Cerner Disses Google Health. Surprised?

It would make sense for Cerner to partner with both Google and Microsoft, because it is in the best interest of the patient. People are wanting and needing more control over their health records, and this would be one more way for them to get control. It would behoove hospitals to ask for this service, because it would be one more service they could offer to their patients. The product could be white labeled through Cerner. It is a win-win, Cerner just needs to realize it is not 1999, and that people will get their electronic health information either way. They might as well make it easier for themselves and for the patient.
