The author of the report states "this channel check is not inconsistent with other checks we have made on MCK and its HCIT products." The client in the report indicated that its HERM implementation process started more than a year ago, and may take another 18 months to complete. The hospital also said they are currently at HIMSS Stage 6 but that there are about seven Stage 1 criteria that the hospital still does not meet. Ouch!! Another ringing endorsement for HIMSS Analytics! Don't you need to meet all the Stage 1 criteria before you can get to Stage 2-7?? Re: McKesson report.

Is Siemens going to be outed? Allegations against Siemens were reported at Healthcare Renewal by Scot Silverstein, M.D. in a report on a lawsuit (dismissed before the allegations were heard) covering, for one matter, its lack of interest in the patient safety concerns of its employees. Are the allegations true? Who knew? Did Dillione resign from Siemens after the FDA sent its love note to the hospitals demanding to know about safety glitches? Is Siemens going to be outed?
