“I have posted notes in the past about the topic of converging access to medical knowledge by which I mean that physicians, healthcare consumers, and patients are often acquiring medical information from the same source (see: All Media is One: Convergence and Accessibility of Medical Knowledge). In this note and as evidence for my conclusion, I cited the long-standing access of consumers and patients to PubMed which is an archive of medical journal articles. I just recently learned that healthcare consumers and patients can now pay a modest fee for the same access to UpToDate that physicians enjoy.”
