💯Total execution fail. And to beat @thegr8chalupa.bsky.social's drum, it could have been mitigated if we designed with patients, caregivers, consumers, tech, and providers all in the same room. As far as execution fails go, this one is pretty epic and seemingly avoidable. 😬 #HITsm #VivEvent25

And in many communities across Chicago, the rushed business strategy to deliver primary care. Patients and caregivers showed up. But when margins weren't there, neither were the stories. Leaves thousands who rely on those clinics to find it elsewhere or forego it altogether. #HITsm #ViVeEvent25

Some folks are getting there! I saw this press release this morning and included it my weekly newsletter b/c this is fantastic. I'm sure more hospitals/startups are working on it #HITsm www.prnewswire.com/news-release...

Love having the band back together, but missing a "tweet deck" like refresh experience still. Maybe they will add that feature in natively? Would make the chat thread much easier to follow - but those are small things compared to great minds getting together... #HITsm

Self and preventive care is it, Jane! Absolutely. And building ecosystems that integrate data that health consumers can understand/feel empowered by and apply in care environments they feel comfortable is in and of itself a form of empowerment/interoperability, too! #HITsm #VivEvent25

....even HRV status is still confusing for providers to make use of (even though I believe its one of the most valuable insights available via wearables so far). #HITsm

We've been asking for this for years. But also, at the same time, my Garmin still can't accommodate nuances for pregnancy, periods, or a run pushing a stroller. I wouldn't be ready for my stats to inform my EHR yet... (as much as I would like to). #HITsm

I am hugely passionate about this, having learned how to manage my son's care at home. We MUST include patient & caregiver voices to do this right - which MUST start being informed by experience. #HITsm

Erica Olenski @thegr8chalupa.bsky.social · 31/01/2025
I also believe the use cases used for this exercise were too inherently transactional. We MUST start with complex, human-centered needs to guide the market strategy - not the other way around. (Or we will keep failing.) #HITsm

The retail health "experiment" coming back to bite us is a prime example of how we didn't do our homework when thinking about broadly assuming patients and caregivers needed/wanted/found value in these experiences before going all in. Tech comes with its own host of examples, too. #HITsm #ViVEvent25

Yes! In what other industry is it this "acceptable" to create so much friction for people who are at their most vulnerable. The marketer/UX brain is so overwhelmed how simple, yet impactful, the little things. Empathy shouldn't be an innovation. But sadly, it's a "differentiator" #HITsm #ViVEvent25

Well that would certainly be interesting! TBH, I'd like to see #accountablecare reimagined with patients/caregivers included. They deserve the ability to hold all stakeholders accountable more than anyone, but there is currently no path to do so. #HITsm

What's frustration without access to resolution? Rage. Maybe patient/caregiver voices deserve equity in accountability. #HITsm

T3 Riffing further on Rasu's, Mike G's, and David H's pointing to patients, prior auth, & channeling Grace C's daily life, it would be so good to have an honest discussion panel about the post-Brian Thompson UHC era where patient rage is mainstream. #VIVEEvent would be brave to host that. #HITsm

LOTS happening in: ⭐Health at home ⭐Clinical trials ⭐Clinical efficiency & productivity ⭐Patient & consumer experience (we need more!) ⭐Wellness, #GLP1s and #foodasmedicine All of these have #AI as enablers. Excited for #ViVE2025 and this #HITsm community to represent!!!

+2 to more patient voices. Patients taking ownership over their health journey is still critical - there's so much opportunity for those people still waiting for better tech to help them. #HITsm

Such a good point. I just had a convo this morning, in fact, about the value of education around philosophy, theology, and logic. Would love to see more "practical" interest in those areas in the year ahead. #HITsm

Erica Olenski @thegr8chalupa.bsky.social · 31/01/2025
I suppose it's borderline wishful thinking, but I'm also looking forward to seeing patient and caregiver voices take (more of a) center stage at #ViVE25 in terms of influence on market trends. Even better would be tangible steps towards including those voices in business strategy. #HITsm

If I had to imagine, my next thought on announcements would be acquisitions/mergers. There has been so much on the provider side over the last decade, but I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the B2B players do the same. #HITsm
