An article I co-wrote in 1997 with Dr. James Heckman on the economics of using a novel technology to stimulate bone healing was quoted in a research paper published in the journal Nature, Efficacy of Electrical Stimulators for Bone Healing: A Meta-Analysis of Randomized Sham-Controlled Trials. The section quotes, “The socioeconomic burden associated with bone healing complications such as delayed union or nonunion is substantial and includes direct treatment costs as well as personal and societal costs, such as lost wages, decreased productivity and delays returning to work.”

Las Vegas will be "everywhere" we are for #CES2021, the annual Consumer Electronics Show that convenes in LAS. I'll be brainstorming digital health with innovators, presenting my take on the evolving COVID-era health consumer, and covering the conference here on Health Populi throughout the event.
Every year, the American Hospital Association (AHA) publishes a health care forecast, FutureScan. The AHA asked Jane to share her read on the consumer health care tea leaves for the new 2021-2026 publication, available through the AHA.
Without connectivity to the Internet, people have been hard-pressed to take on their full health citizenship in the pandemic era. Grateful that Media Planet placed my essay on WiFi as a social determinant of health in a USA Today insert on 29th December 2020.
