HealthDot Interview: Health Care Blogging and Social Media

Earlier this month I attended and spoke on a panel addressing some of the legal implications for health care bloggers at the 2007 Health Care Blogging Summit.

During one of the breaks I had the opportunity with a couple of my health blogging colleagues, Enoch Choi, M.D. who blogs at MedHelp.org and medmusings and and Fard Johnmar of Envision Solutions blogging at Envision 2.0 and Healthcare Vox, to do an impromptu interview with Scribe Media who was capturing video content at the event.

We had some great discussion on the issues resulting from the growing use of blogging and social media by health care professionals and its potential impact on the health care industry.

Plan To Attend: Healthcare Blogging Summit 2007

The details and program agenda are now up for the Healthcare Blogging Summit 2007 (Spring) to be held in Las Vegas on April 30, 2007 at the Venetian Hotel and Resort. The event will again be held in conjunction with Consumer Health World.

The event is billed as, ". . .the premier professional networking and education platform, devoted to examining the impact of blogs and social media on consumer health and healthcare industry." After having attended the first Healthcare Blogging Summit in DC in December 2006, I would agree.

I will be participating in a panel with a group that should make for some lively discussion and debate (see below). For a complete listing of the sessions and speakers check out the full agenda at TrustedMD.


Panel: Open Healthcare – Learning to Live in the Brave New World

Openness, Controversy and Crisis Management in Blogs and Social Media

UPDATE:
Dmitriy Kruglyak was recently interviewed as a part of an article, Kaiser Sizing up blogs, 'social media' (subscription required), by the East Bay Business Times. The article appears to discuss the Justen Deal matter and the invitation extended to both Kaiser and Justen Deal to appear on a panel discussion at the Healthcare Blogging Summit.
