Patient Health Data, Information Governance and Patient Care

Selected By: matthew

Due to how Meetup.com works, I can't unschedule this event. I don't want to delete it since it is a great idea that we will execute on, just need a venue and a few speakers. So I set the date for Christmas as a place holder for now. When we get back from San Francisco we will set this up properly at a venue large enough to hold us.

Thank you for being members of Health 2.0 NYC and supporting and suggesting great events like this one!

If you have suggested speakers, would like to sponsor an event, want to help run our events or a venue, please feel free to contact me.

Be Well,

Alex Fair

How to find the balance between information availability to healthcare professionals and patients, and maintain a high level of security? Who should be allowed to access patient data, and how patient data can be used to improve population health? How to achieve data sharing between organizations so it would improve patient care and act in their best interests?

Any chance we can get Esther Dyson back as a speaker? She had a few points about this that may talk about how some of her companies are using patient health data now!

Actually, it would be great having Esther as a speaker so to give us some insights on her "quantified self" expression! I would really like to see Gilles Frydman and e-patient Dave as the speakers. I do believe it could be an excellent panel and a great topic to discuss.

We at Universal EHR Solutions would be happy to provide our insight on how the leading electronic medical records companies are safeguarding patient data in the age of electronification/digitization of patient records and the interoperability between providers and systems.

(Increasing Access to Care)
(Making Inforamtion Security and Compliance Easier) (Improving Availability of Information) (Planning for Operations Continuity) (Mobilizing and Extending the Healthcare Ecosystem)

Let's be innovative and skip into to the land of heresy : Why shouldn't patients have access to their health data ? Who is more interested in their health than they themselves ? Will doctors spend more time on a patient than the patient will himself ?
With the release of data, new tools can be developed that help patients analyze their condition.

I didn't notice this meetup was available to rsvp for :(. I will lean on a wall, stand in the back, where ever there is space(trust me I'm skinny). I just want an opportunity to network with others who are exploring ways to provide actionable insight on health data, as well as, get feedback on my product and vision. A consideration to my request is all I ask.

This group is dedicated to advancing innovations that focus on improving patient care with the active involvement of Patients, Physicians, Nurses, Administrators, Engineers, and even Lawyers. If your interest is in improving the practice and performance of medicine, than this is the meetup for you.

Borne of the Health 2.0 international movement, Eugene Borukovich started the NYC chapter in 2008. Our chapter has since grown to become the largest healthcare innovation focused meetup in the world, running events that focus on specific topics such as the impact of social media in Healthcare or our Startup pitch contest called "Pitch Yourself into the Shark Tank." The investments, partnerships and collaborations that have come from this meetup are myriad, as we purposely foster the genesis, growth and development of innovative technology companies. A few of the companies that have presented: Phreesia, Zweena, ZocDoc, HelloHealth, YourNurseIsOn, DrChrono, ComScore, HealthLeap, MyHealthExperience, Healthrageous, WellApps, and a few dozen others.

Be like me, come with an idea, leave with a company. I run this group as my way of saying thanks for helping my concept get from the drawing board to over 250,000 searches for care and the attention of Patients, Physicians, Hospitals, Employers, and VCs across the country with our new healthcare marketplace.

...but this isn't about me, it is what over 1,250 healthcare innovators can do for healthcare.

Who presents here?

Patients who have defined issues to be addressed and / or designed apps to improve their health and the health of others
Physicians who create innovative care models, develop solutios, or simply are looking for new ways to address the problems they see
Entrepreneurs who create new innovative healthcare solutions
Hospital Executives driving development and adoption of new ideas
Nurses who reinvent nursing management or point of care solutions
Investors, Angels, and VCs looking for the next big thing
Pharma, Insurance, and Diagnostics companies that look for new technologies and companies to work with
Pharmacists who design better medication management, adherence, distribution or other systems
Game Designers who make patient education fun
Quantification companies that help people self-monitor (see also Quantified Self meetup)
Engineers, Programmers, and Hackers that invent and enable new care paradigms
Designers who create popular apps
Innovative government leaders seeking positive change
Reporters and Bloggers who want to see the cutting edge before it happens and spread the word
and so many more amazing people and companies...

Mostly what we have are the leaders of the NYC healthcare innovation scene. By putting us all together in one place, we are creating the future of healthcare.

We are always looking for start-ups and individuals to present the ideas or products they are working on. Please be welcome to join the conversation, propose a topic, or suggest an alternative format. We are a largely user-driven group, so suggest a topic and we will do the most popular event.

We also enable more established companies to get their message out to the healthcare innovation community through sponsorship and speaking. So if there is an event, challenge, or product release you would like to talk about, please contact me.

Thanks for visiting, we hope to see you soon!
