The Need to Embrace Profit Cycle Management in Healthcare - WhitepaperGE Healthcare - IT
Executive Overview
Healthcare organizations have been operating under a fee-for-service
model for many years. As such, financial leaders have become well
versed in implementing revenue cycle management systems and
processes that primarily focus on the money that comes into an
organization. Today, a new need is emerging. Healthcare reform
and other system changes are moving the industry toward hybrid
payment models such as bundled payments, shared savings, and
capitation. To thrive in this new environment, financial leaders need
to move toward profit cycle management – an emerging model
that matches the revenues from new payment models with an
improved understanding of the true costs to deliver patient care.
The result: Positive financial performance – even in the face of
declining payments – that can be reinvested in the mission to
provide better care.
The foundation of any business or household is profit, defined as
revenue net of expenses (and applicable as such even to not-for-profit
organizations). Regardless of whether you are start-up, a Fortune 500
company, or a family of four, you need to ensure that you are bringing
in more money than you are spending. In many businesses, the
formula to determine your “profitability” is fairly straightforward.
In healthcare, however, the situation is significantly more complex,
as existing and new payment models make it difficult to determine
exactly how much revenue is going to come in the door. On the cost
side, the move to accountable care and value-based payment has
shifted the management of risk and cost onto the providers and
delivery networks, yet most providers lack the tools that would
provide a detailed understanding of the costs required to deliver
quality care, especially when that care is delivered in multiple
locations. A new model of software tools is required – representing
the next generation of revenue cycle management tools and an
emerging class of healthcare cost accounting tools. The end goal?
A solution for profit cycle management that will help organizations
generate a positive financial performance and can be reinvested
in the mission to provide better care.
This change will not happen overnight. Rather, it will be an evolution
over the next five years, as integrated delivery networks update
their revenue cycle solutions to accommodate the new payment
models, and as they deploy new activity-based costing solutions.

When establishing the relationship between an external service provider (outsourcer) and customer, why do we document a whole operating model spanning both organisations? The whole point of outsourcing is that the supplier should be a black box, with inputs, outputs and performance requirements. What we need to define is the interface between the two entities, to ensure the operating models of each one mesh properly together: the Engagement Model.
This is more efficient: we don't redundantly document processes which already exist, and are documented elsewhere. It is more effective: we focus on the gaps, specifying the requirements for change in each organisation in order to connect their operating models.
This is pioneering stuff: there is very little published on what an engagement model should look like or how to develop and use it. Rob has built them: this presentation looks at a format, the content, and its uses

Physician
Introduction
A healthcare system should be well organized and should consist of trained personnel who mainly work with a company or an organization. Physicians, nurses, doctors, pharmacists are some of the examples of health care providers. This is a system that provides professional services to patients that are in high need of treatment as inpatients who are treated generally as outpatients. I decided to select physicians as health care providers and also as medical practitioners since they are always in demand in the medical field, day after another. This is a professional medical practitioner or by simple terms, a doctor who has completed highly advanced training in providing a range of mostly non-surgical health care to patients. A physician should have adverse knowledge in a medical specialty. The main concern is to maintain, restore, and promote health via the study, treatment, and diagnosis of a disease of patients to ensure their wellbeing.
Direct Impact of a Physician
Most companies direct the efforts of their marketing towards physicians to the consumers who are their patients; the shots are put in the physicians through the sale of drugs and also by advertising in most of the medical journals. Most of the largest chunk is put in place towards the detailing of marketing expenditure through advertisement. Some direct adverse impacts towards physicians are the misleading claims, indications that are unapproved and also overstated clinical issues. It has led to patients heading to physicians on a matter regarding well preventive healthcare (Machanda, 2005) since most drug adverts have left patients having an excellent aid of discussions with their physicians regarding treatment through which only safe drugs are allowed.
Physicians and their patients have put into caution through dealing with advertisement of drugs as they use forums which are web-based for their advertisements as they have a literature of promotion on their background which makes them be excluded in the blacklist by companies and by the agency of the regulatory. The detailing through rifeness over the drugs life has been adopted as an explanation of better effectiveness and efficiency of physician firms and improvement of patient’s health. As an industry, it plays a vital role in the economy of the world and also promoting the welfare of the consumers who are the citizens of the nation towards the healthcare industry.
Strategy for a Physician
Data integrity is a critical strategy that physicians ought to adopt for the statistical review and pattern utilization as a technological step in the medical field, this will help in recoding the patients ...
PHM is a systematic way of gathering, analysing and managing at-risk patients’ data through tools such as Utilization Management, Case Management, Disease Management, Portals etc.
Healthcare organizations need to have technological capabilities within their care delivery processes to effectively use data to manage the cost and quality of care. To pursue more aggressive risk-based reimbursement models, these capabilities need to be expanded strategically and proportionately.

