It launched. I thought the backlash would cook it for sure.

Now you have to make sure every time you sign a HIPAA form that they don't use google health. :bang:

Of course, having a central health database represent a huge leap forward for the efficiency and effectiveness of medical care.  No more filling out redundant paperwork every time you visit an office, stuff you can't possibly recall 100% accurately.  Any pharmacist would know what other drugs you're on, docs could see your entire medical history at a glance, etc.  Massive cost reductions in eliminating the silo personal information, and improvements in care by making relevant information readily available to health care providers.
