Parts 3-5 of Why Healthcare is Not Ready for Change are coming this week (June 16th-20th). My plan was to release them last week, but I needed to get some facts stratight so I made the decision to hold off until this week. This is something that is a very challenging topic to write about both personally and professionally. As a patient of a hospital that has received numerous national accolades and awards for their enabling technology, I would like to share my first hand experiences that clearly show they have neglected the patient as both a person and as a customer. While this is a damning contention, it has been my reality. For professionalism's sake, I will forgo the "kiss and tell" but instead will contructively offer my insight to readers of this blog. I hope you appreciate me tempering my words and for my desire to get some facts straight.
So while you are debating questions like should I eat those tomato's, how much $ is it going to take to fill up my tank this week, and when will we get there (to all those lucky to be vacationing somewhere) I thought I would add something more lighthearted....
Check out this new element of Live Search called Farecast. I have used other travel services, but farecast can help me save money in timing my purchases which to me is pretty cool. And if you are fed up with the major airlines, then check out some new era on demand airlines such as Linear Air and Day Jet.
