Latest Featured Articles As much as every physician would love to have the separation of her or his personal life and work life, the reality is that more and more doctors are blending the two. Requesting to have their work e-mail on their personal phones nowadays has become an accepted practice amongst physicians, and it is more unheard of to not have access to work and personal data on the same device given the recent expansion in the mobile market. Mitchell International, Inc., a provider of technology, connectivity and information solutions to the property and casualty claims and collision repair industries, today announced that its solution to reduce medical claims' turnaround time for work-related illnesses and injuries while adding savings and improving claims outcomes, is now available throughout Rockport Healthcare Group's provider network, according to the company's press release at marketwatch.com.

Patients themselves are asking the questions too.
