What is it?
Other objectives?
(equity, merit goods)
• Clear, measurable goals.• Cost-effective plan.• Evaluate rigorously.

Market Working Well Overall…
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
But Market Not Working for All People in All Places…
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Gaps reflect a market failure only if total benefits > total costs of connecting ‘have-nots’.
Possible market failures:•Positive Externalities: everyone benefits with more people online•Information: people don’t know what they’re missing
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• Benefit to household from subscribing = PB (private benefit)• Positive externality = E• Cost to connect = C
• Assume C > PB.
• If C <= PB + E then nonsubscriber does reflect a market failure.• If C > PB + E then nonsubscriber does not reflect a market failure.
Existence of nonsubscribers does not necessarily indicate a market failure.
Difficult to know whether nonsubscriber reflects market failure or not.
Do Nonsubscribers Reflect a Market Failure?

Economic Benefits of Residential Broadband
In 2006 broadband created about $10b in new GDP. About $6b of that was new consumer surplus.
Greenstein, Shane M. and Ryan McDevitt. February, 2009. "The Broadband Bonus: Accounting for Broadband Internet's Impact on U.S. GDP." NBER Working Paper # 14758.

Does New Broadband Investment Create Jobs?
New infrastructure: Construction and related jobs.(as long labor and capital do not move from other projects).
Presence of new broadband: Probably not too many.
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
No major availability market failure.No huge economic effects from connecting remainder
No longer the issue
Universal broadband IS the policy objective.
Question is how to achieve it in most cost-effective manner.

Why Do Non-Subscribers Not Subscribe?

Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Biggest bang for buck in terms of improvements to consumer welfare and broadband penetration:
Helping low-income people connect (eg, One Economy model).

Policies must have clearly defined, measurable goals
Broadband stimulus does not.• Is objective to maximize stimulus or broadband improvement?
71 Economists proposed competitive procurement (reverse auctions). • Forces government to clarify goals and make decisions rationally.• Can lead to lowest-cost subsidy and thus have biggest effect.
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Build evaluation in from the beginning
• Ex post evaluation of grant recipients and funded projects is insufficient.
(Selection bias, difficult to determine if project was inframarginal)
• Success stories do not constitute evaluation and do not prove the grant was useful.
• Project failures do not prove that program failed. Government is supposed to take risks. If no project fails then probably being too conservative.

Better Data
Surveys, not (or at least in addition to) mapping!!
Advantages:
•Cheap because many government agencies conduct surveys already.o US Census American Community Surveyo Bureau of Labor Statistics Consumer Expenditure Surveyo Bureau of Economic Analysis business surveys
• Consistently updated.
• Easily combined with socioeconomic and geographic data.
• Do not rely on cooperation from providers.
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Conclusions:•Broadband is not really economic stimulus in policy sense.
•Universal broadband IS policy goal for other reasons.
•Policies designed to help low-income people connect are likely to be the most cost-effective first step.
•Define clear, measurable goals and get there in the lowest-cost way.
•Think carefully about evaluation.
•Coordinate government agencies to gather valuable data on broadband using existing surveys.

Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• Fragmented silos of paper driven care
• Sometimes our care in neither safe nor effective
• Rarely is our care cost conscious
• Almost always we have a herd driven one size fits most approach
• We are a supply driving demand industry searching for consumers
Our Common Present
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Our Uncommon Future
• My EHR becomes a Me-HR
• My data is a visual image that I can understand
• My physicians provide care designed for me based on robust bioinformatics
• I am able to report my own health status through ubiquitous biosensors
• My medical home is my home
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
With a Path Ahead
• If we continue to understand our emergent coherence
• If we migrate to a fully integrated m health and e-health 3.0 platform
• If our sensor and imaging technology advances
• If our high performance computing supports new algorithms for social, clinical and geographical interdependencies
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• My health care system can reach me anywhere anytime and I can reach back
But Only If

Patients in Need
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Ready for Me Health
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• We need to recognize the same health fragility in our rural communities today is present during disasters
• And that H1N1 or something like it will produce even more dramatic stress on unconnected communities
And While on the Road
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• AIMS Our Statewide Situational Awareness Tool.
The Current State of Affairs
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
AIMS creates reliance on public health based upon user perception that by inputting needs those can and will be met, without knowing whether the ESF structure can meet those needs.
The Current State of Affairs
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• Many of the resources are hard coded-SNS stockpile, ventilators and may not match the real needs of rural patients or the healthcare providers.
• ESF handoffs are no assurance of a fulfillment of a request particularly in rural communities
• Even relatively small events can be the tipping point to push rural health systems to being overwhelmed
Barriers to Being Transactional
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
• We need to recognize that there is a gap between that which we can do and that which needs to be done
• We need to fill in that gap by creating greater capability in our rural health care providers and giving them the tools to succeed
• We can do that by moving to a more robust communication structure including virtual response
Which Means
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
An always on virtual system of response and care when IT happens
With the ability to allow anyone, anywhere to help
Assuming there is bandwidth to connect the dots
The Path to Emergent Coherence
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Any situational awareness information from any source
I Track
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
To use discussions for specific information sharing realizing rural communities may not be the first site to experience the event.
Forums
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
The ability to ask for anything from anyone
I Need
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
The ability to find the right resource and to close the transaction
I Can Help
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Mobile Imaging Technology
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Crowd sourcing as an effective surveillance tool
I Saw
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Extensible inclusion of emerging tools with the ability to connect any cell phone to any laptop anywhere in the world.
Ushahidi
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
Connecting patients with their records no matter where treated and using data to prioritize care.
RMEDE
Developing a National Broadband Strategy: Deployment, Adoption and the Stimulus
