How Technology Will Make the Biggest Impact on Health Care Reform
Would you like to ask a question of George Halvorson, the CEO of Kaiser Permanente, about health care reform and technology?
Please join me this Wednesday, November 18, 2009, from 2:30 – 3:30 pm New York time. I’ll be live-tweeting a webcast with him.
You have a special opportunity to submit questions to him.
To ask a question, please include it in a comment below. Or if you prefer, tweet it to me @smallbiztrends. I will make sure your questions get passed along to him. I can’t guarantee he’ll have time to answer all questions, but I will definitely pass them along.
Here are some questions that have already been floated by members of the Small Business Trends community:
1) Does there really have to be so much paperwork involved with health care? Will we ever get to a system like some countries where it is paperless and takes a doctor or hospital just a few clicks to submit a claim?
2) Will things get better under the health care proposals being floated in Congress right now, or will the proposals increase bureaucracy, paperwork and costs?
3) Technology sounds great — but how exactly will technology make a difference in health care to the average person?
4) How will technology in health care impact those small businesses in the health care industry? What about those not in the health care industry?
5) Will technology make health care better? Or just more impersonal?
I’m sure you can think of other great questions. Here are the event details:
What: “How Technology Will Make the Biggest Impact on Health Care Reform” with George Halvorson, the CEO of Kaiser Permanente

PS, Many thanks to HP which is bringing us this event, and whose sponsorship of this site makes it possible for the Small Business Trends community to have this opportunity to participate.
It will be just as effective to health care as it is to public education.
I will attend this webinar. I am planning to return to USA and I want to be informed about the health care situation. What should I think about when it comes to HSA, plans for small business owners, etc.?
I am interested to know if George Halvorson is aware of different ad-hoc groups in this field, e.g., American for Free Choice in Medicine (AFCM.org) and Freedom and Individual Rights in Medicine (WeStandFIRM.org).
I have to explore kaiserpermanente.org site, e.g., the recipe blog and podcast section.
The point that needs attention is that Health Care Reform will be affected by Technology.. for the better…
Sounds like a great topic and I would be interested in hearing what he has to say about digitizing & unifying medical records. Tragedies like Michael Jackson’s death and abuses like doctor shopping for prescription medications would be decreased if doctors could consult a unified medical record that would document the full extent of treatment a patient is undertaking.
I’m concerned about several things: first, it’s not possible to be an informed and empowered consumer in the medical marketplace as it’s now operating, not for provider services (prices) and not for insurance (prices and choice of services); second, too many people (insurance and government) are trying to get between me and my doctor in making medical decisions for me; third, consumers (patients) need to be fully aware of the choices available to them and the costs (tangible and intangible) associated with each choice; fourth, increased complexity is highly correlated with increased cost – simpler is (generally) better; and fifth, how do we fairly “reward” responsible medical consumers and “punish” irresponsible ones?. How is technology addressing these health care concerns?
