Disruptive Innovation, Applied to Health Care

We are living this right now...brought elder parent from Fl to live with us because he can't care for himself. His medical records are on sometimes illegible sheets of paper in a folder an inch thick. Every new visit means filling out the same paperwork over and over again. All the same (expensive) tests being repeated without any consultation with his prior doctors or even access to detailed prior results. Trying to understand what insurance covers vs what medicare covers is an exercise in paralegal gymnastics. It's a nightmare of inefficiency.
