Enjoyed spending the afternoon with @EricTopol discussing #AI, #SoMe, and the #future of #healthcare.
The most important takeaway: “Connecting with patients is central. If you anchor with that everything else will follow...”
When we stop seeing “medical records” as a competitive asset—we will have health information exchange. Health information exchange is a business & political problem, not a technical one. We put a man on the moon in 1969. Surely, we could exchange health information if wanted to.
.@HHSGov solicits public views with RFI as to whether HIPAA “presents barriers that limit coordinated care or value-based payment systems”. Also debating whether $$ from data breach penalities should be shared w/ affected patients https://t.co/mydFMYwwuP
The healthcare industry is obsessed with home runs. We “ooh” and “ahh” at so-called miracle drugs and technologies that do little, while universally dismissing “base hits” like exercise, nutrition and prevention. Why healthcare is striking out big time: https://t.co/hXjIJWSOKH
We're talking virtual health in the Innovation Lab at #xMed. Read our latest research on physician adoption and consumer demand for virtual care. https://t.co/Em4jWze9Ck
A #workflow sighting at #PCCSUMMIT18 - resident being discharged from hospital to a SNF. Seems simple but many gaps and manual steps involved today. #HITsm
Wow. Really surprised that the two biggest bars on this poll are "Improved paper/fax processes" and "None". What does it say when these are the 2 projects that audience was most involved with in past 12 months. #PCCSUMMIT18#justsayno2fax#HITsm
Does it make sense that Alexa can remind me when I need to purchase more cereal but not when I need to take my insulin? Rather than applying ill-fitting old laws to new digital medicine interventions, we could tailor a new regulatory regime to new technologies.
As consumerism in healthcare grows, providers must turn to the patient to understand how to provide quality, satisfactory care https://t.co/gDLn0SnlDe #digitalhealth
We’re at #xMed this week exploring the reinvention and #futureofhealth. Take a glimpse at what the hospital of the future might look like 10 years from now. https://t.co/4f4gJGV9E1
#Healthcare#innovation should focus on the low hanging fruit and the health bookends: the type of work that tech can lead #healthsystems to become more #efficient https://t.co/bOrxIYe43S
Perhaps the medical practice of the future will include physical therapists, dieticians, integrated pharmacy, dentistry, optometry and podiatry—and we begin not just to practice alongside each other, but practice with one another.
