THE WAY INSURANCE AGENCIES JUDGE RISKS & FIX PREMIUM ON HEALTH INSURANCE POLICYMandana Sharma
The premium of health insurance policies is considered as per the assured sum and investment of the insured but there are many things to look for before considering premiums.
Liability cover can be complex and it is vital that you get it right, for if there are any loopholes, your nursery will not be properly protected in the case of what could turn out to be a tragic accident

If you want to be a better leader, you should read more -- either fiction or non-fiction. This slide presents the lessons from one book that I read many years ago. The lessons have stuck with me.
Teaching the history of pharmacy to young people is a challenge but it can be done if delivered in an interesting and engaging way. These slides summarize what I share with my students.
Much of our ideas about motivating others are inconsistent with what science says. This presentation describes three commonly used methods to motivate. Only one is under the control of all pharmacists and pharmacy personnel.
Whenever people work together on things of importance, there will be disagreements and conflict. Understanding conflicts and how to work them out is a key responsibility of professionals and leaders. When handled well, conflicts can improve relationships, solve difficult problems, and influence change in organizations.
The following slides describe how to have trusting professional relationships. Mutual trust between partners is fundamental to commitment and engagement.
The following slides describe how pharmacists can have better professional relationships which are fundamental to pharmacy practice. Effective professional relationships are vital in leading others, teaching and coaching performance, negotiating win-win solutions, and resolving conflict in pharmacy organizations. Good professional relationships help improve communications, make work more enjoyable, and increase opportunities for success.
These slides cover the concepts of situational leadership -- a group of theories that highlight the role of context in effective leadership. The ability to read a situation and apply the right leadership style is critical for successful leadership.
Ethical leadership can be defined as the process through leaders attempt to accomplish morally defensible goals in a morally defensible manner. These slides review what it means to be an ethical leader and the process for being one.
Pharmacists can learn from the accumulated wisdom of the leadership literature to be better leaders. These slides summarize the major ideas covered in Chapter 2 of "Leadership for Pharmacists". It provides a brief review of leadership theories and what pharmacists can learn from them.
This is an updated slide deck discussing what students should consider when starting a career in community pharmacy practice. There really are a lot of opportunities if pharmacists are willing to do what it takes to succeed.
This chapter discusses the topic of motivation and the science behind it. It differentiates motivation from the concepts of morale and performance. It examines key motivation theories and what they say about what drives human behavior. The chapter identifies important lessons for pharmacists from each theory. Throughout, it describes misconceptions relating to things that motivate us and others and how misconceptions can lead to unintended behavioral consequences.
These slides accompany Chapter 7 from Leadership for Pharmacists. It lays out different types of problems faced by pharmacists and issues to consider. It identifies some cognitive biases and bad decision-making processes that can prevent good solutions. A systems approach using a step-by-step process for making good decisions is presented.
This is a basic introduction to leadership from Chapter One from Leadership for Pharmacists. It explains why pharmacists should learn about leadership by using statements from professional organizations and the pharmacy literature. Leadership and management are defined and contrasted. The role of power in leading change is discussed along with a discussion that contrasts how leaders and managers use power differently. The chapter ends by providing a short summary of what is known about leadership.
This presents the resource-based theory of competitive advantage as a framework for describing, understanding, and predicting the adoption and dissemination pharmacy service innovations into routine practice. The theory argues that sustainability of any business innovation (e.g., pharmacy service) is based upon (1) the internal resources of the firm offering it, (2) the firm’s capabilities in using those resources, (3) the competitive advantage to the firm of its resources and capabilities, (4) the attractiveness of the market in which it competes, and (5) the innovation’s contribution to financial performance of the firm.
This is a pitch deck template for pharmacy business models. It is for pharmacy projects that are in the advanced stages of planning. A previous 9 slide pitch deck without financials is available for early stage strategic planning.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Title: Sense of Smell
Presenter: Dr. Faiza, Assistant Professor of Physiology
Qualifications:
MBBS (Best Graduate, AIMC Lahore)
FCPS Physiology
ICMT, CHPE, DHPE (STMU)
MPH (GC University, Faisalabad)
MBA (Virtual University of Pakistan)
Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

