Les Good idea, but then we need to include things like practice accrediation etc. for specxialists as well.

To some extent I'm sure it's a random thing. Oliver may have more success, but I think some overall funding to motivate everyone would help. How many GPs would be clinical computer users without the 7 years of PIP incentives and the support from Divisions, especially during 1999-2001? A group of cardiologists in Western Sydney is setting up to send and receive reports/referrals securely. In that case the shoe will be on the other foot. Similarly, Medical objects has been sponsored and initiated by the gastroenterologists at Buderim. Argus, on the other hand. was initiated by a consortium led by Top End Division and got some government money, only they've forgotten why they. there are other examples.
