Consumerism and Healthcare IT Innovations Summit at Ohio State University on Nov 17

The nice folks from Ohio State University Center for IT Innovations in Healthcare sent me a note that they are holding their second annual “Healthcare IT Innovation Summit” on November 17 in Columbus, Ohio. It seems like a very interesting gathering and I might be attending. They are inviting thought leaders to explore questions such [...]

Digitizing natural handwriting from any surface - useful for clinicians?

As most of us in healthcare realized long ago, pen and paper is a very difficult technology to replace and compete with. It doesn’t matter how fancy our computers get, how nice tablets become, or how good the voice recognition features are, most healthcare workers spend a majority of their time on paper. The IOGear [...]

Dinosaur MD says "Make Mine Paper" and "no thanks" to EMR vendors

A friend of mine sent me a note to take a look at Make Mine Paper by a blogger who calls himself "#1 Dinosaur, MD". It’s a well written article that explains why there are some physicians who will never use an EMR. Some choice words: Until there is a single, interoperable system in wide use, [...]

It’s a good, but at times too high-level and could have been a bit more substantive in terms of real problems and potential solutions (but I suspect this was "landscape" summary so I can’t fault them too much). It talks about what is [...]

Eldercare social network and community site is good

Caring.com is an excellent example of how to use Web 2.0 for improving patient care — by targeting not just those affected by illness but actually helping those that are caring for the patients. Caring.com’s focus on eldercare (adult children caring for aging parents) is a good one and should prove profitable. I really like [...]

Texting for Insurance Deductibles and Copays

George over at Patient Centric Healthcare blogged about using mobile phones’ texting capabilities to get insurance company deductibles and other information. Nice idea, worth reading — somebody will make some money off of it. He says: Imagine texting your plan for an immediate response on: Your deductible Your FSA balance Your copay on a specific drug Whether [...]
