Doctations launches blog to improve healthcare

Sep 29 2009

Doctations, Inc., an innovative leader in applying Internet technology to improve healthcare, today announced the launch of its new DocPatient blog. Weekly postings to the blog site by company executives and thought leaders will address timely healthcare related topics, express expert opinions and pose provocative questions intended to inform the community, stimulate constructive dialogue and promote healthcare improvement.

Doctations’s founder and CEO, Dr. Louis Cornacchi III, is one of the country’s leading thought leaders of patient-empowered medicine and freedom of information exchange between doctors and patients. He also believes strongly that Internet healthcare is inevitable, but that it must be done right in order to deliver on its potential to effect tremendous positive change in the U.S. healthcare system.

“One of Doctations’ primary goals as a company is to empower doctors to collaborate more effectively on shaping solutions to the national healthcare crisis,” explained Jerry Kolosky, Chief Operating Officer of Doctations. “The new blog is a logical extension of our role in supporting that goal and in our effort to foster overall healthcare improvement.”

“We sincerely hope our blog will get people thinking, questioning and talking,” added Mr. Kolosky. “We encourage our blog’s readers to post comments, questions and reactions to our postings, and look forward to engaging in constructive open dialogues that address some of the pressing healthcare issues facing doctors and patients alike.”

Initial blog posts have touched on timely and provocative subjects as diverse as challenges in healthcare reform, ways to improve the doctor-patient relationship, medical malpractice risk management and the culpability of a fragmented healthcare system too focused on financial gain in the demise of pop-star Michael Jackson.

The Doctations blog is at www.docpatientblog.com Weekly posts are scheduled to be uploaded every Monday. Blog visitors are invited to enter comments and questions via the ‘comments’ link at the bottom of each post.
