Thanks for your post, I will put a link to it on my blog (hopefully, some of the physicians at my institutions will read it and be convinced to jump into Medicine 2.0!)

Last weekend, the Washington Post published an article about Second Life and how it has improved the lives of real-life people whose health has been impaired. This article can be viewed at: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/gallery/2007/10/05/GA2007100502228.html?sid=ST2007100502446

Cheers,

Tiromed is one of the leading services in this field.

Peter, your last sentence describes what this whole medicine 2.0 field is about! It’s perfect!

In essence, in situations like America’s, where what used to be assumed (wide ranging, largely paid for healthcare) may no longer be, patients will need to assume more of their own costs, and thus will become more selective — more choosy “consumers” — of their healthcare resources. Plus, more patients, especially younger ones, will be doing their research on MD’s and hospitals online.

Put that together, and MD’s who are Web 2.0 savvy will have a distinct edge over their non-Internet based colleagues, both in recruiting new patients AND retaining existing ones. The change is slow, but has definitely started.

It’s very exciting to see these discussions taking place; there really is so much innovation that will happen over the next few years in terms of consolidating and facilitating “communal intelligence” over the web. Look forward to your continual commentary and participation! :)
