Daniela Harder commented on Daniela Harder's blog post Assignment One: Use of Electronic forms in Cancer MDMs"SMT is used for a number of areas in the hospital. It is not the most sophisticated tool (when comparing it to the software used in the MATE paper that you linked to as well), but we are piloting to see if it meets the current needs in this…"
"SMT is something new to me, would be keen to know more about it when available. Yes, results of the meeting are only typed via Sorapno MedDocs. MDM notes are brought to the meeting but considered helpful for the attendees. Is the project an MDM…"
