Submission + - Salesforce.com buys Electronic Medical Records (wsj.com)
sgent writes: "Salesforce.com has bought a minority stake in Practice Fusion — an electronic medical record company. Slashdot has recently had some significant debates over the use of the cloud by physician practices (see yesterday's Slashdot) and thought this should be brought to light. Apparently Practice Fusion already uses the cloud for their clients, and now will transfer it to Salesforce. It will also allow Salesforce to get into the soon to explode EMR market — which was funded with $30 billion in the recent stimulus package."
