Microsoft’s Vision for Healthcare

April 4, 2008

A cool video I found at Chris Paton’s Health Informatics Blog from Microsoft.  This futuristic view of healthcare from the consumer and provider perspectives shows  a  variety of  thin hand-helds,  screen -walls which are touch screens and  countertop smart  screens which provide a range of health care solutions.

How far are we from this? Most of the technology exists today – the main barriers are cost, interoperability and the vision to communicate at these levels between patient and provider.
