Former lawmaker lobbies for bill to let docs practice telemedicine across state lines
Oct,22,2013

Former Rep. Bill Gradison (R-Ohio) advocates for a telemedicine bill in the House that would allow doctors to treat Medicare patients across state lines in a post on The Hill's Healthwatch.
The TELEmedicine for MEDicare (TELE-MED) Act (H.R. 3077) would allow a doctor who has an established relationship with a patient to offer treatment to that patient anywhere in the United States without having to obtain multiple state medical licenses. Gradison calls the current medical licensure laws an example of policy not keeping up with advances in technology.

Let them speak! Obama missed golden opportunity to kill ACA urban legend

President Obama and the administration could have proved that there are real live people who have successfully purchased a health insurance policy through healthcare.gov.

Or, to the grandmother rehabilitating from hip surgery at home?
Fortunately, the government’s investment in health information technology sharing has resulted in faster adaptation of EHRs and information sharing. Still, many clinicians don’t have convenient access to usable data for a specific patient encounter at the point of care. And this can only happen when all of this big data coming into the HIE and ACOs can be accessed and is usable by all users and in all settings.

Experts fear exchange glitches will worsen

We all know the launch of health insurance exchanges have been inundated with technical glitches and other problems that hindered the enrollment process. Industry experts now are worried those hitches may not only continue but also may worsen.
"If we are already running into issues at the user account stage, we're going to run into a lot more issues when we get to the more complex operations at the [subsidy] eligibility determination," Dan Schuyler, senior technology expert at Leavitt Partners, told Politico. "That's the reality. It's a very complex process, and I think it's going to get worse before it gets better."