The cost of healthcare and the associated dollar signs connected to it has kept a certain number of patients away from seeing a doctor when needed. The creation of Managed Care Organizations exists to deal with the exorbitant prices associated with seeing a healthcare provider and actually decreasing costs while increasing the level of care (Nikitas et al, 2020). The common thread is the network of providers that exists within each network that agrees to provide care for the policy holders for an agreed price. Among the Managed Care Organizations are three plans known as Health Maintenance Organization (HMO’s), Preferred Provider Organization(PPO’s), and Point-Of-Service Plan (POS). The structure of HMO’s exists as a network of hospitals, doctors and providers that usually only pay for care in the network visits. These have lower premiums the insured must use a provider within the network that is their Primary Care Physician (PCP). In addition, referrals must be obtained from the PCPs for visits to specialists within the network (healthy.kaiserpermanente.org, 2022) Membership is generally required in the form of employment or one who lives in the area of coverage. With an associated higher cost is the PPO’s. They will allow for visits to in or out of network providers as well as cost of fee coverage for visiting those out of network providers, generally covered by the increased monthly premiums and out of pocket costs (healthy.kaiserpermanente.org, 2022). The third plan being mentioned here is the Point-Of-Service Plan (POS). This is considered a hybrid of plans which allows for the insured to make decisions to see who they want as a provider without first obtaining prior approval. With regard to a plan that works best for the consumer, the HMO plan is one where the nurse within the system is most connected to the providers and the case files allowing for a seamless connection with provider to facility. The other two plans have steps between each provider and information can be lost in the shuffle. The position of nurses working within the healthcare system allows them an opportunity to help keep health costs down via means of self aud.

The Foundations of Success in Population Health ManagementHealth Catalyst
From hospital systems to large employers, organizations are increasingly taking on financial risk for the health of populations. Drivers of this trend include the update to the MSSP model, the recent CMS Primary Cares Initiative announcement, the increasing prevalence of the Medicare Advantage model, innovative partnerships in the self-insured employer space, and the proliferation of Medicaid ACOs. Yet while market pressures push organizations toward population risk, they don't necessarily help them succeed: most organizations are struggling to attain or sustain the dual imperatives of high-quality care and cost containment. A primary reason? Short-sighted and tactical approaches that don't provide the flexible data infrastructure and tools to adapt to emerging trends in population health—or to support short-term contractual requirements while building toward long-term success.
View this launch webinar to learn about Health Catalyst’s Population Health Foundations solution, a data and analytics-first starter set aimed at optimizing performance in value-based risk arrangements and providing the data ecosystem that will flex and adapt to complex needs of risk-bearing organizations. Solution services ensure that the strategic value of data is maximized to improve performance in risk contracts—and provide side-by-side subject matter expert partnership for establishing short- and long-term goals for population health management (PHM).
Built on Health Catalyst’s foundational technology and supported by the nationwide experience and perspective of its experts, the Population Health Foundations solution helps organizations leverage multiple data sources to understand their patient populations and create meaningful views of financial and clinical quality performance. As a starter set that organizations can build on based on their needs, the solution is designed to compensate for the known limitations of “black box” population health applications that fail to reveal the “why” of analytic insights and exacerbate the challenges of transforming quality, cost, and care. The Population Health Foundations solution delivers the essential analytic tools needed for success under value-based risk arrangements.
In these slides you can expect to:
- Review recent changes to the field of value-based care, and reactions and insights from the market
- Discover how the Population Health Foundations solution can act as a comprehensive, data-first analytics solution to support your population stratification and monitoring needs
- Understand how this solution functions as a foundational starter set for value-based care success, enabling clients to leverage all their data and other relevant population health tools

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

RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
