I applaud them for what they are trying to do. I dont think anyone could argue that the mainstream access and economies of scale their information access would provide are valuable to most professions. However, we all know how slow the wheels turn with HIPAA and private patient information. A true dichotomy exists where the internet is pushing the limits of accessibilty and speed, while legislative policies regarding patient records are becoming tighter and tighter. I dont see this gaining traction anytime soon. MDS I find it very hard to believe that the OpenVista platform is going to be acceptable to HIPAA standards.

The company will either use the hybrid model or skim some sort of information that can be used to turn a profit, although I would hope HIPAA is broad enough to stop this practice. As an example of this I'll use G-Mail, Google's free e-mail service. There was quite a stink made when the service was launched in April of 2004 about the fact that to make ad revenue off the service, Google would scan all a person's emails to see what ads would be relevant. Would it be so far fetched to conceive of a company using similar methods of "passive" scanning of files to create a sort of direct to consumer tool for say pharmaceuticals?
