A bill filed at the state level to create a health information database and integrated analytics toolkit
A state-wide pharma, government, and healthcare independent health information open resource to evaluate pharma products, medical protocols, pharmaceutical effectiveness and adverse effects
I’ve written about this in detail before:
I have written a proposed bill supplied to South Carolina legislators. It seems that legislators like to focus on the big headline items that have, arguably, relatively little impact on the average citizen.
This bill can fundamentally change the practice of medicine in the US. The key, as we have learned, is to keep medical information out of the control of anyone with a vested interest in the outcome of any analysis. It’s OK to publish an analysis from a vested interest point of view; it is not OK to change the data so that your vested interest has been baked into the data. Below is the proposed bill. This is a South Carolina bill, so there are particular lines in the bill that apply only to South Carolina. Those lines can be replaced by similar lines that reflect your own state’s environment.
I emphasis that this bill is designed to do provide total life cycle data on a pharmaceutical or a medical protocol:
The picture above shows the pharmaceutical life cycle data proposed for this database: from supplier to manufacturer to distributor to contractor to location of application to patient data to mortician to medical examiner to coroner. That’s data needed to quickly establish root causes.
That this has to be done at the state level and independent of influence of the government is the tragedy we have learned the hard way due to the management of Covid-19 data. It’s true that for some time the pharmas have been monkeying with testing, product qualification results, etc; and the Federal government (or whatever your national governing agencies are called) has either been highly influenced by, or bought out by the pharmas and oligarchs, but the Covid-19 management has killed and maimed so many that these influences have come into focus. Government, at any level, has no integrity now. Our only reasonable option is to do something at a relatively local level, where the citizen still has some influence, and where government and the oligarchs can be erased from the picture.
With this said, here is the proposal. My question is: Can the language be improved to meet my goals?
