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.
Ian,
Yep, having 90% of practices in your area with MO capacity is a huge
advantage, let alone the other reasons that you've outlined.
Chris Scott at Hunter Urban is rolling out MO and is very enthusiastic.
I'm waiting to here about transmission rates as their GPs and
specialists start to use it in earnest.
In Chris's case, having an established IT support unit in their
Division, plus their high commitment and resources for IM&T should make
it happen pretty easy.
I only wish most of us were as well-resourced.
Greg
