HIMSS going open source?
,----[ Quote ]
| Ed Dodds pointed me to this, and while it’s not a big story it’s a good
| indication of where we’re going.
|
| HealthCareIT News, published by Medtech Publishing in partnership with the
| HIMSS trade group, has become a Drupal shop.

A Different VistA for the NHS?
,----[ Quote ]
| As I noted earlier last year, the Open Health Tools Foundation mentioned
| above was actually co-founded by a group of organisations including NHS
| Connecting for Health. This latest move of DSS should strengthen the OHT
| Foundation enormously, and make VistA even more attractive to healthcare
| providers around the world - including the NHS. Could this be the straw that
| finally broke the proprietary camel's back in UK healthcare? What will be the
| NHS's, er, view?

Obama's Health IT Dilemma: The 'Some Dude' Problem
,----[ Quote ]
| Free and Open Source health IT Software outlined in a recent AMIA white
| paper, inherently suffers far less from the Some Dude problem than
| proprietary software does. How the Obama administration's $50 Billion
| proposal is going to deal with Some Dude, if they deal with Some Dude at all,
| will be interesting to watch.
