Frankie, I'm not disagreeing with your assessments of the medial lists market, I'll just give you my take on this. My father and brother are both MDs in the St. Louis metro market. Both graduated at the same med school which is in the top 5 nationwide. Growing up in that environment, and then pursuing a law degree with that background, I've tried to keep a legal check on the med industry. You are correct, all institutions use a list system. But I think that is mostly the protocol list fro every actor's role in procedure. Or, if you're the prep nurse in surgery, you have to do x, y an z, double check it, you're done. That's how protocols have worked, or not, for years. In the pas few years however, they've been studying check lists for medical procedures more in tune like a pilot's fight list check list. I think on hospital even calls it the flight check list. This is relatively new in the industry (5 years studying?). I found it very impressive IMJX is offering a package of software that specifically addresses this new need that is being explored. I, like you, agree they will not own it however, and competition will be tough, as with any general task software. We can only hope fore a good portion of the market share. In that respect, I have posted earlier it is crucial that we get some of the first hospitals to use a check list system to use IMJX's. They all follow the leader in the med industry to avoid malpractice by being the stray dog. That's whey I think if John has they "trial run" statistics he should pr asap with names of users to lock in subsequent users. Failure to do this adequately will doom IMJX's ability to lock in market share. JMHO.
