October 01, 2009 By: mike Category: HCSFBay2009

HealthCampSFBay 2009 is lucky to have an unconference icon, Kaliya Hamlin (aka IdentityWoman) to help use Open Space to it’s greatest utility.   Some advice from the document “Unconferencing” at www.unconference.net 

Advice for everyone at unconference… 

  • Go with the flow – This event is intended to help you and all the other grantees find the time and space to talk with and learn from each other.  
  • Follow your passion – Go to the sessions that interest you. 
  • Take responsibility for your own learning – If there are topics you are really interested in that don’t appear on the agenda at first, you need to put them on there.

Dr. Robert Pearl welcomes Healthcampers Garfield Innovation Center

September 22, 2009 By: mike Category: HCSFBay2009

robertPearlMDDr. Robert Pearl is Executive Director and CEO of The Permanente Medical Group.

As CEO of the largest medical group in the nation, Dr. Pearl is responsible for the health care of over 3 million Kaiser Permanente members. The Permanente Medical Group is comprised of over 6,000 physicians and 25,000 staff members and operates 19 medical centers in Northern California. He was selected as Executive Director and CEO of The Permanente Medical Group in 1998. In addition, he is the President and CEO of the MidAtlantic Permanente Medical Group which serves 500,000 members in Maryland, Virginia and the District of Columbia.

Board certified in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Dr. Pearl received his MD from Yale University School of Medicine. He completed his residency in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at Stanford University and currently serves on the faculty as a Clinical Professor of Plastic Surgery. In addition, he is on the faculty of the Stanford Graduate School of Business and teaches courses on strategic thinking and strategic change.

Selected by Modern Healthcare as one of the most powerful physician-leaders in the nation, Dr. Pearl has published more than 100 articles in various medical journals and has been a contributor to many books. He has made over 75 presentations at national meetings in the areas of both clinical medicine and medical economics. In the past several years, he served as a visiting professor at Duke University School of Medicine, Haas School of Business and Harvard School of Public Health. Dr. Pearl was a featured speaker at the 2006 World Health Care Congress and addressed the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco in 2003.

As a frequent lecturer on health care, Dr. Pearl is an advocate for the power of physician-led, integrated medical delivery systems. He believes that organizations like Kaiser Permanente in which physicians collaborate rather than compete, and in which a multi-specialty medical group works in partnership with a not-for-profit health plan and hospital system, are able to provide superior quality of care over fragmented insurance-based systems.

Over the past decade, he has been a leader in implementing advanced information technology systems across Kaiser Permanente. By combining an integrated delivery system with Internet technology he believes that Kaiser Permanente is uniquely positioned to redefine the practice of medicine as we know it today and develop the health care solutions for the 21st century.
