Clinicians Should Lead in Improving Healthcare, by Sharing Big Data
By James Anthony January 3, 2025

*** begin quote ***

Clinicians’ future practice will use big data, instantly.

A clinician will start with a profile of what’s already known about his customer’s genetics, health history, and lifestyle. He will add his current observations. He will then query to find out, for customers who match his customer either closely or closely enough, what outcomes all other clinicians have seen using their own best practices, from as far back as has been recorded to as recently as has been added.

He will consider what interventions will be his best practice for his customer right now—maybe trying a lower dose that might lessen side effects, maybe trying a higher dose that might increase efficacy. He will add these interventions to his customer’s profile.

Later, if he learns anything more about this intervention’s safety or efficacy, he will add this information to that profile.

Unlike in current practice, in future practice all releasable information that’s known about all customers will be collected, shared, pooled, interpreted, and used to guide the next interventions by the next clinicians everywhere.

The resulting model of customers’ responses won’t be biased by only collecting information about unrepresentative groups of customers and adequate dosing regimens. Instead, the model of all the world’s customers will be all the world’s customers. Also, dosing regimens will be as closely tailored as producers make available to support.

Ideally this should be happening now.  BUT, (and there is always a BIG butt), will the current cast of “rent seekers”, grifters, monopolists, oligarchs,politicians and bureaucrats allow this to happen?

An effective and efficient model would squeeze the parasites out of their current “gravy train” cash flow.  After all, if a healthcare professional can see what works best for their patient, then the cost of trial and error to find out is eliminated.  Think of all the redundant and excessive testing that is done now to avoid and defend against malpractice suits.  And where there is “malpractice”, then there would be a road map as to why it is demonstrable.

Again, I see the problem getting to this future is all the entrenched parasites.

Argh!
