The UK's @woodcoteewan talks inability to track health outcomes, costs & trends because competing #digitalhealth records don't talk to each other.

He has an obvious solution: make it mandatory biz standardize on one format to reduce costs, medical errors: https://www.digitalhealth.net/2020/03/time-to-light-the-fhir-and-get-to-grips-with-standards/

FWIW to my Canadian tweeps, we do not have socialized health care. We have national health insurance. A very quick breakdown (socialized health care in top, left).

100% agree Robin, Julie: patients need real roles and power. Now the challenge is: spreading the message to more patients that we need them involved before we can make real change.

Tai Huynh @taimhuynh·

What’s worse is you’ve now encouraged comparison shopping with people booking multiple appointments and going to the quicker one without or with no ability to cancel others, creating no-shows meanwhile hundreds of ppl aren’t able to even get in line.

Our research team @UAlbertaSPH & @imaginecitizens is collaborating with @CFHI_FCASS to understand the impacts on patients, families/caregivers & frontline healthcare providers as a result of COVID-19 restrictive visiting & family presence policies put in place in hospitals.

This is how much Ontario’s three top-billing pain doctors charged the province on the nerve block procedures between 2017-2018, compared to the totals of entire provinces. https://www.thestar.com/news/investigations/2020/09/28/thats-an-injection-mill-ontarios-top-billing-pain-doctors-capitalize-on-provinces-lax-rules-running-up-the-publics-tab-for-chronic-pain-management.html?utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=SocialMedia&utm_campaign=Health&utm_content=operationtransparency

⭐️⭐️GOVERNMENT MISCOMMUNICATION REQUIRING IMMEDIATE ATTENTION⭐️⭐️

1. If my son is symptomatic & being tested for COVID, the @ONThealth COVID assessment says to get tested and self-isolate.

2. If my son is symptomatic & being tested for COVID, @ONeducation says to GO TO WORK.

All #patient & #caregiver stories matter. We have become a society that seeks dramatic sound bites but many patients & caregivers don’t have a Kleenex worthy crisis event. Rather they have a lifetime of small events that pile up, one on top of the other, nearly burying them alive

Patient Critical Co-op @PatientCritical·

Anger doesn't get anyone anywhere-but emotion bleeds out of pain & suffering.

Working past anger to build constructive solutions can solve serious issues UNDER the anger.

Labeling people angry or noncompliant makes it easier to dismiss concerns.
