 | naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @HealthcareScene Hi everyone! We have Jay LaBine, naviHealth CMO, ready to roll. Looking forward to the discussion! #HITsm |
 | Spencer Health Solutions @spencerhealth RT @HealthcareScene: Welcome to this week's #HITsm chat hosted by Jay LaBine, Chief Medical Officer at @naviHealthPAC on the topic “Seniors and Technology” Details: https://t.co/PqLG8A8aZ8 https://t.co/o7iyTznry5 |
| John Lynn @techguy Hey Everyone! Looking forward to today's chat. I write at https://t.co/dVVgSUFGPA and organize a few conferences @HITMarketingPR and @EXPOdotHealth No major plans for the holidays. Heading to Utah after Christmas though. #HITsm |
 | EMR, EHR and HIT @ehrandhit RT @techguy: Hey Everyone! Looking forward to today's chat. I write at https://t.co/dVVgSUFGPA and organize a few conferences @HITMarketingPR and @EXPOdotHealth No major plans for the holidays. Heading to Utah after Christmas though. #HITsm |
 | Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer Hello #HITsm friends! I feel like I haven't joined one of these chats in forever, it's so nice to be able to connect with you all today. I'm Ashley from Rhode Island, and I wear a lot of marketing hats @Carium. Excited about today's topic! |
| John Lynn @techguy @naviHealthPAC @HealthcareScene Great to have you hosting Jay. After this, you're going to have to create your own Twitter account ;-) #HITsm |
 | Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara Samara from @MDMagazine here! Looking forward to today's discussion and to having some time off at the end of the year to watch football and relax by the fire. #HITsm https://t.co/fbpWMZm7Yq |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Chuck's my name! Workflow's my game! (1) Also 3D printing (2) & VR (3). Plus, increasingly interested in sustainability, especially in context of (1), (2) & (3)! By some definitions (diner/movie discounts) I am a senior. Thus, I have a personal interest in today's #HITsm topic! |
| John Lynn @techguy @amariedauwer @CariUM Glad you could join Ashley! What are your holiday plans? Anything fun on the agenda? #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @Bossoft @EMRAnswers Thanks for joining the discussion today! We're very interested in seniors and the ability to improve their health through technology. #HITsm |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene T1: What are some of the biggest hurdles for seniors and their adoption of new or evolving healthcare technology? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/DzfJP1Z4Su |
 | Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC hi #hitsm family im' MICHELle and IVE got a sticky keyboard because spil[led tea on it yesterday |
| John Lynn @techguy @wareFLO Glad you could join Chuck. Can't wait to hear your "senior" perspective. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @RosenfeldSamara @MDMagazine Who are you picking for tonight's game? #HITsm |
 | Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman T1: Training or education is hard to find for new tech. Seniors need to know just hot to accomplish a task and not watch a 15 min video on the foundation of certain tools. #hitsm |
 | Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth Hi! Janet Kennedy with the @GetSocialHealth podcast and @SpencerHealth. Accoring to the @AARP I've been a #senior since I was 40. What really counts? The @IHOP discount menu! #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Biggest hurdles for seniors re tech? Frankly, money. Yes, usability, attitudes, access are all important. But, simply put, some of the most usabilty & accessible tech is too expensive both for folks on limited retirement incomes & the healthcare systems serving them. T1 #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @mshlcurrie @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Better use voice recognition ;-) I hate when I spill on the keyboard. It's impossible to clean and the keyboards you can clean aren't very good. #HITsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @techguy @CariUM The #DauwerDuo helped get our Christmas tree up last weekend! And we have so many parties between friends & family over the next couple of weeks! One of my favorites is my annual cousin's matching Christmas pajama party. How about you and your family, John? #HITsm https://t.co/xGLj3Li44i |
 | Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Matt here from @naviHealthPAC. I'm a content producer born and raised in Bristol, CT. The holidays will include a ton of family and food - couldn't see it any other way. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Wow! So, you're espousing workflow specific training for seniors too? #HITsm https://t.co/9XotSIaYGj |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft T1: Great question. Some of the hurdles include real-time messaging and coordination of care from inpatient to outpatient facilities. This includes meaningful information and follow-up that's actionable for patients and caregivers. #HITsm |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara T1: Seniors are not aware of all the #HealthTech options available to them and it can be difficult to teach them how to use the technology properly. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC T1: My great aunt loves to use her FitBit to track her steps - in fact, she uses it daily. It's helped with her physical and mental health. Even though it was challenging for her to get started, she absolutely loved it once she understood the technology. #HITsm |
 | Bob Brown @ReasObBob @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Aloha! Bob Brown of @MosaicaPartners. Consultant, author, and occasional #HealthIT practices iconoclast. #HITsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @techguy @naviHealthPAC @HealthcareScene Nice to meet you, Jay! I second what John said :) #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Fairy tales can come true It can happen to you when you're young at heart For it's hard, you will find To be narrow of mind if you're young at heart #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft RT @wareFLO: Biggest hurdles for seniors re tech? Frankly, money. Yes, usability, attitudes, access are all important. But, simply put, some of the most usabilty & accessible tech is too expensive both for folks on limited retirement incomes & the healthcare systems serving them. T1 #HITsm |
| Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth I think there are levels of adoption ease. Were seniors using technology in their jobs or life? Early Adopter outlook? I also think there's a point where #seniors think - I'm done learning and am happy with what I have now. #HITsm https://t.co/PdCfKIfWRR |
| John Lynn @techguy First, I think it's unfair to just say "seniors" as a category. There are very technical seniors (see: @wareflo) and there are those that aren't (see: my mom). So, the first step is to not assume that seniors won't adopt technology. #HITsm |
 | Erin Kelly @Thinking4Health RT @HealthcareScene: Welcome to this week's #HITsm chat hosted by Jay LaBine, Chief Medical Officer at @naviHealthPAC on the topic “Seniors and Technology” Details: https://t.co/PqLG8A8aZ8 https://t.co/o7iyTznry5 |
 | Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin It'd have to be the rate by which we're advancing tech, right? Seniors are far slower than the mean to buy into new tech, and even slower to adopt to its unique usability. #HITsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @RosenfeldSamara @MDMagazine Hey Samara! So nice to connect with you today! #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @Bossoft It's a challenge to connect to providers in a meaningful and actionable way. What could we do to allow for more engagement from the provider community? #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy We have to remember many seniors were in college when computers still used punchcards. They have lived through a much higher rate of tech evolution so their onramp to smartphone apps could be on an unpredictable stop on the information superhighway. #hitsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @amariedauwer @CariUM My son was so into the Christmas tree, he convinced my wife to buy a 2nd tree. So, we have 2 trees. One that looks like it could be in Nordstrom and another we call the Charlie Brown tree. We're mostly just staying home for the holiday, but heading to Utah after Christmas #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy @wareFLO Much better way of making the point I just made. #hitsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft T1. There are many varieties of "seniors". They all need relevant information. There's the ones who know and love technology and those who just need help and healthcare, and could care less about how it works. Align to the needs of each to create value. #hitsm |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara RT @NotADoctorKevin: It'd have to be the rate by which we're advancing tech, right? Seniors are far slower than the mean to buy into new tech, and even slower to adopt to its unique usability. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @RosenfeldSamara @MDMagazine I was thinking football (Utah vs Oregon). I thought we didn't watch basketball until Christmas. #HITsm |
| Spencer Health Solutions @spencerhealth We have found that #seniors vary in their acceptance of new technology. That's why our goal is to design the most intuitive, user friendly #UX as possible. Make someone's tech savvy level irrelevant. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @RosenfeldSamara Agreed, it's a challenge because it takes more patience and time to get them comfortable with the technology. #HITsm |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC As an official "senior," by just about anybody's standard, I think small keyboards on phones are a problem because of the eyesight/dexterity issue some seniors face. Technology? Don't have a problem with that. #hitsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @naviHealthPAC Create usable systems that limit silos and connectivity issues and provide meaningful information. #HITsm |
 | Patrick Campbell @RealPatCampbell Don't think this only applies to seniors—but it seems to be the ease of application combined with effectiveness. I'm unlikely to change what I've done for decades unless it is both more efficient and effective than what I'm already doing. #hitSM @naviHealthPAC |
| John Lynn @techguy This is a great point. And even awareness of cheaper alternatives that are designed for seniors. #HITsm https://t.co/kgWs2hI5QM |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara @naviHealthPAC And that population might prefer more traditional means of care. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy How did it help with mental health? Was it the value of physical movement for her mental health? Or something else? #HITsm https://t.co/ngzTryJ3dc |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @techguy @CariUM That's awesome! I want to get another small tree too, but one we can plant outside after Christmas🌲 It's pretty amazing enjoying the holidays with little ones and seeing how excited they get. #HITsm |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene T2: How can today’s tech better serve the senior population in keeping them healthy and/or better equipped to manage their chronic conditions? Are there non-clinical solutions to address SDOH such as transportation needs, housing, meals, etc? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/bIik4pbPjz |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @Matt_DiV @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Hey Matt! 👋🏼 #HITsm |
| Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth Well said @wareFLO! Plus, do my parents need an iPad when they just want to read their email and play solitaire? #HITsm https://t.co/2CSm3RMPWd |
