This is hilarious as I have said for the past 2 years we need role models and today I had some fun on twitter asking which PHR members of the ONC use? Anybody up for discussion there? If they are so good, then why doesn't anybody in positions of government in authority talk about theirs...

Back in September I wrote a post about the small number of individuals using personal health records and efforts of those who are trying to make setting up a PHR fun, and until now there was no way to make it fun as hard as software folks worked at it. The consumer still knows the difference between...

I just made this post yesterday on the same topic, those folks need to get some Algo Men before opening their mouths as this big retailer has already ran theirs, so it makes you wonder is everyone except politicians in the know here with business models and algorithmic methodologies ? Didn’t take...

Ok so this is the side that maybe nobody thinks about . There has been talk about “starting over” but when it comes to data systems today and getting operations in place, does anybody give this any thought? The technology specialists do and have to create reports and devise budgets...

This is going to be a challenge for sure this year and whether or not I am in agreement doesn’t make any difference at this point, but rather will we be able to see a group of of leaders who can actually work together and leave the 70s behind. We talk about better laws, better consumer protections...

Read this quote from the article below: “The most popular downloaded apps were games, followed by news and weather, and social networking. This brings me right back to an earlier post today – tons and gluts of mobile and other software that consumers don’t use – please start with some aggregation processes...

By taking a look at this letter, I can see what nothing gets accomplished in Congress today requesting the Forms 990 from IHI to include all schedules. Senator Grassley is also asking about his benefits and I assume this might be inquiring as to whether or not he’s going to be a Medicare participant...

Here we go one more time for one of my “favorite” rants (grin). Nobody takes this seriously as we have no role models as we don’t see anyone at top levels, with the exception of President Obama using any technology, look how much press his use of a BlackBerry received a while back. Now there...
