What technology from 1843 is still being used daily in healthcare?

Fax communication is still commonplace in healthcare because it allows providers to transfer patient-specific communication to one another at the point of care. However, the amount of coordination that the average provider has to do with various providers, specialists, insurance companies, hospitals, and more, produces a mountain of paper that’s weighing our health system down in more ways than one.

Faxes cost healthcare billions of dollars each year and can lead to medical errors due to missing, incomplete or unreadable information. It’s time to phase out that fax machine and replace it with something better – such as direct secure messaging.
