Are You a Healthcare IT Troublemaker or Rebel?

What a great image and list! I’m going to be chewing on this one for a while. I think it’s a fine line between troublemaker and rebel. Although, at it’s core I’d suggest that the main difference is motivation. A person or organizations motivation will make all the difference.

As I think about social media, I can think of a lot of healthcare IT troublemakers and rebels. Social media has a way of really exposing people as troublemakers or rebels. It’s hard to hide your motivation on social media.

Now I’m going to go and chew on whether I’m a troublemaker or rebel.

Those rebelling against “Meaningful Use” have been shouted down by those who spent $30 Billion dollars on these poor systems. It is time to rebel. Even Halamka thinks Meaningful Use should end.
