Patient Engagement has long been a buzzword for clinicians and health care organizations — however true engagement strategies and patient-centered care designs have fallen flat for many organizations or become simply a theoretical vision. In order to meet Meaningful Use standards and most importantly improve clinical outcomes for patients, providers must actually engage and incorporate patients into the equation for better health outcomes.
Join us at the World Congress Patient Engagement Summit as we leave behind theory and bring about actionable change with actionable solutions to engage patients and move the needle on clinical outcomes and community health. Collaborate with multiple stakeholders and learn how some of the nation’s most innovation hospitals and health systems are engaging the most complex and vulnerable patient populations through communication strategies, community involvement, and technology.

Maxime Lê is a graduate of health sciences from the University of Ottawa that has worn many hats for many roles. Chief among them is being a patient advisor for The Ottawa Hospital. Having frequently been a patient and having a passion for health and healthcare, he decided to get involved at The Ottawa Hospital to help improve care, research and advocate for patients. Maxime, while sharing his hands-on experience and insights, answered the questions that healthcare providers, researchers, or prospective patient advisors may have, such as: ''What does it mean to be a patient advisor?'', ''Why is it important?'', and ''What impact does it have?''.
The webinar was followed by an interactive question and answer session.
Using the IAP2 framework is a great place to start when thinking about partnering with consumers. This slide-deck touches on consumer participation, accreditation standards and case studies in participation.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IN HEALTHCARE.pdfAnujkumaranit
Artificial intelligence (AI) refers to the simulation of human intelligence processes by machines, especially computer systems. It encompasses tasks such as learning, reasoning, problem-solving, perception, and language understanding. AI technologies are revolutionizing various fields, from healthcare to finance, by enabling machines to perform tasks that typically require human intelligence.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Dear Colleague,
Patient Engagement has long been a buzzword for clinicians and health care
organizations. However, true engagement strategies and patient-centered care
designs have fallen flat for many organizations or become simply a theoretical
vision. In order to meet Meaningful Use standards, and most importantly
improve clinical outcomes for patients, providers must actually engage and
incorporate patients into the equation for better health outcomes.
Join me at The World Congress Patient Engagement Summit as we leave
behind theory and bring about actionable change with actionable solutions that
engage patients and move the needle on clinical outcomes, chronic disease
management, and community health. Learn how some of the nation’s most
innovative hospitals and health systems are engaging the most complex and
vulnerable patient populations through communication strategies, community
involvement, and technology.
Collaborate with multiple stakeholders — from hospitals and health systems,
health plans, as well as patients — on some of the most important and
innovative engagement techniques being used today including: redesigning care,
improving patient experience, participating in shared decision making, utilizing
patient advisory boards, advancing connected care, making culture changes,
and revolutionizing patient portals.
I look forward to seeing you on September 8-9 in Boston as we take the next
steps in patient engagement by connecting health care provider organizations
and sharing solutions to best engage and meet the needs of the patient.
Sincerely,
Patricia Rullo

WORKSHOP A:
Reduce Readmissions and
Increase Adherence Using
Shared Decision Making Strategies
To provide holistic and patient-centered care, and truly create an
environment to encourage patient engagement, providers must transform
their care delivery models to incorporate patient perspectives, priorities, and
realities into the care process. In this practical “how to” workshop learn the
fundamentals for creating a shared-decision based care model.
• Train providers to communicate with patients in a simple and welcoming
way to encourage questions and make a shift in the traditional care

are candidly communicating with patients to ensure care plans are
realistic — Finances, medication, quality of life, goals, and schedules
• Discuss ways to include patient perspectives into care treatment plans
• Acknowledge the challenges associated with creating a cultural shift
with established providers
• Examine the recent physician communication campaign, the Adopt One!
Challenge, and learn how this first-of-its-kind communication boot camp
impacted providers
