[Medical Informatics News]

The two largest primary healthcare software suppliers in Ireland have merged their systems.
Now approximately 60 percent of general practitioners in Ireland, reportedly a total of about 4000, will be using
software from the same company.

According to e-Heath Insider, Medicom Medical Solutions,
the largest primary care software supplier in Ireland, has purchased the
GP Clinical from
Quantum Healthcare Informatics, who will now concentrate developing
software in occupational health and dentistry and developing their international profile.


Andrew Macfarlane, Managing Director of Quantum said: “I am on record as stating that the healthcare ICT sector
here in Ireland needs to consolidate. This announcement is a major step in that direction and we view it as a very
positive development for GP Clinical users and our stakeholders.”
