This document discusses the potential for "wisdom of crowds" and user interaction to drive personalization in healthcare. It summarizes findings from reports on hospital information portals in Europe, which show that current portals do not effectively display quality of care information for consumers. The document concludes that improved user-friendly portals are needed to share treatment quality, patient satisfaction, and experiences. This could drive hospitals to improve quality if patients' choices are influenced by the information.
This document summarizes research on factors influencing the low percentage of women entering the radiology field. It finds that women are more drawn to specialties with flexible hours, direct patient contact and female role models. While half of medical students are now women, only 25% of radiology residents are women. The document examines surveys that show lifestyle factors and lack of mentors/exposure to patient-focused subspecialties negatively impact women's decisions. It concludes that increasing female mentors and earlier exposure to radiology, especially patient-contact subspecialties, could help address the gender imbalance.
This document provides an overview of the development of logic and physics that motivates the need for a new approach called transdisciplinarity. It discusses how non-Euclidean geometries and Gödel's incompleteness theorems challenged classical logic. It also explains how quantum mechanics experiments revealed phenomena like wave-particle duality and nonlocality that are contradictory to classical physics. This introduced issues of incompleteness and plurality into physical theories. The document argues that transdisciplinary logic is needed to provide a formal characterization of theories that accounts for these developments across disciplines.
Mr Johan Hjertqvist presented "The Healthcare Revolution for Efficiency and Customer Centricity - with open information in the driving seat" at the Healthcare Executive Circle in Helsinki on Feb 3 2011.
This document provides an introduction to Lean principles and their applications in healthcare. It discusses how Lean aims to identify and eliminate waste from processes to improve quality, reduce costs, and increase value for patients. Examples are given of healthcare organizations that have successfully applied Lean approaches to reduce wait times, infection rates, costs, and improve other outcomes. Both criticisms of Lean and its potential applications in radiology are mentioned.
Dr Arne Björnberg spoke at the "Health Rationing Conference" in Rotterdam on Dec. 9. He stressed the need to "stimulate healthcare to become a service industry".

1. Can the wisdom of crowds drive
care personalization?
Some reflections on the need for quality of care
information and user interaction
Johan Hjertqvist
Health Consumer Powerhouse
Continua Health Alliance seminar
Brussels, Jan 17, 2011
2. The HCP perspective
• Personal healthcare requires:
• Individualised treatment
• Individualised communication
• How to navigate healthcare to optimise
outcomes?
• Still very little has happend
• Drivers
• Cross-border healthcare EU
• Financial crises
• Value-added performance
• Personal care, right-responsibility balance.

7. Hospital information portals
(based on EHCI 2009 and HCP report ”How to
choose the best hospital?”)
• There are four countries in Europe (NL, DK, DE,
UK) that offer hospital information portals on the
web
• There is a number of regional or less developed
initiatives (for example Test d’Achat in BE or
annual rankings published in Le Point and
L’Express in FR)
• There is a large number of websites related to a
single hospital or a chain of insurers offering
fragmented views.

10. Results from study research
• None of the hospital information portals performs
well in all assessed categories
– QCI is displayed in an over-simplified way where vital
information is missing for the consumer
– Or QCI is presented in a too complex way, which seems
overwhelming for a lay-person’s know-how
– Navigation: no user centered design.
2011-01-20 HCP Jan 17, 2011 - Continua
11. Some report conclusions
• There is a need for a development of
hospital/healthcare information portals
– User-friendliness
– Trustworthiness
– Accessibility
– Sharing of experience – lay person reporting
• User hesitation:
– Barriers, fear
– Requires far better guidance and interaction
– Web information only part of the solution.
2011-01-20 HCP Jan 17, 2011 - Continua
12. The future
• Key question for the future:
– Will the patients’ choice drive hospitals
towards better quality?
2011-01-20 HCP Jan 17, 2011 - Continua
13. Social media in Swedish
healthcare – HCP study
• Covering every healthcare region
• Weak application of social media in Swedish
healthcare (while high penetration in other parts
of society)
• Unmet user interest
• Healthcare reluctance:
• Legal excuses
• Low understanding of gains
• Cultural clash
• Fear of losing control.
2011-01-20 HCP Jan 17, 2011 - Continua
14. The right moment
• Opportunity to partner with the new EU Directive on
cross-border healthcare:
– Requirement for each Member State to establish national
info centers
– Availability of healthcare, quality outcomes, safety
standards, access to medication, administrative procedures,
complaints and appeals etc.
– Even price information might evolve from this new directive
– Multilingual IT portals
– EU portal with pan-European comparison
• Essential to highlight the personalised approach, i.e.
user influence on design of information and services!
