MedNet Healthcare To Save Lives

We’ve all been through the horror stories of cell phone batteries exploding and killing people, now it looks like we have some good news, which is a cell phone application which could help save lives, instead of end them. MedNet Healthcare Technologies has a new service which AT&T is hoping to introduce. This will allow patients to monitor their own heartbeat, and also automatically transfer the information to cardiologists via Bluetooth-enabled cell phones. As long as customers are within AT&T networks, information will be sent to a central monitoring service, which will then relay the information to their respective doctors. Of course, the service won’t be free, and you’ll need to have a doctor who’s willing to play ball with such a service, but if it catches on, it would be a rather handy service to have in the future.
