Impending death stripes you clean of everything you once thought important. What is left is the essence of life which for me are the countless positive relationships I’ve had and continue to have.

[Evan Kirstel #B2B #TechFluencer @EvanKirstel]

Steve Jobs...

He died a billionaire at the age of 56. And his last words make us think about the meaning of
life...
- After all, wealth is just a life experience I've had the opportunity to know. At this moment, as I lay sick in bed reminiscing my entire life, I realize that all the recognition and wealth I achieved are insignificant and lack higher meaning in the face of impending death...
So,
take my advice and be courteous and considerate of others. As we get older, we become smarter and we gradually realize that a $30 watch and a $300 watch show the same time...
Whether we wear $30 or $300 purses, the same amount of money can fit in both..
Whether we drive a $150,000 car or a $30,000 car, the journey and the distance are the same, we always reach the same destination …. #HIMSS23

@AftrTheShock I try to live by that Hunter S. Thompson quote

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@jayparkinson Thank you Jay and likewise I’ve always admired your efforts to take the road less traveled to make healthcare delivery a better experience for all participants.

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

With great sadness, will not be attending #HIMSS23 This the the reason why: https://t.co/lrIk1OAhWj

While I won't be there physically, I'll certainly be there in spirit

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

Like fashion, what was old is now new again. I wrote a piece along these lines 13 or so yrs ago.

[Doug Dormer @proVizorDoug]

@john_chilmark #HIMSS23. There it is. Less than 30 minutes into the conference and I think I see THE hot phrase for this year’s conference: Health Data Utilities.

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@proVizorDoug Excuses, excuses
Issue is…
Where’s the money?

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@proVizorDoug We shall see. Such things have been said for well over a decade now but little if any progress

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

This industry has had well over a decade to fix this. Despite all the patient-centered care BS they spew, reality is, this is not a priority.

[Doug Dormer @proVizorDoug]

@john_chilmark #HIMSS23 watching a session on “the digital front door” patient access and moderation of health information. A disappointing discussion. Almost no discussion of data moderation or ability to correct errors. Not close enough to emerging critical topics.

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@techguy This will likely be my last “swan song” HIMSS as health continues to deteriorate. Looking forward to seeing associates, colleagues and mentors.

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

Seeking assistance…
Doing research on “retail health”. Any suggestions on thought leaders I should reach out to who have a good read on this?

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

Quite impressive what Farzad and his team have built. Hats off to them.

[Jared Dashevsky, MD, MEng 💌 @jareddashevsky]

Who has the largest network of independent primary care?

@AledadeACO

-1,500 independent primary care practices and health centers (450 added in 2023)
-2 mil patients covered
-150+ VBC contracts across Medicare, MA, Medicaid, Medicaid, and commercial payers

[Chris Hogg @cwhogg]

As a longtime fanboy of Oak Street Health, I was excited to see @CVSHealth (finally) announce they were acquiring @OakStreetHealth for $10.6B, a valuation of $60k per at-risk member. And I have thoughts! https://t.co/FZy4SZPZXm

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@atulbutte @aaas Fantastic Atul. Deep congratulations and an honor well-deserved

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

I’ve been asking both Epic and Cerner to build out this functionality for yrs now. They think connecting out to content play eg #healthwise is enuf. Not!

[Brendan Keeler @healthapiguy]

pretty cool to see a truly novel idea pop up

21st century cures created a lot of good things, but at least one problem to be solved - faster lab results that stressed patients and pushed physicians to communicate out of working hours

https://t.co/XYh4wuiq0V

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

Good outline but only applies to physician roll-up plays that PE firms have been active acquiring.

Not only physicians though, my dentist, who fits target demographic gets 2-3 offers per week to be acquired.

[Blake Madden 🏥 @B_Madden4]

In 2021, Private equity invested $151 billion into healthcare, a freaking massive sum of money in a $4.3 trillion industry.

Here's a primer on how the private equity playbook works in healthcare.

Some good AI folks/researchers mentioned in this thread

[Suchi Saria @suchisaria]

Who are your favorite people working in Health AI? I mean those who understand ML and, more importantly, how to bring these approaches to the REAL WORLD at scale?

Please RT if you’re connected with real-world AI and deployment focused groups.

[Suchi Saria @suchisaria]

Many AI predication threads are hyped & misinformed but really enjoyed👇

Highlights:

• CoPilot/Augmented Intelligence for X: these startups are a GREAT oppty to build breakthrough products, in important markets, & with a moat

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@janoldenburg In similar situation but not of my choosing, more my health choosing for me. When I do exit, plan on volunteer work, some intellectual (healthcare) some creative (art/museum). But this is all conjecture as again health status will ultimately call the shots.

[John Moore @john_chilmark]

@erenbali @CarbonHealth @CVSHealth Thought that might be the case.
However, CVS, through Minute Clinic, went with Epic. Going forward, Carbon in ambulatory, outside Minute Clinics?
