The healthcare landscape is in great flux with unprecedented forces in consumer demands, regulatory impact, economic strain, and provider uncertainty. Add to this the PPACA law and we have the making of a new landscape, new delivery models, and possibly - optimistically - better health and health care for Americans.
The Wellness Consumer & Brands Winning CustomersNick Gaudiosi
What does the wellness consumer look like? How are they different than a traditional healthcare consumer? What brands are winning customers in the wellness economy? This piece looks to answer all of these questions and more..
A look at the top healthcare issues affecting healthcare providers and consumers in 2019 and beyond. Payment and practice patterns shifts are affecting when, where and how healthcare consumers are accessing and paying for care. Healthcare technology is fueling the change as providers struggle to keep pace and deliver high patient satisfaction and engagement. Consumer demands are growing as more of the cost burden is shifted to the employee as employer sponsored health plans see an unprecedented shift in the way they provide care for employees.

Nudging the Culture of Wellness: Evidence-Based Approachguest589257a
WEBINAR FROM
http://www.nationalwellness.org/index.php?id_tier=128&id_c=225
(Can listen to audio there)
Healthy work cultures are not "built" as much as "nudged" over time. Nudge means gradual, intentional, peer-to-peer positive interaction and encouragement. Recognized in the National Registry of Evidence-Based Programs and Practices (NREPP), "Team Awareness" (TA) has provided nudge training to over 10,000 workers in various industries. Join this session to learn how any culture of health effort must consider the work group, leadership, and social health.
We will explain how TA works, how to start using quick tools from TA, and three tenets of wellness cultures: (1) Costs are incurred if you only invest in individual health when the work culture is toxic; (2) Strong wellness program don't guarantee worker engagement; (3) The strongest workplace influence on employee health is his or her immediate work-group and supervisor.
This third tenet is a force-multiplier which you can jump-start by empowering work groups to know their health benefits, coping skills, tolerance levels for unhealthy practices, by reviewing basic listening skills, and through NUDGE: Notice who may need your encouragement; Understand your role; Decide if you should say something; if so, use GUIDELINES for communication, and then Encourage!
Following the webinar, participants will be able to:
describe the six modules of Team Awareness and why it has been so effective
use tools from the Team Awareness curriculum
understand the basic steps of nudging

Today's companies must begin to look at employee health, not as a cost, but an investment. Data show conclusively that the health status of a company's employees is directly correlated to the profitibility and competitiveness of the company. This is not an American challenge, but a global challenge and responsibility. This was a keynote address to a dozen major US corporations in May, 2008. I'm happy to discuss with anyone of interest.

2013-01 Retail Healthcare and Its Implications for the Future of Health Insur...imagine.GO
Consumer-directed healthcare empowers consumers by providing them with information about price and treatment options so that they can pursue cost-saving opportunities. As a result, a growing number of managed care organizations are adding retail health.
The healthcare delivery model is being transformed and each stakeholder has an integral part to play in its much needed success. Healthcare delivery organizations, payers, and employers have typically shouldered much of this responsibility, and now patients are being added to the mix as their consumer influence and purchasing power grows. Porter Research President Cynthia Porter will explore this evolution and the industry trends that have turned previously backseat patients into some of healthcare's most powerful drivers.

Shift in the Payer Movement in the Provider Space to Augment the Movement of Value Based Integrated Payments - The Evolution to Health Solutions presented by Jon Gavras, MD at the FLAACOs Fall 2014 Conference
Five years in, and the Affordable Care Act continues to command conversation in the benefits landscape. Industry players are still scrambling to implement new provisions, keep healthcare costs down, create infrastructure to support new reporting requirements, and develop new payer, provider and care delivery models.
This has, in turn pushed the respective hands of health plans, who have had to change their strategies to fit both the consumerization of insurance and the standards set forth under the ACA.
With end-users in the forefront, health plans must take the strategy implemented 15 years ago with the rise of the internet, and push the marketing and communication initiatives into overdrive to gain and retain customers.
Health plans are shifting their mentality and communication, ant the best of the best are putting time, money, and energy into literacy and new business initiatives.
To simplify, a health plan needs to put the consumer at the center of every decision it makes.
However, in order to plan, communicate, and effectively market to consumers, your health plan must know the consumer, the technology, and the future.
If you’re looking to grow your health plan, we have just released a new guide to help your health plan leverage trends in the post-reform consumer marketplace.
In our latest whitepaper, we share the keys to success for health plans, including the following:
Consumer Trends: Top 5 Healthcare Executive Consumer Strategy Points, Today’s Healthcare Consumers: Six Types of Consumers You Need to Know, Millennial Consumers Special Report
Technology Trends: Big Data, Administration Technology, Payment Technology, mHealth and more.
Future Trends: Accountable Care Organizations, The Future of Telehealth, Continues Rise of Private Exchanges
All of this, and insights on how to make it work for your health plan.

Healthcare is in crisis. While this is not news for many
countries, we believe what is now different is that the
current paths of many healthcare systems around the
world will become unsustainable by 2015.
This may seem a contrarian conclusion, given the efforts
of competent and dedicated healthcare professionals
and the promise of genomics, regenerative medicine, and
information-based medicine. Yet, it is also true that costs
are rising rapidly; quality is poor or inconsistent; and
access or choice in many countries is inadequate.

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.

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

New Drug Discovery and Development .....NEHA GUPTA
The "New Drug Discovery and Development" process involves the identification, design, testing, and manufacturing of novel pharmaceutical compounds with the aim of introducing new and improved treatments for various medical conditions. This comprehensive endeavor encompasses various stages, including target identification, preclinical studies, clinical trials, regulatory approval, and post-market surveillance. It involves multidisciplinary collaboration among scientists, researchers, clinicians, regulatory experts, and pharmaceutical companies to bring innovative therapies to market and address unmet medical needs.
PPACA is the big elephant in the room. Clearly IHC is taking the initiative and being proactive but you will also have to live in a world of reactionaries around you locally and nationally including how this will change the care seeking behavior of the patient population as they jocky around with health plan channels.
Already seeing this differentiation among healht systems they are beefing up their strategy departments, health and wellness programs, physician acquisition strategies, primary care accountability and so forth. Some are going to get it right, others are going to go through the motions, and others will simply find themselves in a world that no longer exists.
Won’t spend much time on this as it’s busy but point is to illustrate the massive change process underway that will lead to new products and services and ultimately a new social contract that underwrites a shared investment, savings and accountability for all players, particularly for consumers who will have a higher price to pay for opting out of wellness or savings/earnings for opting in.
