Sanidad y Brasil

Parece ser que en la JavaOne Scott McNeally y Fabiani Nardon estuvieron hablando sobre integración, HL7, y sistemas sanitarios. El siguiente texto está extraido del informe de TheServerSide:

McNealy later spoke about unique problems in the healthcare space. ?If there was ever a need for an SOA based, JBI solution, it?s the whole healthcare IT environment?. Sun has been working on HL7 Java special interest group, focused on message and data exchange between hospitals. Following up on the ?growing crisis? in healthcare, a video was shown of Brazil National Healthcare system. Brazil offers free healthcare to every citizen. Each citizen in Brazil has a unique identifier, allowing them to be tracked in any medical institution. The ID gives access to a database showing all patient history. The healthcare system is based entirely on J2EE ? it?s platform independence being the main reason for choosing it, as well as Java?s security features.

Fabiani Nardon, CTO of the Brazilian national health systems was invited up to the stage. She mentioned how easy the system to use. No matter where you are in Brazil, you just present your ID and your medical database will be available. She mentioned how many people can now get instant consultations, where in the past it would take over 3 months. 2.5 million lines of Java code were written over a 4 month period to make the system work. She mentioned that their entire system is open source, allowing other countries to easily adopt and begin using it.

Yo supongo que en este texto habrán sus mentirijillas, que no todo será tan inmediato ni tan fácil, pero aún así España debería sonrojarse. Porque tenemos un país donde cada comunidad, por no decir cada provincia, tiene un proyecto igual que este, o paga a empresas externas para que lo desarrolle. Y encima es algo que pagamos todos.
