Eysenbach: eHealth: Transforming the dynamics of a complex health systemGunther Eysenbach
Keynote for the Australian 10th Annual Health Care Congress ( http://www.webcitation.org/5Vlz9j0HO ) in Sydney, 27th - 29th February 2008. Keynote contains a run-down of what ehealth is all about, and then focusses a fair bit on Personal Health Records (PHR 2.0) and Personal Health Applications. This is partly because the new Australian government under its new prime minister Kevin Rudd has set a couple of priorities for reforming health care, among them is "focussing on preventative health care and health promotion to help keep Australians healthy and out of hospital", which is a goal that can - in my opinion - be attained or at least greatly supported with Personal Health Records, or more specifically with what I call second generation PHRs or PHR 2.0. Contains screenshots of our Healthbook (TM) project, which was subsequently mentioned mentioned in the preliminary report of the 2020 Summit to the Prime Minister in Australia, see http://gunther-eysenbach.blogspot.com/search/label/healthbook
This document discusses how consumers use the internet and social media for health information. About half of US adults own smartphones and 17% use them to look up health information. Social media allows for direct communication between patients and providers and the sharing of health experiences. However, privacy and unreliable information are concerns. The role of nurses includes disseminating effective health information online and enhancing provider-patient communication through technology.
M. Chris Gibbons - Health IT and Healthcare DisparitiesPlain Talk 2015
"Health IT and Healthcare Disparities" was presented at the Center for Health Literacy Conference 2011: Plain Talk in Complex Times by M. Chris Gibbons, MD, MPH, Associate Director, Johns Hopkins Urban Health Institute.
Description: This presenter will discuss the use of technology and consumer health information to improve healthcare disparities.
This document discusses the use of social technologies (Web 2.0) in healthcare contexts. It outlines how consumers, clinicians, students, and others use tools like wikis, blogs, social networks and video sharing to collaborate on health issues. Examples are given of support communities and knowledge sharing between patients and providers. While social tools provide benefits of access and support, risks around privacy, security and misinformation must be managed. When used responsibly, these technologies can help empower patients and connect healthcare stakeholders.

National e-health involves using information and communication technologies to improve healthcare. The WHO promotes intersectoral collaboration between health and IT to develop e-health solutions that are health-centric. Germany launched an e-health initiative in 2007 that gave 80 million patients mobile access to their electronic health records. Both Canada and Australia have invested heavily in developing national e-health infrastructures, with Canada investing $1.6 billion and Australia around $5 billion since 1998. While both countries have seen benefits from increased efficiency and care quality, they still face challenges around interoperability and a fragmented approach.
E-health initiatives are important for improving healthcare delivery. Current initiatives in Australia include My Health Record and telehealth services. E-health encompasses electronic health records, health information for consumers, and healthcare information systems. It allows more efficient, higher quality care through digital management of health information. The document discusses benefits of e-health like increased access to care and information for patients, improved communication between providers and patients, and reduced costs and administrative burdens for employers and providers.

eHealth Consumers in the Age of Hyper-Personalizationchronaki
Where the Internet of Things meets healthcare we see a plethora of tools, gadgets, and apps that promise to improve life, health, and independence. As patients, family members ofr friends, we are subsumed under the term "eHealth consumers”. For us it is increasingly hard to navigate in the unfolding digital reality dominated by new gadgets, and fragmented information, data, and knowledge we don’t control. More personalized and targeted products, services, and content could alleviate this. In this slide deck we are specifically focusing on challenges and opportunities for personalization in view of varying eHealth literacy, lifestyle and health goals.
The document discusses the nursing process and its components. The nursing process is a systematic approach used by nurses to identify client needs and plan care. It involves assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation. Assessment involves collecting both subjective and objective data from various sources to understand a client's health status. This data is then validated, organized, interpreted, and documented. The overall goal of the nursing process is to provide individualized, holistic care to clients.
The document discusses the need for innovation in the US healthcare system. It notes that healthcare costs are unsustainable, outcomes are lower than other developed nations, and care quality is uneven. The system focuses more on reactive illness care rather than proactive wellness. There is a need for new approaches that are patient-centered, preventive, evidence-based, and make use of technology and data to improve outcomes while lowering costs. Innovation provides an opportunity to transform the system by seeing it with "new eyes."

Telehealth monitoring has been shown to improve quality of care, access to care, patient and caregiver acceptance, and decrease costs by reducing travel for visits.
How Will My Organization Absorb the Influx of New Patients? – Telehealth Cras...Epstein Becker Green
The implementation of the Affordable Care Act (“ACA”) has forced U.S. health care organizations to think about how best to position themselves to take advantage of such a massive change. It has been estimated that the ACA will expand coverage to approximately 32 million individuals lawfully present in the United States. At the same time, the United States’ rapidly increasing aging population will account for an additional 15 more million seniors covered by Medicare. This incredible influx of elderly and newly insured patients is forcing an already overly burdened U.S. health care system to utilize and implement policies to adequately handle this expanded patient population. But how will health care organizations absorb this radical increase in potential patients? Many are exploring telehealth/telemedicine options as an integral component of their treatment paradigm. They also need to address where the additional health care professionals will come from if the United States is not producing sufficient numbers.
In the final installment of EBG’s Telehealth Crash Course series, we will explore the potential health care immigration issues that employers should be aware of, as well as immigrant options that are available to help health care organizations recruit the foreign talent required to keep pace with a changing landscape.
