Well, you asked for, the Social Media in Healthcare Panel Discussion is here!

We have assembled an all star group of presenters for the first Meetup / Tweetup dedicated to social media in Healthcare. Speaking of which, did you know that our group is on facebook, linkedIn, twitter, and facebook? The goal of the meetup is to look at the current state of healthcare social media utilization and explore the possible future changes that could or should become reality.

Our all star Panelists include two successful HCSM using Twitter-Docs, a CEO of Healthcare Social Media Company, and a Social Media Online Media Writer. We are working on a few other heavy hitters too, but this is a great start! Thank you for your suggestions Lynn and Micheal. If you have someone great to suggest or it is your forte, please reach out to me ([address removed].)

Agenda for July Meetup:
6:30 - 7:00 PM - Meet, Greet, & Tweet (w/some healthy snacks and drinks)
7:00 - 7:30 PM - Presentation by Amir Kishon, Ph.D., CEO, Wellness Layers
7:30 - 8:30 PM - Healthcare and Social Media Discussion Panel

Panelists
HCSM Physician - Jen Dyer, MD, MPH aka @EndoGoddess
HCSM Physician - Arthur Lubitz, MD, aka @NYCAllergyDr
HCSM Consultant – Dr Amir Kishon, Ph.D., CEO, Wellness Layers
HCSM Media Professional – Jessica Levco, Ragan

Questions will be taken from the audience but also please submit questions for our esteemed guests to discuss.

Please feel welcome to answer these questions yourself on the discussion board as well.

Here is a preliminary list:

1. How does Social Media change the provider or medical center / patient relationship? Give one positive and one negative example.
2. Providers: Why do you practice #HCSM? What aspects do you avoid?
3. Providers: How do you handle the increased access your patients may have to you?
4. Social Media breaks down the privacy barriers for both patients and Providers. Where are the possible areas to utilize #HCSM without increasing exposure for patients and providers? What would you change if you could?
5. Has the increased access and communication #HCSM bring improved the health of your patients or clients while reducing office visits?
6. What should be our goals for #HCSM for the next six months?
7. Who is doing #HCSM right and why.

We hope all can make it but the room can only hold about 60 so RSVP early and make sure you give up your spot if there is a change in plans.

We hope you are having a great summer so far and we look forward to seeing everyone!

Best Regards,
Alex Fair
