ABOUT THE MOVIE Where: Michigan Theater 603 E. Liberty Street, Ann Arbor Map on page 4 When: Monday, June 29th, 4:00 - 6:00 pm The “No Matter Where” documentary brings alive the concept of health information exchange and its importance to effective and safe healthcare. To assume that doctors always have access to your medical information, no matter where it is needed, is wrong. Your medical information may be trapped behind a closed door--unable to be retrieved when you are in the emergency room, or the victim of a natural disaster, or even when you are traveling. However, thanks to ordinary citizens exhibiting extraordinary tenacity, we have begun to witness a transformation in the healthcare system, where patient information is available no matter where it is needed. This transformation has been slow, at times painful, occasionally dramatic, unfortunately, traumatic to some, and not universally supported. This 76-minute documentary follows the journey of pioneers who have shepherded us into this era and provides a glimpse into the lives of patients, healthcare providers and advocates and adversaries from the public and private sectors. Follow a team of crusaders—doctors, nurses, widows, parents, and spouses—working to fix this problem. http://umhealth.me/nmw-aa #NMWAA 1 PROGRAM GUIDE

PROGRAM GUIDE

Kevin B. Johnson, MD, MS is Cornelius Vanderbilt Professor of Pediatrics and Biomedical Informatics at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. Kevin is a long-time advocate in helping the nation’s healthcare system better utilize patient data for treatment, as well as for discovery and improving the system. He brings to this foray into the world of filmmaking his more than 30 years of experience in music, theatre and photography—all ways to communicate important issues, feelings, and opinions to a wide audience.

DR. KEVIN B. JOHNSON FILMMAKER

ABOUT THE FILMMAKER

“At first glance, it might be an obvious conclusion that since many clinical practices use computers to record information and to look up past records, and since hospitals also use computers to look up information, these clinical practices must be exchanging data among themselves and among hospitals in the region. Unfortunately, while this has been a dream for many decades, it has yet to be fully realized in this country. It is extremely challenging, although not the least bit because of technical issues. Rather, it is because patients do not ask for it, not all clinicians believe they need it, no one is willing to pay for it, and because some of the basic standards to connect one system to another are adopted by one system but not the other. There are people all over the country working to achieve this, and they are slowly making progress.” "" - Dr. Kevin B. Johnson, Executive Producer of “No Matter Where”
