New Definition of Health 2.0

by Andre on June 19, 2008

So here we have the latest definition of Health 2.0, I’m pretty satisfied about this latest iteration from Dr. Ted Eytan:

Health 2.0 is participatory healthcare. Enabled by information, software, and community that we collect or create, we the patients can be effective partners in our own healthcare, and we the people can participate in reshaping the health system itself.

I weighed in on the definition in the comments section mentioning that the three words that i was happy to see in this definition were: participation, information and community.

I’m sure it will change as we explore this field more but I just wanted to share the latest :)

Do you have anything you would add to the definition of Health 2.0?
