Re: I seriously doubt

So people will be transmitting large medical files from their residences?

Re: I seriously doubt

Local physicians in remote areas who need assistance would likely transfer large medical files to specialists and hospitals far away. Real-time patient monitoring requires a high throughput also. Think remote Montana, Wyoming, Maine, Alaska, etc.

Re: I seriously doubt

I would hope they would do so encrypted. Also, I would imagine the hospitals they work for would have fiber. Then again, if they are TRULY remote and like a field doctor, they would have to rely on what's available. Still, I think MOST palces, MAYBE Alaska aside, would have adequate medical facilities within a 20 or 30 mile drive. Therefore, this might be a far stretch but it isn't implausible.
