Personal medical devices track an ever increasing amount of patient information away from the hospital. Coupled with quantitative self devices such as fitness trackers or calories counters, provide valuable information as the condition of a patient. Digital Health is growing a new realm of opportunities for biospace professionals. Yet challenges exist. Medical information software are archaic and siloed. Medical system is slow to adopt.

Bundled Payments in Healthcare – The Next Generation LIVE WebcastThomas LaPointe
A bundled payment is a single re-imbursement to a healthcare provider for all clinical services related to a single instance of medical care and away from fees-for-service.
Bundling of payments to healthcare providers will be used more frequently to reduce the cost of healthcare in the United States. Theoretically, bundled payment schemes will improve the quality of care, reduce un-necessary care, and reduce variation in cost among payers. However, research results are varied. Pilot projects such as Prometheus have been slow to develop because of the difficulty of agreeing upon which services can be bundled.
Provisions for bundled payments are included in both the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) and the Affordable Health Care for America Act (AHCAA). The PPACA bill established a national Medicare program in 2013. The AHCAA bill requires reform of Medicare payments for post-acute services, including the bundled payments.
Healthcare legal counsel face a number of legal and regulatory issues in structuring bundled and gain-sharing payment systems. The legal challenges arise from insurance, state laws, provider relationships, and fair market value dis-agreements. In the past, these arrangements were found potentially to violate the Anti-Kickback statute and Civil Monetary Penalties Act.
Our panel of skilled practitioners will review bundled payment schemes and discuss the advantages and disadvantages of the schemes. The panel will discuss operational and regulatory concerns for healthcare providers, critical provision documentation, the effects of healthcare reform and other recent legislative, regulatory, and enforcement activities. Also addressed is gain-sharing.
Key Topics include:
Public and Private Bundled Payment Initiatives & Gain-sharing Arrangements
Bundled Payments Programs and Current CMS initiatives
Implementation and Operational Challenges
Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs) and Bundled Payments
Medicare Bundled Payments for Care Improvement (BPCI) Initiative
Bundled Payment Transparency and Risk Arrangements
Bundled Payment Documentation, Data Analysis, & Reporting

In this webinar, Yvonne Chase of Mayo Clinic shares strategies to improve patient experience across the continuum of care - from pre-service to post-servcie activities. This presentation shares tools and processes used to streamline patient access, coordinate patient care and conduct patient follow-up post discharge - all while monitoring patient interactions to ensure clear and accurate communication from the first point of contact to the last.
The Formula for Optimizing the Value-Based Healthcare EquationHealth Catalyst
Two variables are required in the value-based healthcare equation if it is to add up to a profitable contract. One variable, optimizing the care for the patient population, is commonly included and is a focus for most healthcare systems involved in managing population health. However, a second variable, getting the right dollars in order to care for that population, is often overlooked. And yet this variable is easier to attain. It’s a matter of appropriately assessing the risk of the population by addressing inaccurate diagnoses coding. Here, we offer four methods for solving this variable: identifying high-risk gaps over time, persistent diagnosis tracking, identifying code adequacy, and identifying likely diagnoses.
Linking Clinical And Financial Data: The Key To Real Quality And Cost OutHealth Catalyst
Since accountable care took the healthcare industry by a storm in 2010, health systems have had to move from their predictable revenue streams based on volume to a model that includes quality measures. While the switch will ultimately improve both quality and cost outcomes, health systems now need the capability of tracking and analyzing the data from both clinical and financial systems. A late-binding enterprise data warehouse provides the flexible architecture that makes it possible to liberate both kinds of data to link it together to provide a full picture of trends and opportunities.

Learn key best practices in patient safety and quality including: patient safety as a team sport, the added challenges of healthcare being the most complex, adaptive system, and how culture, analytics, and content contribute to improve outcomes and lower costs.
Predictive Risk Stratification: Using Analytics to Empower Change with Action...Health Catalyst
Effective population health initiatives are challenging to implement for a variety of reasons. Care teams are already overburdened, and healthcare data is challenging to aggregate and analyze. These factors make it difficult to accurately identify patients who are high-risk or have rising risk for poor outcomes and provide appropriate intervention. To manage patient populations effectively and efficiently, healthcare organizations must be able to automate predictive risk stratification based on claims data, clinical data, and social determinants of health. When care teams know which patients need the most help, which patients have rising risk, and which patients are healthy, they can focus their valuable time where it’s needed most. In this webinar, Dr. Welch shares best practice strategies for utilizing analytics that empower change with actionable workflows, like patient engagement, to ensure that clinically integrated entities can manage high-risk populations appropriately, while also caring for those with rising risk, and engaging with healthy populations mapped to the right targeted interventions.

Chronic Care Management (CCM): Understand how to capture incremental revenueDiagnotes, Inc.
By now you’ve likely heard that qualifying physicians can receive approximately $42/patient/month from CMS for non-face-to-face care management of patients with two or more chronic conditions. And, in many cases, with the right tracking and reporting, you may be able to capture this revenue for work your team is already doing. In just 30 minutes, you will understand the chronic care management program requirements and see how easy it is to capture and report qualifying activities.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
