De laatste artikelen over Medicine 2.0 zijn nu te lezen op Highlighthealth.info. Wat is Medicine 2.0 precies?
Medicine: derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.
Web 2.0: the second-generation of web-based communities and hosted services that strive to facilitate collaboration and sharing between users.
Medicine 2.0 = Medicine + Web 2.0
For the uninitiated, lets begin with a general definition of the term Medicine 2.0 and the difference between it and Health 2.0.
Medicine 2.0 is science of maintaining and/or restoring human health through the study, diagnosis and treatment of patients utilizing web 2.0 internet-based services, including web-based community sites, blogs, wikis, social bookmarking, folksonomies (tagging) and rss, to collaborate, exchange information and share knowledge. Physicians, nurses, medical students and health researchers who consume web media can actively participate in the creation and distribution of content, helping to customize information and technology for their own purposes.
Health 2.0, a new concept of healthcare, also utilizes web 2.0 internet-based services but is focused on healthcare value (meaning outcome/price). Patients, physicians, providers and payers use competition at the medical condition level over the full cycle of care as a catalyst for improving safety, efficiency and quality of healthcare delivery.
The goal of both of these movements is the delivery of optimal medical outcomes though individualized care.
