Hi Greg Apologies for delay in reply - just now checking my list email. An expression of my busy-ness.
Not sure if the close proximity is the reason for success. Not sure if MO support is greater or less for others, suffice to say our experience is a good one and we have developed a relationship with them over time and we do get good support. But if MO are in fact 'looking after their own back yard', well I am happy to take advantage. The following are valid comments - we were not looking to create something new but rather to plug in to existing infrastructure and technologies - let the experts do their job, we can simply plug in - MO already had established connectivity to over 90% of practices in our area no need to for us to do any leg work - at the time we made the decision to move our CEO made a clear decision to move forward with Medical Objects as opposed to other providers - they already had partnerships with important stakeholders, including QLD Health, which was good for us for Discharge summary connectivity with public hospitals - We need all solution provider to continue to develop and build larger pockets of users. This will make them viable, keep them honest, ensure long term evolution and maturity of their products and provide the market with choice and balance. regards Ian -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Greg Twyford Sent: Tuesday, 1 May 2007 11:30 AM To: General Practice Computing Group Talk; IMIT ADGP LIST; NSW IM&T Officer List Subject: Re: [GPCG_TALK] RE: [division-imit] RE: [IMITPolicy] argus vs. MedicalObjects Ian Ludowyke wrote: > Reply to all in case anyone else wants this info. > > > > We have an extensive Medical Objects (MO) deployment at our Division and > it is very very easy and very very successful.

Ian, That's very encouraging. I know from my contact with Andrew McIntyre that the largest deployment of MO is in Southern Queensland, centred on Buderim where he is located. Am I right in concluding that you've been fortunate to be just down the road? I think that both Argus and MO will develop larger pockets of users and that eventually word will spread and uptake will grow, with any luck.
