Greg,
You were asking about transmission rates. We have sent 8500 consultation
summaries via MO from our GP After Hours service (GPAAH). We are also
sending from our Allied Health provider (Work Injury Unit). 250 GPs are
installed to date. We will have installed 300 by the end of June.
Chris.

Chris,
That's very impressive. That's an average of 32 summaries per MO
connected GP. You guys are very busy indeed. Have you surveyed the GPs
at all, or have less-formal feedback about their satisfaction level,
though connecting an extra 50 in the next month probably says it all.
Will you be buying the local hospitals off the state government anytime
soon? Or making a bid for Primary Health?

Is the Australian clinical messaging marketplace large enough to sustain
Argus and MO?
It looks as though the GP market will be broken up into regional
affiliations, to which I have no strong objection as long as the
products can and do talk to one another.

Hi Greg Apologies for delay in reply - just now checking my list

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
