“Digital platforms of
communication and care define 21st century medicine. They will grow.
Smart phones enable members of the PCMH team to be the most mobile.
Looking at the privacy and security issues, we should promote such usage
whenever possible. I have communicated with my care team and patients on
my smart phone most recently from Ireland and Scotland, and previously
from China and Peru.” Joseph E. Scherger, MD, MPH, Vice President,
Primary Care, Marie E. Pinizzotto, MD Chair of Academic Affairs,
Eisenhower Medical Center, Annenberg Center for Health Sciences.
