The problem in the health transaction space is that we are in the 21st century and we use 21st century technology. All of us use 'tap and go'. All of us use our mobile phones in terms of how we transact. With multiple billions of dollars of payments, the problem is that we are now so tied to a paper-based system. So what the government wants to do is investigate areas where we can actually use technology to benefit the payment of health systems. The problem is that those opposite are so addicted to quill-and-ink, they actually want to keep us back in a paper-based environment.