| John Lynn @techguy I've seen this first hand. It's not that they can't learn, but they're just kind of tired of learning. They're satisfied with what they know. I know learning takes more work the older I get too. #HITsm https://t.co/65JFXOvPsV |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @RosenfeldSamara @naviHealthPAC I think that depends on the level of illness, dont you? When we're sick, we just want to be well. When we're well, we are more eager to try new things, or use technology enabled solutions, wearables, etc. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft RT @HealthcareScene: T2: T2: How can today’s tech better serve the senior population in keeping them healthy and/or better equipped to manage their chronic conditions? Are there non-clinical solutions to address SDOH such as transportation needs, housing, meals, etc? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/bIik4pbPjz |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC T2: Addressing the non-clinical SDOH for seniors is incredibly important for maintaining their overall health. It seems like we should have realized this a long time ago. #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @GetSocialHealth I run into this with my grandmother a lot. How can family caregivers break through that barrier with #seniors if there is a specific tech that would help them? Or, even better, should we try to keep educating them despite pushback? #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @amariedauwer @CariUM Ours are getting older. It brings new joys, but I just hope they don't kill it for my baby. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO RE #SDoH (transport, housing, food, etc): Big smart city X systainability nexus here. See @HIMSS interview w/@mcgibbons How the Smart City Movement and IT Are Transforming Health https://t.co/MwNLzaUPw1 T2 Columbus (where I live) won $50M based on this connection! #HITsm T2 |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman T2: Tech can make a senior's day easier through simpler reminders or auto-reordering. Vid communication instead of purely over the telephone plus the ability to share health info means not requiring a family member/caregiver to attend appointments for people living alone. #hitsm |
 | HealthTech Magazine @HealthTechMag T1: One of the main hurdles for seniors when it comes to new technology is its ease of use. #HITsm #seniorcare |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara T2: Seniors want to stay at home. Using #HealthTech and remote patient monitoring, they can have more freedom while staying on top of conditions like #hypertension and #diabetes. Plus, services like @Uber can be used to help transport seniors to their appointments. #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy I would push back slightly. I think the curve of value/effort just gets steeper. If you can show them value and decrease complexity, then you can still get buy in. All about #adoptability. #hitsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @jeremycoleman @techguy @wareFLO I totally agree with this. There's a pretty big difference when you're talking about a 55 year old versus a 75 year old. Although, even my 78 year old grandmother takes her BP every day at home, has an iPhone and uses Facebook! #HITsm |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin They need to meet at the practices already adopted by the senior population: telemedicine visits, interactive scheduling and tailored reminders. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft T2: Absolutely. In some cities they have taxi services, for the elderly, volunteers who take seniors to healthcare appts.Housing and access to healthy foods are a national healthcare crisis. And we should provide all seniors with wearables whenever possible. #hitsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft RT @NotADoctorKevin: They need to meet at the practices already adopted by the senior population: They need to meet at the practices already adopted by the senior population: telemedicine visits, interactive scheduling and tailored reminders. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @NotADoctorKevin Agree. Telemedicine is a huge help for seniors. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @jeremycoleman This goes back to not grouping them all into the "senior" category. I was suggesting I've seen some people like it. Many don't have this issue. Although, to your point, it really just means the value/effort equation just changes for these 2 groups of seniors. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO $29.95 Amazon Fire works just fine! #HITsm (even runs the latest Twitter client, so they can participate in #HITsm tweetchats!) |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @jeremycoleman Seniors who live alone and suffer from depression and loneliness could be well-served by video chat to give them more social connection to the outside world. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Thanks for sharing and joining the chat. P.S. Don't forget to add the #HITsm hashtag to your tweets so everyone can see what you share. |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @techguy @jeremycoleman The value depends on the level of care needed / or illness / chronic condition. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft THIS!!!! 👇👇👇👇👇👇👇👇#HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy Right again. I think we need not forget about the education part of #SDOH and how that changes for seniors. Ed is a multidimensional thing. #hitsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @RN_Solutions @HealthcareScene That's a great point. Some doctors and nurses have no interest in embracing digital interaction with patients. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy What a complicated question with so many layers. I'll just say that my favorite part of tech is its ability to connect people and combat loneliness. #HITsm https://t.co/nmgHr3W7gx |
| EMR, EHR and HIT @ehrandhit RT @naviHealthPAC: T2: T2: Addressing the non-clinical SDOH for seniors is incredibly important for maintaining their overall health. It seems like we should have realized this a long time ago. #HITsm |
 | Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba Hi guys. I have a migraine but I'm here . What'd I miss? #hitsm https://t.co/H6ZPlueLxY |
