Free Webinar To Hear the Potential Impact on Health Tech


The moment of accreditation panel comes without warning can increase the pulse of even the most experienced executive hospital. During the next few days, which is equivalent to a big test for safety and quality of care, the surveyors also meet with executives, managers and care teams, and see closely as care is provided. Make a wrong move or give the wrong answer, do you see the rust on the roof of the spraying, the private hospital can get dinged. Get Ryan signed submitted often or have the results of serious risks for patients and their reliance (and the federal funds attached to it) may be in danger.

This is a useful and necessary exercise. It ensures that hospitals are doing what they are supposed to. For example, do you have a plan for prevention and control of diseases? Do fire drills? ¿They inspect, test and maintenance of medical equipment? Are the doctors to sign their orders and observations?

The organizers invent how hospitals to assess their reviews more visible and influential to patient safety. However, if you really want to fight for the best possible care, the elimination of the damage that can be avoided patient and reduce unnecessary costs, and abide by the rules alone is not enough. It can assist in determining the regulations "corrupt" and ensure compliance with the minimum requirements. However, these systems alone were not sufficient to transform the health care system, which is still also hurt patients are often very slowly improves and innovates wasted very little. How can we help hospitals to excel

Doctor's dilemma: the case of two right answers

Imagine a physician who runs a clinic in a low-income neighborhood, where many patients are new immigrants from all over the world. It was awarded a fixed annual budget of $ 100,000 through the local public health department, and are not likely to get additional funding later this year. Traditionally, each used its budget in recent years, which usually lasts from January to December. This allows you to take care of every few thousand of the patients who come to you for treatment throughout the year.

One day in January, a young man scared, thin shows to the clinic with a folder of medical records. He was accompanied by his aunt, who explains that recently traveled to El Salvador, where he was diagnosed as suffering from a rare form of cancer that, if left untreated, will lead to death within six months. After further investigation, you can specify that the cancer is treatable, but will require $ 50,000 of its budget to save his life. what are you doing?


Think of an ethical dilemma


Ethical dilemma here is that doctors and workers in the field of public health and often face, particularly in very poor environments: the care of the individual against the equitable distribution of resources in society in general. In this case, and the treatment of this unique patient means that there will be enough money to treat all the other patients who come to the clinic throughout the year. In economic terms, we can say that the care is not profitable for the same amount invested in the provision of clinical, can prevent many of the deaths or DALYs disability-adjusted life (years old), the largest number of patients. However, allowing the patient to die from treatable case feels wrong on so many levels.

Trump Friend & Ally: “Donald, Build Universal Healthcare!”

Think about this further, we have to look closely our values ​​as a nation and the health system: Thanks to EMTALA must, we must ensure that the patient does not allow the death of an emergency while in the hospital. Therefore, we appreciate save people from imminent, preventable death

One of the most interesting games in the analytical space companies is Ayasdi. We have provided in the Health 2.0 several times, but HIMSS had the opportunity to talk a little more in depth with the chief doctor Francis Campion about how to analyze a large number of data points, usually EMRS, and then activate the changes to its customers. The end result is more effective care and less volatility in different facilities, for example by changing when the use of drugs before surgery in order to improve results. And more and more customers are doing it across multiple clinical trails. They are really at the forefront of providing care how the data will change (a principle of our definition of Health 2.0) to watch the interview to hear and see more!
Opinions are flying. Opponents of a plan to reform health care in the United States and all of a sudden as common as waiters with a hyphen in Santa Monica. A few are worth a second look. Caen on the stack "that this will never happen" or on the stack "that will never work."

So why we should pay attention to the idea of ​​Christopher Rudy? Because prominent conservatives, CEO of Newsmax, and long-time friend and ally Trump - defending at least a "lite" version of universal coverage.

Almost everyone is talking about health care lately, and I could not take it any more, and he had to send it to the primer because there is a lot of bad information that is circulating. I do not like replacing the ACA because the idea still is based on the premise that it can be given away as an insurance of maturity. The problem is that they can not insurance "give away", it is a contradiction, if there is no skin in the game for them for the insured they would not mind.

