TP102 - The Impact of the Digital Native on Healthcare

With the increasing impact consumerism is having on health systems, hosts Chris Boyer and Reed Smith weigh in on the potential influence “digital natives” can have on new online strategies - both from a consumer and employment perspective. From virtual care offerings to social media training, they even attempt to bust myths about digital natives. They are joined by Dr. Farris Timimi, the Medical Director of the Mayo Clinic Social Media Network, in which he describes their formalized training program to ensure physicians in training are prepared to embrace the benefits of social media in their practice.
