A number of people asked me at the show what the most innovative thing I’d seen at HIMSS was and my most common answer was Shareable Ink. The interesting thing about Shareable Ink is that they provide such an interesting middle ground between a technical solution and continuation of paper. I remember about 5 years ago when I heard someone describe the perfect clinical documentation system. It was completely flexible. Required little to no training. Supported every possible documentation style. etc etc etc. Then, they acknowledged that what was being described was the paper chart. It was then that I recognized that while EMR can...

A new report from the Highway Loss Data Institute shows that crooks are way more likely to jack a flashy, gas-guzzling SUV — like an Escalade — than they are to steal a sensible, sedate hybrid, like a Prius. This just shows that car thieves are dumber than we thought. If you’re so broke that you need to steal some wheels, you really should choose the make and model that will get you the best mileage. via Grist Post from: BlissTree Car Thieves Disregard Environment, Prefer Gas-Guzzlers to Hybrids (Source: Breastfeeding 1-2-3) Breastfeeding 1-2-3 blogs http://www.medworm.com/rss/comments.php?id=3827043 Thu, 05 Aug 2010 19:34:25 +0100 3827043 http://www.medworm.com/index.php?rid=3827368&cid=t_177422_180_f&fid=38610&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.productivity501.com%2Fsolving-the-wrong-problems%2F6562%2F Conclusion My point was to show that we often try to solve the wrong problems and put a tremendous amount of effort in to fixing the wrong things. If your car doesn’t drive well because the wheels need aligned, you can change the oil all you want with out fixing the real issue. When you are trying to solve problems, make sure you don’t jump so quickly to the solution stage, that you skip the part where you identify the actual problem that needs solved. photo credit car photo credit airport Everything you wanted to know about money from the Debt Free Dude.

Evan and I had interacted a number of times online. Plus, I love an EMR vendor CEO that has a blog. Not just any blog, but one that broadens the discussion about EMR software and provides an alternate view to EMR adoption. Turns out that many people at HIMSS don’t like the hybrid EMR style of software that Evan Steele and SRSsoft are trying to create. There is certainly an argument to be made against it, but personally I like to see people approaching the challenge of clinical documentation in different ways. I also love how SRSsoft focuses so much effort and energy on the physician. If more EMR vendors had this focused, we’d have much better EMR software. Now this kind of...

The gist was that government subsidies to particular manufacturers are putting non-recipients at a competitive disadvantage in obtaining private capital. The author, a former Tesla Motors official, noted that “this massive government intervention in private capital markets may have the unintended consequence of stifling innovation by reducing the flow of private capital into ventures that are not anointed by the DOE.” An article in yesterday’s Wall Street Journal builds on this theme by detailing the political shenanigans surrounding the DOE’s awarding of a loan to Finnish high-end automaker, Fisker Automotive: When tiny ...

They’re an EMR company that I think has taken a different approach to marketing their EMR software. So, I thought it would be interesting to interview Evan on a number of relevant topics related to his EMR and the ARRA stimulus money. Let me know if you like the following interview and I’ll think about doing more of them. Describe what you define a hybrid EMR is.

The hybrid assistance limb, otherwise known as HAL, was developed with the goal of helping the injured and the weak get around. Made by Japanese robotics company Cyberdyne, the exoskeleton is a 10 kilogram (22 pound) machine that belts at the waist and has a battery and computer system at the back. HAL’s bio-electrical sensors, which are attached to the body, are able to capture electromyogram signals on the person’s skin control the way someone walks. As a result, a HAL suited individual will be able to walk up to speeds of 1.8 kilometres an hour. Interested? Well, you can rent your own suit from Cyberdyne for  220,000 yen...

The first is that members of Congress have introduced the Human-Animal Hybrid Prohibition Act of 2009 which would ban the production of certain animal-human hybrids in research.  This announcement has made some bloggers go all apoplectic.  Like Pharnygula who asks "Why do they hate the Manimal." He thinks that this bill will injure scientific progress.  He gives the following examples:One more example: scientists have made transgenic pigs carrying five human genes. The idea is to create animals that can be a source for xenografts — transplanted organs — in humans with a reduced level of rejection. These pigs would become illegal under the Brownback bill, because they mingle a blessedly hu...

Hybrid cars are a good example of this. For example, the cost of the cheapest (that I could find) new gasoline Honda Civic is around $14,800. The cost of the cheapest hybrid Civic is $22,000. Assuming that you drive 13,000 miles per year, the hybrid will save you $369 per year in gas–assuming gasoline costs an average of $2.80 per gallon. So you are paying an extra $7200 to save $369 per year. It will take nearly 20 years before you end up saving money with the car. Even if you consider that the government will give you something like an extra $2,100 off your taxes for buying the hybrid, it will still take nearly 14 years before you break even. Also consider that if you do manage to drive the car for a very long time, in 10 ...

On that we should never back down.  But we also should not ignore other pressing life issues.Wake up people!

From the story: Reports in the British media that grant applications to create hybrid human--animal embryos for research were turned down on moral grounds, have been rejected by the funding bodies and scientists involved.The story broke in the Independent newspaper on Monday, which claimed Stephen Minger, a leading stem cell scientist at King's College London, said that the grant applications may have been blocked by scientists on the funding committees who are morally opposed to the creation of cloned hybrid embryos.

I suspect they believe that by humbling us into believing our lives are no more important than that of animals, it would undermine Judeo/Christiam moral philosophy in general and theism in particular. Some too, I think, wish to have us sacrifice ourselves to "save the planet," in pursuit of the neo- nature worship that seems to be growing.This desire leads some materialists to yearn for scientists to find (or create) a human/chimpanzee hybrid that could interbreed with both species, and thereby "break the species" barrier.
