Links To A Few Other Blogs

Here are a few recent blog posts worth reviewing.

• Google recently provided some additional details about their PHR solution at HIMSS. Several bloggers talk about it.
  • Running A Hospital
  • eHealth provides a quick summary of the points from the conference
  • The Life As A Healthcare CIO has a few entries abou tthe conference and Google
• I just found a blog called Pioneering Ideas by someone at the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation that does some great work around healthcare.
• Comments about the recent articles on the shortage of physicians in the US on Our Own System.
• If you care, there is lots of discussion out there about Jarvik (promoter of Lipitor) and Pfizer pulling his sponsorship after he was shown to be misleading.  Pharma Marketing Blog is a good place to start on this.
• I will leave you with one last one which is a good analysis of how WalMart will affect US healthcare.

Now, just the other day, I commented that I did see much talk about YouTube in healthcare. In the past 24 hours, two things have come to my attention on this.

• Allscripts posted a video on YouTube (see below).
• Glen Beck, a conservative talk show host, had a bad experience at the hospital and put it on YouTube getting 800,000 hits, generating lots of press, and thousands of comments. (see below)
