Maybe, but the fact is that much healthcare software is hardly fit for duty.
How do we explain the fact that despite the continuing application of
Moore's law, most of the systems we have today are not much better than the
best of those put in 25 years ago? Interestingly, 25 years ago people did
evaluate what they did (e.g. the NIH evaluations of El Camino and Larry
Weed's PROMIS system, not to mention the evaluations done of the Dutch BAZIS
system and the UK Experimental Projects).
Does anyone know of a really good example of a paperless hospital?
