Perverse Incentives, Doctors, and EHR Design – Fun Friday

Happy Friday to all of you out there that celebrate it.  It’s that time again for another edition of Fun Friday where we share something humorous to hopefully lighten your mood and start your weekend off right.  We’ve got a couple gems this week including one that comes from a doctor’s 80 year old patient.

Hilarious and heartbreaking. Thanks to the 80 year old that still enjoys humor. Is there anything better than sharing a laugh?

Doctors are special.

Leave it to Dr. Charbonneau to see the similarities. Too funny. To be fair, Walmart is getting into healthcare, so maybe that icon could connect your patients to Walmart.

This next one isn’t funny, but I do get the warm fuzzy seeing people getting recognized for their hard work. In this case people working on healthcare interoperability.  Find a friend that needs recognition and submit them for the recognition.

Thanks everyone for reading. Have a great weekend!
