...only the cure were that easy. Any doctor will tell you the advantages of having lots of patient data on computers: it helps us avoid redundant tests, gather huge amounts of information for research, screen automatically for drug interactions - and spare others from having to decipher our illegible handwriting. I would be happy if every patient could give me a digital file of everything about him; it could really save time on first visits. But we must keep in mind that there will be a cost for computerizing patient records that could prove greater than the billions that would...
