Sounds like he needs a job, Paul!
Who, the singer or Halamka? John already has three or four . . . .
Brilliant! Simply brilliant!
Around 3 minutes in, I was wondering how Halamka and Blumenthal would possibly be harmonized together. Around 3:10 I was answered in Barbershop fashion.
Eagerly a-waiting the punk-rock or hip-hop cover of this...
Paul: there was an interesting article in yesterday's globe which described a research study encompassing 35 hospitals that isolated a small group of chronically ill patients. These patients were actively supported after their discharge in an attempt to lower the instances of re-admissions. Was Beth Israel one of these 35 hospitals?
Nope, not that study.
I am one of thise people who just experienced the unworkability of the medical system, and the disharmony between various physicians, facilities, services, and records when I encountered a problem with one of my kidneys.
I was working to bring about electronic medical records between 1991 and 95 and recenty having begun to consult with management medical industry clients, I find myself amazed that now 18 years later they are still an anomaly.
I enjoyed the video. Would that the harmony so well done in the video translate to efficient medical systems and harmonious patient-centric accountabilities.
Wow. THAT was clever. In the spirit of music-based science (alas, particle physics, not medicine), I offer this hadron rap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j50ZssEojtM
