Hello and welcome to the website of FrontPoint Systems UK Ltd, a consultancy specialising in the brave new world of Medicine, Management & Medical Informatics.
Established in 1998, we have a wide range of experience in information technology as well as transnational medical experience. We also have significant experience in commissioning medical facilities from GP practices to large hospitals and regional service contracts.
In informatics, our particular focus is in the field of systems design and strategic direction with special attention paid to usability & user interfaces.
What you will find here will be opinions, sometimes strong, on the state of Medical Informatics. I will stick to cogent practical comments & leave the theorizing / future (navel) gazing to others.
To readers from far & wide:
The server logs make for interesting reading, telling me just who is visiting the site & the topics that interest you.
So can I invite you to participate in the discussion, by telling me why I am wrong if indeed I am so & generally shedding a little light on this brave new world we inhabit.
It is more fun that way, honestly!