Men and insurance voters I Trump. I only point this out because I want you to know the recommendation of healthcare is a theoretical attack to present it with any real bias of the other to bring my experience and knowledge in this regard. My idea is just independent thinking and many Republicans, liberals and Democrats hate, but I think Trump love (Independent). I see this is Trump's only way in an attempt to "solve" health care problems in the United States and keep their "all" commitment will be covered.
The proposed amendment

Bridget Duffy, marketing director of communications technology company and head of the network experience of innovation, is a national leader in the movement of the patient experience. We all agree that there are a lot of improvements needed in the experience of patients and doctors of the first line. Observers of the story of the death of my friend Jess Jacobs last year, knows that there are problems and much in the treatment of patients (never better said). Bridget told me in HIMSS17 how much we've done and how far we've got
If you are carving a large portion of Obamacare's income and convert more support to the middle class it should not be surprising that low-income people pay the price

Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates that 14 million people will lose coverage in 2018, 21 million in 2020 and 24 million in 2026 if they are allowed to plan Republicans in the House of Representatives for one Important adjustment in the reasonably priced health care bill (Obamacare).

In my last message, I called the House Republican bill "mind blowing" negative impact, and I think it will have a number of uninsured and individual insurance market viability. I guess the CBO agrees with me.

The CBO report after the Brookings Institution estimates that 15 million people lose their health care and individual health insurance at the end of ten years according to the Republican plan. In more business you can argue against S & P Global estimates that between 6,000,010 million people lose coverage between 2020 and 2024.

Call it whatever you want, and disruption or evolution, but when two of the largest for-profit hospital chains, HCA Healthcare and Tenet Healthcare, one of the largest service and insurance broker companies, Optum (part of the Group United), to invest billions of dollars in capital to build new care facilities, everyone should take note. From independent surgery centers per day (authorized for aircraft maintenance), emergency centers, clinics sponsored by pharmaceutical clinics and employers in one place, and disruption of care is all that we Surrounds

As a General Hospital community competing with Wal-Mart, CVS and Walgreens (retail clinics)? How to compete with emergency care centers? How will you compete with FREESTANDING authorized for the maintenance of the aircraft? How to Stop Consumer Desire for Hospital Saving and Comfort? How to stop the desire of doctors to provide comfort and efficiency? This is the mediation of the hospital in a very big way! In general, and the group could care for zero-based hospitals, but they need answers more in line with the consumer selling operation than charities. How many production lines are not focused on factory work


Giant SAP ERP, but in the last ten years or so has all layers of new acquisitions of analytics (Business Objects), factors of success and the development of the data platform blissful "cloudfirst". They are very quiet giant in the field of health care, partly due to an association with epic. However, the next step is to provide what they call the "democratization of data analysis" allow executives and clinicians to understand what is really happening at the well of care. It's a complex area, but one David Delaney, SAP's chief medical officer, explains in this interview from HIMSS17
On Monday, as promised, House Speaker Paul Ryan's pledge pledged to make up for the Republican Party's plan to replace the Affordable Care Act.

The American Health Care Act (AHCA): Why It’s Not Going Away Anytime Soon and What You Need to Know

In fact, Health Care in America Act (AHCA) is not a new plan. Instead, it is an updated version of the "Restoration of Liberty Health Reconciliation Act of 2015," which Congress issued October 114, issue 23 of 2015 issued before being vetoed by President Obama. Alternatives to this plan are quick to point out that the suppression and substitution effort also includes the administrative orders of the Secretary of Health and Human Services, Tom Price, and executive orders from President Trump and the legislation that must be passed through the normal system (Which requires 60 votes in the Senate). But, no doubt, the AHCA is the first and most important of these elements: it shows the cancellation and replacement of supporters that the majority of the new republic intends to enforce its promise to dismantle the Affordable Assistance Act.

