Maybe that will be helped by maintaining millions of records about feces, doctor's visits, prescriptions, OTC supplement/medicine use, diet, genetics, etc. Insert "big data" buzzwords.
Still, it leaves the question of whether it's actually possible, worth it and will be embraced by enough people to work. I'm skeptical.

Overall the cost to create it I'm thinking is enormous and it's not something I or another could create/invent in a garage.

- paul9290 12y agoGreat to hear thanks for pointing this out! Definitely innovation needed to proliferate/become the norm. Of course there are many ways to skin a cat and no one is doing it here in the US... Yet. The one who does it best and has the biggest Rolodex/bank wins in this much needed space.
