Meditech; i.e., Medical Information Technology, Incorporated, was founded in 1969 by its chair and CEO Neil Pappalardo. Within Meditech, an early version of MUMPS evolved into a language named MIIS (Meditech Interpretive Information System), and a successor named MAGIC (not to be confused with a different PC database product of the same name).
MIIS and MAGIC are used only within Meditech and are not marketed to outside application developers. Based in Westwood Massachusetts, it is known as one of the seminal contributors to the MUMPS language.
