Using a Private Label Twitter Network for Doctor-Patient Communication?
November 14th, 2008 | Popularity: 33% 12 commentsI just read this article about a new generation of Twitter-like tools that allow organizations to maintain private Twitter networks. So I got to thinking what it might be like if a clinician and their patients set up one such network. Kind of like a group visit. I created a mockup, using Yammer, one of the products. It’s a dialogue between a few patients, with the doctor (or name your health professional) chiming in.
What do you think? Could this paradigm move patient-physician communication to patient-community-physician communication?
