> The author explains why HealthKit will likely never share data from an EHR via some sort of HIE. She's right,....

I might be wrong, but I do believe the author, Jared Sinclair, is a guy. It's funny how we see "nurse" and we instantly think "girl." I thought that too. But than I thought "programer=guy, but nurse=girl, does not compute!" So I checked the name on the article. I don't mean to critique, as those who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Just found it interesting how ingrained those stereotypes are.



You are right. It's too late for me to edit my comment so the error stands.


Their avatar suggests they are male, too.


"At the risk of sounding like that guy" kind of gives it away ;)