CDSCO and Phamacovigilance {Regulatory body in India}NEHA GUPTA
The Central Drugs Standard Control Organization (CDSCO) is India's national regulatory body for pharmaceuticals and medical devices. Operating under the Directorate General of Health Services, Ministry of Health & Family Welfare, Government of India, the CDSCO is responsible for approving new drugs, conducting clinical trials, setting standards for drugs, controlling the quality of imported drugs, and coordinating the activities of State Drug Control Organizations by providing expert advice.
Pharmacovigilance, on the other hand, is the science and activities related to the detection, assessment, understanding, and prevention of adverse effects or any other drug-related problems. The primary aim of pharmacovigilance is to ensure the safety and efficacy of medicines, thereby protecting public health.
In India, pharmacovigilance activities are monitored by the Pharmacovigilance Programme of India (PvPI), which works closely with CDSCO to collect, analyze, and act upon data regarding adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Together, they play a critical role in ensuring that the benefits of drugs outweigh their risks, maintaining high standards of patient safety, and promoting the rational use of medicines.
Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).

36. A HAZARD BECOMES “INSURABLE”
WHEN THE FOLLOWING SIX
ELEMENTS ARE PRESENT
Chapter 14 Private Health Insurance from Introduction to health care delivery: a primer for
pharmacists By Robert L. McCarthy, Kenneth W. Schafermeyer Pgs 381-382; 2007.
37. 1. THE PROBABILITY OF A PERIL
IN A POPULATION MUST BE
ACCURATELY CALCULATED
FOR EXAMPLE: THE PERIL OF A HEART ATTACK IN
A 50 YEAR OLD HISPANIC MALE IN THE WESTERN
U.S CAN BE ESTIMATED WITH SOME PRECISION
38. THEREFORE, AN INSURANCE
COMPANY CAN CALCULATE THE
RISK TO INSURE INDIVIDUALS
AND WHAT TO CHARGE TO MAKE AN ACCEPTABLE
PROFIT
39. 2. THE PERIL IS UNPREDICTABLE
FOR ANY SINGLE INDIVIDUAL
ALTHOUGH WE MIGHT KNOW THAT RISK OF
HEART ATTACK FOR INDIVIDUALS,
WE CANNOT KNOW WHICH INDIVIDUALS WILL
SUFFER ONE OR WHEN
40. OTHERWISE, INSURERS CAN DROP
INSURANCE FOR THE INDIVIDUAL
BEFORE THE PERIL STRIKES
OR THE INDIVIDUAL CAN ADD INSURANCE WHEN
THE PERIL IS IMMINENT
48. PREMIUMS MUST BE LOW
ENOUGH TO ATTRACT
CUSTOMERS BUT HIGH ENOUGH
FOR A FAIR PROFIT TO INSURERS
49. PREMIUMS ARE KEPT LOW BY
REDUCING PAYOUTS FOR
EVENTS & INSURANCE
ADMINISTRATION COSTS
50.
51. 1. CAN THE PROBABILITY OF NEED
FOR PRESCIPTION DRUGS IN A
POPULATION BE ACCURATELY
CALCULATED?
YES!! EPIDEMIOLOGICAL STUDIES CAN IDENTIFY
HOW MANY INDIVIDUALS IN A POPULATION NEED
PRESCRIPTION DRUGS.
52. 2. IS THE NEED FOR PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS UNPREDICTABLE FOR ANY
SINGLE INDIVIDUAL?
YES!! ALTHOUGH WE MIGHT KNOW THE RISK
THAT SOME INDIVIDUALS WILL NEED DRUGS,
WE CANNOT KNOW EXACTLY WHICH
INDIVIDUALS OR WHEN
54. 4. DOES PRESCRIPTION DRUG
USE THREATEN THE FINANCIAL
HEALTH OF THE INSURED?
IN MANY CASES, YES!! THE DRUG
BILL FOR THE SERIOUSLY ILL CAN BE
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS A MONTH.
55. 5. CAN THE COST OF PRESCRIPTION
DRUGS BE SPREAD ACROSS LARGE
POPULATIONS?
YES!! PRESCRIPTION DRUG USE IS
WIDESPREAD, BUT RELATIVELY FEW PEOPLE
MAKE UP THE BULK OF DRUG COSTS IN A
YEAR.
56. 6. IS PRESCRIPTION DRUG
COVERAGE ECONOMICALLY
FEASIBLE?
YES!! USE OF TECHNOLOGY AND AUTOMATION
CAN ALLOW INSURERS TO OFFER COVERAGE
WITH REASONABLE PREMIUMS AND LOW
ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS
57. 6. IS PRESCRIPTION DRUG
COVERAGE ECONOMICALLY
FEASIBLE?
WHETHER INSURERS ACTUALLY OFFER COVERAGE
WITH REASONABLE PREMIUMS & LOW
ADMINISTRATIVE COSTS IS OPEN TO DEBATE
