LOTS OF CASH WITH LOTS OF DEBT
I agree with the need but I think other companies are better positioned to do what HLTH wants.
Take a look at the following comments I found in this link:

"In the health care industry, some of the largest insurance providers, including Aetna Healthcare, Cigna, WellPoint Health Networks, Oxford Health Plans, Foundation Health Systems and Pacificare Health Systems, are in talks to build a new health insurance system, according to Bloomberg News.
The system, intended to undercut online service providers such as Healtheon/WebMD and CareInsite, also aims to eliminate the massive amount of paperwork and telephone calls exchanged between doctors, patients and insurance providers. The project, dubbed MedUnite, will allow patients to enroll in health plans and choose doctors over the Internet as well as handle administrative services, such as processing payment claims. IBM and Oracle have been enlisted to build the exchange. " |
