Wrong!
Please see:
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-med/practice
The Debian-Med project exactly aims at this audience and wants to make
sure that this specific software will be integrated smoothly into
Debian. Debian-Med contains only official Debian packages. This
does not mean that you can't split a separate, ready to run
distribution from it.

Having separate Debian packages laying around outside Debian might
work or not - but it conflicts with all advantages the Debian
infrastructure provides and so it sucks. I just vote for offical
package and will try to care for it personally or find some developer.
For example we just have OdontoLinux! (dental practice management)
and will have others in the same way.
Kind regards
Andreas.
