Doctors are apparently salivating at the thought of owning an iPad, so they can show patients their records on screen through graphs. Plus the tech gadgets are on the national agenda to boast healthcare practices. For instance, the Federal Communications Commission wants to give more bandwidth to encourage the development of medical apps and ease the transmission of online records.
