Patient Care Enhanced by Linux Solution 

,----[ Quote ]
| Even as health care costs grow, hospitals and health care centers are 
| constantly looking for ways to cut operating expenses. The cynical would say 
| this is just to increase their profit margins, but that is not always the 
| case. Some hospitals need to cut back  to avoid layoffs, or closing a 
| cutting-edge facility, or just survive in a world where patients who have 
| insurance can often pick and choose which hospital they are admitted, and the 
| patients who don't may not be able to foot their own medical bills in a 
| timely manner.