Say it is the following: AHCA poll of Media Representatives and Sound and Energy Committee Committee last week. Today, the Congressional Budget Office will provide your assessment of the financial impact of the plan and the assumptions about possible changes in insurance coverage. After approval in the House, it will pass to the Senate, where it will be amended, and probably passed along party lines in light of reconciliation restrictions. It is expected that customers will be law within six weeks after the initial stage of deletion and replacement.



There are some ideas on a study of small businesses and axes e-health medium size and EC2VC investors Forum

Recently very new support for a project funded by the European Union e-Health Center in the survey of more than 300 companies and small and medium-sized European Digital Health. I was expecting some results, but I have some surprises also wanted to share.
It was said that 82% of emerging companies in the European Union under the € 100K product, including 39% of them are still being by revenue:
So I think they are right when they say that digital healers are still young in Europe. I do not like hearing to review the health of Europe Demo 2.0 applications, year after year, it is clear that the maturity of the solutions is definitely up. I can only conclude that the supply side matures faster than demand - if we talk about solutions or career oriented to the consumer.

I was also surprised to see that most small and medium businesses are working on a B2B or B2B2C solutions:
I was surprised because we always normal flow of investments we have in the United States, but the lion's share of deals follows B2C solutions there. We tend to blame investors, but perhaps the flow of our investment will be much greater if the 'C' was stronger and the Europeans were willing to open their wallets and become consumers of health


How Trump Can Eliminate Cancer in Obamacare Without Congress

Cancer is a devastating and twisted disease. All you need are a few bad cells to grow without control, first destroy the devices, then the whole person. It can also remain latent for years after the supposed to be healed, and then at some point of awakening forgiveness for the resumption of the quest and destruction of the mission. Even if the cancer is controlled, it is still left to the victim in the case of weakness or fatigue, and the shadow of the former self by the strong.

What if affordable care account, affectionately known as Obamacare, will involuntarily contract the cancer again in 2010, when it was elected in law? If it is possible to activate the cancer at any time? After all, we had to "pass the law to see what it is," according to one of its supporters. Surprise, the cancer is already asleep in the law.

Ideally, cancer is eliminated from the body completely. There is a real pleasure. For Obamacare, this would mean the abolition of perfection. Despite the campaign promises to cancel, legislative, and this is useless. This is worth a brief review as many believe that the project is simply abolishing the law of the house as possible.
Conversation our country is having medical care for the moment is not honest. It's not just Republicans and Democrats are so dishonest, in a different way. Republicans talk about death panels that deny the government's attention. Democrats talk about the death of company insurance panels. Both positions are intellectually dishonest. Both Republicans and Democrats know that part of the insurance comes close to the limits of care that would be paid by the group. Anyone outside the boundaries of care is not paid for. You can put any way you want, but this is an important part of any of the insurance companies.

Insurance, whether health or cars, is the concentration of risk. A group of people pay in the pool, and hopefully they do not have to use it - hoping they do not have the remains of their car, you do not have to go to the hospital. The few who do not have to use it to consume most of the money in the pool - the pool, the risk of spending tens of thousands of people who have suffered serious accidents, cars, or hundreds of thousands of dollars to someone who has cancer . This means that anyone in the pool helps pay for the cost of an unfortunate few. Sana paid me the costs stumbled and broke Bob's leg.

The worst part of the affordable assistance law that no one is talking about is the removal of the stoppers at annual and lifetime awards. There is no limit to the risk that the risk rebound is assumed. For the Commission Against Corruption, an annual limit on the insurance plan could be $ 500,000, with a lifetime lifetime limit of $ 2,000,000 to $ 5. Gone are the hats now - there is no limit to the Amount of money that pool risk to pay to keep someone alive.

The new FDA Commissioner

That the appointment of Scott Gottlieb to head the FDA has elicited a decidedly mixed response is a good thing. I fear consensus as much as the late Christopher Hitchens loved dissent which, he believed, was an indicator of a healthy democracy, which means that rather than facing the morgue, the US might be going through her healthiest days in these times.

