As this takes off, watch the use of this as a way to try to shut them down. Doctors don't like price competition

The same problem applies to MDs in family practices or HMOs. I went through several health plans in Houston as my employer went through HR contractors nearly every year. I went through 3 doctors, and none of them had access to my medical history unless I gave them my personal copies.

No different than a Walmart health clinic or any health clinic for that matter.
