DocsInk.com Secures Nearly $1,000,000 in Series A Round to Power Healthcare Communication
Wilmington NC (PRWEB) January 14, 2014
DocsInk’s innovative platform and mission statement to eliminate the clinical silos plaguing the health care industry helped them secure nearly $ 1,000,000 in series A funding. David Edmonds, Executive for the privately held venture capital group, states, “The market dictated our desire to invest in mobile healthcare technology. After reviewing many and considering few, DocsInk was chosen for their exclusive ability to address the major challenges facing every medical provider, patient, and health care organization today, with their simple facebook-style application.”
DocsInk LLC, based in Wilmington, North Carolina, is one of the few technology companies who spent the time and money to work alongside physicians to develop a solution that benefits both patient and provider. Shadowing a large group of interventional cardiologists located in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the DocsInk team initially began by tackling the issues of poor clinical communications and faltering revenue cycles due to the loss of charges for services performed in the hospital or ambulatory surgery units. Since the successful alpha, beta and release of the resulting mobile charge capture solution, DocsInk customers continue to benefit from an improved workflow, average 15% increase in revenue, and 75% reduction in billing cycles. This, however, was just the beginning.
The real DocsInk story centers on their development of a facebook-style, coordinated care platform. Through an approved “Share-Care” process, disparate providers are securely connected regardless of their technology systems, without the need of costly interfaces. Entire community care teams are connected for the purpose of communicating about a shared patient population. At risk patients are re-engaged through the use of DocsInk’s integrated telehealth video component.
This type of broad connectivity quickly improves continuity of care and eliminates unnecessary redundancy of treatment that is largely responsible for the high cost of health care today. DocsInk also serves as the mobile vehicle for clinical alerts including those received from health information exchanges and increasingly popular home health devices. Providers and case managers are instantly notified of pertinent clinical information and abnormal results, literally changing the speed of which health care is delivered.
The DocsInk application also automates admission and discharge notifications, manages referral requests, allows secure text messaging, and provides ICD10-ready mobile charge capture, and a secure patient portal. The combination of this functionality on an integrated platform sets DocsInk apart from other competitive solutions. Just as importantly, their low price point makes it a viable commodity for single practitioners and large health systems alike.
A lead physician from a major ACO was quoted as saying, “DocsInk is the long awaited solution that affordably addresses the issues facing health care today. It is technology that actually works for physicians, instead of just one more concession that we have to make.”

Perimeter Security Market (Intrusion Detection Sensor, Video Surveillance, Access Control System) 2018 Forecasts in a New Research Report at RnRMarketResearch.com
Dallas, Texas (PRWEB) January 14, 2014
A perimeter is the boundary that divides the assets from the exterior world. The intention of deploying perimeter security solutions is to protect the infrastructure from the external threats such as vandalism, diversion, sabotage and other criminal acts. These systems assist to deter, detect, deny, delay and defend unauthorized access to the assets within the perimeter. Perimeter security is divided into physical security for buildings, infrastructure, and grounds; and logical security for computer networks. The physical security aspect has been covered in this report. Outdoor perimeter security is frequently-neglected, but it can considerably improve the efficiency of any infrastructure’s security system.

Defense and Government, transportation facilities, critical infrastructure, commercial facilities, sensitive areas and others are the verticals which have been taken into consideration in the report. In 2013, critical infrastructure vertical accounts for the highest market share. This is followed by defense and government vertical. It is expected that in 2018, this same trend will continue.
The commercial facilities and sensitive areas verticals are expected to have higher CAGR in the forecast period. Few high growth markets in the critical infrastructure vertical are -
Nuclear power stations
Utilities such as water, oil and gas, electric
Chemical and petro-chemical facilities
Industrial facilities and manufacturing plants
Critical infrastructure vertical will account for the largest market share throughout the forecast period. However, there are few revenue pockets, namely commercial facilities and transportation facilities that will witness significant growth in this period.
Majority of the challenges in this market are specific to the application environment of the sensor technology. These are related to the high nuisance/ false alarm rates (FAR). It the solutions have higher FAR, the security personals tend to loose trust in the system.

Few of global assumptions include political, economic, social, technological and economic factors. For instance, exchange rates, one of the economic factors, are expected to have a moderate rating of impact on this market.

