Throughout the process of comparing medical office management software that serves medical professionals by streamlining the administrative, billing, transaction and service management processes of their businesses, the key features and core functions of physician versus acute care hospitals were analyzed. The results of the analysis are provided in this report. Dominating both are rapid advances in support for tablet PCs, smartphones and all other forms of mobility devices, as these devise are showing significant potential to increase the accuracy and time savings of complex tasks in each type of business (Bellini, Bruno, Cenni, et.al., 2012). Analysis of Medical Office Management Software There are significant differences in how software companies design applications for physicians' practices versus those used in acute care hospitals. The most significant differences exist in the core functional areas of the applications, in addition to the specific workflows supported across multi-departmental workflows. Medical office management software used in acute care hospitals have more features specifically designed to optimize compliance of reporting, transactions and post-treatment service to patients. These applications also have more of a focus on supporting multinational health compliance requirements, as many times acute care hospitals will have patients from other nations in addition to its own. The acute hospitals also require a much more precise approach to scheduling physicians, nursing staff, and emergency room technicians as well (Bellini, Bruno, Cenni, et.al., 2012). Acute hospitals therefore have a much more project-based approach to managing their human resources, and often must deal with rapidly changing constraints over time, expertise and availability of equipment as well. From this context, acute care hospitals have a much more linear programming-based problem than physicians' practices; there must be greater orchestration of all available resources with respect to their constraints for a given acute care hospital to excel in their service to patients. This level of project-based analysis and linear-programming based constraint modeling of resources is not nearly as real-time and triage-based in applications designed for physician's practices as it is for acute care hospitals. Applications designed for acute care hospitals however are leading the industry in adoption of mobility and the use of HTML5-based applications that streamline patient onboarding, diagnosis, treatment, triage, and ongoing treatment programs. There is also more of an emphasis on continual Business Process Re-engineering (BPR) and the ability to literally change a process within minutes to reflect the needs of a triage unit or acute care facility (Bellini, Bruno, Cenni, et.al., 2012). As time is often the most valuable resource that an acute care hospital has, the ability to quickly modify processes and systems to better save a patients' life becomes a very high IT priority as well. Based on this analysis it is apparent how critical the optimizing of the entire acute care hospital processes, systems and strategies are for saving a person's life. The ability to optimize each of the various systems necessary for implementing life-saving care and treatment dominates the medical office management software in this area.

In the contemporary world, most companies apply the use of energy to plan, manage, and execute their operations in accordance with the demands of the market and the industry. The main aim of this management control system (MCS) is to reduce the cost of energy footprint of UTS in Building 3. UTS must first develop the energy baseline in order to determine what to change in relation to future efficiency measure. The company needs to identify fixed and variable factors or energy applications.Energy that goes into running of production and other activities within the building is variable energy usage.
