I certainly stirred up more than I expected, I had no desire to cause
offense, Sorry. But I still stand by the points I was making.
This list is a public forum, open to all and watched by the press. I for
one am quite happy about this and would not wished to see this change.
However, this means that those who post to the list must be sensitive
that adverse comments about systems will be read and used by
competitors. One of the reasons I use this list is to pick up such tit
bits about others. (but at least my presence here is known) Sometimes
suppliers including AAH Meditel deserve a public slagging on other
occasions they deserve time to respond first. I would rather see issues
like the 1 Gb problem (which turned out not to be a problem) kept of
this forum. There are probably more appropriate to more private forums
like the user group BBs which are not open to the obviously hostile.
My second point was about the similarity of the relationship between
Drs and patients and GP suppliers and there customers. I think this
holds although it is obviously not exactly the same. The outraged
reaction of a few who seem to feel that this comparison is an afront
surprises me. I think such a view fails to recognise the real commitment
of many in the supplier community to delivering better patient care and
a naive view of General Practice which in my many years experience is
not immune from commercial concerns. Both groups have to make a living,
most of us also have broader concerns. In both relationships (GP-
Patient, GP-Supplier) we make most progress by working in a partnership
which recognises the others legitimate concerns.