KEI Honors Korean American Leaders in Business and Entrepeneurship
Washington, DC (PRWEB) January 13, 2014
The Korea Economic Institute of America (KEI) hosted its seventh annual Korean American Day celebration, a high-level gathering of public and private sector leaders from across the United States on January 13, 2014.
As part of the ceremony, KEI recognizes prominent Korean Americans that have made significant contributions to the United States and to the global community. At this year’s celebration, KEI President & CEO Donald Manzullo recognized 2008 Korean American Day Shinae Chun, former Director of the Women’s Bureau at the U.S. Department of Labor, who passed away in October 2013. KC Chun and Toby Chun, husband and son of Shinae, read the congressional resolution marking January 13 as Korean American Day.
This year’s celebration honored leaders in business and entrepreneurship:
Simon Lee, Founder of STG Inc.
Michael Yang, Co-Founder of mySimon.com and Become.com
Sarah Paiji, Co-Founder of Snapette
During a panel with ABC7’s Kathy Park, the honorees spoke about their background and experience as well as offered advice for aspiring entrepreneurs. While Simon Lee of STG discussed the importance of perseverance, and to “never give up”; all panelists agreed that in order to be truly successful, one must take risks.
The taking of risks was noted by Keynote Speaker Sean Mulvaney of the Export-Import Bank of the United States who stated:
“Each of today’s awardees have taken risks and overcome adversity. Each has demonstrated tremendous business acumen in generating ideas and taking them to market successfully. In short, you have modeled the way for your peers in the Korean American community.”
U.S. Congressman Mike Kelly also congratulated the honorees on their successes and highlighted how the Republic of Korea and the United States are so close not only as nations, but as peoples.
This was echoed by Republic of Korea Ambassador Ahn Ho-young who looked forward to learning from the three honorees and discussed how they are contributing towards the next cycle of the 60 years alliance between the United States and Republic of Korea.
While each of the honorees discussed their plans for the future, they also talked about the challenges that they faced.
After much personal tragedy, Simon Lee emphasized how he was able to draw strength from his hardship. Having lost his parents at an early age, he attributes his achievements to his older brother who provided funding for his early education. Discussing the importance of hard work, Mr. Lee said that when he first moved to the United States, he felt that eight hours a day of work was not giving enough and that is how he began to create STG.
As one of the first Korean Americans to create a successful dot com company, Michael Yang co-founded mySimon.com, later acquired by CNET, and also co-founded Become.com, an e-commerce website. Raising the challenges that potential entrepreneurs face, he noted just how difficult it is to succeed as a startup. Some of these challenges include raising capital and finding people with the right skills. Even then, successful startups are unlikely to either go public or be bought out.
Emphasizing how mobile technology and social media are changing the shape of business, Sarah Paiji brought up how she worked to build a company servicing an untapped market. While Yelp and other on-line sources help provide reviews for restaurants or other products, Snapette helps match consumer interests with available products and potential sales.
One interesting insight on how entrepreneurship is evolving is the growing role of social media in venture capitalism. While at Harvard Business School, Ms. Paiji was reached via Twitter by a prominent venture capitalist who had wanted to make her tweet a reality. After making a trip to Silicon Valley to meet with prospective investors, she decided to pursue her passion in what she described as “the best job I could ever have.”
Other attendees of the celebration included: Ambassador Glyn Davies, Deputy Assistant Secretary James Zumwalt and Herndon Council Member Grace Han Wolf.

When asked about this potential change in investment strategy, Dennis Zedrick, Chairman of Z-Acquisition Group, said “There is no plotline change here.” When pressed further on the topic, the no-nonsense executive added “Z-Group has always worked in the very small business space, the area where most private equity, and M&A guys don’t want to play. The majority of the work in that area has always entailed building marketing programs for startups and rebuilding marketing and sales teams for the distressed companies we acquire. We have had our in-house marketing and coding teams in place for 6 years now, and they have been servicing companies in our portfolio, some foreign operations, and various pro bono deals we get pulled into doing,” stated Zedrick. “So we put a great brand name on a team that already existed, and now they can go and service other small businesses that need help with revenue.”
