The State of Consumer Healthcare: A Study of Patient ExperienceProphet
There is a vital change happening in healthcare: People are demanding to be treated as savvy consumers, who deserve choices, convenience and fair prices. The same revolution of consumerism that’s shaking up the way the world buys financial services, airline tickets and groceries is finally underway in healthcare. And as healthcare options multiply, this trend will only accelerate. Providers who are ready to respond by creating a strong patient experience are going to win, and those who aren’t will be left behind.
This presentation explains findings from the patient experience study which was conducted to understand the consumer healthcare experience by assessing the gap between patient and providers’ expectations and perceptions, and arm institutions with the ability to assess their own organization, define a successful strategy, and deliver on it.

Bookends of the Patient Experience: Improvement Strategies from Admission to ...TraceByTWSG
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.
Patient satisfaction is about the Total Quality of the Patient Encounter (TQE). TQE is the sum of Patient Experience (as defined by CMS) plus Patient Satisfaction as defined by all of the non CMS related touchpoints.
Workplace productivity is an estimate of how efficiently organizations utilize their resources to accomplish business objectives. Improving productivity is important because increasing it can increase revenue using the same or fewer resources.
There is no doubt patient experience is one of the most crucial factors in the Healthcare industry. Check out factors that influence patient satisfaction scores and how to use patient experience data more actionable.

The contact center is the first step in the ideal experience for patients and physicians. In this brief presentation, Gelb will illustrate best practices in contact centers created by national leaders in healthcare. We will examine the differences between functional needs (what must be done) and emotional needs (how patients and physicians feel about your contact center). How does your contact center rate on the 9 Dimensions of call center strategy? Does your contact center engage and enchant callers?
One of the largest challenges in the physician relations function is keeping up with physician relationship management. Some have turned to standard CRM/PRM programs with limited success. The key reason – current systems aren’t designed to accommodate the unique strategies required for outreach. Leveraging best practices in physician relationship management, we’ve designed Physician360. This white paper examines how this solution can address the most pressing needs of physician relations functions.

Beware of Benchmarks: Use of Survey Data in Determining FMVPYA, P.C.
PYA Principal Tynan Olechny and Consulting Manager Zach Doolin recently presented, “Beware of Benchmarks: Use of Survey Data in Determining FMV,” as part of NACVA’s Online Winter Summit.
Patient Satisfaction Surveys are one of the easiest ways for Community Health Centers to evaluate the quality of care being provided, as well as the needs of the patient population. The distribution of Patient Satisfaction Surveys provides a system for collecting and reporting data and can often be the driver of operational transformation. Faced with a lack of resources and low rates of survey completion, Community Health Centers may question how to maximize the value of implementing a process for collecting data. This webinar will address the following:
• Strategies for Developing Patient Satisfaction Surveys
• Strategies for Implementing Patient Satisfaction Surveys
• HRSA Requirements for Patient Satisfaction Surveys
• Best Practices on how to Use and Report Survey Results

The Accountable Care Act means more access to healthcare for more people. But to pay for that access it also means margins for healthcare companies are going to be squeezed. But this does not necessarily imply doom for healthcare companies. The law actually encourages healthcare businesses to build better business models – and is willing to pay for it. By retooling your market approach, and the operations that run your business, you can actually improve your margins and your customer’s happiness at the same time you are helping to create a better and more efficient healthcare ecosystem.

Transform Your Labor Cost Management Strategy: Introducing the Health Catalys...Health Catalyst
Labor costs encompass nearly 60 percent of the typical healthcare budget and are growing faster than healthcare systems can afford. COVID-19 responses only exacerbated this financial pressure. Controlling escalating labor costs means eliminating waste and using data to find where budgeted staffing hours exceed or fall short of patient needs. Most organizations have the wrong tools to understand labor demands and instead try to guess future patient volumes and staffing needs by using retrospective data that lacks timeliness.
The Health Catalyst PowerLabor application leverages augmented intelligence (AI)-powered forecasting capabilities to deliver accurate labor data to operational leaders. With timely workforce insight, health systems can close the gap between staff budgeting and future patient volumes, control labor expenses, and track progress toward budget and staffing targets.
Join John Hansmann, Senior Vice President of Strategic Consulting Operations at Health Catalyst, and Sean Latimer, Senior Director of Product Management at Health Catalyst, as they demonstrate how PowerLabor can help your organization increase productivity while ensuring resources for excellent patient care.
What You’ll Learn About PowerLabor:
• View Comprehensive Labor Data in One Place: Department and unit managers can analyze labor costs with an integrated view of all labor productivity data, including cost and hours, by system, location, department, team, and job role in one location.
• Proactively Schedule to Volume: With a complete view of categorized labor hours in relation to costs (e.g., contracts, premiums, overtime, and staffing mix), decision makers can easily identify labor trends, comparisons, and rollups across departments to accurately predict labor needs, plan for changes in staffing, and optimize staff to patient ratios.
• Drive Adoption with Expert Guidance: To maximize the PowerLabor application, Health Catalyst experts help categorize and refine data through an initial assessment and data integration from multiple data sources (e.g., EMR, billing, HR/payroll, time and attendance, and general ledger). Our implementation teams also provide train-the-trainer sessions to drive the most effective adoption.
In the world of healthcare, there are many aspects that come together and make healthcare organizations work. While the main focus is on providing quality healthcare services, other aspects, like employee satisfaction, equipment quality, healthcare revenue cycle management, and much more are also equally important to get the services going smoothly and ensure that the healthcare provider receives the payment for their services on time.

