JS/Data was a small healthcare IT company founded in 1978 in Rhode Island by John Sacco. It began by developing software for IBM minicomputers and found success selling systems to small, under 100-bed hospitals in New England. By 1983, JS/Data had sold systems to over 200 hospitals and grown to over 100 employees. It offered financial and clinical applications, including support for the new DRG payment system. While the company saw rapid growth in the early 1980s, the summary ends by teasing that the next episode will reveal what ultimately happened to JS/Data.

This document provides a summary of the origins of Siemens' hospital information systems and its predecessor, Shared Hospital Accounting System (SHAS). It describes how SHAS was developed by IBM in the 1960s to allow small-to-mid sized hospitals to share mainframe systems. Over time, Shared Medical Systems (SMS) was formed and grew to develop systems like MedSeries 4 based on the SHAS platform. Siemens later acquired SMS and its products like Invision, Medseries and Soarian, which have roots in SHAS and SMS's earlier systems. The document solicits recollections from industry veterans on the origins and development of SHAS in its early days.

Dan Mowery, who was the 14th employee at HBO, introduced the author to another HBO pioneer, Dan La Benne. La Benne headed the addition of nursing modules to MEDPRO to meet client needs. MEDPRO was very successful for HBO, achieving 44.7% growth from 1979 to 1980. However, HBO faced financial challenges adding new products and services. This led them to seek funding from banks, where a young loan analyst named Larry Gerdes was so impressed that he later joined HBO as CFO. HBO struggled with name confusion with the television network HBO and later became known as HBOC.

Epic has dominated the large hospital market in recent years due to its truly integrated software that provides the same experience for physicians in hospitals and practices. While other vendors offer separate inpatient and ambulatory systems, Epic's single code base allows seamless use across settings. This integration has helped win many large healthcare organizations by satisfying physicians who are the most important users. However, Epic is not perfect and also faces challenges like cost overruns and weaker specialty applications. Overall, Epic has been uniquely successful due to its singular focus on clinical integration compared to competitors' more fragmented product histories.

This document summarizes the early history of Shared Medical Systems (SMS) from 1969-1981:
- SMS was founded in 1969 and grew from a small startup with 24 employees to become the largest healthcare IT vendor, developing early database and billing systems like UNIFILE to automate hospitals.
- In the early days, SMS employees worked long hours to develop the systems and support clients with little experience. Many early clients and implementations faced challenges common to new software.
- SMS developed innovative technologies that helped automate hospitals and deal with issues like the Year 2000 problem, but growth also caused performance issues that were later addressed.
- The story highlights both the challenges and rewards of working with innovative young companies versus established large vendors

1) AR/Mediquest was a mini computer-based hospital information system developed in the 1970s by IBM and originally called HPMS. It ran on IBM System 34/36 minicomputers.
2) The system was later owned and developed by a company called AR Medical Management, founded by Andy and Roger. It was then purchased by Jean Johnstone and renamed AR/Mediquest.
3) AR/Mediquest had around 50 clients, mostly small hospitals in the Midwest. It ceased operations in the early 1990s after IRS issues but some hospitals took over development and support through a new cooperative.

The document summarizes the early history of Healthcare Information Systems (HIS), Inc., a company founded in 1978 that created software for hospitals and medical centers running on minicomputers. HIS had early success with their long-term care system and grew rapidly, installing over 20 systems. They expanded their software to handle acute care needs as well. While their software was powerful, the minicomputers struggled at larger sites like NYU Medical Center. To target bigger hospitals, HIS decided to rewrite their software in PL/1 to run on IBM mainframes. They developed a program to automatically translate much of their code from BASIC to PL/1. However, their hiring of a new director of marketing proved to be a mistake

It provides background on some key figures involved with JS/Data and highlights its use of IBM systems. The summary concludes with John Sacco's current retirement and relocation to France.
Interpretive turmoil and enduring values
The document discusses enduring values in interpreting the law and the Constitution. It argues that judgments should adhere to the original text and intent, and not construct new rights based on current values. However, an ascendant view of the First Amendment's protection of free speech has emerged that some argue abandons consistent legal principles in favor of evolving societal values. While laws enacted in times of crisis may infringe on civil liberties, unconstitutional laws are eventually overturned. Ultimately, the Constitution and Bill of Rights embody moral and ethical values that have endured for protecting individual rights and liberties.

The document summarizes the early history of Healthcare Information Systems (HIS), Inc., a company founded in 1978 that created software for hospitals and medical centers running on minicomputers. HIS had early success with their long-term care system and grew rapidly, installing over 20 systems. They expanded their software to handle acute care needs as well. While their software was powerful, the minicomputers struggled at larger sites like NYU Medical Center. To target bigger hospitals, HIS decided to rewrite their software in PL/1 to run on IBM mainframes. They developed a program to automatically translate much of their code from BASIC to PL/1. However, their hiring of a new director of marketing proved to be a mistake

Interpretive turmoil and enduring values
The document discusses enduring values in interpreting the law and the Constitution. It argues that judgments should adhere to the original text and intent, and not construct new rights based on current values. However, an ascendant view of the First Amendment's protection of free speech has emerged that some argue abandons consistent legal principles in favor of evolving societal values. While laws enacted in times of crisis may infringe on civil liberties, unconstitutional laws are eventually overturned. Ultimately, the Constitution and Bill of Rights embody moral and ethical values that have endured for protecting individual rights and liberties.

HIStory 9
- Lockheed Missiles & Space originally got into healthcare IT in the late 1960s after their space program declined, looking for new projects for their engineers. They partnered with a large healthcare company to build one of the first "Medical Information Systems" (MIS) on mainframes.
- Some key innovations of MIS included "matrix coding" which allowed users to customize screens, and using video matrix terminals with light pens for data entry before mice were popularized.
- Over decades, MIS was sold and renamed multiple times as it changed hands between companies like Technicon, Revlon, Alltel, and Eclipsys, before ultimately being acquired by Allscripts. However, many other early mainframe clinical systems failed

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
