If you haven’t seen this yet, Kaiser is talking technology for patient care in their latest commercials.  Kaiser has been the forerunner in using technology combined with patient care.  In the related reading below are some additional examples.  Over 3 million people are now using “My Health Manager” the personal health records program from Kaiser, that also integrates with Microsoft HealthVault, which could really be very valuable if you are seen at a facility and by a clinician who is out of network as you could provide your entire saved record.  With all the technology Kaiser has, it leads me to ask this? 

Why Doesn’t Anyone in Congress or at the AMA Talk about their Healthcare – Do They Use Any New Technology Themselves, like a Glucose Meter or a PHR – Magpie Healthcare?

Unlike many others, Kaiser has active participants, doctors and patients, no “Magpie Healthcare” here.  BD
