> people probably already having a lot of tools that they use and prefer. Another tool adds to their work load.

Further, a lot of providers are very strict about what tools their organization is allowed to use. In the past I’ve tried to get providers to look at a personal web page where I’d had a medical history and links to imaging data, and they weren’t allowed to access it via policy.

(I then brought 10 disks of imaging on a thumb drive - but they wouldn’t take that either. So I re-burned them onto physical media, and they were ok with importing that.)

I do understand why those policies are necessary, and in the end I learned their systems and limitations. It’s actually been an ok experience.
