#SCOTUS’ decision not to wade into the #abortion-related matter is a setback for abortion opponents. But it follows the #Trump admin’s announcement that it will scale back #Biden-era efforts to prosecute demonstrators who interfere w/ #PatientAccess to #ReproductiveHealth clinics. The #DOJ instructed its #CivilRights division last month to drop 3 pending actions brought under the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (#Face) Act, involving blockades in #Ohio, #Tennessee & #Pennsylvania.

this is, actually, a fairly good #PatientAccess policy joke

Oh look it's my Mass General Brigham "patient" gateway powered by Epic.

Epic is a a very expensive billing system with some clinical bags tied to the side.

We're building the next generation of patient-centered clinical apps, watch here.

Here's the problem, this is Mass General Brigham, presumably near best practice: "blah blah you owe us $90."

It's not a clinical system.

A clinical system centers you and the clinical experience you are having with your providers, not accounts receivable at the hospital.

HealthPub™ is an ActivityPub conformant medical records and messaging app.

If we are going to pick a profession that will change the most as a result of the application of "AI" it's medicine, right?

"HIPAA is how we protect healthcare data"

"it's also for when we don't feel like doing stuff"

#PatientAccess, #HealthCareAccess, #FHIR

The key to #HIPAA is understanding #HIPAA better than most people, which is trivial to do.

#PatientAccess, #HealthCareAccess

So this is al little like freshman year (to use a class-laden metaphor) in that one can reinvent oneself a bit. (I was however not clever enough to do that freshman year)

Here I am going to be more about patient access to care and medical records data modeling. But interesting.
