Summary
Google Health being dropped is a setback for Electronic Medical Records EMRS in three ways: 1 Widespread adoption through cloud access; 2 Time-to-market and payback; and 3 Cross-industry collaboration.

My summary: Google couldn’t find any way to make money doing this, so they bowed out.

I think that’s a completely rational decision for them to make. Unfortunate for the world, but that’s business.