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!

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
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.

Tom Selleck Health: A Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Actor’s Wellness Journeygreendigital
Tom Selleck, an enduring figure in Hollywood. has captivated audiences for decades with his rugged charm, iconic moustache. and memorable roles in television and film. From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
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
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
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

Fiscal pressures, sweeping regulatory changes under the
Affordable Care Act, and an industry-wide shift to consumerism
(patient engagement) have given rise to a new health economy.
To succeed, healthcare organizations are trying to reinvent
themselves.
• Hospital Systems are entering the insurance business
• Practices are joining/selling to ACOs
• Practices are merging/selling to other practices
• Retailers are expanding their health offerings
Healthcare Orgs Rethink Their Roles
7. Nothing that we haven’t seen before. This is the
same trend most of us saw in the 90’s where
hospitals were purchasing practices and then
handed them back because they didn’t know how to
manage them.
It means we are continuing to build medical bridges
to nowhere, and focusing on insurance reform
instead of healthcare reform.
It means that the only real way to start laying the
foundation to really changing our healthcare is by
reinstating the sacred relationship of the providers
and their patients and transforming the way they
look at their business.
What Does This Really Mean?
8. The process by which patients become invested in
their own health. Providers with effective patient
engagement programs provide patients with the
information and tools needed to take control of
their care.
The challenges:
• Empowering the patient to access their data,
technology tools and resources to expect a
higher quality of care and patient experience,
and at a reasonable cost.
• Regaining control from insurers and policy
driven by our government.
Patients want value in healthcare like anything else
they buy.
What Is Patient Engagement?
11. VBP is a payment methodology that rewards quality of care
through payment incentives and transparency in healthcare.
Value can be broadly considered to be a function of quality,
efficiency, safety, and cost.
VBP stemmed from the Patient Protection and Affordable Care
Act (PPACA) of 2010.
VBP is believed to be a central feature in “assessing” payers
and consumers with providers in the healthcare delivery
system.
Providers will be held accountable for the quality and cost of
the health care services they provide by a system of rewards
and consequences.
Must meet pre-specified performance measures.
Value Based Purchasing
12. VBP is all about patient outcomes; health care status, patient experience
(satisfaction); and costs (direct, indirect) of services provided.

13. VBP implementation imposes significant operational
challenges. Measuring and monitoring quality may be
overwhelming for providers due to the volume and non-
standardization of measures.
Not all quality measures work for all specialties (case in
point: CQMs for Meaningful Use).
Quality improvement is all about process improvement
in your organization.
The quality of what you put into your system is the
quality that you will get out.
Challenges and Barriers
14. Compensation based on outcomes requires you to
report on your outcomes. Some models include:
• Care Management: Management of individual
patients by healthcare providers
• Population Health: Management of groups of similar
patients
• Quality: How you meet mandated measures
• Financial Performance: How you are managing and
reducing cost of care
• Operational (internal): Analyzing how you can better
and more cost-effectively deliver care
Reporting and Outcomes
15. Must be able to look at canned reports from your
PM and EHR systems at a minimum to analyze
where you are today.
• You cannot determine where you are going until you
know where you have been.
Benchmarking yourself to understand your gaps in
areas of:
• Revenue
• Operations – IT IS ALL ABOUT WORKFLOW &
PROCESS IMPROVEMENT
• Clinical Quality Measures
• Physician Performance
• Patient Satisfaction
Reporting and Outcomes (Cont.)
17. Leaders evaluate each aspect of their business to
move towards business health and take back
control.
Leaders identify ways to reduce waste and non-
labor expenses without compromising quality. It is
all about workflow!
Leaders have total control of all the data that
insurers, hospitals, and ACOs want.
Insurers, Hospitals & ACOs Don’t Have Control
of the Data.
You Do! Use it Effectively!
Lead or Be Led!
18. You are a consumer, too. How satisfied are you
with our healthcare delivery system? What is
your experience?
Leaders take back control of their business, by
managing staff, operations, and patient
experience. Leaders are accountable for their
own destiny.
Leaders embrace that their staff is their most
important asset. Leaders invest in their staff’s
skills and knowledge.
Leaders hold their staff accountable for their
performance.

