"Partners? $1.2b patient data system seen as key to future" My favorite quote: "The costs of the technology upgrades will eventually get passed on to consumers through health insurance premiums, and to taxpayers, who subsidize Medicare and Medicaid, said Dr. Paul Hattis, a professor at Tufts University School of Medicine....We will ultimately all pay for it,? Hattis said. ?Will we get dividends back in terms of better care and greater efficiencies? We don?t know yet.?
But what the heck... why not gamble?
