The move to manage medicine from a financial perspective, i.e. managed care, has added huge layers of bureaucratic and administrative functions to healthcare. The need to have the ability to track patient medical records, mandated by government legislation such as HIPAA, is bringing new technologies and processes into the healthcare arena. A universal medical record system and absolute patient portability is a definite possibility in the not too distant future. All of these issues beg for clear IT solutions.

Healthcare organizations are undergoing major reorganizations and adjustments to meet the increasing demands of improved healthcare access and quality, as well as lowered costs. As the use of information technology to process medical data increases, much of the critical information necessary to meet these challenges is being stored in digital format. Web-enabled information technologies can provide the means for greater access and more effective integration of healthcare information from disparate computer applications and other information resources.

According to the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America (PhRMA) more than 1,000 drugs are in various stages of development. Similarly, breakthroughs in the medical device arena such as coronary stents, implantable defibrillators, and minimally invasive bypass surgery and advances in DNA-based tests and other advanced diagnostics are detecting cancer and other diseases earlier when they are more treatable are moving from dream to reality. It is obvious that even if all of these drugs and devices make it to market, not all will enjoy successful market penetration.
