The document discusses overdiagnosis, which refers to identifying health problems that would never actually cause harm. This can occur through overdetection of issues in healthy people or overly broad disease definitions. Overdiagnosis diminishes healthcare quality, overburdens systems, and undermines population health. It can lead to overtreatment and overmedicalization. The document calls for moderation from providers, discussing overdiagnosis risks openly, and pressuring authorities to address overdiagnosis given its threats to universal healthcare sustainability.

Linking clinical workforce skill mix planning to health and health care dynamicsIme Asangansi, MD, PhD
Current health workforce planning methods are inadequate for the complexity of the task. Most approaches treat the workforce supply of individual health professions in isolation and avoid quantifying the impact of changes in skills mix, either planned or unplanned. The causes and consequences of task delegation and task substitution between or within health professions is particularly important in handling workforce shortages in developing countries and understanding and planning possible responses to both rapid catastrophic health demands and slower background trends in their social and political environment. As well as the contextual environment, interactions and delays in supplying and balancing health resources and configuring clinical services are required to address the geographic, profession-specific and quality imbalances. These supply side resources include knowledge and research, skills and attitudes of clinicians, buildings and equipment, medications and medical technologies, information and communications technologies and any other methods and models to improve the provision of clinical services. The interaction between demand
and supply could adjust for feedbacks of health services outcomes, policies and governance on population expectations, funding, political and social supports and explicitly link these to clinical workforce supply in a useful, rigorous and relevant tool.

Governments with universal healthcare systems are increasingly bemoaning the costs of their systems and the need to contain these costs if affordable healthcare services are to be sustained into the future. In a bid to reduce the costs of healthcare, politicians and bureaucrats have championed the need for reform. Although avoiding the language of rationing, the kinds of 'reforms' being championed (eg. greater government regulation of universal health coverage, reducing reimbursement for medical costs, cutting funding to public hospitals) seem however, to be more concerned with restricting universal healthcare coverage, rather than reforming it.
The rhetoric of healthcare reforms has also had a political ideological objective shifting the provision of and accountability for public healthcare services to private sector providers. This objective has been pursued despite experts warning that such a shift will ultimately lead (and in some cases has already led) to inequities and unjust disparities in access to healthcare and related health outcomes, especially in vulnerable populations who cannot afford private health insurance.
Australia has not been immune from ideologically driven machinations about the sustainability of its universal healthcare scheme, ie. Medicare. Despite health expenditure in Australia reportedly reaching a record low for the period 2012-2013, there has been a political campaign of spreading false and misleading information about Medicare's sustainability (Keast 2015).This misinformation has included 'blaming' vulnerable populations (eg. an ageing demographic, the 'undeserving poor') for their allegedly disproportionate over-utilisation of public healthcare services and the need to curb this costly 'wanton' demand. What has been overlooked in this situation, however, is that a key driver of the spiraling costs of healthcare is not the over-utilisation of services by people in need, but rather 'the use of wasteful tests and treatments' prescribed by doctors (Tilburt & Cassel, 2013) together with the rising costs of drugs (driven by the business behaviours of the pharmaceutical industry) and medical technology, particularly in hospitals. Also overlooked is the problem of language and the tendency to treat the terms 'healthcare', 'hospital care', and 'medical care' as being synonymous, when they are not. Failure to distinguish what each of these terms refers to unnecessarily muddles debate about what healthcare reforms are needed as well as where and how these should occur.
Question of nursing ethics
The ethics of healthcare rationing has been the subject of debate for decades. This debate has primarily rested on the issue of whether it is ever acceptable to ration healthcare and, if so, on what grounds. It has also prompted unresolved controversies about the interests of individuals versus the collective interests of society in accessing limited healthcare resources and how best to balance these competing inter.

Patients who have complex health needs require not only medical. But also social services and support from a variety of caregivers and providers. Facility managers who are part of care coordination could assist patient in receiving optimal care by addressing the challenges in coordinating care for these patients, and offer programmatic changes and policies that help deliver the best services to all patients.
Facility managers can come up with strategic plans based on prior data and make necessary changes based on preexisting conditions. “Patient- centered, comprehensive, coordinated, and accessible care that continuously improved through a systems-based approach to quality and safety” (AHRQ, 2012) are what’s needed to achieve the highest quality care possible in any health care facility.
Patient centered care can’t be achieved with providers only. It requires team work and collaboration among all stakeholders. To improve the quality and safety of patients, health care facility managers can work hand and hand with the coordinated team to provide a system based approach by drawing on decision-support tools, taking into account patient experience, and using population health management approach. Patient preference and needs on what aspects of care to be improved.

