I am thinking that if we develop good HPLC-IR systems, then we can analyze our blood for vitamin definiciencies much more cheaply. Maybe we can even have such machines in our homes.
I actually find it quite insane that most hospitals are using HPLC-MS systems, even though it probobly would be sufficient for them with much cheaper HPLC-IR systems.

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

That's a thought. I've definitely looked at spectra and thought, "I have no idea what this means."
I don't know if there's enough good information in the spectrum to get that out, though.

Before we all get our hopes up that your idea can actually fix things: What is your expertise in this subject matter?

What type of topics can be posted here, what things we can post in off-topic boards?

The titles of the three forums are petty self-explanatory.

I work in a hospital lab. My educational background is just a BS in biochemistry, so I'm familiar with the techniques you posted. I've been working in a clinical lab for several years now.
I'll be a bit blunt here. What we use are analyte specific chemiluminescent assays to determine concentrations of analytes in serum. We don't use NMR, although one of our sub-labs that monitors metabolic deficiencies (usually in newborns) does use a HPLC-tandem mass spectrometer.
The easiest way to think about the real world version of this is working with a hundred-thousand dollar Easy-Bake Oven. A manufacturer will supply you with what you need, such as QC, reagent, the instrument and you load everything on correctly. You place the serum/plasma/urine/whatever onto the instrument and it will eventually give you a read out so long as the QC passes which validates the result.
