Doc, how "verylong" do you think we all have to wait for Medify to start delivering on promises? Just looking at old PRs they should have to be reporting something good by now?
Enormously disappointed in them by now!!!!!!!!
And let it be MFYS, why not?!
Yes, was checking this one , but wasn't impressed. MFYS and RSHN are two of my biggest pinkies. GLTUA.
I'm in both too and in between, but...are you sure that the
"second mouse" was actually getting the cheese?
Thank you, Doc!!! Please keep doing it!
Doc, "incredible" volume again. LAL
Doc, are you "the early bird,.. the second mouce" or someone else? LAL
Stupid US soccer federation, An Idiot for a couch, players that should not come even close to Europe and you have a recipe for a disaster! WHAT A SHAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope that Medify can do better than that...
Doc, you are right on it!!!
Herbie, wise and lucky!!! It's the only way to go!!!
Certainly will be more than happy with ANY POSITIVE NEWS.
Than you should recheck yesterday's trades. Today looks like all MM's and no interest at all from investors. Don't blame them.
Too much talk for these guys. It's time to deliver some good results by now.
Doc, by far mostly MMs. Look at today's value.
Don't want to sound like busher, but in my book Medify didn't deliver on anything yet. I would be glad if they wouldn't deliver on spin-oofs too. Creating an int'l division and deviding PPS at this point are two different things in my mind.
It's not to my benefit as shareholder to worry about Dubai exchange at this stage of the game. I invested lots of my money based on promisses made, and still have to see one positive development yet. Don't take promisses any more from Trevor or Jonathan, just give me PROVEN RESULTS please.
Doc, sure, a couple of more tradings between MMs and will be at cool mil! GO MMs!!! LOL!!!
Me too. Nothing else as hope, nothing else in cards.
Really happy for all of you!!! Congrats!!!
Doc, can you hear $2.57 for RSHN? You can use your tube.
I had a nice chat with my broker today. He told me to forget about UAE exchange ( banned by USA). As far as German one it could be done, but not w/o headache. Thank you Jonathan in advance.
AA... MM...XX YY ZZ. LOL
John, thank you for update.
Yes, I'm an investor, not MM or even ZZ. So will wait.
Any idea when news may be coming?
Anyone, please, do we know what are we waiting for? Thanks.
...and another very good buying opportunity...LAL
Trevor and Jonathan, look what you did to our board now!!!!!!!!
Bigheadd, why do you jump in front of the horse? LAL
Bighead, Sharks had a very good season! No surprises for USA...
GO USA!!!
Hi Doc and everyone. I'm back. Doc, thank you for good wishes.
No pleasure to watch my stocks so I'm watching World Soccer Championship now. What's up?
Doc, by "all" I ment in ref. to UK only.
Well, one off our kids graduated from high school today and another one moved to a 2nd year of college. We are taking these 2 kids and going to HAWAII in just a few hours.
I WILL MISS YOU ALL AND WISH YOU ALL GOOD LUCK!!!
I will drink for it tomorrow too. Have a good night.
It is 15k from each of you to me and it's legal. Thank you.
Herbie, you said it all.
No wander that Trevor has nothing to say.
Looks like it all will take a very long time and a huge effort.

Care records now running 2.5 years late
30 May 2006
Health minister Lord Warner has said that plans to introduce an integrated electronic medical record for every NHS patient in England are now running at least two-and-a-half years behind schedule.
The health minister said that the plans for the national summary electronic record, the foundation for later national integrated electronic medical records, first due in 2005, were now running between two and two-and-a-half years late.
The first deployments of the national summary clinical record were originally due last year. But now that would not happen until “late 2007 or early 2008”, Lord Warner told the Financial Times.
In the interview Lord Warner, the minister responsible for England’s NHS National Programme for IT (NPfIT), said some parts of the programme "are going pretty well and pretty much to time", but added others "are going more slowly than we would otherwise like".
He said the Government had had to "regroup" over the integrated national electronic medical record for all 50m NHS patients in England, which is meant to make patients' data available wherever and whenever it is needed.
As previously reported by E-Health Insider, the introduction of integrated clinical record has been subject to repeated delays and re-think on its content. The current plan is that the summary record uploaded to the spine will initially include only allergy and the most recent prescription information, without details of major diagnosis and procedures. Trials are meant to begin in 2007.
The delays mean the electronic record may not be in place until early 2008 and are due partly to delays in providing the software.
“I don’t feel apologetic about some of the missed targets,” Lord Warner told the FT. “If you don’t set some ambitious timetables you will not drive a big project of this kind… we owed it to people and the NHS to try to move as quickly as we could.”
Delays are also being exacerbated by NHS Connecting for Health having so far been unable to reach agreement with the BMA on what the patient consent arrangements should be for data. Lord Warner acknowledged that - three years in - the programme was at a “pivotal point”.
With next month’s National Audit Office report expected to criticise the national programme for failing to consult effectively with staff and engage clinicians, Lord Warner told the FT: “That is probably a fair criticism in part. We possibly could have got into the game earlier, and we could probably have done it better earlier on.”
But he added that given the history of efforts for computerise the NHS many doctors quite understandably wanted “to see the reality” before they fully engaged. Lord Warner said this was now happening.
