Health Affairs put the value of a "fully standardized" health information exchange at $77.8 billion ANNUALLY, while the Rand Corp said a wired healthcare industry would create a savings of $162 billion ANNUALLY. Obviously there is a lot of waste in this field and a lot that technology could do to help...
What can you do? tell your doctor or hospital administrator to go digital.
Tell United Health Care and Cigna and Aetna and the Blues to tell their doctors that there can be financial incentives if they digitize their offices and practices... You can make the difference but doctors cannot singularly carry the cost burdens of this transformation... they should receive significant incentives to do this...and that can only be effectively communicated and requested by you, the healthcare consumer, on behalf of the doctor..As the doctors already lost all the financial fights to the United Health Care of the worlds..
Start by digitizing yourself, your own health care.. your parents and your children.. it is better medicine.. http://www.PassportMD.com can do this for you.
