Why You Should Use Digital Signage to Modernize Your Healthcare Communications

Patients seeking healthcare face a lot of hurdles – navigating the spaces where they receive care shouldn’t be one of them. From preparing for the appointment while sitting in the waiting room to asking questions during the exam and taking care of administrative tasks as well as learning about products and services at the end of the visit, better provider-to-patient communication in care settings can improve how patients learn about their health and how they talk about it.  Digital

Why Mental Illness Is Not the Cause of Gun Violence

I guess there’s just no way to have a sacred cow without also keeping a goat. Understand, I’m not talking about a GOAT, as in Tom Brady or Michael Jordan. I mean a goat, i.e, something or someone that takes the blame for an event, failed policy, etc., perhaps more commonly called a scapegoat. The sacred cow, in this instance, is the Second Amendment, which has become so sacrosanct in the national foundational myth of an inspired Constitution that it no longer means a great deal more than

What is the Role of Digital Health in Public Health?

To a certain extent, the national conversation about the importance of a robust public health system has been happening for the last couple of years in the context of dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic. And yet, rather than discussing how the system can be strengthened and expanded, we’ve instead largely limited it to what the government can and cannot ask the public to do, as though the necessity of a public health system is still in doubt. For those who work in the arena, this is not an

Social Determinants of Health: Finding the Solutions Beyond the Buzzword

Health plans are on a constant quest to learn what they can do to help their member populations. Unfortunately, there is a scarcity of practical information for health plans to act upon when scanning media coverage and internet sites that purport to provide helpful guidance.
