|---|---|
| Software Engineer | 2007 ‐ Present |
| Primary responsibilities include the design and implementation of clinical applications for use within Boston Medical Center's health care network. This also includes the maintenance of legacy systems as well as managing projects meant to rewrite such applications with the latest technology. Secondary responsibilities include helping to maintain and write applications/forms for Sunrise Clinical Manager and Centricity EMRs. Projects utilized a combination of languages including C#/.Net 2.0/3.5/4.0, PHP, jQuery, Javascript, and Ajax, as well as design patterns such as MVC, Factory, and Inversion of Control. | |
Notable accomplishments:
- Many projects that utilized GE’s Clinical Information Exchange (CIE), including, a fully functioning set of WCF web services, based on IHE ITI 7.0 standards, meant to consume and insert data from and to the CIE, which for use by in‐network applications servicing BMC and its CHCs.
- An immunization tallying and tracking application, VaxViewer, utilizing the CIE for data, meant to be accessible in all of BMC’s EMR solutions, SCM, Centricity, and Ibex, as well as all CHC’s with minimal configuration changes.
- Developed “Proof of Concept” application to demonstrate the use of .Net/jQuery/Ajax technologies as viable portal development tools, for future use as a Physician Portal, utilizing the CIE as a data‐backend, and sporting “iTunes‐like” searching and drag‐and‐drop portlet functionality.
- A tracking and assignment application, CoCare, meant to be used by nurses, physicians, radiologists, and lab techs to track the locations, assignments, and various laboratory and radiological results of patients around the hospital, with paging services integrated for easy communications between clinicians.
- A rewrite of BMC’s Online Benefits application, originally written in .Net 1.0 and utilizing direct SAP ABAP calls for back‐end data; rewritten in .Net 4.0 with a back‐end of WCF‐service interactions to SAP and with an effort to make updates to the application front‐end more maintenance‐friendly given the constantly changing requirements of health benefits.
