From “In 2008, Jim Carroll Gave a Keynote in Washington on What Healthcare Would Look Like on January 15, 2020. Today’s that Day. How Did He Do?” (January 2020)
While preparing for my keynote in mid-2008, I hit upon a theme that I will often use in my keynotes - what would a certain industry look like on a certain day in the future? And so without really thinking about it, and since 2020 seemed to have a cool resonance to it - and for who knows whatever reason - I chose January 15, 2020 as the day. I wrote an article for their (since vanished) blog, and created a fine looking PDF based on that material, which you can grab here .
Observation: Demographics is driving change - the new younger doctor and medical professional is rapidly aligning to new ways of work, online access and more. 3D printing is rapidly coming into such fields as orthopaedic surgery. Old fashioned x-ray films are just that. Technology has swept the industry, and so while there is a long way to go, the system is pretty good at aligning to fast change. #6 The Triumph of Device Intelligence
What I said: “While today we accept the health care location intelligence professional as an integral part of the hospital team, back in 2008 they were but a rare anomaly. Today, of course, most health care facilities use the insight of such professionals to regularly track, monitor, and devise proactive plans to deal with new emerging challenges. We’ve come to link massive subsets of data to geographic insight, allowing us the ability to better plan, manage and deal with complex circumstances.”
