![]() ![]() ![]() The flexibility trucks provided became the solution to rail’s “last mile” delivery challenge. Trucks, on the other hand, have the flexibility to deliver smaller loads and respond faster to customer demands regardless of location. It is not possible for every business to have its own railroad siding. ![]() When it comes to energy efficiency, rail leads all modes of transportation with an astounding 473 miles per gallon per ton.īut railroads are the ultimate point-to-point solution. During the same period, efficiency improved considerably as the number of railroad employees went from the high of 533,000 to 228,000. And by 1975, the annual rail freight total was 750 billion ton-miles which doubled to 1.5 trillion ton-miles by 2005.īut impressive growth is only part of the rail story. Still, the total amount of rail freight continued to grow. At that time, railroads employed more people than any other industry except agriculture and carried more freight than all other modes of transportation combined.Īfter World War I, trucks began to take on some of what had previously been shipped by rail. The beginning of the 20 th century was the “Golden Era” of US railroads. I find the US railroad and trucking industries’ history to be analogous to the API & EDI discussion. I will use an analogy to make the case that speed, reliability, and flexibility are the ultimate goals. This requires rethinking of how managed file transfer and EDI capabilities are delivered and then merged with APIs and other enterprise integration capabilities. What has become more apparent is that business transformation projects need more flexible B2B integration solutions and faster results. The points made back then are still valid the two complement each other more than they compete. The challenge has changed as companies look to modernize capabilities and derive greater value and insight from all types of B2B interactions. In the years since we posted this, the interest and number of questions about the relationship between APIs and EDI have grown. Reports are many and detailed but would like one that gives the true net since so much is written off due to third party.Why APIs and EDI Are More Complementary Than Competitive We could do it manually but not worth the time to do it manually. Currently since we do this manually we only separate services and bulk materials. Would also like to integrate the EOBs when VSP comes in so we can post to each item. It would be nice to have it integrated with VSP billing and glasses order entry since we use VSP so much, would reduce having to double entry and reduce input errors. Like being able to track number of patients seen and for what procedure, number of frames sold and which brands/manufacuturers, what percentage of patients are attribute to which third parties, production broken down by staff/doctor. ![]() The best is that it is easy for staff to learn to use because it is intuitive. You can even email the patient their prescription and it records that this was done. IOP is charted in a graph so you can see trend without flipping back to previous visits. Of course there is an empty special testing section that you can add your own notes. For a non-niche optometry office that sees mostly glasses, contact lenses, and medical office visits the charts are clean without a lot of cluttering of every single possible test. #EASYCLOUD EDI PRO#My needs may change in the future since my colleagues are requesting this so it's nice to know that the company is not stagnant.Įye Cloud Pro is a straightforward software that gets the job done. Even though I don't use some of the features that are newly available (two way texting) I see that it is available because others have requested it so I feel like the company is responsive. I like that the system keeps a confirmation that prescriptions were released to patients. Commenti: Eye Cloud Pro has been listening and responding to consumer feedback and industry overall requirements. ![]()
