(Thread) Reflecting today after an incredible few days in Washington DC at #HDpalooza & #NHPC20 which gave attendees the best of both health data & health policy innovation worlds.
@RasuShrestha @ePatientDave @BeLikeLight @vishnu_saxena @DrSimpsonHSR @HealthPrivacy @coffeemommy @KBDeSalvo @fredtrotter @DCPatient 2) How can I express how grateful I am to have attended as a patient scholar?! What an amazing, enriching experience! Thank you @AcademyHealth for continuing to prioritize & model #PatientsIncluded! Clearly it can be done. Conference organizers, take note. #HDPalooza #NailedIt
@RasuShrestha @ePatientDave @BeLikeLight @vishnu_saxena @DrSimpsonHSR @HealthPrivacy @coffeemommy @KBDeSalvo @fredtrotter @DCPatient 3) The takeaways are clear:

3) At your next follow up appt a month later, you ask the dr if your record was updated & the correction was made.

The dr looks at you like:

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
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
