One of the most important benefits of the internet is improved communication among and between folk who otherwise would likely not interact. And blogs add immeasurably to that improvement. For some time I have been reading and occasionally cross-posting to and commenting on several providers’ blogs, and more specifically two blogs written by thoughtful, highly intelligent, and obviously concerned physicians. The latest discussion is on DB’s Medical Rants and concerns pay for performance.
Another excellent physician blog is Health Care Renewal.
As one of the few “payer-side” bloggers, I have also received (or perhaps been subjected to) many comments from folk on the provider side. While the discussions can be contentious at times, they are direct, insightful, and helpful in advancing understanding.

Thanks, Joe. Likewise about the “payer side” from the “provider side.”
