Unless the statement in this posting[1] has changed in the few years since it was posted, this guy could lose his medical license over this... I'm all for using technology to make things easier, but something as regulated as the medical and pharmaceutical industry needs to be thought through and can't just use any third party tool to do what you want with.

Lately, I've been doing a side job in which I transcribe focus groups for various businesses, including several large health insurance firms. I am consistently stunned at the money they spend on this, and the cynical nature of the questions they ask, and how completely unrelated they are to anything even resembling patient care. They just aren't concerned with patient care. They are concerned with developing "innovative insurance products" to compete with the supposedly "innovative" offerings from other health care conglomerates.
People don't want "innovative insurance products". They want affordable health care, provided by physicians who are not driven to distraction by the bureaucratic requirements of dealing with ten different insurers who are all trying to pay out as little as possible.
