How long is too long?

A recent article in the Wall Street Journal http://online.wsj.com/article/SB115439031335922852.html said that nursing home "industry transition to using electronic records is likely to take a decade or more."

A Decade????

Are you kidding. I want nothing to do with a decade of progress, where the tchnology exists today.

Is this a Blue ocean where someone could fly in and build most of the functionaliy for a nursing home EHR this in 18 months ... letting the typical EHR builders go through their usual 10 yer stage-gate? let me know if you want me to do that for you.
