According to the New York Times, most Americans would like to be able to contact their doctors via e-mail, but fewer than a third of U.S. doctors use e-mail to communicate with patients. ''People are able to file their taxes online, buy and sell household goods, and manage their financial accounts,'' said Susannah Fox of the Pew Internet & American Life Project. ''The health care industry seems to be lagging behind other industries.'' Now that major health insurers are starting to compensate doctors for email, the practice is on the upswing. Doctors are particularly anxious to take advantage of the internet's intricate system of abbreviations and shorthand as a major time-saving device. If you plan on emailing your doctor, here are some of the symbols you'll need to know.
