Putting IT in the Hands of Milwaukeeans - Affordable Healthcare Law

MILWAUKEE (MPA) - The Affordable Health Care Law is the method by which Milwaukeeans, Wisconsinites and Americans are entitled and finally getting a better quality of life, starting with their HEALTH.  Already many sigificant programs and savings are being realized.

Intel’s taking some serious steps into the medical
world with its just-FDA-approved Intel Health Guide, an 8lb gadget that
functions as a personal health care system. The Health Guide includes a small
touch-screen PC running Windows XP and a web portal that helps connect patients
and doctors. The computer can be used to remind patients to take their
medications, facilitate live video
conferencing with doctors, and even check and collect their vital
signs.

Are you a Behaviorial Health Provider? 

Milwaukee Professionals Association supports channel development and will work with the NEW programs of "patient-centered" health care of the USGov Health and Human Services to engage those receiving medicare, medicaid, social security and other government funded health care as well as those who offer and provide health care services. 

Milwaukee Professionals Association promotes getting the patient/customer and providers involved at the neighborhood-level, businesses, home, school and church level can provide safety
nets for the patient, improve customer care, provide cost-saving, improve outcomes and put more people in the "available-for-work" category.  It will at the same time, jumpstart NEW areas of employment, refine our patient home care, to break down barriers, educate and navigate the systems that are already providing hands-on services.

We are using the initiative, All Hands on Deck, WE, Initiative - Putting IT
in the Hands of Milwaukeeans, to help remove barriers, delays  lack
of health care in the Milwaukee area.  We must talk to each other,
learn about what the Affordable Health Care Law has put in place and take
advantage of them.  We will provide leadership, said Mary Glass, Chair/CEO,
Milwaukee Professionals Association.
