Great, @Peter Elias - I will put an infographic slide together that will help communicate this move from "consumer" to "investor" so we can enhance the "manifesto" impact.  Small nit: I never liked the term "manifesto" as it brings up images of Karl ...

Brenda, You raise a valid point: Patient Safety vs. Patients feeling safe. I totally agree. The framework has been limited or at least short-sighted when using the term & when referring to the concept of Patient Safety. I myself recognize the difference ...

Didn't want your post to go unremarked, Dave. But I don't know exactly what I think about these eight mechanisms of co-production of medical practice. I think I need each term elaborated a bit before I can determine what I think of them or know how to ...

The point of this post is to get input about replacing Connect from as many members as possible. We need information about what works poorly (or doesn't work) and about what you would need or like in a replacement platform. There has been some discussion ...

John, I have to echo @Brenda Denzler Brenda's comments and say that the work has just begun. Most of the news suggest that the source of the immediate problem has been found (infection related to possible UTI and confirmed pneumonia) and hopefully ...

Thank you for sharing this, Maria!  Indeed it can feel like all the work we do isn't getting anywhere, but every bit of the generosity and caring you've given others has clearly altered lives, which is in itself caring. And I strongly suspect that some ...

Thank you @Jan Oldenburg for the slides, notes and especially for moving this forward. It sounds as if there was good attendance, good energy, and lots of good discussion. If I understand, the next steps are: Identify a work group willing to take ...

Peter, you present an excellent case study. In that case, IMHO, because we are not dealing with a once-and-done situation (you vaccinate or you don't), but with a chronic situation (denial of necessary medication followed by relapse and a serious medical ...

Well, Peter, doctors are not usually quite that blunt. They don't just come right out and say, "It's your own fault." Rather, that is the message lying behind what they DO actually say.   What the Patient Says: I am having more and more trouble exercising ...

Hi Adrian This is not a new discussion, but you're making it a false binary. HL7 can't "agree to honor the patient's designated destination for access as their the first priority" because HL7 has nothing to say about priority, only about what is possible. ...

I'm going to agree with both the article and Peter.  I spend a lot of time reading what people think about the future of care, and at conferences, where I hear truly ignorant generalizations: "Patients do this," "Patients don't do that," "Patients don't ...
