Designing an Effective Population Health Program Population health is the topic du jour for the health care industry, and I’m glad to see us all focusing on this important issue. But there is a lot of confusion as to what, exactly, constitutes population health. Or more correctly, an effective population health system. A good population […]
Once again I am headed to CES this year. Last year the DigitalHealth pavilion was overflowing with people, innovation, and wearables designed to influence us to a healthier life. The show still features the big sections of technology for cars, televisions and 3-D printers but much of the show is being turned over to healthcare […]
With a nod to Star Trek, Bones, Data and even the Holo Doctor Much of medical practice is as much a mystery to doctors as it is to patients. Human physiology is so complex, and the external variables so numerous, that we often have no sure knowledge of why one patient did well or another […]
Like many I was saddened to hear the loss of one of my heroes growing up – Leonard Nimoy was Spock to me as he was to many others. He epitomized the value of science and logic in the resolution of problems As my good Friend Jane Sarasohn-Kahn highlighted in her tribute on Healthpopuli: Learning from […]
As a physician and a CMIO, I’m forever seeking the latest technology offerings that might help us solve some of the very complex problems that exist in healthcare. With that goal in mind, I set out across the CES 2015 showroom floor, seeking the best in health innovation. While it was interesting to see all […]
I am at Medicine 2.0 this week and will be participating on the panel Bridging the Digital Divide and will then be presenting: Speech and Medical Intelligence – Allowing Doctors to Focus on Patients Not Technology This is an exciting time for mobile devices and while we know there is a discrepancy in the accessibility of mobile technology […]
This piece in Wired Natural Language Tech and Medicine: Just What the Doctor Ordered by our very own Joe Petro (SVP of Engineering) as he puts it Somethings gotta give! Yes it does. Healthcare and in particular doctors are juggling far too many changes And like the picture of Aaron Gregg who achieved the world record of the […]
You can always rely on Hollywood to take concepts and extend them into the future – sometimes correctly (cloaking, holographic TV, forcefields and eco skeletons with mind control), sometimes incorrectly (aluminum dresses, atmosphere that is completely controlled, suspension bridge apartment housing). We have had speech recognition and Spock’s request: So it was no surprise to find the […]

I received a link form a friend to this article Robots, Soldiers, & Cyborgs: The Future Of Warfare – I think in part because I post on the value and opportunity of the intelligent agentIn fact I just talked about this recently around the concept of smart shelves instead of selling shelves. It was this comment […]

No more burdening clinicians with data entry tasks. Florence You can see it here […]
via e-patients.net What a great post from Katie McCurdy on the new age of medicine and the fact that the medical record needs to be more than single points of data recorded when we stop by a healthcare facility or clinical office. Katie comes at this as an interaction designer so is able to create […]