| John Lynn @techguy I think the caregiver is the key to senior tech adoption. #HITsm https://t.co/TPBEV6PYwH |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara @techguy @MDMagazine You know I'm watching basketball! I'll stick with your Utes tonight. #HITsm |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin @naviHealthPAC @jeremycoleman My wife works in outpatient care, her main task is just following up with patients to make sure they got direction from their doc and are on goal to improve. Every day she tells me about a new patient who just wanted to talk for an hour-plus. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @RosenfeldSamara @MDMagazine I've watched some bball too. Actually, I'm a BYU fan, so we call them Yewts. I'm still pulling for them tonight though. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Better yet. In fact, waay better, is #socialVR. Compared to looking at a postage-stamp sized talking head, one feels as if one is actually, phyiscally present together. Single most important contribution of VR will be helping the isolated, lonely & depressed to CONNECT #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @Bossoft @NotADoctorKevin Agreed! #HITsm |
 | Janice McCallum @janicemccallum Agree @techguy. Baby boomer seniors are a very diverse group. One common trait as we age, we get presbyopia & need reading glasses to see, esp in dark. Little screens/small typeface is hard to see. #HITSM |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @jeremycoleman @techguy Absolutely. Even at my age, understanding different ways to connect with my doctors and care teams using #technology is a huge help. Better understanding how that tech works is crucial. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy I know you're new here, but don't forget the #HITsm hashtag ;-) #SorryCouldntHelpMyself |
| Spencer Health Solutions @spencerhealth @wareFLO Ha! I'm still explaining what Twitter is! #HITsm |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene T3: What factors/functions in wearable technology should be specifically designed for seniors to enable engagement? What are some current barriers with the technology? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/uMKADmDqeT |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @techguy @jeremycoleman When grouping people to understand their wants & needs -- seniors or otherwise -- it's best to use psychographics as opposed to demographics. Nowadays age often has little to do with capability or interest. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @wareFLO Solving for social isolation will be very impactful to improve overall health and well-being. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft RT @HealthcareScene: T3: T3: What factors/functions in wearable technology should be specifically designed for seniors to enable engagement? What are some current barriers with the technology? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/uMKADmDqeT |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba T3 Seniors need intuitive tech and tech that learns. This is particularly useful for those who will suffer some measure of dementia or who are prone to falls. Fall protocols can be built into models. #HITsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @ShereesePubHlth Sorry to hear that, Shereese! Migraines are so tough. Hope you feel better soon ♥️ #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO My kneejerk reaction: tech designed specifically for seniors may do one thing well, but it tends to not do a lot of other things well that successful consumer tech necessarily masters. Better approach is to adapt successful consumer tech to senior needs. T3 #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV RT @wareFLO: Better yet. In fact, waay better, is #socialVR. Compared to looking at a postage-stamp sized talking head, one feels as if one is actually, phyiscally present together. Single most important contribution of VR will be helping the isolated, lonely & depressed to CONNECT #HITsm |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin I'm not sure if they should be the ones prompted with notifications and app updates—maybe that should be on their caregiver to receive and relay back to them. #HITsm |
 | care.coach @careDOTcoach RT @naviHealthPAC: @wareFLO Solving for social isolation will be very impactful to improve overall health and well-being. #HITsm |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba @amariedauwer Thanks #HITSM |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft T3: great question, bc not all wearable tech has actionable information. For example, Apple watch asked for emergency contacts, in case of a fall. Their technology asked if I fell when I was dancing and missed a real fall completely. Again, we need to perfect our tech. #hitsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Reminds me of a study that gave cells to the patient to track their diabetes after discharge. They'd call them each day to get the info they needed. It saw amazing results. Just not sure if it was the call itself or the data that caused the result. #HITsm https://t.co/AXLNE0Yi5Q |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman T3: Communication of condition in a private and respectful way would be huge. What if a wearable could flash an alert to people around about increased likelihood of falling? Or if blood sugar was too high/too low? Alert it someone was outside a geographical zone? #HITsm |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC T3 And, it's not just wearables. There is serious progress being made in the use of various kinds of sensors in the home that are non wearable. Must look at monitoring as a holistic thing, not just something attached to a person. #HITsm |
| Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth As I read about President Carter's falls, I want to see technology help manage simple things like gait and steadiness. The team at @BrilliantSole, a startup in NC has #gaming tech that could be adapted. #HITsm https://t.co/YUrIVsCoFd |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @spencerhealth One time while I was driving my 90 year old mom across country during a #HITsm tweetchat taught her to read tweets and tweet back my response. Was a hoot. (I think got thru 3 tweets and one garbled response, but hey, it's the principle!) |
