@healthcareandy Agree @healthcareandy ! Though more specifically, in the prior auth call center of a medical practice or healthcare organization. NOT in their own health plan.
@MFAminGP@iDrSunny@RasuShrestha@healthyopinion People will use services they feel reflect their beliefs. Isn’t this a clear signal that it’s time to start creating health tech alternatives where privacy statements clearly indicate patients own data and it cannot be shared without their permission? Let the people choose.
@MichaelAlbertMD#hybridcare
Let clinicians find their own balance for when it’s best to see in person vs virtual.
In the end, the liability falls on them anyway.
@boltyboy@boltyboy not apparently. Absolutely.
Smaller versions of this occur thousands/millions times everyday with all chronic diseases.
You can’t know the story if you don’t have the book.
This will not change until we have - Patient Centered Data
@boltyboy @healthbjk @jfschneidr The reason for the scheduling conundrum?
Three letters.
EHR
There’s a way to create an elegant solution to address the complexities you mention if EHRs were not blocking implementation.
@SalBraico@joshuapliu@honest_ai_@pivotalhc More than a particular background you need an innovator. Someone who can drive new ideas that challenge existing ones people see as given. Clinicians may have better insight to those ideas, but you still need technical and business people who buy in and can execute.
@chrissyfarr I love the intent @chrissyfarr
Seems we don’t need ‘value-based care’ as much as we just need values in digital health to be accountable to.
It is the most essential part of care.
Isn’t that one of the first fundamentals we should double down on?
Perhaps a Chief Values Officer?
@chrissyfarr@joshuapliu@SeamlessMD Say it like it is -
Digital health studies generally are self serving marketing tools focused on gaining new business.
They would not survive an evaluation for scientific rigor.
This may be digital, but it is not health.
@aikeho Show me a digital health company that aligns their success with the success of doctors and patients. Shouldn’t their outcomes be aligned? I don’t get it. Maybe I should have gone to business school. 🤷♂️
@PsychCentral It is heartbreaking.

How we deliver care has to change.
DTC solutions & self help apps place convenience and data collection over care.
We need solutions that help providers with ongoing engagement & the relationship to truly address these issues.
@Berci Digital health keeps getting more disappointing...
Too many continue to disregard the values, trust & privacy which are sacred in healthcare.
It is disingenuous to say 'We are here to help'
They should say 'We are here to to maximize ARR'
@JohnNosta Man, you hit this on the head @JohnNosta
Think bigger. Telemed is opportunity to fix major healthcare problems. Rather, solutions today reinforce them.
One example - 'Let's integrate with Epic/Cerner/Allscripts...' is not new thinking and does not make things better.
@PsychSocChange Until it does, being aware of these issues when providing mental health assistance to patients is so important @PsychSocChange Why having a relationship, and not just one-off care, with patients is necessary to understand better what they are going through.
@PsychSocChange Businesses put financial goals ahead of social/mental health goals because that is how they prosper.
As the mental health & social consequences of their business decisions are revealed (ie Uber & their drivers), and it effects their bottom line, perhaps this can change?
