ASCP Commends CMS Decision on Medicare's Six Protected ClassesTravis Leonardi
The American Society of Consultant Pharmacists (ASCP) commended the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services' (CMS) decision not to revise Medicare's Six Protected Classes policy. The policy ensures that Medicare patients can access needed treatments. ASCP joined over 20 patient advocacy organizations in advocating for this position. However, ASCP was disappointed that CMS did not reform direct and indirect remuneration fees, which can still unfairly increase medication costs for seniors through a loophole.

Coding of activities of daily living (ADLs) on the MDS is complex and often misunderstood by those engaged in completing the assessment. In addition to affecting care, public information and survey, this area of the MDS has a tremendous financial impact. During this session, the speaker will define the late loss ADLs and provide insights aimed at helping facility staff document resident status accurately. Calculating the ADL score for the RUG-IV system will be reviewed and implications of inappropriate coding will be demonstrated. Using dollar-impact case studies, the attendee will learn why this section is critical for the facility’s financial success.
The document discusses a presentation given by The HIT Community on workflow reengineering for electronic health record (EHR) implementations.

2018 ODH Health Plan Survey - Are Health Plans Ready for Innovation?ODH, Inc.
Shifting health plan landscape brings more competition focused on performance and value. Health care payers of all kinds must innovate, manage big data and harness new technology to deliver better performance at lower costs. Early results from this Survey of 180 commercial and Medicaid health plans feature population health management challenges and solutions, the use of data aggregation as a business strategy, resources to address complex populations, and the role of technology for health plans in the shift to value-based care.
Skilled Nursing Facilities have seen a significant increase in Medicare Part A and Part B Therapy denials. The goal of medical review is to determine whether the services are reasonable and necessary, delivered in the appropriate setting, and coded correctly, based on appropriate documentation. The speaker will begin this seminar by discussing recent national trends in Medical Review, Reasons for increased review and the various Medical Review programs. The speaker will present specific denial trends with examples of denial statements. The presentation will culminate in a review of the keys to responding to a medical record request and appeal tips and strategies.
16% of respondents to a survey on top trends were from imaging centers. 22% of imaging centers saw revenue gains in 2010. Business intelligence tools are a high priority on imaging centers' IT wish lists.
Next phr million hearts response business plan v1Mir Hajmiragha
NextPHR is a social health platform focused on empowering patients through access to their health information and online support communities. They ran a successful hypertension management pilot where 33% of participants improved their blood pressure readings. For the Million Hearts initiative, NextPHR proposes using their platform to increase awareness, education, and management of cardiovascular risk factors through online tools and resources. Their business model includes licensing fees, sponsorships, and analytics revenue sharing with partners.
This document discusses the rise of urgent care and primary care physician (PCP) services, and the hidden battle for control occurring in this market. It notes that payers are increasingly focused on identifying and reducing "low-value care" that does not improve outcomes, in order to lower costs. Using government benchmark data and analytics tools, payers and risk-bearing organizations aim to determine which providers offer high or low value care, and establish networks focused on high-value providers. Reducing low-value services can significantly reduce total medical spending.

Using Advanced Analytics for Value-based Healthcare DeliveryMichael Joseph
Promoting Value-based Healthcare Delivery
The fundamental principles of the Affordable Care Act recognize that the volume-based, fee-for-service payment model is unsustainable and that a value-based healthcare delivery system is essential. With the emergence of Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), providers are incentivized to implement payment reforms and participate in shared savings programs that seek to balance quality of care, access to care and cost of care.
Our healthcare analytics payment model uses predictive analytics to assist ACOs in patient attribution, budget development, bench-marking and performance monitoring to maximize incentives through shared savings and quality improvements.
This document describes a personal cholesterol management system called pCMS 1.x. It aims to help the 105 million Americans struggling with high cholesterol lower their levels through diet and exercise tracking rather than expensive drugs. The system uses predictive analytics and data visualization of biometrics from health insurers like Cigna to engage users. It has the potential to save billions annually for insurers and patients by providing preventative care through a mobile app. Future versions may expand to other health conditions. The document outlines the technologies used and next steps of partnering with insurers nationally.

Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