| John Lynn @techguy If you have the right senior. I'm quite sure it would go viral on YouTube really quickly. #HITsm P.S. I have a secret love of old people. I LOVE visiting old folks homes and talking with all the old people. |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara T3: Medication reminders are huge to improve adherence in the senior population. That info can then go straight to the provider, too. #HITsm #HealthTech |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC T3: Falls are such a big problem for the senior population. Using wearable technology can help prevent falls as well as alert caregivers as falls occur. #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman And the alert could be audible/visual or just calling a caregiver. That flexibility could flex over the life of the condition. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @RosenfeldSamara Great point. Adherence is a huge problem for seniors. #HITsm |
| EMR, EHR and HIT @ehrandhit RT @techguy: What a complicated question with so many layers. I'll just say that my favorite part of tech is its ability to connect people and combat loneliness. #HITsm https://t.co/nmgHr3W7gx |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin @jeremycoleman Couple that with prompts or ability to notify a care giver at that very moment—give them context as to what their daily risks are, and what they can do, instead of requiring them to wait for the next visit to follow up on it. Learn on the go. #HITsm |
 | Julie Maas @JulieWMaas IMO voice is going to be a really helpful component of successful solutions #HITsm |
| Ashley Dauwer @amariedauwer @NotADoctorKevin That's a great thought. I think it depends on what the reminders are. Medication reminders directly to seniors may be useful, and appointment reminders may be better suited for a caregiver. Everyone's needs will be different so I think personalization is key here. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Need workflow tech to do this. Most EHRs don't rely on workflow tech. Therefore not very good at prompting anyone, not even docs. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @naviHealthPAC Huge problem. And I was alert, able to get up (after a while) and although bleeding, was able to walk home. It was more embarrassment than anything. But it made me think about the real world implication of needing help. #HITsm |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @wareFLO Yes. #SocialVR is a digital world we can visit/inhabit as opposed to the analog -- real -- world that may not be as pleasant for some people. #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @NotADoctorKevin Right on, what if something triggered 12/24 hr's worth of vitals to a nurse/EMT that could assess if further medical action was needed? #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy My headache just disappeared now that you arrived :-) As far as what you missed, @amariedauwer shared some adorable pics. @jeremycoleman is dropping amazing insights. @wareFLO declared he's a senior @RosenfeldSamara is talking sports @naviHealthPAC is awesome! #HITsm |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin @amariedauwer Oh for sure—I was thinking more like data that may not be immediately translatable to them. Give that to the professionals, and task them with getting the right action points across, you know? #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC RT @Bossoft: T3: T3: great question, bc not all wearable tech has actionable information. For example, Apple watch asked for emergency contacts, in case of a fall. Their technology asked if I fell when I was dancing and missed a real fall completely. Again, we need to perfect our tech. #hitsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @amariedauwer @NotADoctorKevin Medication reminders and smart pill bottles are awesome. I've seen a lot of this demoed at conferences, and the use of remote patient monitoring with the medication reminders is a great combination for caregivers and seniors alike. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @techguy @amariedauwer @jeremycoleman @wareFLO @RosenfeldSamara @naviHealthPAC Everyone should look so great with a migraine, @ShereesePubHlth - #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @ShereesePubHlth Great point. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @NotADoctorKevin @naviHealthPAC @jeremycoleman It's such a powerful thing. I've loved all the efforts I've seen to have kids spend time with seniors and things like that. It's valuable for the senior and the kid. In college I'd go visit this lady who was bedridden. It's some of my favorite college memories. #HITsm |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin @wareFLO Would we have an entirely different team manage this side of care, or do we just need to keep fixing the EHR situation? #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @ReasObBob Participating in #SocialVR very much like actually living someplace, w/neighbors looking over the backyard fence, chatting in a way that is just like chatting with people over your backyard fence in IRL. To me does not even seem like social media #HITsm https://t.co/wb8mSXqMZk |
| John Lynn @techguy @spencerhealth @wareFLO lol...try doing this for a living and then trying to explain it to your parents. #HITsm |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene T4: How can we encourage seniors to embrace tech that will help them ‘age in place’ whether it’s by helping with their care plan, creating a more open channel to their providers, tracking their rehab schedule or reminding them to take their meds? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/3SffCdyrCR |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @techguy Absolutely. I was blessed to have my great grandparents around until my teens and even my late-20s. Being able to visit with them and just spend some time is something I'll always cherish. #HITsm |

