Another scenario is going to a doctors appointment and having to fill out forms with your info (name, address, preferences, medical history and etc)

with a system like this, you can tap into a sign in station and give them access.

Doctors can also send you any documents they generate and it gets stored in your POD.

oh boy the HIPAA compliance nightmare this will create. Sadly there is a reason why every doctor office you go to give you poorly xeroxed form and a pencil to fill it out. Wish that would change obviously.

Not for the folks north of you. I'd be happy with a form & a pencil but for the past year plus I've been told by the less than helpful dr office assistant to "Go to our website and make your appointment" which then makes me fill in various screening forms.

The trade off - clerk doesn't have to spend less than a minute looking up and giving me a time for my next appointment and I have to setup yet another id & password to use their crappy appointment/medical forms app in a cloud somewhere.

Assuming you have a universal API for all medical forms ever. This would be like the final boss of scope-creep APIs
