Re: [pakgrid] Fwd: E Learning course on HL7 Family of Standards (2nd Course)

Hi Dr Hafiz Farooq,

First of all congratulations for offering this course in PAK and I am happy that in Pakistan this course is being offered so this could be fruitful for our own people, As I am being involved in key projects with NHS UK for EPR (Electronic Patient Records) as well as with offshore companies for US hospitals for EHR/EMR, I know how much important and main role is of HL7 in all this process and as now middle east has started replicating US/UK iHospital Models it will be essential if IS experts in health sector will know importance and significance of HL7 and other Standards.

Please do let me know if there is anyway I can do anything while siting in UK.

Regards

Bilal Khalid
