That's another "burning platform" in a week from YC (the other one was that fax-in-a-browser thing). The correct solution to this kind of problem is government backed centralized system. Like in Estonia: http://eng.e-tervis.ee/overview.html http://eng.e-tervis.ee/overview.html . Sooner or later all countries will have this kind of solutions in place and sadly, DrChrono will die..
- viggity 16y agoThe growth of the internet was impeded by a government backed centralized service in France, it was called Minitel. Centralized planning never has and never will work as well as a decentralized market driven system where the best ideas can rise to the top. Dr Chrono may have its drawbacks, but I'd rather see my physician make that call instead of some over-age government bureaucrat.
- atirip 16y agoIt works that way in Estonia, that all the doctors are _forced_ to use that system, which results to a wonderful thing where _every_ doctor has access to _all_ data there is about you - so when you lie unconcius on the street, 911 knows all your allergies, illnesses and treatments etc in that second.
