Disruptive Women in Health Care

Disruptive Women in Health Care

From its very outset, the Disruptive Women (www.disruptivewomen.net) blog stated that its mission was “to serve as a platform for provocative ideas, thoughts, and solutions in the health sphere.” Now in its fourth year, the blog has not only achieved its stated mission, but exceeded it. Disruptive Women has become an online destination for innovative thinking on exciting health trends and current health policy issues. The Disruptive Women blog has become a thought leader and influencer in its own right, receiving numerous awards and accolades including being named “one of the top health policy blogs” by HealthTech and a “Fierce Female Healthcare Blog To Watch” by Fierce Healthcare. Today, there are nearly 100 global contributors, including former Members of Congress and other elected officials, health professionals, technology leaders, patient advocates, medical researchers, economists and thought leaders. This stellar roster continues to grow with more individuals whose provocative ideas and eye-opening insights make them Disruptive Women. The Disruptive Women blog, which also features a regular Man of the Month post, continues to evolve by addressing today’s pressing health care issues with innovative and exciting thematic posts, e-books and in-person events. Disruptive Women is a project conceived of and owned by Amplify Public Affairs.

You set the Agenda

The difference between your average conference and a HealthCamp is that You, the participants, get to set the bulk of the Agenda on the day.

While our Sponsors get to present a 4×4 (Four slides in Four minutes) to tell us some of the exciting innovations in taking place in Health Care it is YOU that will create the Agenda in real time on the morning of HealthCamp (Monday June 4th) at the Kaiser Permanente Center For Total Health. So….

Let’s get the ideas circulating. Add your comments (below) about ideas you would like to discuss and let’s get the conversation started. You can also post ideas to Twitter using the #HCDC hashtag.

Have you ever wanted to take charge of a 4×4?

At HealthCa.mp/DC we are planning an exciting series of quick fire presentations combined with discussion. Welcome to the 4×4.

4 Slides in 4 Minutes.

What would you say?

Slide 1: What is the problem you are addressing?
Slide 2: How have you done something to improve this situation?
Slide 3: Help you could use to make more progress, solve challenges, what don’t you know?
Slide 4: Why are you doing this? What drives you to tackle this challenge?

How can you get involved and present a 4×4?

Sign up for an entrepreneur, innovator or supporter ticket and then send an email to mark AT healthca.mp with your name, title of your 4×4 and a short 1 paragraph outline of your talk. You can also optionally include a picture so we can feature you in a blog post on this site.

Were You at HealthCampDC?

Gregg Master (@2HealthGuru) has put together a fabulous photo montage from HealthCa.mp/DC.

There are so many people captured in a great series of photos. Check out the video and share it with your friends. Encourage them to come along to a HealthCamp and have just as much fun in a innovative shared learning environment.

On June 8th 2011 as part of DC Innovation week activities, HealthCamp DC convened in the Kaiser Permanente Center for Total Health. The unconference brought together thought leaders from around the country to discuss innovation in healthcare via the unique un-conference format. Kudos to Mark, Maumi and Danielle!

  2. Add a comment and let us know your Twitter handle
  3. Share your thoughts about the day.
