A greater meaning in the WellDoc FDA approval?

A little less than two weeks ago, we cheered 'well done' to WellDoc for gaining FDA approval for its Diabetes Manager [TA 4 Aug], and that pretty much was it.  Over at the HealthPopuli blog, Jane Sarasohn-Kahn sees it differently--that it signals FDA's openness to mobile health solutions and that it's a positive sign to all the app developers waiting in the wings.  While we have a touch of 'New Jerusalem' at the end (managing healthcare costs), she also notes that FDA in its report on the 510(k) approval process for medical devices admits they are not ready for prime time when it comes to evaluating highly innovative systems.  Article.
