From the January/February 2011 issue of HealthCare Business News magazine
Technology just as we’ve seen it in every other business sector will be a driving force in the health care field. We’ve gone too far along to not bring it up to the level we see today even just in grocery stores. At the store, they can find who’s buying what — down to the individual can. Bar coding for example — relatively new for health care has existed in the grocery store for 25 years. We’ve allowed for too long to not have technology eliminate duplications and waste and care.
