"Carty it's 2023 in America, what/who is the authoritative source of your vaccination history?"
"um, CVS?"
"not the $billions MassGeneral/Brigham Epic portal thing?"
"no, they have no clue, I should update that. Oh and that one time at Walgreens"
"dude, wtf are we doing?"
"right?"

It's Monday, submit to the soulless graph of managers and their investors! That's a good worker you and your family will be well fed this week!

It doesn't have to be this way.

Do you know Carty? Talk to him about HealthPub™, it's an ActivityPub conformant healthcare app for Americans, it scales access for everyone.

Oh hi actually I am working pretty hard on an ActivityPub app for managing one's experience with the US healthcare system, it's called HealthPub™.

I am coding madly and building a team of clueful developers and clinicians, we need your help and we need your financial support.

Oh look it's my Mass General Brigham "patient" gateway powered by Epic.

Epic is a a very expensive billing system with some clinical bags tied to the side.

We're building the next generation of patient-centered clinical apps, watch here.

I decided a bunch of stuff should happen upon the asynchronous posting of a toot and let me tell you one learns asynchronous programming over again each time.

I am smart enough and I am good enough and this code is going to work.

Here's the problem, this is Mass General Brigham, presumably near best practice: "blah blah you owe us $90."

It's not a clinical system.

A clinical system centers you and the clinical experience you are having with your providers, not accounts receivable at the hospital.

HealthPub™ is an ActivityPub conformant medical records and messaging app.

If we are going to pick a profession that will change the most as a result of the application of "AI" it's medicine, right?

I am *way* more popular here than on twitter I should do an intro thing.

I am Carty, a 63 yr old empty nester who has spent his entire cis white guy life in tech helping teams produce software products.

I care deeply about individual access to healthcare which means changing how US healthcare works.

I also care deeply about social justice and inclusive teams because it's all one thing, right?

I have a cat named Monster Cat, he has that name for a reason.

"Objects are the core concept around which both ActivityStreams and ActivityPub are built. Objects are often wrapped in Activities and are contained in streams of Collections, which are themselves subclasses of Objects."

If that does not annoy you maybe you should help us fix healthcare.

Are you using #FHIR with #ActivityPub? Do you know anyone else who is?

So this is al little like freshman year (to use a class-laden metaphor) in that one can reinvent oneself a bit. (I was however not clever enough to do that freshman year)

Here I am going to be more about patient access to care and medical records data modeling. But interesting.
