Medical group envisions a better way
IMG is a professional association of 65 physicians
in six locations in Florida’s Sarasota and Manatee
counties. The traditional manual processes for patient
record-keeping were slow, cumbersome and prone to
error. Every lab test, for example, had to be filed by
hand into a patient’s chart. Recognizing electronic
document management as the wave of the future, IMG
administrators turned to Sage Intergy EHR and practice
management software. It adopted a Citrix Access
Gateway—set up with the assistance of HP Authorized
Business Partner Bayshore Technologies—and
searched for a complementary solution platform.
The association’s physicians had requested a monitor
in each exam room, and envisioned a system of PCs
each running three network monitors. However, IMG
executives spoke with a number of industry peers
and learned that those who’d adopted such PC
systems were dissatisfied with their choice. A thin
client solution, they reasoned, offered significant
cost, manageability and security advantages. After
considering a variety of vendor offerings, IMG
chose HP for its robust portfolio and because

The medical group acquired some 200 HP Compaq
t5730 Thin Clients with Microsoft® Windows® XP
Embedded. These are deployed in exam rooms and
check-in stations. In addition, HP t5540 Thin Clients
with Windows Embedded CE are deployed at nurses’
stations and in the front office. IMG also uses HP
printers, and each doctor’s office is equipped with
an HP Compaq dc5800 PC.

Agent and optional integrated wireless. IMG chose
XP Embedded because it supports touchscreen
capabilities and biometric security. The medical
practitioners especially appreciate how little space the
devices require, bracket-mounted to their own monitors
on physicians’ desks or mounted on exam-room walls.
The HP t5540 Thin Clients at the nurses’ stations are
equipped with Windows CE 6.0, providing a familiar
operating system and enhanced security with locked-
down user settings. In a typical day, a nurse will arrive
at work, log on to his or her Citrix-hosted desktop and
review schedules. The nurse then might log on to an
HP Compaq t5730 Thin Client in an exam room, calling
up the incoming patient’s medication lists and known
allergies to be immediately available for the doctor.
