A short story: it is possible, are you ready for it?
EDI is in the future of the medical practice field. Frances F. Manning, FACMPE, presents one scenario with the story of a mother attempting to obtain health care for her daughter and encountering a vast federal network of data bases. Also, members respond on page 36 to Manning's vision. Donald J. Lloyd, FACMPE, writes that it is possible and calls for limiting the prospects of such a robotic system. Sam J.W. Romeo, M.D., believes that Manning could have gone even further on technological advances while pointing out the side benefits of such a system.
