Direct Project Updates

The Direct Project has a new name (formerly NHIN Direct),  a new website directproject.org and an excellent write up over on O’Reilly Radar called Healthcare communication gets an upgrade.

I am also interested to see that the O’Reilly folks seem to agree with me that this new NHIN thing really should be thought of as a “Health Internet”.

I see so much potential in the NHIN, and I really think it will be a communication revolution in healthcare on par with the original Internet’s communication revolution for.. well… every other industry except healthcare… I am glad to see that they are thinking about it in the same way…
