In short, this seems like a deliberate decision to take on some technical debt. As a result, it can seem that using Internet Explorer be default for all situations is the “easy button” because, well, most of your sites were designed for Internet Explorer, so…just…always use it, ok? In healthcare (as in many other industries), it’s often the case that you’re running with an extremely thin team.
įrom time to time, I am asked by customers, “How do I ensure that all web traffic goes to Internet Explorer?” In fact, I was recently asked this question by someone trying to help a hospital. Internet Explorer is still a component of Windows and follows the support lifecycle of the OS on which it’s installed. We are committed to keeping Internet Explorer a supported, reliable, and safe browser. Update March 12, 2019: Since this post was published, I’ve received some customer questions on the future of Internet Explorer.
