Hi, we are currently using microsoft access for data collection and need something else. What computer data collection and management computer programs is anyone using and would you recommend them? Thanks

Hello. Well, there is always Filemaker, if you want a different relational database program. Some sites are moving to Web-based systems, but you'd probably want to interface with your hospital IT department for a program recommendation that would fit with your facility's equipment/system.

You didn't comment on why you find Access no longer acceptable. Is it a data entry time issue? Or are you dissatisfied with its analytical capabilities? Or something else altogether? Tim Cousounis, MDvantage Palliatice Care Group tcousounis@digital-action.com
