Right. You're not a real medical group unless you go through an 18-month RFP procurement cycle including being wined and dined by the Epic rep who already knows they're gonna get your $50MM wallet because they're golf buddies with your CEO and already embedded with all your labs. God forbid anyone practicing Real Medicine tries to go the OSS route, medicine is too complicated for something like that.

$50M? Pfft. The regional health service provider over here has spent close to a billion € migrating to Epic over the past decade. The feedback has been so devastating they're apparently now considering starting over from scratch. Love seeing the consultants lighting my tax money on fire like that.
