As hospitals around the country race to the bottom, I'm not sure where a qualified IT team to manage these systems is going to come from. I don't think hospitals can afford them anymore.
I worked in hospital IT and it was a tough environment: it seemed like we had at least one big system rollout (EMR, radiology, lab, etc.) every year. It was difficult to manage when the hospital was paying a little below median for the area, now they are way below that where I live (western MA).
