The Texas Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Program (TEHDI) was established in 1999 to require newborn hearing screenings and follow-up services. Over 400,000 babies are born in Texas each year, and 2-3 per 1,000 are born with hearing loss. TEHDI works to screen newborns and ensure those who do not pass are referred for diagnostic evaluation and early intervention services if needed. TEHDI receives funding from Medicaid, grants from the CDC and HRSA, and works to reduce the rate of loss to follow-up through outreach and education.

The Hancock Healthcare Access Initiative aims to improve access to emergency and primary care in Hancock County through a partnership model. Hancock County ranks poorly in health factors, social economic factors, and physical environment. Approximately 68% of emergency room visits were for non-emergent issues and there is limited primary care access. The initiative would use emergency medical technicians trained in telemedicine to conduct in-home exams and diagnostics to treat non-emergency issues. This would decrease emergency room overuse and transportation costs while strengthening primary care. The goals are to enhance emergency care, decrease non-emergency transportation and emergency room use, provide 24/7 minor illness access, and ultimately decrease hospital readmissions by improving care transitions and prevention.

This document discusses the Independent Hospital Pricing Authority's (IHPA) work on pricing reforms beyond 2020. Key points include:
1) IHPA sets national efficient prices, develops classification systems, and handles cross-border disputes to promote transparency, value, and efficiency in the public hospital system.
2) IHPA is moving public hospital funding toward an activity-based funding model, with blocks of funding still used in some areas. This has led to a significant slowdown in cost growth.
3) IHPA is developing pricing approaches to incentivize safety, quality and efficiency. This includes not funding episodes involving sentinel events, paying less for episodes complicated by hospital-acquired conditions,

Telehealth patient education
Telehealth allows patients to have videoconference consultations with specialists from home, providing convenience and privacy. The process involves scheduling appointments, registration, reviewing records, signing forms, the video visit, discussing treatment plans, and follow-up appointments as needed. Telehealth aims to improve access to healthcare, especially in remote areas, but some consultations may not be suitable and require in-person visits. It uses technologies like phones, videoconferencing, and computers to connect patients and providers while maintaining privacy, security, and legal standards. Overall, telehealth can enhance treatment adherence at a lower cost than traditional in-hospital care.

NHS Atlas of Variation for People with Respiratory Disease
The document summarizes findings from The NHS Atlas of Variation in Healthcare for Respiratory Disease, which presents evidence of stark variation in the quality of care and outcomes for people with respiratory diseases like COPD and asthma depending on where they live in England. It discusses unwarranted variation in healthcare and factors like willingness of doctors to offer treatment. Case studies show how integrated care models and initiatives to improve inhaler technique have reduced hospital admissions and costs in some areas.
Professor Sue Hill OBE, Chief Scientific Officer for England
We are excited to introduce the NHS Atlas of Variation in Diagnostic Services, the latest publication in the series of impressive NHS Atlases, which have highlighted variation in the provision of healthcare services.
Diagnostic services are of great importance in the NHS because, when used correctly, they support or rule out potential diagnoses, and underpin the effective and efficient management of patient pathways.
Unwarranted variation in the rates of diagnostic testing is of the utmost relevance to individual patients with the over-use, as well as under-use, of diagnostic tests being potentially serious issues. For example, effective capacity planning in imaging services should enable improved patient access balanced against the need to avoid over-use of interventions that have the potential to cause harm, such as ionising radiation.

Mexico City Presentation, August 19, 2008
The document discusses how HIV/AIDS donors interact with national health systems in Mozambique, Uganda, and Zambia. It focuses on three components: health information systems, supply chain systems for essential medicines, and human resources for health. The document recommends that donors coordinate their information needs with country health systems, pursue shared distribution of medicines, and help finance new health worker hires to strengthen these systems while expanding AIDS programs. Doing so could benefit both AIDS responses and overall country health systems.

Developing national capacity for research and research ethics to improve deci...WHO Regional Office for the Eastern Mediterranean
This document discusses developing national capacity for research and ethics to improve health decision making. It notes calls since 2005 to use research evidence in policies, but limited progress due to mismatches between evidence and policy needs. Health research investment is comparatively low in the Eastern Mediterranean Region. National research priority setting and stewardship capacities are limited. While most countries have ethics committees, important decisions are not always ethically based. Examples of WHO regional initiatives aim to strengthen implementation research, guidelines, and ethics. Main questions center on the most effective modalities to improve evidence-informed decision making within ministries of health and partnerships with academic institutions. Barriers to evidence-based policies need to be overcome and countries can learn from each other's experiences.Bringing healthcare to the pateint by M. Waind
This document discusses how Altru Health System in North Dakota is using telemedicine and connectivity to bring healthcare services to rural patients. Key points:
- 50% of Altru hospital patients are discharged to rural areas outside of major cities, so telemedicine is important for continuing their care.
- Altru supports regional healthcare through services like telestroke, telepharmacy, and hosting medical records for critical access hospitals.
- Strong, reliable broadband connectivity is essential for telemedicine services like remote patient monitoring, specialty consultations, and keeping smaller rural clinics open via telemedicine. This helps improve access and reduce costs compared to transporting patients long distances.

