AusHealthIT Poll Number 131 – Results – 23rd July, 2012.

The question was:
Was The NEHRS / PCEHR Made Available For Public Use Before It Was Properly Tested And Ready?
No - It Was Ready
-  4 (8%)
Possibly
 - 1 (2%)
Probably
 - 1 (2%)
Yes - It Was Not Ready
 - 39 (86%)
Votes : 45
A very clear response with close to 90% or so saying they were not ready. Shows just how silly doing this sort of project driven by political deadlines.
Again, many thanks to those that voted!

presumably the 4 who said it was ready work for DoHA or NeHTA? Only someone on the payroll would possibly think this thing was ready...

You have got to be kidding. We at DoHA/NeHTA are in the best position to know exactly how unready it was!!

It's the same project methodology and life cycle as Queensland Health Payroll!