| John Lynn @techguy I've loved the solutions that target seniors and do the 5 things seniors really need to do well. Kind of a middle ground of what you describe. #HITsm https://t.co/nulyM2XHyz |
| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie #hitsm I'm having technical difficulties proving seniors are not the only ones to be foiled lol https://t.co/4eC8h1uZla |

 | Healthcare IT Today @hcittoday RT @techguy: Reminds me of a study that gave cells to the patient to track their diabetes after discharge. They'd call them each day to get the info they needed. It saw amazing results. Just not sure if it was the call itself or the data that caused the result. #HITsm https://t.co/AXLNE0Yi5Q |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @RosenfeldSamara I feel like this is such a simple goal for seniors to have on a day-to-day basis. Take your meds and chart it into the tech. Gives them a daily task to do as well. Then, to get recognized by your provider for participating is the reward. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Invisibles are the best. Unless you're afraid of privacy stuff :-) #HITsm https://t.co/gGA0MDhYfD |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC RT @HealthcareScene: T4: T4: How can we encourage seniors to embrace tech that will help them ‘age in place’ whether it’s by helping with their care plan, creating a more open channel to their providers, tracking their rehab schedule or reminding them to take their meds? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/3SffCdyrCR |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman T4: Not to be too cliche, but seniors want tech that works for them not another chore where they work for a tech "gadget". #HITsm |

 | Dalton Ruer @QlikDork #HITSM - Self driving vehicles to give shut ins some freedom to not be dependent in family care givers to get to ... everything. Medical appointments sure, but I can't imagine the mental stress of being secluded. |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @NotADoctorKevin Sadly, EHRs, which could have been much more, are now just 36B dollars of deadweight we'll be hauling around for decades. Basically, other systems, not called EHRs, will take up many of the functions EHRs should already be doing, like flexible, transparent notifications #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @amariedauwer @NotADoctorKevin Tech that you can personalize more than just changing the colors of the background or the strap for your watch. Is that even a thing yet? #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @mshlcurrie @NotADoctorKevin I'm sure they do new ideas are very rare these days. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Yep! I have so many stories of great experiences at these places. My favorite was a lady named Deb. She had diabetes and one day I visited and she'd lost both her legs. At Halloween she dressed up as a green M&M. It was amazing and taught me a lot about hard situations #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @TechNurseJon I know! I know! #HITsm https://t.co/rWKSLRUXox |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara T4: I think it's important to tell the senior that the #HealthTech could improve their quality of life from the comfort of their home. Explain how the tech works and how a lot of the monitoring is being done without them necessarily knowing. #HITsm |
| Spencer Health Solutions @spencerhealth @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC OK - This is an awesome opening for a discussion of what we do @SpencerHealth. We won't hijack the conversation but encourage you to check us out after the #HITsm chat. https://t.co/wRCRzCy3DL |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV RT @RN_Solutions: |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO I talk to lots seniors using VR to get out of the house, hang with friends, etc. Last night, spent 2 hours chatting to 71 & 81 year old. THEY were instructing ME on how to setup/customize my new #OculusQuest! #socialVR will be key to #AgingInPlace IMO! #HITsm T4 |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin @techguy @RosenfeldSamara It always is! #HITsm |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @jeremycoleman Kind of how clinicians feel about #EHRs. They are a f flawed response to the wrong question. #HITsm. |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft T4: Aging in place is POWERFUL both physically and mentally. Technology that allows 4 a better line of communication, including fall alerts / prevention, med reminders and real-time tracking of heart, BP, rhythm. I'd also add video visits, telemedicine & home health. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy It's amazing how good this technology has gotten since the "I've fallen and I can't get up days." It's awesome what an accelerometer, gps, and a cell signal can do. #HITsm https://t.co/CyDLYFnpAK |

| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @RosenfeldSamara Spot on. I think a lot of times seniors can become overwhelmed with the technology itself. Simplifying the tech conversation and focusing on the impact for that patient may help. #HITsm |

| Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth My Dad's biggest challenge? Managing his passwords. I use @LastPass but even that program might be too much for him. It needs to be as simple as possible and be something I can access. Right now it's all written down on little pieces of paper. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy I find it's important to realize how integral healthcare is in a senior's life. Visiting many seniors, their schedule often revolves around doctor appointments. it's a huge topic of discussion for them. #HITsm https://t.co/aUJFnEttEj |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @QlikDork That's a great one! Get @Tesla in the #HITsm chat! Companies like @Uber and @lyft provide this type of opportunity - but explaining to seniors that they can get into a stranger's car or even how to use the apps may be the hurdle to overcome. #hitsm |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara @naviHealthPAC Yes it definitely can be. The most important thing is to tell the person how the tool can help them, then shift to anything in particular that needs to be done to ensure it works properly. #HITsm |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara @techguy And tech can be used to remind them of those appointments! #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft @techguy How good its gotten and how "off the mark" it was, was.....tbh..... quite alarming. #HITsm |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene T5: What is the best approach to acclimate seniors to new clinical technology? Is it a different approach if it’s non-clinical technology? