Your voice in creating a better experience.

The folks over at Dean Clinic have a cool program called “Dean Listens.” Long story short: It’s an interactive online way to quickly gather meaningful opinions about things at Dean Clinic. You DON’T have to be a Dean Clinic patient or have Dean Health Plan insurance to participate — it’s open to everyone.

Unlike traditional (and awful) online survey research, it’s not page after page of boring surveys with thousands of check boxes. It’s way better than that. We saw the survey interface, and it’s kind of (dare we say it) fun.

So why would you want to do this? Simple. It’s a way for you to provide direct feedback about various aspects of health care and Dean Clinic. Short and sweet. Right to the point. Dean, in turn, uses your confidential feedback and makes system-wide improvements and upgrades for the benefit of everyone.

They even throw in some chances to win cool Amazon.com gift cards and charitable donations in your name.

Here’s the link to get started with Dean Listens.

This just in: Dean Clinic launches the nation’s first iPhone app for MyChart.

Everyone here at Refresh You is always on the lookout for something cool and fun. This morning, we found out that Dean Clinic just released an app for Apple mobile devices (like the iPhone) which provides access to your MyChart account.

Go have a look at the new MyChart app.

As you’d expect, the interface is slick and intuitive and just darned cool. Here’s the best part: Dean is the first healthcare organization in the country to offer it!

As you know, we’re big on the traditional web-based MyChart system because the convenience and information are remarkable. (If you’re a Dean patient, you ARE taking advantage of this, right? If not, you can click here to get signed up for MyChart. It’s free.)

But now, this new MyChart app offers true mobility, instant access and optimized convenience. That means you’re no longer required to be in front of a traditional desktop or laptop computer to access the benefits of the MyChart system. Instead, you’ll have access to MyChart anywhere your Apple mobile device works. How cool is that?

Answers to questions that haven’t been asked yet:

1. Yes, it’s free.

2. Of course it’s secure. Very secure.

3. You can ONLY get it at the App Store. You know, the app on your iPhone/iPad/iPod touch. Just search for “MyChart.” (Alternatively, you can get it through the iTunes interface and then sync it to your device.)

4. With the MyChart app, you can view your health information, stay in touch with your physician with secure messaging, manage your appointments, get lab results the instant they’re available, access your family’s health information and much more.

5. Yeah, only for Apple products like the iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

6. No, it’s not just mobile web. It’s an actual app. A very well-designed app.

7. If you have an iPad and install this, your coolness factor will be higher than we can possibly imagine. (We’re soooooo jealous.)

8. Here’s complete information over at the Dean Clinic site.
