    Pan-Mass Challenge

    Health

    During my years of volunteering, I raised more than $250,000 for the Pan-Mass Challenge (PMC).

    The PMC is an annual bike-a-thon that today raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country. Through the Jimmy Fund, the PMC has since raised $950+ million for adult and pediatric cancer care and research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI).

    The PMC is an annual bike-a-thon that today raises more money for charity than any other single athletic fundraising event in the country. Through the Jimmy Fund, the PMC has since raised $950+ million for adult and pediatric cancer care and research at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI).

    In 2023, the PMC gave a gift of $72 million. The event donates 100 percent of every rider-raised dollar directly to the cause. In 2022, the PMC generated over 50% of the Jimmy Fund’s annual revenue and was Dana-Farber’s largest contributor. More than 250,000 individual contributions were made to last year’s event. http://pmc.chaiken.org

  • Author of Navigating the Code: How Revolutionary Technology Transforms the Patient-Physician Journey

    -

    Unlike many others, the healthcare industry runs on time-tested ways to practice excellence in medicine. But does that mean adherence to practices and processes that are fifty, seventy, or even a hundred years old? Dr. Barry P. Chaiken thinks not. With 25+ years of experience as a physician and an informaticist, he believes information technology is healthcare’s greatest problem-solving tool for resolving the greatest medical and business problems of the 21st century.

    Unlike many others, the healthcare industry runs on time-tested ways to practice excellence in medicine. But does that mean adherence to practices and processes that are fifty, seventy, or even a hundred years old? Dr. Barry P. Chaiken thinks not. With 25+ years of experience as a physician and an informaticist, he believes information technology is healthcare’s greatest problem-solving tool for resolving the greatest medical and business problems of the 21st century.

    The solution: Revolutionary Healthcare Information Technology.

    The author’s convincing thesis is based on a single premise: we must open ourselves to change. Once we commit, he explains how this openness can help us out of our longstanding malaise and guide us toward a transformative healthcare experience for the patient and the physician. With painstaking honesty and practicality, Navigating the Code presents a simple, factual, businesslike approach to solving healthcare problems. But don’t take his word for it: the book offers the views of eighteen thought leaders in medicine and healthcare information technology.

    Dr. Chaiken delineates the RHIT solution in five Parts:

    Part I explains the depth and breadth of healthcare’s problems worldwide, then its issues with technology, change, and business management;

    Part II presents RHIT as the essential tool for change management and the transformation that accrues from its implementation;

    Part III develops a deeper, more encompassing understanding of change management for creating an integrated workflow for clinicians, patients, and the business;

    Part IV explores the application of RHIT and its transformational impact on the Hippocratic Code of quality, access, outcomes, and financial investment by both the patient and the provider and

    Part V draws everything together in two chapters: the marriage of economics and interoperability and the emerging connected, adaptive healthcare organization.
