I visited the doctor the other day. Since it had been more than 10 years since my last visit (he was a dermatologist; which means that part of me has been relatively healthy), I had to fill out the standard questionnaires that I fill out each time I visit a new doctor. Each time I do this, I recollect how inefficient the medical industry is. And how ready we are for a truly universal Electronic Health Record (EHR) System.

This has become even more critical due to the explosive growth of unstructured data.
