BL is actually very in tune with the market. He knows Mychart (and Lucy) too well. For those that know the patents and the ramifications of the McKesson v. Epic case latest ruling before settlement the following will be of interest to you:

That's hilarious. I just tried to look up when Cleveland clinic went live with MyChart. The best I could find was this New York Times Article from January 2005 (!) that mentions My Chart at Cleveland clinic.

That's well before the filing date of MMR's patents.
