From Ixnay: “Re: Meditech. Heard they’re ditching LSS to create their own ambulatory product.” Unverified. That rumor has been going around for at least a year and they’ve bought the remainder of LSS in the mean time.

From Cabrito: “Re: Meditech. I hear that customers upgrading to 6.0 are required to buy all hardware from Dell, pay Dell an enormous implementation fee, and pay ongoing fees to Dell for maintenance.
