When a Silicon Valley entrepreneur tried to get help, he took the most sick bureaucracy – transferring their health history from one doctor to another, from one medical center to the next.
Entering Anil Seti Silicon Valley Headquarters, a free-spirited woman poses for a large corporate logo. The artist showed one person: his younger sister Tanya.
“Tanya has always been more spiritual than flesh,” Seti told CBS News Dana Jacobson.
Doctors at the Johns Hopkins Medical Center, 46, gave Tania two weeks to live.
“I always thought you could overcome this. She tried many different treatments,” she said.
Seti joins Tannie in her fight against advanced breast cancer. He brought support and they think he will learn more about the health care system.
I’ve been doing what I’ve been doing for over three decades now, and I do Electronic health information, “Seti said
He recently took a leave of absence from the health care company Apple. It was at this point that he learned some of the basics of medical information.
That year, when I followed her during the treatment, she appeared in tons, and this meant that she left a trail of information about your medical information wherever she went. And it’s just fragmented. He remembered.
“Healthcare is still using a lot of faxes and pager, and this is the 21st century,” she said.
In the 21st century, having a different medical record was a gut-wrenching affair, and Lynn McMahon didn’t want it either. She was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma.
Chemotherapy helped, but she wanted to be in a clinical trial related to her and her illness – and Seth wanted his sister.
I was hooked up in her hospital room in Hopkins, and I angrily went through all the clinical test sites out there but found nothing. The organization has not been audited.
He could not find anything to save his sister. Tanya loses her battle with cancer.
She said, “Well, what are you going to do?” I said, “What do you mean?” After I died, she left and I said, “Look, I don’t know.” She said, ‘Well, those who don’t go are here, they don’t retire, and they don’t take the Sabbath, and they don’t go to the beach.’ I said, “Yes, Mum.” “I know Tanya was the first motivation for me to do this,” she said.
His sister’s last wish was to use his experiences to disrupt the day-to-day running of the medical bureaucracy. He set up a company and called it Citizen.
It is an online system for patients to upload and store their medical records. The service is free for all patients.

“I was getting ready to go to Chemo, and at that time, Citizen sent me an email. By the way, we are looking at your information. Here are some clinical tests that we think you may need. ‘ It’s because she sent me information. ”
Cysteine is now in her third year, and Seti is full of unspoken words about her sister’s recovery from cancer. Cancer patients are the origin, but he is determined to give all sick and non-sick citizens a special place in their medical records and to associate the sick with experiments.
“I saw what happened in your medical record when Tanya died. And all the good things are in the clinical notes. And that’s not available. And I know how to get that. And it was reasonable,” Seth.
