Ask HN: General oncologist or related, what are your pain points?

3 pointsby jpcapdevilaabout 2 years ago
Hello fellow medical hackers,<p>This is JP, I&#x27;m the CTO of a non-profit startup[0] that creates tools to help cancer (for now plasma cell cancers) patients during their journey fighting their disease.<p>We do everything from news, access to clinical trials, personal 1:1 coaching from other patients, education, financial resources, decision making tools, support groups etc.<p>So far all of our tools have been focusing on the patients, now we want to help general oncologist.<p>Is there a constant pain point that prevents you from providing the best patient care? Is there anything you struggle with on a daily basis? Is there a feature that you would love to see on EMR&#x2F;EHR systems? Anything that would make your work 10x efficient?<p>I&#x27;ve been asking around and so far I got this:<p>- A simplified 1 pager summary of my patient, showing me any recent developments (the data is all over the place on EHRs).<p>- Tools that assist for better decision making.<p>- Something that shows you clinical trials personalized for your patient based on inclusion exclusion criteria.<p>- Access to an on demand tumor board.<p>Do any of this get you excited? If so, how would that look for you?<p>Please share anything, no matter how complex or simple.<p>Thank you for your time and dedication to patient care.
