2) #PatientAdministrativeBurden (PAB), or the work that individuals need to do to get the care they need, is of epic proportions, especially in the context of chronic illness, multiple co-morbidities, life-altering, and life-limiting conditions. 📈

Next in @PXJournal: #Leadership matters: A conversation w/ Dr. @JamesEKHildreth
Need to start having honest conversations. They're difficult to have about who we are, what motivates us, but the results could be really powerful.

@S4PM 1) A patient with multiple comorbidities has been in & out of the hospital w/what now has been diagnosed as advanced congestive heart failure. At about 5 pm yesterday (Fri), patient & family were told to seek a 2nd opinion asap. Told patient being discharged today. #UnblockHealth
@S4PM 2) The urgent 2nd opinion is to see if the patient is a candidate for a particular procedure. If not, #hospice. Appt can’t be scheduled until ALL records & images on CD are received & reviewed by the 2nd opinion dr’s office (at another hospital, in another state.) #UnblockHealth
1) So you get a copy of your medical records & dive in, reading line by line, trying to make sense of your new lung #cancer diagnosis.

Apple has a section of their website answering questions doctors may have regarding their latest #ECG technology. Where are the answers to the REAL questions #patients want to know about? For example, if I get an alert:
#AppleWatch #digitaltech #wearables #PatientAdvocacy
#AppleWatch #digitaltech #wearables #PatientAdvocacy
1) who do I call: my primary care physician (PCP), #cardiologist, or 911? #AppleWatch #digitaltech #digitalhealth #wearables #Innovation #PatientAdvocacy #healthcare #medtwitter
2) when do I confidently ignore, act upon, or wait to make actionable decisions about alerts I’ve received? #AppleWatch #digitaltech #digitalhealth #wearables #Innovation #PatientAdvocacy #healthcare #medtwitter

1)Follow up appts, essential to a patient’s health & recovery, are listed as part of the discharge summary. These appts are recommended to be scheduled within 7-10 days. To be best prepared, patients need their records. #healthcare #PtExp #PtSafety #PtEng #EHR #GMDD #medtwitter
2)All records from a patient's hospital admission should be AUTOMATICALLY sent to every listed follow-up physician. Hospitals, you know which drs patients need to see; it’s listed in the discharge plans. This step needs to be embedded in the workflow #PtExp #EHR #interoperability
.@Doug_Lind_Say shares being a late bloomer as a kid. He got sick a junior summer during college, he was told he had mono. His life got worse, not better. #WTFix
He realized he probably had the condition his mother had. He had long had a vision of being a man of destiny. He was in bed 22 hours a day. Walk about 50 ft. Exceeding that he would be worse. #WTFix
The medical community offered @Doug_Lind_Say no home. He looked ahead and knew he could not follow his mother’s health path. A mentor shared if you want to make whatever everyone else makes, then you can, if you want something different you have to do something different. #WTFix
