What are the Healthcare Milestones?

I've just updated the IN3 think piece Age & IT Experience that plots the current age of managers, employees and customers against the big developments in information technology.

What are the milestones that define generations in healthcare?  The dawn of managed care, the Clinton initiative, PET scans, robotic surgery, Health 2.0?
