The case for a smarter health system

If our health is so important, why are many of our healthcare systems operating like they did 100 years ago? We need reform that will create a smarter system.

Like they say, nothing is as permanent as change...you can't help but adopt it..the video is right..if you want to use technology from mp3 players, multimedia and phones, why not use smarter health-care? Of course, IBM is ALSO changing the way you enjoy all that too, but you will not always visibly notice it.

Wake up and smell the coffee, people :)

Whether you like it or not, whether you can see it or not...IBM is changing the world and building a smarter planet...one day at a time..

God bless!

Shame about the irritating background music

And what exactly will prevent my online records from being abused? I am a health writer who often writes things many doctors don't like.

What will prevent some unethical medical professional with an ax to grind from accessing my records and violating my privacy?

This does a good job of quickly making the case for getting our medical data online. I'll be advising my peeps to share it.
