Hospital Comfort

My recent visits to our local ED was surprising in one way. The hospital made wireless Internet available for free. That meant when I was waiting in the ED I could surf for the 11 hours I was there.

It is true that SAGE SOFTWARE has LAYED OFF 200 people in several departments. This is to offset the millions $ going to offshore outsourcing to Hyderbad, India for a defective product and to save several SVP’s skin. This is CONFIRMED

EMRdesigner and anybody else interested in the PDF on the Cerner / Capsule surgical suite implementation at Battle Creek, MI – can write me an email and I’ll send them a copy.

Thanks and keep up the great work.

Attended TEPR this year – first time and it will be the last. Probably the worst event I have ever been to. TEPR+ won;t change a thing. Time for theme to fold up the tent or in your words Mr. HIStalk, “put fork in it”

"Alex Scarlat, MD, the informatics doc at Trinity Health (MI), sent over a writeup on the Cerner SurgiNet and anesthesia go-live at Battle Creek Health System a few weeks ago. The anesthesia module is connected to medical devices via DataCaptor from Capsule Technologie."

Where can I find this write up?

Thanks.

[From Mr. HIStalk] It was an internal communication from the health system's Intranet, so it's not available online. He might send a copy if you get in touch with him.
