…. For some rather strong (but merited) language from our own BRD. Pretty much EVERY digital health initiative over the last 20 years has come to the same sordid end - hamstrung from within and without by politics, incompetence and the old ‘solution in search of a problem’ syndrome … but they do keep trying. I know a few Linkers have been involved with these efforts over the last few years, and having worked (at the periphery) of government IT myself for a few years appreciate how things can, and most often do, disappear up the bureaucratic fundament in a disastrous implosion of time, money and effort on ever increasing numbers of government IT projects … but you'd think they would learn! Just my 2 cents worth … --- _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
