[projectvrm] VRM in healthcare (even if they don't call it that)

["=Drummond Reed" < >]

If you're interested in how the principles (if not the name) of VRM are coming to healthcare, watch this 14 minute video (+6 mins Q&A) of a presentation at last September's Stanford Medicine X conference from the Chief Innovation Officer of Health Companion.

It's all about patient-centricity. You'll see several slides that look exactly like personal clouds exchanging data under user control, just with different labels.

You'll also see a nice plug for DirectTrust, which grew out of the secure email-based health data sharing work that Brian Behlendorf talked about after the dinner at the last VRM day.
