Because of interoperability, I will have no more work to do… and I will retire and/or fire myself before/by 2030! #HealthInterop2030 @ClinovationsGov

Wherefore art thou, #HealthPolicyValentines? Oh colleagues, where are thee, #HealthPolicyValentines? Each year I’d find them, colorful and fine. Now I sift through silence, it’s a desolate void, Though our wealth of material may have us destroyed. Once, they flowed freely,

UPDATE The lab tech played around in my chart and found it under images. Btw we are still waiting for the fax to come thru… which comes out in PAPER which they then SCAN back into the medical record. Thank you to the lab tech who really believed I knew what the heck I

I know you're tempted to look at HTI-2 and USCDIv5, but first - get your comments in on the USCDI+ Maternal Health dataset by July 31st! I'll be helping process comments, so give me a lot of (valuable) work to do!

Excited to join Stanford Biodesign at the #SBDHealthtechInnovationPolicy conference in Washington DC on May 8, 2024. Available online, but really - come to DC. In person is better, because: 1. It's free 2. It's in DC, an easy train ride from major metros across the eastern

I moved into my house in #DC #Ward6 in 2018 and I noticed this my first month here. I'm frequently sprinting out of my house at 7a on Mondays to physically put items into the back of the truck from our bins. - 2x/wk our alley looks like a 3rd world country. (Direct quote from my

Common w/ virtual telehealth startups, no e-Access or FHIR APIs. Crazy that #virtualhealth doesn't conform to national EHR patient access API standards? I guess if you don't bill much Medicare, nothing's enabled? Thoughts @chrissyfarr @nikillinit @GabrielSPerna @boltyboy

Given crappy primary care access, I'm trying @carefirst's payer-led virtual PCP model (CloseKnit via @EdenHealthInc). Mostly good (access, care, providers), but NO e-access to my EHR! They use @athenahealth, but patient access, only thru app. They can EMAIL me a PDF?!

So @Clear is closed at #LAX Terminal 6 right now. It is not OK to be non operational at major airports. What am I paying for then?!

I barely used Twitter/X this year. Who actually used this app this year and found it valuable? I’m contemplating calling it dead. But part of me does t want to give the effort to kill Twitter that power.

I was today years old when I realized that “out of pocket” doesn’t mean what I think it means. And totally get what @nikillinit was getting at w/ his blog name 😂 https://t.co/2zR1Q4nwMh #GenX

Hmm... still #Twitter to me and I've been on this platform much much less frequently than in years past. But it was a great run for many years. Happy 15! #MyXAnniversary

It’s 2023 and we still can’t get decent cell coverage for phone or data, or WiFi… in the DC to NYC corridor on @Amtrak?! We are so lacking in infrastructure in comparison to Europe, China, more. 🤯🤬

Well I’ll just register on-site I thought… 20 min to stand in line to register, 20+ min after charging my credit card nearly $3k - they just sent me to another 20 min line to force print a badge b/c they can’t retrieve my info. Isn’t this a tech conference? #vive23
