Reports from the 7th Annual Ix Conference

Monday, June 16th, 2008

Over the next several days, I’ll share insights generated from our 7th Annual Information Therapy (Ix) Conference, “WIxRED: Next-Generation Patient-Centered Care.” You can also check back on our site later in the week to see all the PowerPoint presentations. In the interim, you might want to check out what others are saying about it.

Susannah Fox from the Pew Internet & American Life Project put together a nice summary of her favorite moments at e-patients.net. Matthew Holt and Jen McCabe Gorman had a number of reports on June 12 and 13 at The Health Care Blog.

At the conference on June 12, Rachel Block, Executive Director of the New York eHealth Collaborative, provided an overview of findings from the Patient-Centered HIT Initiative. The day before, the California HealthCare Foundation, released their report on PCHIT that I authored with Ted Eytan titled, “Helping Patients Plug In: Lessons in the Adoption of Online Consumer Tools.”
