At the surface....
Blogs are the future of journalism, says
Larry Weber, a leading public relations
executive. “Journalists don’t like to
hear that. They say nobody validates
blogs. I say what do you mean? Two
million people are doing the fact
checking that newspapers aren’t doing
any more because they can’t afford the
people to do it.”

Yesterday, I posted about a disappointment in our health care
system. Today, I’m posting about a time when Group Health
was recognized for doing right by our members.
On the way back from my journey, I participated in a yearly
New York Times Journalism Institute, coordinated on a specific
topic, with this year’s being health care. Group Health member

About 20 national media organizations were invited to the
Institute, including Reuters Health and WGBH Boston. Most
critical to Group Health was the presence of two local media
organizations, Seattle Times and Seattle Post-Intelligencer. I
was on a panel with leaders from the Reigenstrief Institute,
WebMD, and the Massachusetts eHealth Collaborative. All
three organizations are national leaders in data exchange

together. Group Health represented the “enterprise view” of
improving health care through the use of information
technology.
Thanks to the use of our impressive advertising spots, Group
Health was able to go first on the panel and set a nice context
of the use of integration, focus on the patient and their
relationship with the physician, and using tried and tested tools.
One thing I noticed is that for all we know about the things we

It takes more than money
Just about a year ago I wrote about Britain's Connecting for Health
program's privacy policy or, more appropriately, their lack thereof.
Their approach at the time can best be described as "opt-NOT" -patients getting care through the NHS would automatically have
their data shared on the "Spine" (the national HIE). No fooling around
with the niceties of opt-in vs opt-out -- patients could only opt-out
by opting out of getting their care from the publicly-funded health
service that they pay dearly for.
The NHS has since backed off from this stance and now allows an
opt-out policy. That's still a far cry from the opt-in approach taken
by MAeHC, and in the context of a burgeoning US movement toward
"personally-controlled" health data management, it's downright
archaic.
The latest report is that despite this change in policy, physicians
themselves are rebelling against the system: 2/3 of NHS family
physicians say that they will boycott data-sharing in the system
according to a recent poll (see Family doctors to shun national
database of patients' records). In a country where individuals have
historically deferred to the government on issues of information

BLOGS
Science & Research
Beginning with this issue, we will feature a few blogs in our Quarterly
Update. These blogs are down-to-earth and focused on the work being
done and the thoughts of those who are performing the work. They are
written by people from diverse work settings but all share the common
theme of process improvement.
Remember, blogs are self-created expressions of interest. Sometimes they
begin with passion and focus, only to later suddenly stop in their tracks.
This is "The Way of The Blog." Our goal is to provide active blogs, but we
will include some sites that are more dormant if they contain information or
examples that are of value.
If you know of or are posting a blog devoted to process improvement, you
are strongly encouraged to email us the link so we can feature it in
upcoming editions.

Providing perspective on key IT trends in the healthcare sector
Break out the Champagne - Another PHR Goes Live
November 7, 2007 by John
Scraping the bottom of the press release (PR) barrel it would seem, Kaiser
Permanente announced today their consumer personal health record (PHR) “My
Health Manager” for members is now live. This is hardly newsworthy as there are a
whole host of PHRs with similar features available from providers today. Even the
statement that it is “free for members” rings hollow. Do they think members would
actually pay for using it?

What I did find interesting in the PR was Kaiser’s statement that the PHR
sector which will culminate in
proceeding this one had 1.6 million register members, representing nearly 20% of
the home becoming the
their total membership. Now that is impressive and something worth writing

Should I do this?
(The transformative power of questions)
•From:
• “How much time/effort does it take to blog?”
•To
• “Is it worth spending 15 minutes a day to let those I
serve know what I’m doing for them?”
•From
• “What’s my commitment to blogging?”
•To
• “What’s my commitment to communicate?”

Challenges
•Technology is in the adolescent phase
•Users are in the adolescent phase, too
•A different communication paradigm
“Some people just shouldn’t blog, even in environments where it is
encouraged. People who have really awful communication skills should not
blog. Employees who hate their jobs, their managers, or their products and
services will find blogging a catalyst for early departure. Executive officers
who cannot resist making overly rosy predictions may find their blog has a
thorny backlash, and the same goes for marketing professionals who cannot
resist strings of enthusiastic adjectives.”

What about Gen Y?
‘The bright guy in product design, triple degree from
the best university, is going to expect, at 25 years of
age, to see this technology in place. And if he's told,
"Well, you gotta use Windows, you can't use blogs or
wikis or instant messaging any of that stuff," he'll say,
"Well, why do I want to work here?" Young people are
not going to go where these tools are restricted.’

Parting thoughts
“Cultures change slowly. If yours is closed, we suggest opening it
before shocking the ecosystem with a blog. If your employees
feel untrusted, you may need to take steps to demonstrate your
faith in them before you encourage blogging. If your culture’s
communications policy is rooted in command and control rules,
blogging will falter. If you don’t want to listen—really listen—then
blogs will be thorny for you and your culture.”
-Robert Scoble & Shel Israel
“It is not necessary to change. Survival is not mandatory.”
