Dr. Alan Adler, Medical Director of Independence Blue Cross, recently wrote an excellent article in Managed Care Magazine entitled, "Why Blogs?"

Not everyday that a stodgy industry trade publication addresses blogs in such a thoughtful way. Dr. Adler argues that blogs are increasingly relevant for providing consumer health information and for providing refreshingly candid insights, perspectives, and conversations amongst the medical and healthcare professionals.

Though he failed to mention hospital impact, his list of blogs is definitely worth checking out!
