Interesting Canadian news: the tender covers, not a hospital, not a number of hospitals, but a number of hospital _systems_. I'd like to know how many hospitals and of course the estimated revenue.

The more evidence that they can gather about improved surgical outcomes from the ever-increasing use in the US the more traction they will have for political lobbying in the UK. The extent to which they have engaged in trying to influence the political situation in the UK is unclear to me, but I sense they could be doing more. I added two weeks ago and plan to add some more before the results in Sept. As for today's share price ...who knows, this is AIM afterall!

Continuing NHS challenges. Just wish US can pick up faster.

With such sales the share price would drop unless MM has a buyer in the background they will pass the shares on to.

Ramnik - they look like sales to me unless you can see a buy I cant.

Someone seems to be mopping up at 6p

[ramnik007] 30/6/2015 07:15

Let's hope there are more hospitals in the system who sign up well before Sept.

Interesting US healthcare info:

20% of health conditions are misdiagnosed.
Up to 40% of tests and procedures are unnecessary.
Physicians follow recommended care processes in about 55% of cases.
About 20% of treatments given are contradicted, i.e., should not have been provided.
Half of doctors admit to prescribing placebos to make patients feel as though something is being done for them.
It takes over 15 years for new, effective treatments to make it into clinical practice.
An estimated 400,000 people die due to preventable mistakes in hospitals annually.

Feb 30 - should be medium/ long term. Short term : pace of adoption needs to increase.

Today's Supreme Court ruling re. ACA is I think good news for Deltex.

It basically means ACA is here to stay. Whatever the GOP say, the ACA is making healthcare in the US more efficient, because there is now real pressure to reduce costs, which isn't going to go away. Furthermore, this year the penalties for some Medicare readmissions prior to 30 days are going up.

The Count, BigT20,

It was just unfounded speculation on my part.

[kasman] 25/6/2015 12:15

Serratia. The greater effort is shrugging for those for whom it's an option.

[bigt20] 25/6/2015 06:47

I assume the deleted posts were about the new Financial Director.

A pity there wasn't more in the RNS about his industrial secondments as I would like to know more about his commercial experience.

However he should know the DEMG accounts like the back of his hand!

[serratia] 23/6/2015 23:37

kas,

No idea but Atlas shrugged.

[kasman] 23/6/2015 21:13

Gavapentin, I have one question for you:
Who is John Galt?
;)

--->FEBRUARY 30TH

I missed your posts.

Why did you delete them?

Regards,

THE COUNT!

Feb

Thank you and agreed.

[doglover2003] 23/6/2015 10:30

Remember Ewan was FD before becoming CEO.

[february 30th] 23/6/2015 10:12

mrC2u,

OK, I've removed everything. Still, I believe it is a surprisingly low key appointment.

[supernumerary] 23/6/2015 10:03

Feb - think you're reading too much into it - he looks like a corporate type who uses a one-man company for tax planning purposes to me.

[supernumerary] 23/6/2015 09:29

Feb - yes, I thought it was rather low-key. Could mean they're focusing on conserving their cash rather than raising more of it, which would only be a good thing.
