That said, would you be able to provide some background information on these charts to put them into context. Namely, specify variable information including specialty, number of physicians, etc. Also, how do you feel this information scales? I'd imagine a 50 doc practice can justify deploying functionality within the EHR easier than a 20 doc practice given a larger revenue stream and budget, and as such the numbers for a 50 doc practice cannot simply be divided (i.e. the data does not necessarily scale linearly). -Justin Justin Campbell | Consultant office 1.617.379.0841 cell 1.802.363.5654 fax 1.801.409.3982 www.galenhealthcare.com | 888.GALEN.44 Chris,
