The document discusses key topics from the Connected Health Leadership Summit engagement group in 2009, including developing a 20-year roadmap for connected health centered around remote patient monitoring and personalized medicine. It emphasizes improving the patient-doctor relationship over telemedicine and using smart monitoring to help diagnose patients. Connected health could help improve medication compliance and change behaviors of both patients and doctors. Pilot studies should focus on the patient perspective and enabling self-management of chronic conditions from home. Reducing healthcare's environmental impact will also drive connected health.

Leveraging Patient Support Programs in Biologic-Biosimilar Competitive LandscapeAlex Xiaoguang Zhu
Biologics are facing intense competition from biosimilars. In this competitive landscape, strategic levers for both branded biologics and biosimilars typically include payor strategy, promotion and new formulation. As patients become more engaged and patient-centricity is on the rise, there is an increased opportunity to leverage patient support programs as additional strategic lever. This presentation will cover five key learnings that we have uncovered while conducting multi-phase patient support program research for both branded biologics and biosimilars.

A few months ago I wrote an article entitled Unplanned Readmissions: Are They Quality Measures or Utilization Measures? It explained the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program (HRRP) that began in October 2012 as part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA). That article explained the program and its results over the past 5 years. However, more and more healthcare leaders and organizations are beginning to question whether HRRP is a valuable program or whether it is time to move on to something that focuses on quality of care and clinical outcomes, rather than cost savings. This article will address those issues. (In this article “readmissions” mean unplanned or preventable readmissions).

Read the scenario that you will use for the Individual Projects in each week of the course. The
Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has taken on a more visible role in health
care delivery. Many changes have transpired to improve patient safety along with the
implementation of additional quality metrics, and these changes impact reimbursement rates
Likewise, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act has changed the reimbursement fee
structure of Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement for health care services. Other legislation
including the HITECH Act and the Medicare Authorization and CHIP Reactivation Act of 2015
(MACRA) all impact how healthcare organizations receive reimbursement and demonstrate use
of data to improve quality and delivery of patient care Mr. Magone, CEO of Healing Hands

assignment is to work with the Hospital Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Johnson, and provide a
summary of the current regulations regarding Medicare reimbursement including how MACR
impact reimbursement if/when Healing Hands coordinates delivery of services by affiliating with
physician practices For this assignment, write a 2-3 page report that you will deliver to Mr.
Magone on how the new CMS initiatives and regulations impact the organization\'s revenue
structure. In your presentation, address the following questions: Why did CMS become more
involved in the reimbursement component of health care? How does CMS\'s involvement impact
the reimbursement model for Healing Hands Hospital and other health care organizations If
CMS reimbursement regulations for Medicare and Medicaid change, does it follow that other
insurance providers change heir policies on reimbursement? What tools can be implemented to
ensure organizations such as Healing Hands Hospital and physician practices are meeting the
policies and procedures set forth by CMS? Identify 3 tools from the CMS Web site that are
helpful in meeting the requirements for Medicare reimbursement set forth by CMS
Solution
Part-a & part-b:
The physician’s work, practice expense, and malpractice, RVU values, CMS (centers for

The Strategy of Identifying Solid Investment Opportunities in HealthcareTamas Ban, PhD, MBA
Consumerism in the healthcare industry is an inescapable growing trend. Patients are increasingly taking an active role in their care experience and are ever more empowered to choose their own care alternatives.
The key to driving a more consumer-based healthcare experience is to devise a cost-effective method to capture and analyze such information.
Healthcare is transforming into value-based healthcare, requiring investors to adjust their investment risk measures.
At the crossroads of healthcare and innovation lies service platform technologies. Hardware and service technologies will finally meet in 2016 to enable patient-centered healthcare services.
New key performance indicators (KPls) are necessary to measure patient outcomes, and new service platform technologies will use these new KPls.
Successful investments in healthcare ventures must show a positive impact on healthcare. The impact can be measured by cost, outcome, and alignment of incentives across payers, providers, and patients.
The 100-year-old methods used to measure the effects of medicine do not allow for personalization. Service platforms will bridge this gap.
Continuity of care relies on increasing the number of touch points, which service platform technologies will expand. They will also lead to connecting patients, providers, and payers to increase efficiency of patient care.
This paper will highlight a Quick Healthcare Value Assessment Tool for the investor.

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!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
