@Fireprooftech User-unfriendly! I'm not sure tons of FAXs lying around is exactly "secure" either ;)
@kplawver But not exactly living in the past. Suspended animation?
@spierzchala Exactly! :: bangs head on erm ... pillow ::
@Fireprooftech I have no doubts! Soon as I asked my sweet, mellow Doc he got all unmellow and I got a taste of how much doctors love it, too

@mollydotcom I put in a bunch of 70-hour weeks getting our downloadable medical records ready this past spring, so I know ;-)

@Gargy You're way ahead of compliance (cool!) HITECH won't be enforceable until the 23d of this month, and I don't think it'll be pretty.

@mollydotcom I was wondering what a fax might be used for nowadays. I remember when "Interfax" was an uptempo name for a news agency!
