Disruptive Women Wishes You a Happy, Healthy New Year
December 31st, 2009
2009 was one for the health care record books–and from the looks of things 2010 promises to be just as dramatic. And Disruptive Women will be right there in the middle–framing, commenting, and providing insights and perspectives to some of the most pressing health care challenges.
We are planning several more e-books, in person briefings and conferences and have added a number of esteemed new bloggers to our Disruptive Women roster–stay tuned for an upcoming post introducing our newest colleagues.
Some of the topics we plan to focus on in-depth include:
- Mental Health
- Informatics–EHRs, PHRs, Meaningful Use
- Caregiving/Workfore
- Women’s Health (and a conference)
- Telehealth/Remote Monitoring/Mobile Health
- End of Life
- Alternative/Integrative Medicine
- Public Health
- Genomics/Genetics/Personalized Medicine
- And oh yes, Health Reform
I am very interested in your feedback: which topics, either listed here or not, would you like us to address in the coming year?
On behalf of all the Disruptive Women, best wishes for a year of good health, much happiness, and peace.

Happy New Year. I would like you to add the issue of health literacy to your focus topics. The Institute of Medicine reports ninety million people in the United States, nearly half the population have difficulty understanding and using health information.
Thank you.

I would also consider violence/disruptive behavior in the workplace as a topic. I am currently working on a book on the same topic….it is a major issue in the majority of healthcare organizations.

Hi there, I’ve been receiving your e-newsletters and I’m thrilled to also connect with Twitter and Facebook. Topic I find interesting and hope to learn more about, and which impacts more and more of my aging friends: How to know and address your parents’ wishes in case of a medical emergency specifically recent study s…aying the physicians push out the dialogue with terminall-ill patients.
Moreover, putting on a cold health economic hat for just a second, the “not-knowing,” the lack of advanced directives informing kin of what you as a patient want is taxing the healthcare systems. E.g. NPR had a great story on this: http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=120346411&sc=nl&cc=nh-20091117See MoreWhy This Wisconsin City Is The Best Place To Die : NPR
