If they’re not using sharp objects, they’re making us wait.

And wait. And wait...

I’m on record:

I’m willing to

get one of

MORE FORMS

Here’s a revolutionary

idea:Let patients**

help!

**the most under-used resource in

health care

“Gimme my damn data.”

Why can’t they both access the

same patient data?

If doctors andpatients could

freely exchange information and data,

who knows what might happen?

HIPAA gets blamed for

the information blockage …but that’s a

cop-out.

This is what happens with

a paternalisticapproach.

Empower the patient!

current health care delivery system

To survive your trip through the health care car wash,

stay inside the car by asking questions.

And demanding real answers.Participate fully.

Live - or die - by the decisions you make.

Own your health care byowning your data!

Annual health care spend in the US:

$2.3 Trillion-with-a-T**2008 number 2014 = +$3 T

Our current conundrum?We want cutting-edge care,

we want second, even third opinions, we bitch about $100 co-pays, we want to never have a bad

outcome. Oh, and by the way, we don’t want to

pay for it.**

**Is this perception, or reality?

It’s both.

Transparency on provider cost is essential.

Put it on the practice’s web site.Even its Facebook Fan page.

No, I’m not kidding.
