Your point is well taken. EMR connecting to Google Health is the intention of the developers of Google Health; but at this time there are some barriers. In this community most people either dont know about, dont care about, or dont trust storing their medical records online. An intermediate form of storage would give people the opportunity to get acclimated to this digital medical revolution. With such a device they can have their medical records "in hand" before they choose to commit to Google Health. On the other hand, it will allow physicians who have not partnered with Google Health for one reason or another (that includes most docs that I know), to give patients a digital copy of their medical record. In my opinion such a device would help bridge the gap that currently exists between a very good service and the people whom the service is intended for. All the best to all of you...
