EllenRichter T1 What abt continuing medical educ? Once med school is done, how doeseducation continue? Is that also problematic? Or is that OK? #MDchatTue May 31 18:25:36 PDT 2011

Christianassad @hjluks yes but the problem is that programs usually look at step scores foradmissions not people skills #mdchatTue May 31 18:25:59 PDT 2011

NateOsit @Neil_Mehta @EHROutlook Which EHR? The EHR landscape will look verydifferent in 5 years. Teach basic, vendor neutral concepts #MDchatTue May 31 18:26:05 PDT 2011

Neil_Mehta T1 content changes too fast. Med students need to learn how to learn and solveproblems #mdchatTue May 31 18:28:23 PDT 2011

Christianassad Its difficult to teach someoneto care... If you care about your patietns your care aboutlearning. IMO #mdchatTue May 31 18:28:33 PDT 2011

RyanMadanickMD T2 hard to completely separate the two. Docs cannot develop the drugs,pharmaceutical companies cannot treat patients #mdchatTue May 31 18:28:38 PDT 2011
