I've always said that focusing on the positive will lead to the best results and the same holds true for healthcare. Based on feedback from talking with patients while researching my current book and on the results of several surveys I've conducted I found that most people, while they may have had hurdles to overcome in a particular situation, often shared a story about a single person or event that was positive and helped them get through. I've launched a new site, Happy Time of the Day that shares one of these stories each day with you both online and through email.
So many times people focus on the negative aspects of the healthcare system, HappyTimeOfTheDay.com embraces what's right with healthcare by providing short positive stories about the US healthcare system submitted by real people.
