Home care agencies play a vital role in the healthcare
industry, with an increasing number of patients receiving
treatment at home rather than in the hospital. Not only is
home care more economical than hospitalization, but studies

in the comfort of their own homes. One of the challenges
faced by home healthcare agencies is the ability to exchange
patient information between home care providers (nurses,
therapists, and home health aides) and the agency office.
Dallas, Texas–based Homecare Homebase developed a dynamic
wireless solution using Windows Mobile software and devices
manufactured by HTC, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner.
Home care agencies using the solution report a reduction in
IT and transportation costs, increases in cash flow, and
simplified information exchange that helps improve patient
care.
