@patientchat A1: I think we need to focus more on patient activism by providing patients the tools & skills to be engaged and prepared. That would include setting expectations for appointments, keeping track of records, family history, etc. - for starters. #patientchat
Seth Rotberg @Srotberg15
T1 patient-centered care needs to start with listening to the patients’ needs and not rushing through the appointment. I saw that the avg appointment lasts less than 12 minutes which is not enough time to get the proper care. #patientchat

My regular GI (as mentioned) is, but my previous specialist was not. He had no time or desire to hear me & was content to bark out "orders." He denied my symptoms & seemed to think #Gastroparesis was not a serious illness, despite being a specialist in the field. #PatientChat
Lillian Lake - Host of #SoulNestingChat @llake
@power4patients @cvhconsulting @patientchat Devil's advocate - When you have a disease that is consuming you, the last thing you need is "tools" that need to be managed/dissected.

@patientchat See my answer to T1 - I feel like they at least listen to me. Does that translate into novel, forward-thinking care? Not always, due to formulas and precederures that must be adhered to at an administrative level e.g. - "we don't test for that" #patientchat

@power4patients @llake Unfortunately, that is sometimes easier said than done when specialists are few & far between & when patient's resources (time, ability, funds) are limited. Personally, I'd die in the streets before I'd allow it, but that's often truly the call that must be made. #PatientChat

@patientchat @power4patients A5 We know the positive effect of feeling heard & cared for has health impact outside of the clinical visit. I see this in hospice care where there is often a rally once focused care is enacted. #patientchat

@patientchat T5: To be patient-centered might help reduce moral injury in medical professionals. It means to uphold values. It means to care for others the way you would like to be cared for. #patientchat

A4: JUDY F'ING FAULKNER'S LETTER TO HHS ABOUT 'PRIVACY' Sorry, was I shouting? That letter is perfect example of paternalistic thinking still too prevalent across healthcare system when it comes to person/pt full participation in their own care. #patientchat

@melissarvh @power4patients Exactly! It would be great to be able to do that. In rural areas it's not a likely option. Dependability on carers getting you to appts, lack of strength - yep "resources" are limited. If you're old enough & seriously ill you may not have the strength to fight #patientchat

@patientchat T5: To be patient-centered also means that doctors and patients are on the same side. It's a chance to advocate together for a more humane, better healthcare system instead of a system in which both doctors and patients feel helpless. #patientchat

A5: patient centered care (the real kind, not the marketing buzz phrase version) means better outcomes. If care is really patient centered, it includes shared decision making based on patient preferences and values, not just "standard of care, NEXT!" 1/2 #patientchat

@power4patients @melissarvh You do realize there is a dearth of internet connection in the US, yes? Ironically, with all of the other issues that rural America faces, internet connection would help solve many of them #patientchat

A5: with real patient centered care (as above) SDM + #patientpref = better outcomes, with outcome goals shared by person/pt and clinical team. Goal should be best-health for PATIENT, not just a checklist metric. 2/2 #patientchat

@power4patients @llake Agree, but sometimes, u must get creative & accept < ideal situations in order 2 walk. That's often difficult 4 desperately ill people. I've seen some search 4 years 4 appropriate care, all the while getting iller. My solution was 2 choose regular GI over specialist. #PatientChat

@llake @melissarvh Yes, I was born & raised in a rural area so acutely I'm aware. My Mother was diagnosed w/ an ultra rare disease living in a rural area. What I'm saying is that there are options & people, like us at @power4patients, here to help. This is 2020 & everything is possible #patientchat

This will likely result in discrimination against patient groups with uncommon presentations or rare(ly diagnosed) disorders. It's ethically problematic, and it comes at the risk of traumatizing patients and inhibiting scientific progress. (2/2) #patientchat
Ody @OdyO11
CT: When healthcare isn't patient-oriented, it will be at risk of only offering care to those who have common presentations of common disorders. To only check for the three most common causes of a symptom. To strictly adhere to algorithms. (1/2) #patientchat

@melissarvh @power4patients I agree. It took me 6 years. I made the decision to either die trying or thrive. On the path of thriving now but it took determination and support of family. Which brings up the issue of self-carers. An untalked about topic. That would be great for another week. 😀 #patientchat

@power4patients @llake Absolutely! And with the growth of #telemedicine, I expect a whole new world to open up to patients. In any case, I will continue to fight for better care for my community, and I know you all are helping lead that fight as well! Thanks for all you do. #PatientChat
