Nine Swedish regions missed the chance to seek compensation after doing work that their procurement assigned to Cambio, the supplier of the Cosmic patient-record system.

The regions carried out work needed to bring the system into use, Sveriges Radio reports. They realised afterwards that they should have sought payment, but by then it was too late to make a compensation claim.

The regions could not say how much money was involved. Västerbotten’s regional director, Tommy Svensson, pointed to a tight timetable.

Cambio said the parties had agreed on the costs and the division of work.
