(From the Global Gathering 2014 #hxlgg)
Everyone has already accepted the reality of Electronic Health Records. But the current responsibility for management of EHRs lies with hospitals and health institutions, rather than the patient. Why?
It is the reason why #bigdata has such weight. But to the patient... It's not big data. It is their data. It's personal.
So off the back of this, the critical patient-management issues for EHR and Big Data going forward are:
- Personal data security - catch and release, temporary or occasion based insight
- Data synthesis - what does all their personal data sources mean? For some, it will be too much... What does this mean for the role of the doctor?
- Data motility - where the patient goes, the data flows...
What does this mean for your business?
