For those who work in Technology in Healthcare attending annual conferences is part of the gig. Most habitual conference attendees feel like if you have been to one event you have been to them all. Interesting observation – one organization is working very hard to stand out and share information in new and exciting ways.

The Health 2.0 conference‘s original tagline of ‘user-generated healthcare’ contains the germ of a compelling idea -  “patients are using new tools to guide their own care”. Today Doctors, patients and health care organizations are starting to use these next-generation tools of online and mobile technologies to change the way health care information is delivered.

Recently, the Health 2.0 conference partnered with Unity Medical to offer their engagement and education technology the jLog™ (Journey Log) to continue their original mantra. This application will be used to share information in a dynamic new way with prospective and returning attendees, sponsors, and partners around the globe.

The jLog™ is a web-based application that unifies the best online experiences: audio,video, text, and private or public commenting – all in a contained, single page user experience. The application uses short-form videos paired with direct web links, downloadable PDF’s, and private label branding to create a unique interactive experience.

So thanks Health 2.0 for continuing the charter of using new tools to share information in exciting ways not only within the health care delivery model but also with your returning attendees.