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/yxUi1LMPtg |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy One thing I haven't heard discussed but is a huge deal for seniors is med rec. When you have more than 1 doc. Tech should step in and help them standardize/communicate their health story to all care providers. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @QlikDork Hadn't thought too much of self driving vehicles for seniors. Makes a lot of sense. I want them for myself too though. #HITsm |
| Shereese Maynard, MS; MBA 😷 She/Her @ShereeseMayMba T4 Seniors understand the value prop more than most CEOs. You need only to demonstrate how the use of tech increases independence and control over what's important to seniors. They get it; don't fool yourself. #hitsm. |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @GetSocialHealth @LastPass There must be a better way. If only us civilians had something like virtual SSO so we could access all our online applications without having to memorize so many passwords. #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft One word. PEOPLE. Hands down. We need people to acclimate seniors to technology, and that includes open lines of communication, compassion and heart. (add a dose of patience) #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO BTW, I've noticed a travel app is giving away VR headsets. Obviously, they want to make that money back selling tours, but I do wonder when healthcare and mental health apps start doing the same, perhaps paid for my health systems or insurance... #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @techguy That's so true. Repetitive questions from the doctors that could be answered through data sharing from technology can open the doors to more meaningful conversations at their appointments as well. #HITsm |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman T5: I'd put it on the list for this mythical care navigator/coach that we need more of. I know it exists in some cases but its too rare and underutilized. #hism |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV RT @naviHealthPAC: @techguy That's so true. Repetitive questions from the doctors that could be answered through data sharing from technology can open the doors to more meaningful conversations at their appointments as well. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy One of my favorite stories about tech for seniors was Alexa for those with Alzheimers. Alexa doesn't mind being asked 100 times a day what time it is or what day it is or what's the weather outside. #HITsm https://t.co/oeaMfYA85X |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @ShereesePubHlth Agree. Nobody had to convince seniors to use a cell phone. High value and relatively low learning curve. #HITsm |
| Janet Kennedy @GetSocialHealth In person with a health coach. Videos, brochures, phone calls are all great support tools but nothing beats a face-to-face training environment. #HITsm https://t.co/UaXPIXEBRN |
| care.coach @careDOTcoach T4 #HITsm shameless plug: https://t.co/xQZZbJr5B8 #aginginplace |
| Jeremy Coleman @jeremycoleman @techguy Hopefully the portal/show that adds a visual aspect to it can do even more. So ask Alexa to show pictures or videos, even play games to help retain memory. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @wareFLO I'll be interested to know if social VR is as powerful as social in real life. My guess is that it would have similar benefits when it comes to social isolation, but I'm not sure. There's something powerful about touch too. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Well, don't do what I did: Buy my mother a $1500 #GoogleGlass. Thank heaven it was returnable, no questions. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC T5: Providers should take it upon themselves to educate their patients, members and caregivers on how they should take care of themselves once they leave the four walls of the hospital to optimize their recovery and overall well-being. It's all about people. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @GetSocialHealth Face-to-face is key! #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy I've been thinking this through with my mom who's finally going to get a cell phone. She'll just call and text. Was thinking she could use Uber/Lyft, but then as I thought it through, I figured she probably wouldn't. #HITsm https://t.co/3XRWAVv9kf |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV RT @GetSocialHealth: In person with a health coach. Videos, brochures, phone calls are all great support tools but nothing beats a face-to-face training environment. #HITsm https://t.co/UaXPIXEBRN |
| Kevin Kunzmann @NotADoctorKevin Face to face—the care provider, the patient, and whoever is close in their circle of care. Go through each person's role, establish short-term and long-term goals, and schedule a follow-up to assess how the usability has been. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy Lots of hand holding and patience. #HITsm https://t.co/2mbJD4gcbd |
 | David Harlow @healthblawg @GetSocialHealth I think it depends on the individual. F2F will be best for many, but not all, as in any other demo #HITsm |
