Thank you David and I will certainly look into the Clinical Groupware Collaborative. From my brief perusal it seems as though we could learn a lot from just the initial list of those participating in the working group. I will see if we can get involved.
Relatedly, not sure if anyone in this conversation will be attending AMIA this week in San Francisco (November 14-18), but we will be presenting our current model on Monday night during the poster session and invite anyone to stop by. It would be great to get feedback on what we are piloting. Best regards, Nathan Botts HealthATM, Inc.
