Also don’t outsource your hospital’s core services to a GPO ran by foreign PE… I do find it so odd that Vizient’s own contracts couldn’t stand on their own so they had to create a aggregation group with Mayo Clinic called Capits. (https://lnkd.in/gpiVDKvn) Which by the way Mayo Clinic is being sued because not only does Mayo control pricing on supply chain contracts for Vizient, but guess who controls pricing on their self insured insurance plan. (https://lnkd.in/guvx5mqr) Oh and as of November of last year Mayo Clinic lead their state in adverse healthcare events. (https://lnkd.in/gXsPi2sw) Should I go on or have I made my point clear on why Oklahoma hospitals should not blindly follow Vizient, Captis, and the Mayo Clinic?

Walmart Exits Healthcare Market: RPM Steps Up to Fill the Gap... Walmart's departure from the healthcare market, including its virtual health care services, will leave a void in care services for underserved communities. While hospitals and primary care providers (PCPs) remain the backbone of our healthcare ecosystem, their resilience is rooted in the trust relationships they've built with patients. This trust is a cornerstone of effective care, and RPM can help hospitals and PCPs extend their reach. RPM uses digital technologies to monitor patients' vital signs, health data, and other relevant information remotely, enabling healthcare providers to deliver timely interventions and preventive care. By leveraging RPM, we can: - Increase access to care for underserved communities - Detect health issues early, preventing complications - Deliver personalized care plans - Reduce healthcare costs - Empower patients to take a more active role in their healthcare As we move forward, RPM can help address the disparities in healthcare access and ensure that everyone has access to quality care, regardless of their zip code or background. Let's harness the power of RPM to create a more equitable and accessible healthcare ecosystem! #RemotePatientMonitoring #Telehealth #DigitalHealth #HealthcareAccess https://lnkd.in/eD7CcaEm

Mandatory bundles in surgery are a bi-partisan objective, and (in)ability to optimize cost/quality will dramatically impact hospital P&L. Regular insights from granular data , and AI-based decision support are the only way to systemically reduce unwanted variability and be both profitable and high quality.

Integrating specialty care with value-based models aims to improve patient outcomes and reduce costs through better data sharing, alternate payment structures, and financial incentives for collaboration. This can lead us to a future healthcare system with more coordinated care and increased focus on cost-effectiveness, long-term outcomes, and enhancing the overall patient experience. #Healthcare #ValueBasedCare #VBC

🔎 Senators See Possible Conflicts of Interest in Health Care Pricing Tools The chairmen of two Senate committees overseeing health policy, Ron Wyden of Oregon and Bernie Sanders of Vermont, are looking into the practices of data analytics firm MultiPlan. Concerned about companies prioritizing their own profits over patient well-being, the senators are investigating MultiPlan's business model, which recommends lower payments to medical providers. This model could lead to a conflict of interest, as MultiPlan and insurers can collect higher fees when payouts are lower. The senators have called on MultiPlan to discuss their investigation and address concerns raised by a recent New York Times article. Read the full article here: Senators See Possible Conflicts of Interest in Health Care Pricing Tools MultiPlan has stated that they are working with the Senate committees to explain the complexities patients face when choosing high-priced care outside their networks, emphasizing their commitment to making healthcare transparent, fair, and affordable for all. This inquiry reflects the growing scrutiny of MultiPlan, which has faced allegations of anticompetitive behavior and collusion with insurers to fix prices. The Department of Labor also has ongoing investigations into the type of pricing services provided by MultiPlan. The attention on MultiPlan highlights the importance of employer-based health insurance, which is the most common way Americans receive coverage. Employers are increasingly looking into the cost of administering their plans and are frustrated by limited access to claims data. Legislation has been introduced to address this issue, requiring insurers to provide employers with claims data. As the investigation unfolds, it remains to be seen how MultiPlan and insurers will address concerns and ensure that patient well-being is prioritized over profits. #HealthCarePricing #PatientAdvocacy #HealthInsurance #DataAnalytics #SenateCommittees

🥼Bridging the Gaps in Inpatient Healthcare: Lessons Learned As a founder of a digital health company, I’ve faced critical gaps in inpatient care. Here’s what I’ve learned about addressing these challenges effectively: Key Challenges 1. Specialty Physician Shortages: A shortage of specialty physicians leads to overworked staff and longer wait times. 2. Financial Constraints: Budget limitations often prevent investment in new technologies or service expansion. 3. Outdated Technology: Many hospitals rely on outdated systems that hinder efficiency and patient outcomes. 4. Disintegrated Systems: Lack of integration between tech systems results in fragmented care. Strategies for Success 1. Start with the Lowest Hanging Fruit: Begin by tackling the most immediate issue—in our case, specialty physician shortages. Implementing telehealth for remote consultations can significantly extend the reach of specialists. 2. Develop Cost-Effective Solutions: Instead of relying on expensive out-of-the-box options, consider developing your own technology. This approach can provide advanced capabilities while keeping costs manageable. 3. Ensure Integration: Design solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing hospital systems. This minimizes disruption and enhances current workflows. 4. Leverage Clinician Expertise: Involve tech-savvy clinicians in your core team. Their insights are invaluable in creating practical and effective innovations. 5. Utilize AI for Communication: Use AI to improve clinical communication. This can enhance the quality and timeliness of care by streamlining information sharing and reducing errors. 6. Invest in Training: Prioritize training for hospital staff to ensure they can effectively use new technology. This is crucial for maximizing the benefits of any new system. Addressing inpatient healthcare gaps requires a focused, practical approach. At LIVEMED Telehealth™ we started with the most pressing issues, developed cost-effective and integrated solutions, and leveraged clinician expertise. Utilizing AI and investing in staff training has further enhanced outcomes. These strategies can help bridge the gaps in healthcare delivery, improving both patient care and hospital efficiency. #physicianleadership #digitalhealth #healthcare #medicine #healthcareinnovation #aiinhealthcare #medtech #hospitals
