On Monday June 4, 2012 HealthCampDC took place at the Kaiser Permanente Center for Total Health in DC, followed by an "installation" of The Walking Gallery.  I enjoyed the opportunity to spend a day engaged in terrific discussions about health care with folks I know virtually and "in real life" — and to meet in person some folks who I've known on line for a while, all as part of DC Health Data and Innovation Week.

After introductions, Hal Wolf from Kaiser Permanente gave a "Firestarter" talk to get the juices flowing.

Love this. “@healthblawg: Members of #thewalkinggallery are docents of their lives. – @reginahollliday #hcdc”Trish Doherty

Emerging theme: how to motivate behavior change: If u build it will they come? (No.) 16K health apps – has it changed anything really? #hcdcDavid Harlow

We split into two groups to hear patient-focused and provider-focused "4×4"s — four slides, four minutes, presenting current projects and current questions that presenters would like to have answered in the course of the day.  These were followed by agenda-setting and the breakout sessions.  Since I am putting this together a few days after the fact I cannot easily retrieve everyone's tweets about everything that took place at HealthCamp DC.  For the full picture, check out the HealthCamp DC tweet archive.    

RT @healthblawg: Rashomon of #Healthcare @2healthguru: Four peeps in same room w/ doc all 'hearing' diff things @grantverstandig #hcdcCasey Quinlan

I'll focus for a bit on the session that I led: "I Fought the Law …" which was a free-ranging discussion kicked off by my question: What laws would you like to see changed in order to promote easier access to health data and better outcomes for patients? 

Great question! @healthblawg: What #laws need to change to make #healthcare better? #hcdc #TheWalkingGallery /yfrog.com/ntdpximkjWen Dombrowski MD

#hcdc the culture clash of law and legality and innovation with @healthblawg :)MsWZ

In @healthblawg's breakout session about what is legal in patient engagement innovation. @sunnykay brings up time issue for docs #hcdcAndre Blackman

A few other tidbits from here and there:

Heard @healthcampdc: If sensor and/or app is not tied to "why did this ahppen?" or "what can I do?" it is not helpful #hcdc #mHealthThe Doctor Weighs In

RT @healthblawg: "Health isn't just body fluids and brainwaves … we need hi tech & also hi touch" #HCDC wrapupGregg Masters

"Wellness is social, health is private" Agree? #hcdcDavid Harlow

Many members of The Walking Gallery changed their Twitter avatars to images of their jackets for the week.  Here are some of them:

After the "formal" HealthCamp unconference wound down, The Walking Gallery began — with some topical musical entertainment and, of course, walking.
