Hi Lhn5. I'm glad you took the time to look through and comment on Medcommons. The company certainly has some work to do on its site, I'll grant you that. Although, it is admittedly still in the final stages of its development stages, so it's not unreasonable to cut them some slack here. It's not often that I go to a site's "About Us" page and find only the bios of management and founders. Please get back to the board with the answers to the questions you sent once you've received them, and thanks for the follow-up. FAC

I am also impressed that it seems like almost anyone can fax data into someone's file if they have a pin code

I think there's also an ID. Machine IDs that humans never need to type can be 32 or 64 bit random numbers, or proper cert, in either case its infeasible to guess the ID.


...but in that regard the crucial question is once the fax gets into the record, how does the software know WHERE in the heck to put it?


Well, if the fax from the Dr. contains *his* ID, then it can be authoritatively stored as a report from your Dr. and filed as such. Of course, much, much better is for the Dr's systems to send properly formatted XML, encrypted and signed, over the net.
