Last fall I wrote about a new program I’m in, on WNED-TV, the Buffalo PBS affiliate: “My Health Counts: e–Patients”. It also includes the e-patient stories of Lygeia Ricciardi (official consumer e-health guru at HHS) and Buffalo resident Tom Dixon, and is hosted by Susan Hunt.
The program aired Wednesday night for the first time, and is now available online. I’m thrilled with how it came out – the team at WNED, led by producer Christie May, did a phenomenal job. Here’s the video. (Email subscribers, click the headline to come online and view it.)
Watch e-Patients on PBS. See more from My Health Counts!.
Even better, the WNED team developed a terrific web page of related resources, including:
- Learn more about engaging with your medical records
- Learn more about OpenNotes study
- Learn more about Peer-to-Peer Healthcare
- Tips for finding credible health information online
- Learn more about e-patient strategies
How great is that?? Thank you, Christie and team – I hope this program and site will get the attention they deserve for your superb work! And special thanks to the many series sponsors!
Wow! This is like a dream come true. This has been my personal and research passion before there was a name for it.
Go Dave Go!

All thanks to the production team, Marge – but what’s the “this” that’s been your personal and research passion? To have a bandage on your chin? :-)
I like the presentation and the supporting web stuff, but when I went to the below links, they “404′d” Worse, there is no apparant way to let the webmaster know about failed links. So I went back up the links til I got to “Think Bright and Well” believing they were the supporting site. My emails both bounced!
So, how do we tell them about failed links?

Tom
thanks for letting me know – I’m just boarding a plane – will look into it a soon as I can!
Tom, I confirmed that those two links were bad and let them know.
Did you click EVERYTHING on their site?? Good for you!
Sorry about that Tom, it looks like you’ve found some broken links in some of the webpages for a few of the older programs in the My Health Counts! series. It’s all still relevant and important information–so we are working to update the information and fix any problems. I’ve now gone through all the pages and have given a list of changes to our web team–hopefully it will be complete by next week.
