Participatory Medicine: Must You Be Rich to Participate?
“Participatory Medicine is a movement in which networked patients shift from being mere passengers to responsible drivers of their health, and in which providers encourage and value them as full partners.[1]”
Our lofty definition of participatory medicine requires patients who are both interested and capable of taking an active role in their health care as well as providers who have time to listen and work together in a partnership with patients.
We fear that this movement may be leaving too many people behind.........

short video: Participatory Medicine and Declaration
"Participatory Medicine is a cooperative model of health care that encourages and expects active involvement by all connected parties (patients, caregivers, healthcare professionals, etc.) as integral to the full continuum of care. The ‘participatory’ concept may also be applied to fitness, nutrition, mental health, end-of-life care, and all issues broadly related to an individual’s health."

AMA news: Participatory medicine: A high-tech alliance with patients
"At its most basic level, participatory medicine means shared decision-making and deep patient engagement. Because of the rise in technology use -- as well as an increase in out-of-pocket health care expenses -- this has gone well beyond the traditional tell-me-where-it-hurts conversation between patient and doctor in the exam room....Physicians "are afraid this is something that will cost them time and money, and it will create arguments with patients," Dr. Greene said."
