The White House Reveals A Redesigned Electronic Medical Record
"As the son of a doctor and the director of Designer Fund, an “angel fund of designers” that helps fledgling tech startups, Blumenfeld saw an opportunity to use design to improve the quality of patient care. “Medicine is ripe for a design revolution,” he wrote last fall. “Just look at what currently passes for someone’s medical record and your brain races with all the improvements that would make this 100 times more usable and beautiful.” Working with a White House Presidential Innovation Fellow named Ryan Panchadsaram and a group of high-profile designers and doctors, Blumenfeld launched the Health Design Challenge last November. When the competition wrapped up at the end of the year, more than 230 designs had been submitted." via Co.Design
