The Danger of Stroking a Tiger
By MIKE MAGEE
On the evening of December 29, 1940, with election to his 3rd term as President secured, FDR delivered these words as part of his sixteenth “Fireside Chat”: “There can no appeasement with ruthlessness…No man can tame a tiger into a kitten by stroking it.”
Millions of Americans, and millions of Britons were tuned in that evening, as President Roosevelt made clear where he stood while carefully avoiding over-stepping his authority in a nation still in the grips of a combative and isolationist opposition party.
The Germans were listening as well and sent a different type of message as the Luft...

Blockchain Could Save Healthcare Billions Every Year
The following is a guest article by Michael Kim, Senior Vice President/CIO at MultiPlan.
In recent years, blockchain has been one of the most-hyped technologies: A public ledger that lives on a network of computers, each validating any changes in real-time. Unlike traditional distributed databases with centralized management, blockchain offers a shared database, providing security, transparency, traceability, and speed. While the shared ledger idea can be traced back to the 80s, blockchain technology emerged in 2008 as the foundation for decentralized currency, namely Bitcoin.
While it is true the cryptocurrency mark...

What It ’ s Like Being Me
I love asking people this question: What is it really like being you?
We can see how people speak and behave on the outside, but what do we know of their interior perspective?
What I love about this question is that it invites real intimacy and empathy. It’s an invitation into trust. I feel honored when someone does their best to answer honestly. It’s fascinating to discover how someone frames and experiences their interior world, at least to the extent they can articulate it.
I thought it would be interesting to answer this question too, if only to see what comes through when I try to answer it.
Ce...

Searching For The Next Search
By KIM BELLARD
I didn’t write about ChatGPT when it was first introduced a month ago because, well, it seemed like everyone else was. I didn’t play with it to see what it could do. I didn’t want it to write any poems. I didn’t have any AP tests I wanted it to pass. And, for all you know, I’m not using it to write this. But when The New York Times reports that Google sees ChatGPT as a “Code Red” for its search business, that got my attention.
A few months ago I wrote about how Google saw TikTok as an existential threat to its business, estimating that 40% of young people used it for searches. It wa...

Brother ADS-4900W Scanner Review for Healthcare
High speed scanners are an extremely important technology in most healthcare organizations. As we work to automate everything using NLP and AI, it is important that all of the information about a patient is electronic. In the past you may scan these patient documents, consent forms, etc to avoid having to store them in a separate paper chart. Now, a nice combination of OCR, NLP, and AI allow a healthcare organization to take these scanned documents and turn them into structured data that can be used to improve the care the patient receives, improve the business, or both.
One of the most recently announced high speed ...

Epic Strikes Deal With Apple To Create Mac-Friendly Version of Its Platform
In a deal that has gotten a fair bit of attention – and could lead to much bigger things – Epic has agreed to introduce a version of its EHR that should be easier to run on Apple devices. The agreement should please physicians, a large percentage of whom have historically owned Apple products.
By associating itself more closely with Apple, the agreement could potentially raise Epic’s profile with consumers, whom the vendor has not really cultivated in the past.
After all, Apple is known globally as having one of the friendliest interface designs available anywhere and continues to possess one of the world’s s...

My Trial of the New Abbott Freestyle Libre 3
There are many compelling features on the new Abbott Freestyle Libre 3 and I may decide to switch; but I may wish to first try the new Dexcom G7 once it ' s FDA-approved. But I won ' t wait forever...In my 15 years of writing this blog, one thing I have never done is something I occasionally see some younger, less-discerning members of the blogging community do: which is to pimp their blogs (and themselves) out to receive free so-called " blog-ola " . I ' ve been blogging since 2005, and I have never endorsed a product in order to get free things, nor have I ever used my blog to even solicit free stuff from companies which...

Doing Digital Right: Leveraging Automation as the Connective Tissue to Bridge Operational Gaps
The following is a guest article by Patty Riskind, CEO at Orbita.
During a discussion among a group of industry leaders, one respected colleague said she wished we would all quit using terms like “disruption” and “transformation.” Why? Because it sends the message that the industry’s current performance is decidedly inadequate – and implies we need to completely start over.
I thought her viewpoint made sense. The truth is that – even if they wanted to – most healthcare organizations are not in a position to overhaul their infrastructure, business model and workflows. Instead, they must find ways to continue...
