Open-source software may unify the medical-records realm

,----[ Quote ]
| Open-source medical software has been around for over 30 years. 
| Unless you are in healthcare IT, however, chances are you've never 
| even heard of it. But that's poised to change.
| 
| With the passage of ARRA (the American Recovery And Reinvestment 
| Act of 2009, also called the federal stimulus package), some $19 
| billion dollars have been earmarked for Medicare and Medicaid 
| technology incentives over the next five years. This program is 
| known as HITECH (PDF), short for Health Information Technology for 
| Economic and Clinical Health.
