| Warner' team came up with the Bridge Concept which was prototyped by his organization I3 and ECU and succesfully demonstrated with Web Components from NPAC at WWVR'96 in San Diego |
| The Bridge connects patients/care portals with quality healthcare professionals (DOCking stations) via the intelligent middleware station(this will be Web), offering suitable routing and optimizing the message traffic, service quality and expert time utilization. |
| The emerging Web based framework (WebMed) addresses near term implementation in terms of today's networks and matches the social/patients and HMO/economy needs in terms of pervasive low cost infrastructure. |
| New Web based telemedicine initiative WebMed at NPAC addresses these issues in a set of planned pilot projects. |
