Initial Radioland Voyage. Today Radioland becomes a communication link on activities related to Pursuing Perfection in Whatcom County.  As Project Manager, I will link to activities and help create connections between many individuals who are making a new patient-centered healthcare delivery system a reality in Whatcom County, Washington.

Progress in information sharing, got Mary up and running with Radio, although she has not yet adopted the Radio theme.  Facilitated posting of the project plan on the Pursuing Pefection Web see link in title.  Scheduled to load Radio Monday on Annie Gort's pc.

Please let me know what you think about posting the error messages during this implementation phase.  I consider it doing our part for transparency.  Will continue to post meaningful text relative to installations in the interest of making this easier each time. 

I am excited to participate in starting this new and exciting forum for sharing information as we forge bravely ahead with the transformation.

1) Patients truly at the center, "radical patientcentricity"

2) First design the healtcare system that is needed.  Then and only then, design the payment system to support the idealized system design.

• Too frequently we have tried to create as system through manipulation of the payment structures. That is like trying to make a marionette dance through strings held by puppeteers who can't see each other, can't see the marionnette and don't agree on the dance. Together we can get the dance steps right. This is the first order of business if we are to improve the patients' and providers' experience, and deliver the needed quility and value.
• In our Pursing Perfection project will use group systems dynamics modeling and simulation to design the dance for a couple of chronic diseases first.
