The online health revolution (it’s not too late to jump in)

April 11, 2017 By Susannah Fox 4 Comments

Thanks to Joyce Lee, MD, for resurfacing this talk on Twitter today! In watching it again, I’m struck by how the data needs to be updated, but the insights don’t.

June 30, 2015 By Susannah Fox 3 Comments

One year ago this week I was in Sweden to deliver a talk at Almedalen, a festival of ideas held on the island of Gotland.

In the spirit of “public Q&A” I’d like to share my answer and ask people to add tips about other resources in the comments. Up until July 2014, I led […]

Patient Records by ken fager on flickr

Health care is in danger of missing the point. (A repost from 2014 that’s relevant today thanks to announcements at HIMSS.)
