In many cases, when I read that Rep. Anna Eshoo (D-Calif.) and Rep. Edward Markey (D-Mass.) ask for something on the wireless industry, I have a knee-jerk reaction to roll my eyes. (That is if your knee can trigger an eye-roll.) However, the two representatives, who asked the General Accounting Office to make sure wireless medical devices are not a safety risk to people, I totally agreed with the plan.
The Hill reported that Eshoo and Markey are asking the GAO to make sure the Federal Communications Commission is monitoring the devices and ensuring they operate safely, and don’t interfere with other hospital equipment.
