An infographic with the title "2014: The Year of the Digitally-Native HCP" [Healthcare Provider]. It is divided into four sections : A definition of "Digital Native" within this context a simple timeline a bar chart (with elements of a timeline) and 11 text boxes (each listing the date of a major Acceleration of Technology (ex : the creation of PubMed in 1996)). The infographic argues that "a doctor who qualified during or after the internet went mainstream and has relied on digital interactions through connective digital technologies for his/her entire professional career" is a Digital Native - that is any doctor born after 1970 who has therefore had "mainly digital experience". The bar chart shows that HCPs who were born earlier have had more years of practice before the internet was invented less internet exposure before promotion and less practicing HCPS/internet accessibility before their (eventual) retirement. The totality suggests a cultural divide between older HCPs and younger HCPs but does not discuss the challenges and opportunities extant. It could also be interpreted as unfavorably biased against older HCPs who are represented as "dinosaurs" (via clip art-style silhouettes). The background is white with graphic elements in blue pink green and orange with text in white blue and black.
