SubscribeThe parallels are really striking between what's happening with schools and technology and what's happening in healthcare and technology in the pandemic. People are finding themselves thrust into situations that they're not prepared for.

There’s a lot of different views on what the future of telehealth should be. I personally am the mother of a special needs child and typically travel two hours to get his care. And now during the pandemic, I have the luxury, is that the right word? The luxury of speaking to his clinician minus having to mask up and drive two hours. It’s actually been incredibly helpful, but that's only one patient’s use case.

Overall, the industry is getting much better with data quality. We were doing this work in the wild west days of meaningful use back in the early 2010s. And data quality was really questionable. But EHRs in general have become a little bit more user-friendly and end users are becoming much better about not treating the EHR like a giant post-it note. So it’s much more reliable. But it's still a journey.
