I guess because I have more experience with Unix and feel more comfortable
with it. I've done a lot of Unix shell scripting although that was some
years ago.

Right now clients (physicians, clinics, hospitals) send test samples along
with a "requisition" which includes demographics, patient history, insurance
info, etc. We have a data entry clerk that enters this into the system. I
was thinking somewhere down the line if we had a web-based interface the
clients could fill in that info electronically instead of writing it on a
form and sending it to the lab where someone has to enter it. I think it
would save money but I reckon someone would lose their job.
