Adobe Air Applications for Healthcare

I have been utilizing TweetDeck and Eventbox for sometime now for aggregating information from my various social networks. Both of these applications are based upon the Adobe Air which is operating system independent and works flawlessly.

With that being said, I thought I would do some searching to see what healthcare applications are out there that utilizes Adobe Air. Unfortunately, there aren't too may healthcare companies utilizing the Adobe Air platform. The major EMR companies should really look at the AIR platform with its ability to utilize applications in an offline mode.

The one company I found that is utilzing Adobe Air, is DLC Solutions, which specializes in developing eLearning solutions. They have developed a learning system for cancer patient called ENACCT. More information on this solution can be found on the DLC Solution Blog.

Hopefully, once the Adobe Air platform becomes more mainstream we will see more EMR and Healthcare applications available. platform which is operating system independent and works flawlessly.
