Mr. Chairman, DOD has competitively selected Anesthesia Information Management System, AIMCARE, that automates the collection of operating room data and clinical processes. This system offers DOD significant cost savings of over 70 percent with 'Enterprise' implementation rather than 'hospital by hospital' implementation. This 70 percent savings represents savings of over $10 million, that is being made available in the first quarter of fiscal year 1999. Am I correct in my understanding that, resources permitting, the Department is interested in taking advantage of this opportunity?
