Virtual health is supporting continuing efforts to further humanize health care by extending and expanding the concept of a patient-centric care delivery model into one that is truly life-centric.
Virtual health uses telecommunication and networked technologies to connect clinicians with patients (and with other clinicians) to remotely deliver health care services and support well-being. For providers, committing to virtual health at a personal and organizational level affords ever-increasing opportunities to deliver the right care at the right time in the right place, in a connected and coordinated manner.
By strengthening and facilitating a therapeutic alliance between clinicians and patients, virtual health is an important step on our continuous journey to humanize health care. It works within and around a patient’s life, as opposed to their sickness, to deliver care when, where, and how they need and want it. Also, virtual health works its way into consumers’ daily routines by being embedded in electronic devices associated with living life (e.g., smartphones and personal computers) more so than caring for sickness.
The healthcare industry is primed for expanded adoption of virtual health; a 2016 report estimated that the US virtual health market will reach $3.5 billion in revenues by 2022. Several factors are elevating stakeholder interest, including expected physician shortages, continued growth in digital technologies, changing reimbursement models, increasing consumer demand, and the evolving regulatory landscape. One game-changer: Today, nine in 10 American adults use the internet, giving clinicians the capability and flexibility to communicate with and serve health care consumers via the web.

Healthcare Delivery Reimagined: Patient Flow and Care Coordination AnalyticsAdrish Sannyasi
Come to learn how Splunk’s data analytics platform could be utilized to solve many high impact business problems in healthcare delivery systems to reduce cost, improve patient outcome and safety, and enhance care coordination experience. Analyze observed behavior from healthcare event data and metadata to discover patterns, monitor compliance, and optimize the workflow. Furthermore 80% of healthcare data is unstructured (clinical free text and documentation), or semi-structured and many new data sources are such as tele health, mobile health, sensors, and devices are getting integrated in many healthcare systems specifically in the area of chronic disease management. So, one need analytics software that can harvest, interpret, enrich, normalize, and model diverse structured and unstructured data and analytics approaches that embrace the “data turmoil” by relying less on standardized data items and more on the capability to process data in any format.

How Northwestern Medicine is Leveraging Epic to Enable Value-Based CarePerficient, Inc.
Value-based care and payment reform are prompting hospitals and healthcare providers to more closely manage population health. Hospitals and health systems rely on technology and data to outline the characteristics of their population and identify high-risk patients in order to manage chronic diseases and deliver enhanced preventative care.
Our webinar covered how Cadence Health, now part of Northwestern Medicine, is leveraging the native capabilities of Epic to manage their population health initiatives and value-based care relationships across the continuum of care.
Our speakers:
-Analyzed how Epic’s Healthy Planet and Cogito platforms can be used to manage value-based care initiatives.
-Examined the three steps for effective population health management: Collect data, analyze data and engage with patients.
-Covered how access to analytics allows physicians at Northwestern Medicine to deliver enhanced preventive care and better manage chronic diseases.
-Discussed Northwestern Medicine’s strategy to integrate data from Epic and other data sources.
You are required to submit a one page covering letter, composed of a short statement (max 300 words per question) in response to the two targeted questions.

“Qlik has significantly enabled our daily operations across all our services and has
profoundly transformed the way we use information to drive and support our
decision-making. The ease of access, exceptional data visualisations and near
real-time data loads, coupled with the intuitive nature of the Qlik platform, means
we have now equipped our staff with the right data tool to achieve our exceptional

– Dr Teresa Anderson, Chief Executive, Sydney Local Health District
Overview
Sydney Local Health District is a leader in
healthcare, home to world renowned
hospitals Royal Prince Alfred and Concord
Repatriation General, as well as Sydney
Dental, Balmain and Canterbury Hospitals.
The District hosts world-leading
biomedical, clinical, health services and
public health research, and has many
leading clinicians, researchers, research
institutes and research centres contributing
to the translation of research into
innovative, evidence-based practice. Their
vision is to achieve excellence in
healthcare for all across Aged Chronic
Care and Rehabilitation, Cancer Services,
Cardiovascular, Critical Care, Gastro and
Liver, Medical Imaging, Neurosciences,
Bone and Joint, Plastics and Trauma
Surgery and Women’s Health,
Neonatology and Paediatrics. Sydney is
one of the best performing health districts
in NSW.
With the Health Reforms of 2011, “our
Performance Unit needed to ensure
efficient and accurate ways to monitor the
activity across our services,” said Mauricio
Olivera, Manager Health Systems Data
and Development.
“We had various methods of reporting and
analysing health data, but needed a platform
to pull it together to help engage the
clinicians and managers. Our organisation
craved more information but also needed a
central intuitive mechanism to house that
information and make it available to
everyone to make smarter, faster decisions.”
In order to turn its data into meaningful
insights, the District implemented the
QlikView user-driven platform across the
entire organisation. “It was quite
revolutionary,” said Dr Tim Sinclair, General
Manager Concord Repatriation General
Hospital. “It gave power back to the business
by allowing staff across all levels of the
organisation ability to discover things about
their work in a timely, accurate, and
importantly, governed way.”
Qlik highlighted the need to improve the
District’s data systems & processes and
visualise the data to give all users the whole
story in their data.
