Aug,07,2013
by:+
We’ve all been there – that moment when someone you barely know begins to share unsolicited, awkward details of their life. These kinds of experiences are enough to make you want to crawl out of your skin, right?

The result was a web-based PGS, or Patient Guidance System, which comprises checklists and forms, email reminders, educational materials, videos and decision support for patients.

Aug,06,2013
by:+Steven Ross Johnson
While a new report estimates millions of people could be added to Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program if all states expanded these programs as allowed under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, a number of states have refused to expand their programs or cut their existing programs, leaving thousands of their residents without coverage.
The study conducted by the Kaiser Foundation and the Urban Institute estimated 18 million people could be added to the programs, and that the rate of uninsured in each state would fall below 15% if the ACA's Medicaid were fully implemented in all states. Hospital leaders are in the forefront of pushing resistant states to expand Medicaid.

If you’re not using video in your social media marketing, what are you waiting for? The engraved invitation came back in 2006 when Google bought YouTube. In 2011, YouTube passed Yahoo to become the world’s second-largest search engine. Video is a powerful tool, and leveraging it correctly can yield amazing results for your social media marketing. Social media video is hugely popular and includes everything from Vine (Twitter’s 6-second mobile video app) to long-form videos on YouTube. According to research by Pew Internet, 71% of online Americans use social media video sites (and that study was conducted in 2011—the percentage has likely increased since then).
