How might a handheld, computerized (PDA) ‘to-do’ list help you become a better organizer?

In healthcare delivery, there’s a lot riding on the details. With so many patients to see and so much time pressure during the day, it can be difficult to track the multitude of follow-up calls that need to be made, reports completed, orders placed, and so on.

Having a easy-to-use To Do List, with the ability to link contacts and phone numbers to individual to do items, can be a tremendous asset in the battle to keep up.  Some doctors use PDAs to keep track of tasks associated with different parts of their personal and professional lives, and critical follow-up actions.
