Digital Rx: Take Two Aspirins and E-Mail Me in the Morning
By MILT FREUDENHEIM
Doctors may no longer make house calls, but they are answering patient
e-mail messages - and
being paid for it.
In a move to improve efficiency and control costs, health plans and
medical groups around the country
are now beginning to pay doctors to reply by e-mail, just as they pay
for office visits. While some
computer-literate doctors have been using e-mail to communicate
informally with patients for years,
most have never been paid for that service.
