Newport News, VA - October 11, 2006 –– Inmates are the only people in the country with a constitutional guarantee to quality healthcare. Yet mortality rates in correctional facilities from diabetes, hypertension, and asthma are abnormally high. During medical history interviews with physicians, nurses and supporting staff, an inmates’ personal lack of knowledge of their own physical conditions can lead to inadequate and incomplete medical history data. In various prisons, the physicians and nurses roles as note takers has been eliminated and replaced by using The PrimeCare Patient Management System bilingual electronic interview modules. The inmate answers the questions in the each module then the System generates a report containing the inmate's current problems, medications and allergies, all positive and significant negative subjective responses, vital signs, and a list of the diagnostic considerations and differential diagnoses. The report is available online only to the institution’s physicians and nurses allowing them to rapidly respond to an inmate’s medical emergencies.

Each physician can process two or more additional inmates an hour using the PrimeCare Patient Management System. The completed modules and subsequent reports give more hands-on time for diagnostic assessment and treatment saving time and money, and is expected to save lives.

The interview modules are fully bi-lingual and can be read and answered English or Spanish. A single keystroke changes the questions and responses from/to English or Spanish.
