| Post subject: | Hello from Peter |
Hi All, I came across MUMPS in my first job after finishing my masters in 1976. It was a Medical Research Institute, awarded by the MoH to build a pilot Hospital Information System (Bratislava, Czechoslovakia). The focus was on patient record keeping, not billing / financial / accounting part of the problem. Today, in the fast pacing IT word, one could only wonder, how little has changed in the core of the business logic in that field. However, that system was only text based. It run on a pair of PDP-11/70 and two 80 Mbytes removable disk packs, connecting 32 terminals located on wards. We started on MUMPS-11 V4B a MUMPS implementation by DEC. In 1980, after the first standard implementation became available we rewrote the app and switched to DSM-11. Since then I participated on many projects in health care, most of them were somehow connected with M-technology (Datatree, CCSM M-Globals, Micronetics' MSM, Cache). In Austria and Slovakia we built systems for Radiology; Primary Health Care and Outpatient Clinics. In Egypt we implemented the VA Vista HMIS in 4 pilot hospitals (a USAID sponsored project), just to mention few of them. I ended up in Vancouver, on the West Coast of Canada. In the last decade I worked as an IT consultant for several health care providers in Canada and US (MSM, VAX DSM, Cache, GTM). Lately I re-built an existing system for GPs into a 'full stack' open source, using GAMBAS (OO development environment similar to VB, running on linux) as a front end to a GT.M database and have plans to use MV1 as an alternative. What I am expecting from this forum? To hear about new development, events, ideas. Would like to share my experience; to volunteer few hours a week on a meaningful project / activity and eventually, to find a new contract... Did I miss something? Please ask, if you want hear more. Cheers, Peter Ottis |
