The expansion of a unique system for medical, epidemiological, and laboratory information management is described. The system utilizes an automated, optically scanned data entry mode (OpScan), and a generalized, interactive storage and retrieval software package (MIMS). Aggregate medical, epidemiological, and laboratory information are monitored, with the permission of the locality, via telephone terminals at four sexually transmitted disease clinics. OpScan-MIMS combines an efficient, rapid, and cost-effective method for data entry with a user-friendly computer system that requires no specialized training in computer language.
