More PHR Info

Thousands of patients (who must approve the transfer of information)
will have access to everything from their medical histories to lab
results through what Google considers a "logical extension" of their
search engine. So let’s discuss? Scary to me? Yes. Good for Google’s Business? Yes. Good for our health?? Wasn’t the American Cancer Society looking into getting in on PHR ourselves?