Gottlieb has served on the boards of industry, and earned a nifty pocket money doing so. Detractors argue that he’s unfit to head the FDA because of his financial conflict of interest (FCOI). I will not revisit the arguments for and against physician’s FCOI with industry, because all arguments for and against have been made, and it’s unlikely that anyone’s mind will change with new evidence or new arguments. Suffice it to say that both sides have plausible arguments, and we’ll never know the truth, because to know the real impact of physician’s FCOI with industry we need parallel universes with everything held constant, except the degree of physician ties with industry, and measure the net benefits to society in terms of morbidity, mortality, drug prices, and innovations.

Transparency of prices and all their very large grain

Transparency - including the price, quality and effectiveness of medical services is a vital element in reducing costs and improving results. However, transparency is inevitable go hand in hand with financial incentives for patients and consumers. Otherwise, the search will be in vain. Better way to reduce costs while not deteriorating health outcomes is the redistribution of health care resources less profitable for these more profitable. Americans are very uncomfortable with the idea of ​​price-based decision making, but you need to have fluency in the language and the cost of making the most comfortable decisions based on price information for health costs to stabilize.

Lawmakers have proposed in more than 30 states of legislation to improve price transparency, with most efforts focused on the middle of the publication, the average price of hospital services. Some states already have price transparency policies in place. California requires hospitals to give the estimated costs for outpatient procedures more commonly 25. Texas patients require providers to provide price information to patients on request. Ohio passed a price transparency law in the past year. But a lawsuit filed by the Ohio Association of Hospitals has delayed enforcement. The cost of knee replacement is $ 15,500 at the Oklahoma Surgery Center, while the national average is $ 49,500.
Health care economics: Why these things do not really work the way they understand
This is a letter to Gary Cohen, who was appointed by the president of Trump to lead the National Economic Council and, among other things, to develop a health care reform plan. Former Goldman Sachs chief, Cohen may be the processor of financing, but the health care economy will vary widely famous and not transparent. So I thought you'd like to help.]

Topic: About economics and health. (8 minutes)

Q Why is the health care economy different.

Q Why fight against corruption and failure body.

O What action.

Who am I (roles): author and independent health care analyst since the Jimmy Carter administration. Speaker, industry consultant at all levels, including insurance companies, hospitals, device manufacturers, employers, veterans, and medicine, and the World Health Organization, Ministry of Defense. It seems to me: ImagineWhatIf.com. Books on Amazon.

The basic problem: The main problem of health reform is the real cost of medical care.

Health care Q in the United States before taking any measure that costs approximately double what it should be.
Q is cut medical price perfectly than the cost of production.
Few medical providers even know the real cost of ownership of their products.
Q for a series of at least a third of that analysis (over $ 1 trillion this year) is a waste, and pay for things we do not need and that do not help.
The only federal solution part of this could completely erase the deficit.

Trying to "take over the world," will always be impossible, political and economic, as long as health care costs double what it should and billions of dollars of waste.

Workaround: This problem has a workaround. Change the relationship of the real sector customers by converting the payment system, pushing the business model of innovation. Stop paying for junk, and $ 1 trillion / year in unnecessary overtreatment will disappear. However, the price is reduced to what appears to be the actual market price. This is not going to happen overnight, but it can happen more than five years with an effective application.

Why does it cost so much?

There are no price indices: the structure of the health care market in the United States since the 1980s made price signals not transparent. Healthcare customers ask a different question to customers in most markets. If hospitals (such as clients of providers) or people needing surgery, and health clients often do not ask, "Can we dispose of it?" Or even "What is the best value for money?" They ask, "Are you covered? Can we get paid for this?" And being paid or covered by the complex mechanisms of the market is that in most of the market are the same opaque to the set of customers. So there are no real customers and no real price signal in most relationships throughout the market

Continuous coverage of health reform elements: if they are benign

Proposal of the chamber to cancel and replace the Anti-Corruption Commission appeared this week. Treat Republican health care plan to seduce us with the promise of lower premiums and get rid of the unit's mandate. Obamacare no longer infringe on personal freedom and financial stability, a boast. But do not be fooled by your ACA alternatives. GOP proposal is not the best thing for us. In fact, it's worse.

