WEDI has agreed to help us coordinate a key pharmacy industry executive meeting that would establish an open forum concept by asking these questions during this meeting. You can obtain this goal by continuing your current process of meeting with the different segments of the healthcare industry. Interoperability would allow pharmacies to communicate with other parties that use other standards and syntaxes if new business needs arise. Variability can cost effectively exist between different syntaxes. One standard syntax is simply a political vision, which in pharmacy's case is not based on business needs or cost savings.
Interoperability is the key to maximize communication opportunities.
The vision of administration simplification is cost effective communication. I look forward to responding to your questions.
