It was as good a blog back then as it is today… what will EHR 2.0 look like? http://t.co/XkrXm7Z

In an April 5th New York Times article (http://www.nytimes.com/2009/04/05/fashion/05iphone.html?_r=1&scp=2&sq=iphone&st=cse), developers were cashing in on Iphone apps (to the tune of $800k for one bright guy). It is obvious to me that the missing link in all our technology ideas is a simple one…what does the customer want? We continually focus on health plan needs (important) employer needs (very important), provider needs (very, very important) but miss out on the patient needs and wants and speculate on how they will want this and not want that. If we use the Platform + app model, then we allow for the market place to determine what will be effective and I suspect that Mandl and Kohane’s list will be a good starting point for for the first three groups but once patients start expressing what they want from an EHR/PHR, then it’ll be raining dogs

This is a good overview of the exciting possibilities. I agree that the government approach should be as a rule setting referee to define open standards and platforms rather than locking in existing proprietary protocols.
The key to making all of this work is interoperability standards. This should be the first priority. All of these applications will depend on having access to data in a standard format with well defined metadata. This would be the best service that the government could provide.
