When the single-engine plane Richard Rockefeller was piloting crashed in rain and fog just after takeoff from New York\u2019s Westchester County Airport, the\u00a0headline<\/a>\u00a0was the death of the 65-year-old son of billionaire banker David Rockefeller. But if you read carefully through the small-print, paid obituaries in this past Sunday\u2019s\u00a0New York Times<\/em>, you would have come across\u00a0this description<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Richard was a pioneer in recognizing that the Internet could help doctors and patients share crucial data, with the ultimate goal of improving medical diagnoses and health care delivery \u2013 ideas that are routine today but were prescient when he created the Health Commons Institute in 1994.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I first met Richard in 1995, when researching patient empowerment as part of my book,\u00a0Demanding Medical Excellence: Doctors and Accountability in the Information Age<\/a><\/em>. Richard had been a photographer, then discovered a love of medicine. He became a family physician in Maine, not far from a Rockefeller family compound, but he was, of course, much more than a local doctor.<\/p>\n

The Health Commons Institute took on the mission of improving medical care through computer-based information tools at a time when a minority of Americans had email and newspaper reporters were more likely to use computers than doctors. More importantly, Richard was a fervent advocate of doctors and patients sharing information at a time when the concept was still a curiosity. That sharing, he saw even then, was being accelerated by the enormous amount of information available online.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe systemic barriers are lowering fast,\u201d he said. \u201cAt this point, information is running downhill like water, and we\u2019re removing all the dams.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nearly two decades later, some of those dams may have proven a bit more durable than expected, but Richard got the flow of history exactly right. I didn\u2019t know of Richard\u2019s friendship with\u00a0Dr. Tom Ferguson<\/a>\u00a0and his connection to the founding \u201ce-Patient Scholars\u201d\u00a0white paper<\/a>\u00a0until more recently. But a little Googling found this 1999\u00a0“achievement award”<\/a>\u00a0(from Tom\u2019s newsletter) to Richard that praised the way the institute addressed \u201cboth human and scientific needs.\u201d Tom continued:<\/p>\n

Richard was one of the first medical professionals to realize (1) that the doctor-patient relationship is fast becoming the doctor-patient-computer relationship, and (2) that this is a good, not a bad thing, because (3) new computer systems can free physicians from the “tyranny of knowledge” and help them spend more time attending to the personal needs of their patients.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Tom wasn\u2019t the only e-health pioneer Richard claimed as a friend. I met Richard through a founding board member,\u00a0Dr. Vergil Slee<\/a>, who had been advocating using computers to improve medical outcomes since the 1950s! Richard was a key supporter of\u00a0Dr. Lawrence Weed<\/a>, who\u2019d been pushing physicians to use computers to help in diagnosis since the late 1960s, and of\u00a0Dr. Albert Mulley Jr.\u2019s work<\/a>\u00a0in informed decision making that began in the 1980s.<\/p>\n

Richard participated in the\u00a01998 Salzburg Seminar<\/a>\u00a0that led to a seminal 2001 article, \u201cHealthcare in a Land Called PeoplePower: Nothing About Me Without Me.\u201d<\/a>\u00a0In 2000, Richard asked me to help devise a new strategic plan for the institute. However, shortly after I finished, he was diagnosed with a form of leukemia [CML, chronic myelogenous leukemia (Wikipedia<\/a>)]. By the time Richard stabilized, he had decided to concentrate on fewer of his\u00a0many charitable responsibilities<\/a>, which included environmental work and being\u00a0a founding member of Doctors Without Borders USA<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In an online\u00a0tribute<\/a>, the journalist James Fallows, who had known Richard since their college days, described him as \u201cpersonally unassuming, modest, and gracious; professionally accomplished and respected, as a local doctor in Maine and later a health-care strategist and analyst; and intellectually inventive and omni-curious.\u201d<\/p>\n

Because Richard was so easy to talk to, I gathered my courage at one point and confessed that while in the 1960s I\u2019d been a \u201cRockefeller Republican,\u201d I was now a Democrat. Richard smiled. \u201cMe, too,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
