Yesterday, I had the honor to present to Sec. Leavitt and the AHIC on trends and projections for personal health information. As I had only a brief 10 minutes to work with, I needed to put together a dense set of slides to hit the high points of what is happening in the PHR market. [...]

Covisint is one of those companies that shows up in a market, seemingly from nowhere, strikes a couple of partnerships many wonder, where did they come from? In February 2008, Covisint had a co-announcement with AT&T on being selected by the State of Tennessee to be the infrastructure backbone for the state’s eHealth initiative (Vanderbilt [...]
Drop-off/Pick-up: Nice Concept, but will Doctors Use It
Posted in Google, Microsoft, PHR, Privacy, Security, telehealth, tagged Dossia on July 17, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
While I normally do not like to do double posts on any one vendor, I was struck by HealthVault architect Sean Nolan’s most recent post on a new feature they have developed which they call Drop-off, Pick-up (DOPU). Looks like a great feature, especially its ability to receive data in virtually any format. I can [...]

The latest issue of HIStalk mentioned a recent post by noted Harvard Professor Nick Carr (he wrote the controversial book, Does IT Matter). The post addresses the rapidly evolving trend towards “Cloud Computing” and raises a number of issues/implications that cloud computing may present.

HealthVault Developers’ Conference – Presentations Up
Posted in consumer health, Microsoft, PHR, Privacy, Security, tagged Dossia, medical devices on June 18, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Microsoft held its first developers’ conference last week, a sell-out affair with over 500 participants representing some 200+ organizations. From my sources, heard it was a good event for those who are new to HealthVault. For those who have already signed-on as partners, not much new. More a rehash of previous marketing/positioning statements and progress [...]

Posted in Google, Microsoft, PHR, Privacy, tagged Dossia, HealthVault, HIPAA, NEJM, UCLA Medical Center on May 5, 2008 | 1 Comment »
There has been a lot of talk about extending current HIPAA regulations to address non-covered entities, particularly PHR vendors. Many believe that this is what is needed to preserve consumer privacy. There was even an article last month in the New England Journal of Medicine by the creators of the Dossia platform, Indivo that unfortunately [...]
