Ruth Carlos, MD – Engaging Patients on Twitter

Bringing Patients into Tweet Chats

Engaging patients in health conversations is essential but do we know if they are active in social media? Today on Get Social Health my guest is Dr. Ruth Carlos.  She’s the Deputy Editor of the Journal of the American College of Radiology, as well as a professor of radiology at the University of Michigan.  In 2016 she led a team of researchers to study the impact of patients on a TweetChat. Their work won the 2016 Stanford Medicine X / Symplur Signals “Everyone Included Research Challenge.”  We’ll talk about her work getting patients engaged in healthcare via social media on Get Social Health.

Healthcare Innovation in Action

Innovation in healthcare – everybody’s talking about it but how do you do it? Today’s guest on Get Social Health, AJ Montpetit,  has a unique perspective because he works on both sides of the healthcare innovation challenge. By day he works at the Mayo Clinic as a social media contractor for the Center for Individualized Medicine and the Center for Innovation. In his free time, he plays an active role in an innovation program called Global Entrepreneurship Week.

The Healthcare Hashtag Project – #Ebola

There is a concern that healthcare has been slow to embrace social media and appreciate it’s potential to educate and inform. Twitter numbers about healthcare conversations tell a different story: over 610 million Tweets, over 11,00 topics, almost 5,200 hashtags and more than 2100 contributors. The reason we know the data about millions of healthcare tweets is due to the Healthcare Hashtag Project – a program of Symplur. Get Social Health had a conversation with Tom Lee, Co-Founder of Symplur about the reasons the Healthcare Hashtag Project was created. We also chatted about hashtag bombing, tracking specific healthcare conversations and the use of hashtags in conversations about Ebola.

Healthcare Twitter Legend in the Making: @Nxtstop1

Are you active in Twitter? I thought I was until I had a lively conversation with physician, aging mobility advocate and Twitter evangelist Dr. Bernadette Keefe.

Listen to this episode of the Get Social Health podcast and learn how Bernadette has found an effective recipe to engaging in healthcare Tweet Chats, Conferences (where she is not in attendance) and one-on-one relationships. But get this – she is tracking multiple conversations, thought leaders and conversation threads with only a smart phone, an iPad and the Twitter platform.
