Unit 1 - Using online dictionaries

This is the article that I found

Medical Informatics Engineering Announces Collaboration with Google Health


The Minimally Invasive(TM) WebChart electronic health record portfolio from MIE will be fully integrated with Google Health, and enable consumers and physicians to share information electronically. MIE products are completely Web-based, giving physicians secure, anytime/anywhere access to patient records without significant up-front investment. In addition, WebChart is tailored to fit the workflow of each practice and each physician, minimizing practice upheaval.

And the link its: http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0EIN/is_2008_March_7/ai_n24379063

and here are the word that I choose from it:

Workflow: Pronunciation (wûrk'flō')

  1. The flow or progress of work done by a company, industry, department, or person.
  2. The rate at which such flow or progress takes place. This is the concept that i was looking for

Upheaval: Pronunciation :( əp-hē-vəl,)

Date: 1838

1: the action or an instance of upheaving especially of part of the earth's crust
2: extreme agitation or disorder: radical change; also: an instance of this. For me This is the one that its talking in the article

My opinion about the article is:
I Think its very important to publish the information about the Medical Informatics Engineering so we can know the upgrades of it using Google health, Google health gives patients the ability to collect, store and manage their medical records online.
