When a person becomes a patient, she becomes used to wandering (quite at random) from health professionals to health professionals. Life line has been designed to help her organize actors around as a genuine team and to provide this group with a project oriented vision. This presentation is already pretty old (2007) and I am currently working on an ever more impersonating concept. Feel free to poke - it is much about open source and "platform for commons".

1. Life Line
Your health is a precious asset.
Now, you can have a say in how it’s managed

2. Hi !
I am Paul’s health asset manager
I’m a LifeLine©
Paul suffers from a chronic disorder:
He is a diabetic

3. Paul had never been ill before,
Then a migrating gallstone brought on acute
pancreatitis which led to chronic diabetes.
Paul must manage his diabetes.
From this day on, he must organize his present and
anticipate his future.
I am Paul’s Personal Health Manager.

4. First, we had to set up his health team.
In the rosace below are all the people whose
common project is to keep Paul healthy.
I‘m here to enables them to work concurrently and harmoniously.
Paul stands in the center.
Surrounded by other team
members, according to their roles.
I act as link,
communicator, organizer, and
synchronization tool for
Paul’s health asset

5. Then, I helped the healthcare professionals in Paul’s
team define the best health goals for Paul.
• I keep Paul’s health
agenda up to date.
• I warn the team if
useful information is
missing
• I warn the team if
data exceeds
acceptable limits.

6. I assist Paul in reaching his health goals.
I help his health team monitor his progress
and advise him for the best.
Paul has a clear vision of his health history. I create and inform health
milestones and alerts that Paul can really use.
For example, the blue curve above shows that
Paul’s glycosilated hemoglobin rate is back to normal.
We are all very proud of it.

7. For Paul, I am a personal health manager.
But also a device to communicate with his care givers
and the other members of Paul’s support community.
