#hcsm – May 6, 2012

Watch the live #hcsm stream from May 6, 2012 at 8pm Central here (new window). If you missed the chat, you should be able to come back and scroll through it again, any time. (Availability of archive depends on how Twitter API is working during the chat. I recommend searching for #hcsm directly on Twitter in real-time to watch/participate in the chat.)

Topics:

    1.  Patients: if HCPs (or orgs) were lurking on SM/social networking sites to learn more about patients, what would you want them to observe/learn/take away? (And providers, when you’re engaging w/ pts or lurking online, what do you hope to learn/observe/take away?)
    2.  Next gen HCPs – do they need to be taught HCSM, or is it assumed they know it? And if they know it, will they use it to help pts? What should they “know” about HCSM?
    3. Pts want data.But can all pts process/interpret/deal w/ raw HC data?Does some data need communication to be delivered w/ it?

  3. Can SM help increase understanding and ‘compliance’ of discharge instructions (or other HCP orders)? How?

Topics:

  1. Is it fair to ask a patient if they are engaged in HCSM or use rating sites? Does this bring bias into the consulting room?
  2. Pharmacists don’t get as much attention as docs, but they have powerful impact on communities. How can they use social media?
  3. There’s a lot of negativity toward pharma. What do you want from them? How would you want them to engage online – or not?

Topics:

  1. Not everyone is convinced that HCSM matters. How do you convince HC providers to get online – or to get social?
  2. What’s the difference between mobile health (or #mHealth) and social health?
  3. We all have so much more data @ our fingertips now: providers, HC orgs, and patients alike. How do you deal w/ so much data? (Example – patients can self-track behaviors, symptoms – how do docs deal with that data? How do patients learn to assess, manage that data?)

Topics:

  1. How is SM changing HC for the new providers entering the field? How do new providers stay on top of changes?
  2. There’s a recurring  theme of needing ‘sherpas’ for docs. But what about patients? Should there be online ‘sherpas’ or navigators for them, too?
  3. Video is still greatly underutilized as a SM tool. Benefits of using? How are you using videos? Best practices/tips? Faves?
