Wow, HealthImaging reports IBM allots $2B to support stimulus health IT implementation. It is amazing how much attention and energy is being focused on EHR implementations with the ARRA funds pending!
As I talk with people about EHR systems, it amazes me how little they understand about pathology... most people seem to assume if they include pathology reports in an EHR, they have all the pathology data. The fact that the raw data exists as physical specimens (or better, as digital slides) is hidden...

hmm...IBM has done great job to stimulate health IT.