19. Use Your Data to Improve
Business Outcomes and Patient Satisfaction
“In God we trust...and all others must bring data”
- William Edwards Deming
Opportunities
20. Workflow analysis is a process of analyzing steps of a
process, and assessing the value it delivers.
It provides a view of how your business is performing in
areas such as:
• Financial
• Operations
• Clinical
Careful evaluation of your “current” state will help you
identify bottlenecks and areas of improvement.
Then you or your team can re-design new methods in
areas that will drive a positive change for your practice.
EHR vendors do not do this for you!
Analyzing Your Workflow
21. Quality improvement is data-driven.
In order to assess opportunities to reduce cost through
operational efficiencies, you need to analyze the workflow
within your organization.
Without developing a plan and having a team approach
when assessing workflow, it is difficult to implement
improvements.
You have to evaluate the whole process.
Reports provide you with a broader scale of data to look at
the entire flow and to point out potential bottlenecks.
If your PM/EHR does not product these reports canned or
through an advanced reporting module, speak to your
vendor about creating one.
Basic Reporting – PM and EHR
22. Cash, Check, Credit Cards - Broken down by individual payments and
run on a daily and monthly basis to verify bank deposits.
Charge Edits - Verify all charges are posted and if not, why? Report
should show the schedule for the day, and who has or has not been
billed.
Financial Analysis - Reports that break down by insurance company
with aging categories showing total payments and write-offs. Report
should show what insurance companies are paying timely.
Write-Off Analysis – Total charges, total payments, total write-offs by
insurance company and why.
Procedure Analysis – Report by provider of procedure codes used,
charges, and payment averages for comparative analysis.
Patient Balances – Reports that outline outstanding patient balances
to determine what the cause is? Co-pay collection up front or lack of
insurance and demographic verification?
Billing Report Examples
23. Patient Flow Tracking – This report allows the
practice to analyze the average time patients are
spending in the waiting room, exam room with an
MA, or waiting for the doctor.
• Understanding bottlenecks and excessive wait
times can help pinpoint behavior and flow
modifications that need to be made.
• This allows for improvements in patient satisfaction,
seeing more patients with fewer cancellations.
• More patients means more revenue!
Operational Report Examples
24. Appointment Exceptions – This allows the practice
to analyze cancelled, rescheduled, or no-show
appointments for a selected time frame or by
patient.
• Determines repeat offenders that you may want to
avoid completely.
• Practices don’t like to “lose” a patient. You never
had them in the first place if they don’t show up, and
they cost you money.
• Having a policy around these issues is very
important. Set up your system to alert staff not to
schedule appointments with repeat offenders.
Operational Report Examples (Cont.)
25. Recalls – This report can be used to determine which recall
notices will be printed for a specified date range. It can be
used as a phone list to inform patients of recalls by
telephone.
Common recall examples are:
• Diabetic patients that have not had their HbA1c checked
recently, or have not been in during a specified timeframe to
ensure the maintenance of their levels and medication
• Male patients who have not had a colonoscopy documented
within the past five (5) years
Running recall or health maintenance reports on a patient
population with parameters for proactive care management,
promotes quality care, an increase in patient volume for
clinical visits, and enhanced revenue.
Clinical Report Examples
26. Vaccinations – This report should be analyzed against billing reports to
ensure that all vaccinations have been billed. This is a huge area for
revenue loss. If a provider doesn’t document appropriately, then the
billing department won’t know the charges are missing!
• Vaccinations are tracked in most EHR systems in the vaccination
module of what has been administered for a patient or all patients
given a particular type of vaccination.
Provider Performance – These reports are very specific to what you
want to see. Ask your vendor to work with you to create reports that will
help assess provider performance. What are your key performance
metrics (KPI)?
• Coding and documentation habits – HUGE REVENUE IMPACT
• Utilization (Are they late or on-time for their appointments?)
• Cost of care based on Dx and Reimbursement
• Monthly revenue generation
Clinical Report Examples (Cont.)
28. The keys to success are:
• Collaboration – patient centric care
• Business and clinical analytics (financial, clinical, and
operational data)
• Using your data to drive improvements and manage
your risk
• Negotiate better reimbursement based on YOUR
DATA
UNDERSTAND YOUR DATA TO MEET YOUR VISION
AND MISSION OF BUSINESS HEALTH AND
CLINICAL EXCELLENCE.
The Keys To Success
29. Complete patient

timely access to
the complete
patient’s history
from all venues
of care, from in-
home diagnostics
to acute care

Electronic Collaboration on The Rise
30. Electronic collaboration drives signification value:
• Accessing a complete view of your patients’ health
information regardless of treatment location
• Reduce phone calls, faxes, and operating costs
• Captures data crucial to care management, performance
metrics, and reporting
• Claims data does not provide actionable data at point of
care
• Will allow providers to manage healthcare costs and
quality more efficiently against CMS’ publicly reportable
data
• Improves patient satisfaction
Electronic Collaboration
31. Physicians have more control than they think.
Current state:
• Payers wield the information hammer – they have
more than you do, but they only have claims data
• How do you document what you deserve to get
paid for (claims plus pay for performance)?
• You want to improve the operations of your practice.
• How do you get at the root cause of problems?
• How do you monitor key performance metrics?