As a facility manager, and part of the care coordination team, I would look into models of care that would assist our situation. With the Affordable Care Act in place, there are accountable care organizations (ACOs), which provide models of care (“Promise,” 2013). There are many different definitions and perspectives on care coordination, but all lead to the goal of meeting patient needs and providing adequate healthcare (“Care,” 2014).
Care coordination is essential because each patient can interact with a variety of professionals each visit. For example, for a routine physical appointment, the patient could meet with the scheduling staff, medical assistants, nurses, doctors, pharmacists, and the billing staff. If each one of these member fails to coordinate as a whole, the patient could be harmed or neglected. As a care coordinator, I would be responsible for discussing an individualized care plan with each patient and ensuring that they understand their responsibilities. All barriers should be identified, such as financial, social (language), psychological, and anything that would effect the patient from following their correct plan of care and interacting with the staff (“Promise,” 2013). Another key point is to ensure the medical staff has reviewed the patient’s medical records and ensure that everyone is on the same page. These are just a few examples, because each case is different and each patient will have different needs. .

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) account for 71% of the deaths worldwideΔρ. Γιώργος K. Κασάπης
NCDs are not selective; they affect men and women in all countries and all socioeconomic classes, albeit with notable regional differences that influence intervention strategies and outcomes. Further amplifying the crisis, the high prevalence and chronic nature of NCDs have a direct impact on economies; the total global burden estimated to reach US$47 trillion between 2010 and 2030. Upjohn, a Pfizer division, shares insights on the major causes, trends and methods of intervention against NCDs.
Using technology-enabled social prescriptions to disrupt healthcareDr Sven Jungmann
As chronic diseases are increasingly straining healthcare systems, social factors are gaining importance. Since the birth of social medicine (19th century), we saw many failed attempts to beat the dominance of the biomedical model. Social prescriptions have come, raising hopes that non-biomedical solutions will improve outcomes and optimise resource use. Social Prescriptions connect citizens to support to address social determinants of health and encourage self-care for physical and mental health. Social prescriptions can make us healthier cheaper and with fewer side effects than most drugs. Social prescriptions can become a disruptive force as they can be personalised, improve lifestyle-related diseases, and support non-biomedical issues affected by social determinants of health.

Running head: PUBLIC HEALTH INITIATIVE 2
Public Health Initiative
Abraham Anderson
Walden University
Principles of economics for evaluating and assessing the need for the public health initiative
Public Health is a science that all in all expects to improve and lessen disparities in wellbeing. Public Health economics manages the basic leadership process for public health professionals in the usage of accessible resources while limiting opportunity cost (Edwards, Charles and Lloyd-Williams, 2013). The initiative will concentrate on making HIV testing a routine that will assist in decreasing and HIV. HIV represents human immunodeficiency virus. It debilitates an individual's immune system by crushing vital cells that battle infection and disease. The ascent in HIV is an expanding worry to public health making the need for consideration to decrease the potential health impacts it has on the human population. HIV is running fast in the population because of low salary, poor or no medicinal services, flooding rates of sexually transmitted infection's and people who have no idea of their HIV status.
A brief description of whether the initiative is a micro or macroeconomic program
The public health initiative to help lessen and counteract HIV is a macroeconomic program. The HIV issue is not just an individual concern yet additionally influences the country in general. When individuals are HIV, they are prone to various medical conditions like pneumonia, tuberculosis (TB), and other respiratory infections; lymphoma, cervical cancer, and other cancers; cardiovascular disease; and problems that affect the brain and central nervous system such as dementia, nerve damage, and memory problems, which have the potential of influencing the productivity of such people (Iribarren et al., 2018). At the point when a critical number of people are not productive because of HIV and these conditions, it turns into a risk to a nation's monetary development on the grounds that the country development is reliant on the profitability of its natives. At the end of 2015, an estimated 1.1 million persons aged 13 and older were living with HIV infection in the United States, including an estimated 162,500 (15%) persons whose infections had not been diagnosed. A ton of assets allotment is towards guaranteeing healthcare administrations are accessible to people in general to get to treatment for HIV and conditions that are appended to them.
A determination of whether the result of the initiative is a public or private good
The public health initiative in diminishing HIV is a public good. In economics, public goods are those which its utilization by one individual does not decrease the sum accessible for others to expend and are comprehensive to such an extent that nobody is barred from getting a charge out of the advantages related with them (Grossman, Pierskalla, & Dean, 2017). Public health initiatives are an element of different components both b.
Technology is disrupting healthcare just as it has in so many other areas of life. New players and
new approaches are proliferating but while the changes may seem dazzlingly diverse there is a single, underlying driving force. Digital transformation in healthcare has many elements: health data privacy, ethical AI, IOT solutions, many brought to the market by new disruptors. These are all valuable elements of transformation, but ultimately they are steering to a single goal; empathetic care of
the empowered patient. In this increasingly patient-centric future it is the empathetic care, not the technology itself, that will prove to be the outstanding feature. The market leaders in this landscape will be those who embrace and explore its possibilities.
Living in a hyper-connected world, patients have never been so well informed or had so much decision- making power, at least when it comes to chronic diseases. Less dependent on their doctors for advice, increasingly able and willing to take greater control of their own health, they feel empowered by the vast amount of health information available online, on apps, and by the array of health and fitness wearables.
Such consumer digital empowerment is pushing rapid change in healthcare provision. Industry leaders across providers, insurers, medical technology and the pharmaceuticals industry, need to re-imagine
the traditional spectrum of sales, marketing and commercialisation processes by developing empathetic engagement tools to accompany and support the patient on their personal journey. This digital transformation imperative becomes a huge challenge because of the complexity of the industry ecosystem and the varying models in APAC.
With widely varying reimbursement and access challenges across APAC countries, coupled with diverse social and cultural norms, it is important for pharma, insurance, and healthcare providers to work together with partners who have local, real-world expertise when it comes to understanding patient behaviours. Together those partnerships can deliver solutions that will impact patient lives positively. Across APAC the opportunities are considerable with a huge growing market for medication and care, but there are also significant cultural and financial hurdles to the uptake of treatments.

