Could national health costs be reduced by doing simple testing at home?

Could the ubiquitous home computer, in conjunction with "plug-in" medical testing devices lessen the skyrocketing cost of medical care?

The home computer could communicate with the doctor's computer and call for more comprehensive testing -- if required.

What are some devices that could be adapted to interface with the home computer:

blood sugar assayer?
blood pressure meter?

Or would the cost of such delicate instruments end up being so high that it wouldn't offer any advantage?

What say you?
