The work underway in Mendocino is explicitly user driven. We start from Clinician and Medical Records workflows. We don't move forward until we have a compelling solution that meets the shared needs of both of these user categories. Echoing Wayne's comment, we do not allow the vendor-centric HIMSS framework to over-engineer the process. Insufficiently simple solutions create an enterprise barrier to sustainability.
