Excellent point ... and the reason why I believe everyone should and can (to a much greater extent) take control of their own medical history information. A PHR may not be a perfect solution, but I believe it surely can be a step in the right direction. Once I get mine set up, when anyone asks me to fill out the same medical history information again, I'll just email or fax or show them on my tablet where that information already exists online. ;) And when they ask the same questions that have already been answered, I'll just point to the answer that has already been provided (perhaps multiple times) on my tablet ;) --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.phxlinux.org To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
