This wiki which I referred to previously, is now receiving much attention both in the press since a story in the Cleveland Plain Dealer, and in health care blogs. The best summary of all of this press in on Clincal Case and Images blog which points to the best blog responses to this innovative wiki and views this as a future disruptive competitor for major, subscription-based online reference tools.

Quoted on Government Health IT

April 2, 2007

On the Government Health IT blog, GHIT Notebook, in a post entitled “Bridging the (Disruptive) Divide“,  my opinion about Web 2.0 on being disruptive in health care is noted. Specifically, I see Web 2.0 as a real issue for health care organizations which are policy driven and rely on medical authority as in direct conflict with the open-ended, flexible and non-authoritative nature of Web 2.0.  At the same time, Web 2.0 is based on collaboration, the central focus of medical practice at least in group practice settings.