Future of Telehealth - The Harris Poll
Most Americans are comfortable with telehealth services and many will continue using them after the pandemic. Over 65% of Americans are comfortable with telehealth and 63% of those who have used it plan to continue doing so after COVID-19. When given a choice, over 40% would prefer a mix of in-person and telehealth services. Common uses for telehealth include asking medical questions, reviewing test results, and getting prescription refills. One-third of Americans would consider replacing some primary care doctor visits with telehealth services.
Right Care Overview and National Roll Out
1. Right Care is an approach developed by NHS England to maximize value in healthcare by helping health systems identify wasteful spending and redirect resources to more effective interventions.
2. It does this through a methodology involving clinical leadership, data analysis, engagement, and processes to design optimal care pathways focused on patient populations rather than just individual patients.
3. The goal is to deliver more efficient and sustainable healthcare through reducing unwarranted variation in spending and outcomes across different regions and conditions.

Implementing The Chronic Disease Management Framework - Shared Care - M Goulb...Michelle Goulbourne @ DiaMind Health
The document discusses implementing chronic disease prevention and management frameworks in Canada. It notes that chronic diseases are a major cause of death and disability in Canada, costing $45 billion annually. The goals of chronic disease prevention and management frameworks are to reduce care discontinuities, increase prevention behaviors, improve population health, and reduce costs through a coordinated, systems approach. However, the document outlines several issues with implementing these frameworks in Canada, including a lack of governance to support inter-organizational collaboration, incomplete examples and evidence to support all aspects of the frameworks, and discontinuities in care due to a lack of integration between organizations.Tele-Health Monitoring by Maureen Ideker
This document discusses tele-home monitoring programs for patients with conditions like heart failure and diabetes. It provides examples of programs that have used daily video visits and monitoring of vitals to save costs on long-term care for an elderly diabetic woman and reduce heart failure readmission rates. Research studies are summarized that found tele-home monitoring reduced hospitalizations and emergency room visits while improving outcomes when combined with care coordination. The document concludes by outlining the financial benefits to counties from keeping patients healthy at home and reducing long-term care costs through remote monitoring programs.

State of EHR in New Zealand
New Zealand has a publicly funded healthcare system with universal coverage. It has a national electronic health record system including a unique patient identifier used for over 20 years. Most primary care practices use comprehensive electronic medical record systems integrated with labs and prescribing. Hospitals use integrated clinical workstations and patient administration systems. The national health IT plan aims to achieve high quality integrated care through shared care programs and national clinical systems like ePrescribing. Standards are developed through HISO and openEHR is used to define content and enable data sharing and secondary use through a shared health information platform.

The document discusses communications strategies in Australia to increase public awareness of organ donation. It outlines the establishment of the Australian Organ and Tissue Authority to oversee donation efforts. Key strategies included increased funding for hospitals, educating healthcare professionals, and national community awareness campaigns using media, events, and social platforms to encourage discussion of donation wishes and registration rates. Monitoring found high public acceptance but low family consent rates, so the goal was to close that gap and continue improving donation rates in Australia.

The Veterans Health Administration:
Taking Home Telehealth Services to
Scale Nationally
Andrew Broderick
ABSTRACT: Since the 1990s, the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) has used infor-
mation and communications technologies to provide high-quality, coordinated, and com-
prehensive primary and specialist care services to its veteran population. Within the VHA,
the Office of Telehealth Services offers veterans a program called Care Coordination/
Home Telehealth (CCHT) to provide routine noninstitutional care and targeted care man-
agement and case management services to veterans with diabetes, congestive heart fail-
ure, hypertension, post-traumatic stress disorder, and other conditions. The program uses
remote monitoring devices in veterans’ homes to communicate health status and to cap-
ture and transmit biometric data that are monitored remotely by care coordinators. CCHT
has shown promising results: fewer bed days of care, reduced hospital admissions, and
high rates of patient satisfaction. This issue brief highlights factors critical to the VHA’s
success—like the organization’s leadership, culture, and existing information technology
infrastructure—as well as opportunities and challenges.
OVERVIEW
Since the 1990s, information and communications technologies—including tele-
health—have been at the core of the Veterans Health Administration’s (VHA’s)
successful system-level transformation toward providing continuous, coordinated,
and comprehensive primary and specialist care services. The VHA’s leadership
and culture; underlying health information technology infrastructure; and strong
commitment to standardized work processes, policies, and training have all con-
tributed to the home telehealth program’s success in meeting the chronic care
needs of a population of aging veterans and reducing their use of institutional
care and its associated costs. The home teleheath model also encourages patient
activation, self-management, and helps in the early detection of complications.
