It's amazing how many people can be so busy and yet have so little to show for all their efforts.

The same message "Technology is wonderful, other industries have used it very successfully, we should do the same." has been spouted for decades.

And they are right, except for one thing, the real developments have occurred in biology, medicine, genomics, biomedical engineering and pharmaceuticals etc, not in health records and interoperability.

You can always tell a Digital Health Zealot, but you can't tell them much.
