    If Watson is to be used in this way, would the FDA regard it as a medical device? It is possible WellPoint's approach sidesteps this, but it appears that certain health related iPhone apps are under scrutiny as possible devices, and Watson seems like it goes far beyond an iPhone app. In this case, Watson might need separate clinical trials by indication. Has this been discussed anywhere?
