I suspect this has caught the attention of  many of our readers, but I’ll emphasize it anyway.  The Economist often comments on technology and health-care. Recently, they talked up Health 2.0 a bit.  What I was most struck by is the handful of comments.  Most focused on how the Economist piece helped emphasize the shifting relationship between patient and provider, as well as the need for engagement!  Wonderful stuff.