| Samara Rosenfeld @RosenfeldSamara T5: A lot of this has to lie on the physician, right? Patients trust their physicians so it is incumbent on the professionals to familiarize themselves with both clinical and non-clinical #HealthTech and then present their senior patients with what can work best for them. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO @techguy 2-edged sword. Comes up in conversations in #SocialVR Some folks who really should get out of the house & into the real world just stay home in VR (they ration it!). But others, who physically literally cannot leave the house? It's a true godsend #HITsm https://t.co/XncMvVmXKy |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @wareFLO That's great. 🤣🤣 #hitsm https://t.co/Ihmvzemp2b |

| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @jeremycoleman @NotADoctorKevin I think this is an incredible tool for seniors. I'm not sure who the market leaders is in the US https://t.co/WgcIHxtYSM #HITsm |
| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @techguy Begin the conversation by focusing on the value it is/will provide to THEM. Be a sherpa. That's what they care about. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @jeremycoleman Indeed. Voice should, can and will be able to do more. Although, the out of the box functionality is pretty powerful for seniors as well. #HITsm |
| care.coach @careDOTcoach @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC We've found it helpful to get a warm intro to the tech from a trusted family member, social worker, nurse, or doc, and to frame it around healthcare goals, like helping them w/ COPD, CHF, diabetes, etc. Though we help with loneliness, it's stigmatizing to focus on that. #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @techguy I can't imagine talking my mom into using a ride-share app after all of the public school educators in her life telling her to "not get into a car with a stranger." I wonder how Uber/Lyft overcome this obstacle with its older users? #hitsm |
| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @Matt_DiV @techguy Interesting point! #HITsm |
| Boston Software Systems @Bossoft RT @techguy: @jeremycoleman Indeed. Voice should, can and will be able to do more. Although, the out of the box functionality is pretty powerful for seniors as well. #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @Matt_DiV I think that necessity will drive it. #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @NotADoctorKevin Incremental goals are great! It's about taking it at the patient's pace and not generalizing for the masses. Again, personalization! #hitsm |
| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie #hitsm Back in the saddle again! https://t.co/QlwStBhvwU |
| Healthcare Scene @HealthcareScene BONUS: Are doctors, hospitals, payers and providers doing enough to equip seniors with the right information regarding new healthcare technologies available to them in the digital world? What more could or should they do? @naviHealthPAC #HITsm https://t.co/9MkjH1jMQL |
| John Lynn @techguy Love the idea, but is the provider the best person to do this? And when do they do this in their short visit? I think it needs to be someone else. Maybe you're using a broad definition of the term provider. #HITsm https://t.co/4tg2csvm1A |

 | Gail Zahtz 🇮🇱 @GailZahtz Popping in to #HITsm - #OT #PT social workers and other health professionals are well positioned to have the time and expertise to help seniors learn about and use new technologies and solutions for improved independence. They've been doing this for years. |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Instead of sending seniors gadgets 4 specific purposes, HC orgs should give (early!) seniors HC tech "budgets", such as $200/year, to spend on anything they feel will help their health, combined w/educational consultation to help decide, then track what's adopted/how used #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy This is a tough one. I guess I wonder if they're the ones that should be responsible for this education. #HITsm https://t.co/sKOu0opMiU |

| John Lynn @techguy @GailZahtz Glad you could join Gail. #HITsm |
| naviHealth @naviHealthPAC @RosenfeldSamara Exactly, Samara. Patients should ideally be able to look to their physician as a go-to source. #HITsm |
| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @techguy Educating patient/family about discharge from a hospital is the RNs role. There are many programs that exist where the RN also follows up with a phone call 1 or 2 days later to make sure the patient retained the info and has been able to execute the recommendations. #HITsm |
| David Harlow @healthblawg @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Well, that’s a loaded question ... If everyone were doing enough, appropriate adoption rates would be through the roof. Sadly, we likely have a long way to go. First q is: What *is* appropriate adoption rate for tech tool X for seniors? #HITsm |

| Bob Brown @ReasObBob @techguy Good luck getting AMA to release a code for that. #HITsm |
| Gail Zahtz 🇮🇱 @GailZahtz Medicaid waivers have been giving patients, like over 65 patients, yearly budgets like this to spend on appropriate technologies and other help to enable people to continue to live at home. Living at home is personal independence and happens to cost much less. #HITsm |
| Matt DiVenere @Matt_DiV @techguy This goes back to potentially freeing up more time through shared data collected in the home. Eliminate five minutes of discussion just from wearable tech from the patient, you can start the conversation during the visit and provide more insight in the portal/email/etc. #HITsm |
| Chuck Webster MD, MS AI, MS Systems Engineering @wareFLO Super! Delighted to hear this! #HITsm |
| John Lynn @techguy @healthblawg @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC Maybe even more challenging is what tech should seniors be adopting? #HITsm |

| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @healthblawg @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC #HITsm I recommended 2 john that we have a tweetchat about how healthcare works in the real world. I agree @healthblawg. Licensed RNs both provide pt education post hospital visit and help assess what a patient needs support wise at the home & trains them. #HITsm |

| Michelle Currie @mshlcurrie @healthblawg @HealthcareScene @naviHealthPAC #HITsm It would make our friday tweetchats conversations better reflect how the industry actually operates.
