Here's something my mother badly needs: an alternative to meditech that is easy to program and use, but cheap enough for small hospitals to afford.

Just to put this in perspective, Meditech allows users (ie: non-technical medical personnel) to write their own "programs" for retrieving and organizing information in something called "Meditech Magic." Here's a clip:

  BEERv1.1,
  100^b,T("")^#,DO{b'<1 NN(b,"bottle"_IF{b=1 " ";"s "}_"of beer on the wall")^#,
      N(b,"bottle"_IF{b=1 " ";"s "}_"of beer!")^#,
      N("You take one down, pass it around,")^#,b-1^b,
      N(b,"bottle"_IF{b=1 " ";"s "}_"of beer on the wall!")^#},
  END;
