No questions, just wanted to say thank you. The healthcare industry is in dire need of having its costs driven down, and your team looks like its perfectly positioned to capture a substantial amount of revenue with this.

Thank you! Every day we wake up wanting to work towards a better healthcare solution. There are many ways to solve it, and this is just one of many, but we feel this is where we can make our impact.

It's more about positioning of the solution, and thinking of new markets, not replacing existing markets.
We also have a business model that allows us to leverage software in ways that lower costs of doing business -- some traditional areas like sales and support, and some non-traditional ways as well.
