The document discusses implementing self-tracking and quantified self techniques in medical care. It describes how the author has worked in various medical fields over the years and become interested in helping patients track their own health metrics. A "Quant Coach" role is proposed, as someone who helps patients implement self-tracking tools and reflect on the data, with the goal of empowering patients and improving outcomes. The author notes some current pilot programs using this approach and believes the bottom-up model of engaged self-tracking patients, rather than top-down healthcare system changes, may be most effective for fixing healthcare.
