Overview

Physician burnout hurts everyoneTHERE IS A SOLUTION: SMARTER HEALTHCARE IT.Smarter healthcare IT is, in fact the solution to three interrelated problems: WIDESPREAD PHYSICIAN BURNOUTUNEVEN CARE QUALITY (ADHERENCE TO EVIDENCE)SKYROCKETING HEALTHCARE COSTSIn The HIPUS(R) Revolution, Dr. Mark Sorensen describes how these problems impact healthcare in the United States and presents an IT solution with international applications. Several studies have found that about half of all physicians in the US and elsewhere are burned out to the point of compromising care and have been for at least ten years. While care for some patients is excellent, health systems have failed to provide high-quality care for all patients. Rising healthcare costs are also straining governments and millions of citizens.The HIPUS(R) system's patented use of color-assisted. Bayesian-like analysis can effectively address those problems by letting doctors fully process diagnostic information and fully integrate use of all patient and care info while interacting with patients and making decisions. Physicians can thereby enjoy more autonomy, report care with greater ease and speed, and improve care and reduce costs at every care point. Use of such IT will also optimize use of artificial intelligence or machine learning products and let physicians fully interact with those tools. For doctors, physician leaders, policymakers, and patients who care about achieving smarter, safer healthcare, this book offers a compelling cure or what ails our overburdened medical system. It also provides a way for readers to propel needed change.
