Just wondering if any of you know of tablet Apps that let you chart an HPI and exam for iOS or Android.

My entire career I have been charting into an EMR or using T systems templates and haven't gone into an exam room with a paper and pen since I was an MS2.

I am starting at an old school paper and pen practice next month it would be nice to chart into a tablet and be able to print... But even charting the information so you have information on your panel of patients at your fingertips would be nice.

I would find it a burden (in the literal sense) to carry around a tablet. Plus, I'd forget it in a room eventually.

Maybe, but I find that it is a bigger burden to carry about a stack of papers... If you get a nice 8 inch tablet everything is there. If they ever get google glass straightened out I will probably use that as well. Eventually I will go into an exam room looking like the robot from terminator.

Get a scribe...

No scribes here. In fact the charting burden is really minimal. This is just for my own record keeping while on shift.

Found one called H&P in the google play store that looks reasonable.
