Grand Rounds is the ultimate blog carnival for the health care blogosphere.
It is the place to go each week to find out what opinion-makers in health care blogging are talking about. (Go check out this week’s edition at Suture for a Living).
I’m hosting the next Grand Rounds, this Tuesday March 30. My theme: Health Care Reform.
How will it affect your life, your medical practice, your experience as a patient, as an insured, an employer, an employee, someone without insurance? What are your reactions to the politics, and what do you think will happen next? I’m asking for your candid views on health care reform seen from whatever perspective you bring. Medicine, politics, business, humor, left, right, center, up, down, you name it.
Let’s have this next Grand Rounds be The Mother of All Health Care Reform Roundups.
Instructions on how to submit your post are below.
Welcome to Grand Rounds, Vol. 5, No. 36!
If you make the rounds of the blogosphere and the traditional media these days, you find lots of talk about health care. But it’s mostly abstract, and typically fixated on the politics of this or that plan.
However, there’s a whole other side to health care which isn’t seen or covered enough by traditional media or bloggers — the doctors, nurses, medical professionals and patients who actually are the health care system.
Blogs make it possible for these voices to be heard, and we’re very fortunate to have a great variety of blogs and bloggers to feature in this edition of Grand Rounds. These stories and these people need a more prominent place in the public mind, and I’m hopeful I can play a small part in that with this week’s edition.
The submissions this week come from as far away as Australia, South Africa and the UK, and as close to home as my hometown. But on the web these are all local calls, so I’ve categorized the more than 2 dozen submissions this week into a few topics.
Read on, click through and add all of these great bloggers to your RSS readers. (more…)
