Here we go again, back to the soap operas and and attention getting commentaries.  I am guessing once more, based on what I read here that we have a return of the image70s folks with 8 track tape values.  Dr. Berwick has not even had enough time in the job to get started, so what in the world do these folks think you get with a nomination-immediate gratification?  If that’s the case we voted some questionable personalities into office as that’s a pie in the sky, especially by today’s world that we live in.  Again, what’s up with this?  Of course there’s no other person suggested either I am guessing so more disruptive soap opera antics in store. 

The reasons given here are weak, with the reasoning of lack of dealing with insurance companies to, it’s all about technology and thus this is where the 8 track mentality comes back into play.  That’s the answer area with algorithms that are utilized today for all major decision making processes and 8 tracks can’t see or acknowledge that.  I meant what I said about bringing in IBM Watson here to bring some intelligence into the decision and law making processes.

the President hired his Algo Man, so what’s taking these folks so long?  It’s all about those algos today.

If you haven’t noticed we have some high frequency algorithms working their way into healthcare.  There are algorithms that create accurate data and some that create desired results and they are not always the same and sometimes hard to tell apart.  That’s how we all got soaked by Wall Street. 

High Frequency Electronic Trading Methodologies And Algorithms Work Their Way Into Healthcare With Human Bodies Losing Liquidity With the “Data Game”

At least before entering into emotional driven movements as such, get some Algo Men on board that can help with the analysis process and can we cut out the OMG and soap operas?  Wall Street and the President have their Algo Men, so what’s taking these GOP folks so long?  Again if they had IBM Watson in there to query and look at real numbers and analysis information we wouldn’t have this emotionally drive power play stuff going on.  BD

If you look at Dr. Berwick’s record and where he has been and what he had done via business intelligence analysis processes with ethics that had lead to better healthcare, I think we might not be seeing this on the agenda and a full opportunity given to the doctor to do his job, again there’s no immediate gratification here no matter who you place in there so get your facts and Algo Men together and let them deal with lobbyists.  In case you never saw the trailer for Money Driven Medicine documentary from 2009, take a look below and you can see some input and insight from Dr. Berwick and with that I’ll end this post.  BD  

Money Driven Medicine

Obama slid Berwick into the position last summer via a recess appointment, causing consternation among his Republican opponents champing at the bit to grill Berwick in a nomination hearing. Obama re-nominated Berwick in January, setting the stage for a confrontation over who should have the job of implementing Obama's signature healthcare reform law. Berwick faced a grilling last month on the other side of the Capitol from Republican representatives on the House Ways & Means Committee. That experience will likely pale in comparison to his reception before the Senate during a confirmation hearing, judging by the tone of the letter sent out today.

The senators wrote that Berwick's lack of experience in the insurance arena and years-old statements about the British healthcare system make him an unsuitable pick for the job.
