recovery capability in the event of a device failure, a key component of a reliable, scalable, and deployable platform. The ability to prevent loss of information is critical in healthcare and is exclusively offered by IQMax.
