   Read in your recent Physicians and Social Media story on Medscape that email isn't HIPAA compliant. But I heard from a colleague that a new software for Microsoft Outlook has been released that does ensure HIPAA compliance for docs. Here's one of the links to the Columbus dispatch that they sent me. It's a company called Manage-Trak — I'm not a client, customer, etc., just a health care communications person who gets your blog updates.Thought you'd want to know.http://markets.dispatch.com/columbusdispatch/?GUID=11441230&Page=MediaViewer&Page=MediaViewer&ChannelID=3191

   Ii think your post give an inside look as to how doctors are actually using social media outlets. It's a scary world to venture into when you make yourself vulnerable to the public on platforms such as FB. Mentioning twitter is enough to put any one into a tailspin. But going online and making these connections is a must for the docs looking to extend their practice and serve younger generations.
