...demand for transparency in healthcare, and consumerism in healthcare, and really focusing on the end consumer, and social media may well emerge as a strong play there.” Social media is atwitter with similar sentiment. Our previous post, “Why Social Media in Healthcare?” resulted in important conversations on the topic during the first days of HIMSS 11. We have created this series, “Responding to Healthcare Consumerism with Social Media” in order to continue this important conversation. This series aims to identify the benefits and drawbacks of using social media and collaboration tools in healthcare, explore the doctor and patient communities currently interacting online, outline social media’s impact on the quality of care, and use current innovations to predict the future of social media collaboration in the healthcare industry. We will begin this series by identifying the benefits and drawbacks of social media, and collaboration tools in general, for participating healthcare organizations. Ultimately, it is my hope that enthusiasm around these benefits, and problem solving around the drawbacks, will fuel creation of a more consumer-centric healthcare system. Benefits of Social Media in Healthcare Quick Dissemination of Medical Information: There is a lot of bad medical advice available online, and healthcare patients are consuming this information at a record pace at their own parel.

They vary from parents, students, athletes, companies, business, consumers, organizations and other various forms of social networking. Social media allows users to share, exchange, collect; information, ideas and pictures/videos in networks via laptops, cell phones, IPADS, or any other mobile device that may have access to virtual communities or networks.

It is also the way we keep up with our favorite celebrities and gossip. Social media and the use of smartphones are becoming more prevalent in business and the healthcare field as well. According to Pew Research Center, “62% of smartphone owners have used their phone in the past year to look up information about a health condition” (April, 2015). Technology, just like all things come with flaws and setbacks. However, with the new technology being created every day, along with the increasing use of both smartphones and social media, using these outlets for patient-provider relationships can enhance overall patient trust and care. That being said, ensuring that patient privacy is not violated has to be the number one priority. Advances in technology and media can pose great triumphs for healthcare further down the road, as long as the appropriate measures are taken to ensure that HIPAA standards are being met at all times while using these outlets.

The importance of communication within our health care field is often overlooked and minimized, but we must understand it is significant to all who hold a health care position as well as those in managerial functions. There has been situations that occurs in our nursing homes in which we have faced transitions of management and unfortunately our residents/patients were not given the opportunity to communicate with our healthcare providers effectively.

...delivery of healthcare was introduced that brought about new technologies and medicine for providers and consumers. These advancements in healthcare has increased access while the quality still remains questionable. Many new technologies in healthcare brings challenges for both providers and consumers that should be measured as for the quality they provide and regulatory provisions that are needed. As healthcare understands the advantages of social media, there are disadvantages as well. Social media is becoming the way healthcare consumers choose to research and share medicine today. The convenience to research acute and chronic diseases has allowed consumers to become empowered with medicine for better communication with physicians. As a result, better treatments and outcomes can develop with decreased readmissions or visits to the ER. However, Social media can also reduce the quality of healthcare as well. Facebook, Twitter and health blogs presents an open environment for discussion, but at the same time can be misleading. Information obtained in social media lacks relevance as it pertains to individual experiences and outcomes that is subject to bias. For physicians, this information may inhibit the quality of care that should be provided. Thus, it is necessary for consumers to discuss any health information obtained from social media with physicians.

..."Companies that embrace social media as a central part of their strategy quickly realize social media is not about pushing out promotional materials to their audience. It is about having collaborative interactions with customers, prospects and even employees allowing these companies to gain valuable insights, solidify longlasting relationships and cultivate customer advocates. More and more companies are embracing social media as a strategic part of their business.” (Desk, 2015) The pharmaceutical industry is one of the great absentees of the social media. Out of fifty pharmaceuticals included in a social media use study, only ten had an identifiable presence on social media. Several articles had been written about what they call the "PharmaSocmephobia." A very interesting study from IMS Institute dedicates over 40 pages to explore, discuss and analyze the reasons, the pros and cons of this behavior. By ignoring social media pharmaceuticals are missing on great information for product development, key opinion leader identification and monitoring. Social media are a tool to listen to customer ideas and feedback, and collaborate with social groups to test products and services. As stated by IMS Pharmaceutical companies cannot afford to delay their entry into these ever evolving and increasingly significant new channels of communication.
