Data Driven Healthcare That Work: A Physician Group PerspectiveHealth Catalyst
Crystal Run Healthcare shares their story about using proven strategies to care for patients in an accountable care model by using data to drive those strategies. Gregory A. Spencer, MD, FACP, CMO, and CMIO at Crystal Run Healthcare discusses why they moved towards analytics and data warehousing as well as the 6 requirements their health system had as they searched for a partner: 1) The solution needed to hit the ground running. 2) The solution needed to provide quick, actionable data. 3) There needed to be a library of analytical applications. 4) The healthcare data model needed to be able to evolve. 5) They needed to be taught how to fish for the data. 6) A long-term relationship with the vendor was important
Physician-Hospital Integration Strategies to Maximize the Bottom Line for Ort...Wellbe
Economic pressures on physicians and hospitals have increased attention on integration and collaboration between providers. The passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) has propelled physician-hospital integration onto the national stage, forcing physicians and hospitals to change and accelerate their alignment structures with each other to meet the ACA’s mandates: quality excellence, population health management, efficiency, and cost savings. This presentation provides a detailed overview of strategies for the orthopedic service line that have been successfully implemented in order to achieve the Triple Aim while enhancing alignment with the service line’s physicians.

PYA Principal Lori Foley presented on “Hospital-Owned Orthopaedic Practices” at the Tennessee Orthopaedic Society Annual Meeting. With many providers considering hospital employment, this session focused on:
Employment activity specific to orthopaedics including some of the pros and cons that private practice physicians should consider when evaluating this option.
Other alignment arrangements taking place between hospitals and orthopaedic practices.
The external healthcare environment is changing rapidly and providers are under increasing pressure to innovate with increasing speed and efficiency.
Be it experimenting with new care delivery models to improve care coordination, redesigning workflows to enhance efficiency, or developing new products that improve clinical outcomes, hospitals and their service lines are looking for effective ways to harness the creative power of physicians and employees to solve problems that matter. However, few organizations innovate in an orderly, reliable way.
Great ideas remain captive in the heads of physicians and employees and one-off attempts to spur innovation through “hack-a-thons” and “pitch days” prove disappointing. As an academic medical center and a world leader in orthopedics, Hospital for Special Surgery has a long history of results-oriented innovation.
In this webinar, we will share:
– HSS’ systematic approach for driving innovation
– strategies for generating new insights and developing novel solutions
– processes for piloting and testing new ideas
– guiding principles for creating a culture of innovation
– advice on how to build your very own innovation infrastructure

Description of the Business
Wickham Hospital is a rural hospital that provides quality healthcare services to the local community. Our mission is to engage in the promotion of healthier lives by providing quality healthcare services. This is to be executed in a fiscally responsible way that promotes the social, physical, spiritual and psychological wellbeing of the community and patients it serves. Further, the hospital aims at serving all members of the community regardless of their gender, religion, race or age.
Among the services provided by the hospital include outpatient and inpatient services, emergency services, primary care, skilled nursing care, center for rehabilitation medicine, a lung cancer center and surgical services. Our main competitors are some hospitals established within the same community. Among these are Greenview Hospital, Jordan Memorial Hospital and Sloan Hospital. These hospitals offer outpatient and inpatient services as well as other services such as primary stroke services, rehabilitation for pediatric polio patients.
Recommendations to Stand out of the Competition
To stay on top of the competition, Wickham Hospital needs to invest and adapt to the most recent technology to ensure efficient delivery of quality medical services. Further, all healthcare personnel needs to undergo further training through platforms such as seminars and online educational forums. This will promote safe and efficient delivery of services to patients as they promote the quality of life within the community. Besides this, management needs to be keener with the appropriate allocation and deployment of resources to ensure that all areas are sufficiently covered (Enthoven, 2014).
How to Accommodate a Global Business Environment
The hospital currently serves the adjacent community and a few consumers from the outskirts. To broaden into the global business environment, a few strides should be taken. For instance, a website should be created describing the business and services offered. This way, international consumers will seek the business even when they come visiting within the local community. Further, the organization could seek for international investors whose partnership or involvement would attract international healthcare consumers towards the organization (Lunt & Mannion, 2014). The business ...

Strategic Planning ScenarioBackground
Stevens District Hospital is a 162-bed acute care hospital that is qualified as a not for profit facility. The hospital was originally a county-owned facility and its status was transferred to an independent facility three years ago. The hospital receives no external funding from government agencies for operations. The hospital is accredited by The Joint Commission and received reaccreditation during their triannual survey last year. The hospital has an aggressive quality management program and a low volume of medical malpractice claims. The hospital is located in Jefferson City, which is a city of 50,000 with 80,000 in the regional market. The hospital provides a general range of acute care services, including medical/surgical, rehab, and emergency care. Current Performance AnalysisMission and Vision
Our mission: To improve health by providing high-quality care, a comprehensive range of services, and exceptional service.
Our vision: Stevens District Hospital and its affiliates will be the health care provider of choice for physicians and patients. Our five year vision is to create a large, multispecialty physician practice system that would include at least six family practice physicians and specialists in cardiology, oncology, and women’s services. Currently, the hospital employs three family practice physicians, one obstetrician, one medical oncologist, and one non-invasive cardiologist. Previous Strategic Plan Review
Goal
Accomplishments
Increase market share by recruiting three family practice physicians.
The hospital was able to recruit only one family practice physician to increase primary care market this past year. The limited number of state medical school graduates makes local recruitment difficult.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
