I also have some good experience as a programmer analyst in health care.
I'd be happy to lend a hand as time permits. Currently, my development
skills are used to build up a web infrasctructure for a hosptial here in
the Northwest. Doing a lot of IP based software development.

The list you recieved from Mr. Ho is a good place to start. You can also
check
out the morsel of work I've released at http://www.nationalinformatics.com.
I would suggest taking a look at your work from an infrastructure standpoint
when
reviewing the other projects . . . I find that's the biggest hurdle when you
add
someone's code to your product mix.
