Digital Dimension Of Healthcare Paper – Global, mHealth, Halvorson

I was just skimming the Digital Dimension of Healthcare whitepaper which has as one of its authors – George Halvorson from Kaiser.  There’s not a lot of new information in here if you’re well read on the space, but I like their framing of a fourth space for health delivery along with their two dimension matrix of opportunities.

The other piece that I’ll pull out here is the Six Principles that they identify:

1. Set the direction, and commit to it
2. Balance patient confidentiality and information sharing
3. Empower patients
4. Adapt payment systems
5. Reduce barriers to regulatory approval and licensing
6. Accelerate the healthcare evidence base
