I’m currently writing from Wien, Austria, where I’m attending the 20th International Conference of the Society for Medical Innovation and Technology (SMIT2008) and just presented my slideshow in the e-health section. The feedback was quite good here, but I would love to hear your thoughts on this. Of course, I will present a rather different slideshow in Toronto at the Medicine 2.0 Congress next week.
started with a bunch of questions/points but skipped to the FAQ
would recommend converting the FAQ into your presentation and scrapping the 36 slides of confusion
biggest question – how can medical professionals reduce costs/increase revenue using your service and, this model sounds as if e-patients (isn’t there a better term?) won’t have to pay for anything…are medical professionals expected to reduce office visits ie, $$, in favor of text messages, wikis, blogs, and micro-messaging?
good market to crack though…never a recession in health care
Good job! Enjoyed your presentation and found a few useful ideas. Thank you for sharing.
Great slideshow. Thanks for the mention!
Thanks for sharing!
I’ll be back!