I share this vision as a doctor and policy makers in the field of training. In this role, it is my duty to identify and mitigate and manage risks to the patient's health and well-being. Sometimes these clear threats - for example, a heart attack, pneumonia or financial hardship imposed by exorbitant medical bills. But at other times, I must rely on training to detect more subtle health threats, such as heart murmurs, high blood pressure, and the terms "continuous coverage" in health care bills.

This latter threat may seem strange, but consistently provisions for continued coverage even in the prominent Republican health proposals showed. Terms of continued coverage we erroneously think that we would be low guaranteed insurance market prices. But the problem is that if there is an imbalance in coverage lasting more than two months, then insurance companies can walk up the price of the policy. The latter proposed capped price rises to 130% of ordinary insurance premiums for the first year. However, this limit can be changed, as in previous versions allowed insurance premiums up to 150% for the first 18 months.

Its aim is to provide continuous coverage to achieve the same goal for the state of the individual commission against corruption. Both policies encourage young and healthy to buy insurance. Publishing these vivacious citizens helps pay for the large compensation, claims for expensive, which reduces sick and elderly premiums in the population.

But there is a big difference between a serious politics and whispers in the Obamacare and those of the substitution plan. While the US mandate Of individual ACA taxes if we withdraw, the coverage requirement to continue to punish us at the time we try to select this option. For any of us, it may be cost-acquisition of reinsurance after the very high temporary password that we will not be able to produce a new cover.

Even those Americans who are not sick and the poor at the moment could be adversely affected by an ongoing Republican push coverage. The need for acute or chronic medical care is impossible to predict, and financial health is also uncertain. As Sendhil Mullainathan, an economist at Harvard University, and the Shaffer House, Princeton Scientific Cognitive explains in his book, Scarcity, not one of us safe from the types of errors that cause insurance lapses. Citing studies from a variety of fields, and explore these experts how financial and emotional stress leads to difficult tasks such as paying bills and deadlines. This happens because the more tasks we are responsible for doing, the less we are able to do it right.

What does this mean for the health reform and welfare system of Americans? Change jobs, and launch new creation, and provide for a divorce and all occasions where you may even need a healthy and wealthy new insurance plan, but will be limited in your ability to meet this need. In view of these great events of life, anyone can be limited bandwidth knowledge, making all citizens vulnerable to unforeseen interruptions in coverage.

So far, the leaders of the Republican Party have developed in close collaboration with the mentality of alternatives that look better than the Obamacare. And, at first glance, element of continuous coverage of benign aspect. However, the push in their proposals do not shepherd us to safety. It will lead us to the abyss.

Perhaps continuing coverage providing would be less dangerous if you are disengaged from job insurance, changes in work status are some of the most common reasons for a disruption in coverage. Unfortunately, Republicans are unlikely to pursue this type of reform, since although insurance premiums have been cut in absolute terms, patients feel as if they are high, the cost comes clearly from our pockets rather than pay for It is hidden by employers. There is an alternative way of making the terms of human insurance continuous coverage also have been put to our default in America. This did not happen either

Health Catalyst: Dale Sanders in what is the next step for analyzing large data

One of the most interesting players in the field of health technology is Dale Sanders who Geek Data / CIO in organizations with multiple providers (InterMountain, northwest, Cayman Islands), was in the nuclear weapons program in the Force United States Air Force in its day, now is the vision of the product into Catalyst of Health. Health catalyst is very well supported by the company's history of storage and analysis that has Kaiser, partners, Alina and a lot of third-party clients and investors (the THCB sponsor for some time!). I met CEO Dan Burton a couple of times (here in 2016) if you want to know more about the basics of the company, but this chat with Daly at HIMSS17 gave more philosophical guy about the future analysis, from the "Conference room analyzes" to "resolution help is an integral part". I found it very funny, and I hope you do too!
