I don't think you will ever get the information you need to put this to rest. If it gets out it will damn too many people and show lots of lies.

I've been doing a little similar effort in Norway and encountered similar arguments. Oooh so timeconsuming and this is and that is not supported by their system.

There is this to say:

-Any electronic system is run on an SQL database (Structured Query Language) https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/what-is-sql/.

-Any professionally operated system has a DBA Database Administrator with access to the database. He can easily run queries in a GUI set up for that. The DBA is running queries on a daily basis to operate the DB and likely also to make all kinds of special reports for the employees at the hospital.

-SQL is a powerful language which makes it possible to put data together in "any way".

It is built in functionality in the GUI to export the result of a query to a file.

-The last year it artificial intelligence like chatgpt has made it possible for even the layman to make sqls. You just explain in plain language what you would like, what sql server you are running and what tables the data are in and it will produce the sql ready to cut and paste in the GUI.

So there are no excuses with GUI, limitations or timeconsumption.

You justask chatgpt and run the sql's directly on the db and that is that.
