It seems likely that the Obama administration and Congress will spend a significant amount on health IT by attaching it as a first-order priority to the fiscal stimulus package … The easy solution would be to spend most of the health IT funds on EHRs. The EHR industry has made it easy by establishing a mechanism to “certify” EHR products if they incorporate certain features and functions. But the easy solution would not be the right one. EHRs still are notoriously expensive. Often, practicing physicians do not consider many of the features and functions to be useful or important.

Much to our glee, when we hooked everything up, it all came on the way it should. After a read through of the instruction manual I figured out the subtle nuances of the SE-800.

Video: What are the latest efforts leaders of the top business magazines are making to stay ahead of the game both online and in print?

Video: Imagine a world where record labels and ISPs live in harmony, gently policing consumers who illegally share files not with lawsuits, but with friendly letters saying “Cheerio, you may not know that you’re sharing files ilegally. Here are some ways to figure out if maybe one of your kids is downloading music and to stop them from continuing to do so.”

Video: Now that ISPs have pledged to stamp out illegal downloading, what commercial models will succeed as alternatives? Will unlimited subscriptions restore lost revenue to the business, what part does advertising have to play, and how exactly do you convince a generation to start paying for music again anyway?

Video: If customers won’t pay for music, maybe platforms will. With new waves of web platforms desperate to lure users with tunes, the business may yet recoup some of that lost revenue. But does the licensing regime let the labels prosper, are the web operators paying their dues, and are artists getting their fair share of this potential new income stream?
