By all means mention that I suggested you call. Avellino can do the match scoring part during an initial analysis or a post implementation data conformance/quality check - MetaMatrix performs federated access for applications so that once you know what the cross references are - we can seamlessly join the two sources & resolve the cross reference. ie MetaMatrix makes the two databases look like one unified database - Avellino ensure that we are working on quality information.
