I've had the se thought as expressed in the last paragraph the other day and isn't the anwser in compatibility layer? Like can't they install and run windows medical software using WINE?
Having worked in healthcare IT. Adding more complexity will only make things harder for them. A lot of healthcare staff can barely operate the Windows PCs and applications they're used to. Change anything and they act like the sky is falling.
That opens up a legal liability for the people creating the compatibility layer. You've gone from two points of failure (the doctor and the machine) to three.
For sure it can be done but most people / companies won't want to take on that liability.
