Abstract
When physicians are asked whether they would communicate electronically with their patients, they often ask what range of topics would be discussed. In this issue of JAMIA, White et al. from the University of Michigan1 begin to answer this question through a carefully done content analysis of e-mail messages sent from patients to their physicians.Keywords
