Other Miscellany:

teleradiology = tolerability
PACS-related = pastureland
DICOM = disco
DLT = dolt
superuser = superset
Flint,

Meditech and mediate should never be in the same sentence since those two words have completely opposite meanings. Meditech and the words forced, hacked, and kludged should be.
