Humetrix U-BeWell

Pros: U-BeWell is available in two ways: as a stand-alone program software on a portable drive, desktop, or smart card; or as an integrated solution with web based features. The company also offers Medisee, a smart phone EHR platform. All are available for public and private payers, provider systems, and HIT vendors. The product is not available to individuals.

Cons: There is no cost information on the website. Providers, etc., must contact the company for quotes.

The Bottomline: This EHR (electronic health record) system is not publicly available. Stand alone and web-based applications may be used to organize data. While users may not preview the software, it is a definite positive that it is available for desktop, smart card, USB or web-enabled cell phones.
