e-Patients Live Longer, The Complete Guide to Managing Health Care Using Technology is a comprehensive guidebook on using e-tools to facilitate the complexities of our health care system. The book illustrates how the communication tools that consumers use every day: digital records, email, the Internet, and smartphones are enabling technologies that help patients empower themselves to take charge of their health care, communicate with their clinicians, monitor their chronic conditions and collaborate with their health care team for better outcomes. “This 2014 update to the original 2011 edition reflects changes to the Affordable Care Act and underscores the breakneck pace of change in both healthcare and technology. It is a comprehensive, accurate and useful healthcare guide, chock full of statistics, surveys, anecdotal stories including a list of key points and documented sources that close each chapter.” Kirkus Indie Review, June 2014 “The book’s eleven chapters cover everything from managing healthcare costs and records to understanding how preparing for a doctor’s visit has changed over the years and what your legal rights are as a self-advocating patient. The concepts in each chapter are introduced and reinforced with real-life stories that are appropriately suited to each topic. These illustrative stories make the concepts memorable and empowering.” Forward Clarion Review, Sara Budzik, June, 2014

Digital Communication in Medical Practice (Health Informatics)

Introducing Digital Communications into Your Medical Practice discusses how electronic medical records and personal health records now digitize patient information and make it accessible for review and easy to update by both doctors and patients. The text emphasizes on how the use of email and the internet will help patients to schedule appointments, access test results and research healthcare options. In addition, topics discussed include stories on how simple everyday telemedicine tools, such as telephones with cameras attached, enable doctors and nurses to carry on conversations with patients who are homebound and need daily monitoring. The text addresses the legislative initiatives that will protect physician and patients from the unauthorized access to medical records as well as discussing how e-prescribing doctor/pharmacist teams and automated databases help patients manage their medications more effectively. Case studies are also provided to illustrate real life situations showing how this technology is deployed and why it is so critical to healthcare.
