Intel has made the healthcare industry a top priority for two main reasons: its rapid growth, and its heavy reliance on expensive, proprietary technologies. Intel aims to address this market by supplanting these proprietary technologies with lower-cost, interoperable standards-based platforms—the same standard/high-volume model it has successfully applied in desktop, notebooks and servers.
