The ASP model is becoming an increasingly popular way of providing clinical and administrative applications to medical offices without the costs or complexities associated with traditional client/server applications. An ASP setup allows users to gain access to software applications without the need to purchase and install them. Instead, users access the software over a secure VPN (Virtual Private Network) that utilizes the Internet as a communications channel.

Physicians and office staff connect to the applications utilizing a secure link across the Internet via VPN. This allows access to all of the features of the applications without the need to install the software at their own site. To learn more about the ASP model, download the .pdf document below.