The health minister also sought to clarify “confusion in the public arena” about what the original £6.2bn of contracts awarded “does and does not cover”. He explained the £6.2bn covered the national infrastructure and applications such as electronic booking and electronic prescriptions and records software, but not the additional local spending needed to train staff, buy hardware, integrate existing systems, convert data and other local costs.
To meet the cost of implementing the programme, hospitals and other parts of the system would have to use their existing spending on IT – around £1.2bn a year and rising. As a result “spending over the next decade is going to be up nearer £20bn,” said Lord Warner.
He added that this was not all new money as the “NHS would have been spending about £1bn anyway on old systems”, but which would not have provided the same level of clinical capability that the NPfIT procured systems will eventually deliver.
Lord Warner also told the FT that, thanks to NPfIT, the NHS could take advantage of a whole set of agreements covering software and hardware that allowed it to replace local systems far more cheaply than in the past.

Some interesting reading:
Hospital and GP records for 1.5 million patients are to be available for the NHS to share in a ground-breaking project launched ahead of the national NHS Care Records Service.
The Clinical Data Repository (CDR) set up by Hampshire and Isle of Wight Strategic Health Authority has gone live this month with GP records for 650,000 patients, nearly half a million hospital documents and 2,000 single assessment process (SAP) records already available to view and more due to be added soon.
The information was uploaded to the CDR after an extensive local publicity campaign to the 1.5 million patients in Hampshire and on the Isle of Wight, which advised people of their right to opt-out and gave them an opportunity to view their records before they were uploaded on to the system.
Out of 1.5 million patients in the area, only around 1,150 patients have so far chosen to opt out. Once uploaded, patient records may only be accessed with explicit informed consent from patients.
The system creates a common record with different views according to the role of the member of staff with a series of easy-to-view screens covering everything from past medical history, GP medication, hospital medication, laboratory results, community nursing contacts, out-of-hours contacts and details of hospital care.
Information from GP practices is updated each night with 76 practices currently linked to the project, based mainly in the south and west of Hampshire, and plans in hand to extend coverage to the east and north of the county as soon as possible.
The SHA says it anticipates all GP records being on the system by autumn this year and the intention is to run the system until the delayed NHS Care Records Service (CRS), being developed by the NHS National Programme for IT (NPfIT), becomes available – now projected to begin in either 2007 or 2008.
The consent model for the initial upload of information to the repository is on an opt-out basis as proposed for the NHS CRS – a system which has failed to win the support of both the British Medical Association’s General Practitioner Committee and the Royal College of General Practitioners.
However Dr Nigel Watson, chief executive of Wessex Local Medical Committee (LMC) and a GP in Hampshire, said the project had received the full backing of the LMC. He told EHI Primary Care: “The team has spent a long time working with the LMC on this and thrashing out the issues. As far as I am concerned I think this could definitely save lives and I am quite comfortable with it.”
Dr Watson, a member of the GPC, supports an opt-out model for the NHS CRS and said that he believed that trust in those running a system was key to its support.
He added: “We have worked quite closely with the people that have been doing this and we trust what they have done. There is a lot of paranoia about, some of it perhaps justified, and the fundamental issues are not necessarily about the technicalities of how a system is run.”
A spokesperson for the SHA said 750,000 leaflets were delivered by Royal Mail to households within Hampshire and Isle of Wight during January to March 2005 outlining the CDR. In addition, leaflets are available in hospital and GP practice waiting rooms and practices have been asked to give the leaflet to all newly registered patients.
A press release was also sent to all newspapers, radio and television stations within Hampshire and Isle of Wight.
She added: “There have been approx 4,000 phone calls from the public in response to this initial campaign that ran last year. There continue to be two to three phone calls a week from patients picking up the leaflet in the waiting rooms requesting more information.”
The CDR is accessible over NHSnet and is designed to be used by clinicians working in out-of-hours, accident and emergency departments, GP practices, hospital pharmacies and in the community. Eight out of ten out-of-hours services within the SHA have agreed to use it. Records will be available for any staff treating patients to view, subject to password control and the explicit consent of the patient being treated. An audit trail identifies when patient records have been accessed and by whom and patients can ask for a copy of the audit trail.
Just over 1,000 NHS staff currently has access to the CDR and there are currently more than 10,000 NHS staff logins a month, less than two weeks after its official launch.
Only Read coded clinical data is downloaded from practices with free text suppressed as part of a move to protect patients’ confidentiality. The system is capable of accepting records from all the major GP system suppliers,
In addition, hospital records from 460,000 patients are currently on the CDR from Winchester, Southampton and Portsmouth hospital trusts. Work to include documents from north Hampshire and the Isle of Wight hospital trusts is continuing.
Further developments will include a project to enable electronic transmission and upload of hospital correspondence to GP systems and analytical services to support cancer services, practice based commissioning and local clinical audits.
The technology behind the CDR in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight has been delivered by Graphnet Health.
Tony Sharer, Graphnet's operations director, said the keys to the success of the scheme had been the project’s ability to get clinician and patient buy-in and the work that had been done on data quality.
He added: “You have also got have a flexible technology to construct these things so it can be bent and shaped to what people want.”
In addition to GP and hospital records the CDR will also hold occupational therapy records, with record for 13,500 patients already on the system, and single assessment process forms which social services staff can access.
The work in Hampshire stems from the area’s involvement in the Electronic Record Development and Implementation Programme (ERDIP) between 2000 and 2003.
