That's a "burning platform". The correct solution to this kind of problem is government backed centralized system for all doctors. Like in Estonia: http://eng.e-tervis.ee/overview.html http://eng.e-tervis.ee/overview.html . Sooner or later all countries will have this kind of solutions in place and unfortunately DrChrono will lose.
It works in Estonia so that all doctors are _forced_ to use that system, which results to a wonderful end result where _every_ doctor has access to _all_ data there is about you 24/7 - so for example when you lie unconcius on the street, 911 knows all your allergies, illnesses and treatments, everything that every doctor has ever written about you etc in that second.
- arethuza 16y agoThat approach might work in somewhere the size of Estonia - but large centralized IT projects have been a bit of a disaster for the UK NHS: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8397854.stm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8397854.stm The chances of it being made to work by the government for somewhere like the US are pretty small.
