About Med-hok

Teleconference Management System Designed for the APAN Medical Working Group

Outline

Med-hok is a teleconference management database system specifically designed for Asia-Pacific Advanced Network (APAN) Medical Working Group. The aim is to build up and store a variety of information correctly and to make preparations for teleconferencing easier and more precise. With the potential advantages of this system, we would like to modify the current TEMDEC-centered communication style to a more independent style throughout our community, such that each institution can join and act more effectively.

When accessing Med-hok as a guest, you can check the date, time and type of past and future events, as well as which institutions joined or will join by accessing the “Past event” and “Coming event” pages. If you are a member of Med-hok, you can login your “Institution User ID” to access upcoming events that your institution will join, or to edit the member list of your institution. You can also review your institution’s activities on the “Past event” page. If you are an “Event Administrator”, you can plan events and edit programs.

We have designed Med-hok for smooth communication in telemedicine. The beta version has now been released for testing. Our aim is the Systemization of workflow for teleconferencing; to work more efficiently without errors in communication. By reaching this goal, activities of telemedicine can be carried out worldwide via the Internet.
