Hi, Thank you very much for all your compliments.
With regard to accounting there is mixed feeling in this part of the world too. Most of them use accounting systems recommended by their respective auditors. I have seen weberp too which will be useful for medium and large hospitals. I have checked out ck-erp which is an open source erp (but runs only on linux). But the best part is it runs within a Content Management System (CMS). CMS's like Tikiwiki has a built in workflow engine (Galaxia) which is quiet good. If we could somehow make these three work it will be an ideal solution for small/medium hospitals. For large hospitals to compete with the saps and siemens of the world, it all depends on which framework we are going to adapt for 3rd generation care2x. If we adapt J2EE's Spring Framework we could utilise jBPM, Intalio or YAWL which are very good. It is my personal opinion that a J2EE framework will yield better results. Because we could integrate quiet a few stable proven healthcare solutions following the HL7 and IHE framework. Like dcm4chee as pacs, o3rws for Radiology workstation and ImageJ for imaging. For ERP we could turn to openbravo or opentaps which are quiet mature.
