Information Week’s article, “Botswana Hospital
Takes A Digital Leap Forward”, describes the Hospital
as a digitized and networked hospital that provides care
based on U.S. best practices for electronic medical records
and clinical systems. For its hospitals, OR International
"takes the best clinical technologies and best practices"
available in the U.S. and elsewhere and "puts it overseas,"
said Weiner. Bokamoso has further ties to the U.S. —
it's an affiliate of Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare in
Memphis and has on its advisory board representatives from
a variety of American hospitals, including the Hospital
for Special Surgery in New York,John Hopkins, Vanderbilt,
Weill Cornell, University of California at San Francisco,

is first-rate care with full-scale clinical systems and
a paperless environment," Weiner said.
