I would be surprised if it was as good as you guys, but I think that you can imagine a medical student or an intern doing this before they went into a room to talk to a patient and having it be pretty helpful. At the Mayo clinic, for example, they’ve got a very robust hospital at home program. Bob: Yeah.
