Actually what Jon Scott (on the other SI thread), has said in his post is not all that far off. I have uneasy feelings about CM becoming involved in a product that has the POTENTIAL of getting huge lawsuits against them because of a machine malfunction or line disruption even if this is not critical care. Medical Malpractice lawsuits are on the rage. It would not be at all inconceivable that something will happen that will open up the possible involvement of legal action because of possible equipment failure. If CM was a nice big company with lots of revenue and profits, they could afford the potential loss, beyond insurance levels. But this is not the case.

Ultimately, the new in-home health monitor provides an inexpensive and convenient solution for those who require frequent health and vital statistics monitoring by limiting the need for regular doctor appointments or homecare by visiting nurses.

This equipment is not just a small part of patient care. It is replacing some doctor visits and some homecare by visiting nurses. That is getting into a possible equipment failure area that could create legal problems. CM better have all of their T's crossed and i's dotted.
