I agree that an all-in-one platform for this is sorely needed! It would be great to keep track of health without hopping from system to system AND use data from genetics, for example, to complement data from a physical to support a diagnosis.
The first possible issue I think of is privacy and HIPAA.
- hsikka 8y agoI feel the same way! Quick q: Is this the sort of thing you would pay for, ex $5 a month? Or would you expect it for free?
- linesweep 8y agoA platform that integrates labs, records, patient-provided data, etc. would definitely be worth over $5 a month. A platform that is smart enough to interpret the data and offer lifestyle adjustments (treatments/drugs could be trickier) might approach the role of a health coach or doctor. I'm imagining EMRs with a Fitbit interface on steroids. I don't believe it would or should replace doctors, but such a system that gives the patient so much information would change the patient-provider relationship. TLDR; yes, I would pay a $5 subscription for something so powerful. :)
