21st Century Cures: What Song are People Singing?
Manage episode 323179975 series 3242797
Hello and welcome to Informatics in the Round, a podcast designed to help everyone become a part of the dialog about topics in biomedical informatics.
I’m Kevin Johnson, physician and informatics chair at Vanderbilt. @kbjohnsonmd on twitter, www.kevinbjohnsonmd.net on the web!
-------------------
In this episode of Informatics in the Round, we get some follow-up information. A few episodes back, Dr. Trent Rosenbloom led a discussion about impending changes and a lot of national concern about a statutory response to information blocking that has resulted in patients having immediate access to clinical encounter summaries but also lab results. We were wrapped in anticipation of the fallout from implementing this change, and have eagerly awaited hearing from a patient and from Trent. So….
Here we are! Digging into the aftermath. The nuclear option, or tempest in a teapot?
Trent is Professor of Biomedical Informatics, nursing, medicine and pediatrics. He directs the Vanderbilt patient portal, known as MyHealthatVanderbilt. MyHealth for short. He’s also an avid runner, with his own marathon. Here's a link to his marathon: https://www.harpethhillsmarathon.com/
Sarah Bland is a regular guest on this podcast. By day, she’s a senior project manager and all around funny person, but, as you’ve been learning and will hear more about today…she has layers. She’s also at Vanderbilt.
We were able to get a friend of Trent's, a geek, and a musician all in one in the form of Karl Kersey. Karl’s band, Doonthebray, represents yet another form of music in Music City. And then there's Karl—He’s low key, with a wonderful dry wit, and asks the hard questions. Trent didn’t disappoint. He knows this stuff, and had great information to share both in response to questions we asked during the episode, and questions other listeners will undoubtedly be asking.