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!

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.

Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility

How to prevent

A Public Health issue:
Overdiagnosis…
…it diminishes the quality of
healthcare, over-stretches health
systems, steals resources from
those who are in the greatest need
of medical care and undermines
population health.
Overdiagnosis Conference regrets the fact that the draft Astana Declaration on Primary Health Care 2018 (From Alma-Ata
towards Universal Health Coverage and the Sustainable Development Goals) makes no reference to the public health and
clinical challenges of overdiagnosis and overtreatment.
These challenges include direct harms to patients and citizens, misallocation of resources, and, over the longer term, they
threaten the sustainability of universal healthcare systems and so undermine global health.
Sustainable health systems must explicitly manage the twin problems of underuse and overuse
What are we talking about?
OVERDIAGNOSIS means transforming people into patients unnecessarily (i.e. without clear benefit, and with potential for
damage) by identifying problems that were never going to cause harm, or by medicalising ordinary life experiences.
2. What are we talking about it?
! OVERDIAGNOSIS means transforming people into
patients unnecessarily (i.e. without clear benefit, and
with potential for damage) by identifying problems
that were never going to cause harm, or by
medicalising ordinary life experiences.
! It has two major causes:
! Overdetection: to identification of pathologies in healthy
people that would never cause patient-relevant disease
! Overdefinition of disease:
! Lowering the threshold for a risk factor without evidence that
doing so helps people feel better or live longer.
! Expanding disease definitions to include patients with
ambiguous or very mild problems that might be better tackled
outside the healthcare system.
3. A Public Health issue:
Overdiagnosis…
! …has an immense impact: it diminishes the quality of
healthcare, over-stretches health systems, consume
resources and undermines population health.
! …is a public health matter: it does harm to healthy
individuals and steel resources from those who are in the
greatest needs of medical care.
! … can lead to over-prescription and over-medicalization
contributing to the proliferation of antimicrobial
resistance.

5. How to prevent
Overdiagnosis and
Overtreatment?
! Demand balance, evidence-informed from providers and
authorities in relation to screening.
! Take the initiative to discuss the potential for
Overdiagnosis in different settings (colleagues,
professionals organisations, lay people,health
authorities,patients and citizens).
! Demand that authorities and funders put Overdiagnosis
on the public agenda and support research and
dissemination of information about this.
! Strive to adhere to guidelines and recommendations that
aim at reducing unnecessary healthcare, when such
recommendations exists.
! Generally support a professional attitude of moderation
among colleagues and students.
