The network allows electronic remittance of annual fees and the handling of disability payments. Doctors use electronic forms to expedite filing claims. Users simply need a Netscape browser and a password to access the network. I would like to conclude my comments with a quote from Paul Romer, a professor of economics at Stanford University who has written a great deal on the new network economy. Instead, it's a playground of nearly unbounded opportunity, where new ideas beget new products, new markets, and new possibilities to create wealth.
Opportunity is indeed the name of the game in electronic commerce.
