The Revolution of
Participatory Health
and
mHealth
Participatory Health
Active Participation of
– People
– Healthcare providers
– Wellness providers
– Public health
– Pharmacies, labs, others
– Health plans and payers
Active Participation of
People
Whether
healthy
or ill
Patients
Consumers
Children
Adults
Seniors
•Are encouraged to become active
participants in their wellness and health
matters
•Change their life style
• Keep a personal health record
•Spend personal resources on living
healthier
•Research and learn about relevant health
topics
• Be involved in cost issues for their
healthcare and participate in healthcare-
related cost decisions.
The Vision of mHealth
Consumers, People,
Patients

Emergency Services
Clinicians and other
care providers
Administrative Staff
What is mHealth?
Enables continuous communication with the provider
Brings the power of the Internet to the mobile user
Patient/consumer to control and manage their essential health data on mDevice
Enables care provider to document and get decision support at point of care
New applications using disease management applications
New way to enable interoperability in healthcare
Much different and bigger than telemedicine or “wireless hospital applications”
Requires restructuring
Enables participatory health

Problem
Patients often see their clinicians only periodically and for short periods of time.
Patients need to remember all health symptoms and health related events (observations of daily living – ODLs) within a very short visit that may be emotionally laden.
Change: Pattern of Care
• Periodic visit when needed
• Patient needs to visit care
provider
• Too little time for
communication
• Patient not a participant in the
decision process (financial and
clinical)
• Wellness providers not
included
• Continuous care focus
and communication
• Person/Patient
participates
• Wellness providers
included
• Care community linked
concerning patient data
access and resources
Types of Communication
1. Patient to provider (pre-engagement)
a. General inquiry
b. Appointment
c. Insurance coverage or cost
2. Provider-patient interactively
a. Appointment confirmation/reminder
b. Reason for visit: Agenda
c. Referrals and other care management communication, e.g. „How r u?’
d. Other
3. Patient education

Problem
Physicians and other practitioners cannot memorize all formularies, guidelines, protocols, health plan instructions, or all of new developments in the scientific body of medicine.
Easy access at the point of care
Provide access to web sites through smart phone browsers
Accessing Information at the Point of Care
Patient health information
Insurance eligibility information
Care decision support information Formularies
Guidelines and protocols
Disease management information
Access to scientific body of medicine
Other
Problem
Physicians and other practitioners often provide patient care without knowing what has been done previously and by whom, resulting both in wasteful duplication and in clinical decisions that do not take into account critical data related to patient health.
For over 2,000 years,
the patient was rarely
informed about the
medical circumstances.
Disease details were left
to doctors. As recently
as 1965, patients were
not allowed to see
medical books in
publicly funded libraries
HIPAA gives the
patient the right
to a copy of the
medical record
