Medically Home  VP, Clinical Strategy and Implementation, Linda V. DeCherrie M.D. was invited to serve as a panelist at this year's Oliver Wyman Health Innovation Summit in Chicago which took place last week. The session called, All That Jazz: Navigating The Shift To Care At Home, focused on realizing the full potential of the home as a site of care. Key takeaway: Panelists debated which elements are further along or further behind in moving care to the home, each providing letter grades A-F to where they believe we are currently in areas such as consumer experience, clinical efficacy and payment models. The area where there was agreement is that the patient experience and clinical efficacy for hospital at home care are positive while there is a ways to go with payment models. Dr. DeCherrie is a foremost authority on hospital at home care and is a frequent speaker and panelist on the topic. #hospitalathome

Imagine a world where healthcare’s biggest problems intersect with the world’s best technology in a culture of innovation. That’s the goal of the Veale Initiative for Health Care Innovation at University Hospitals, established in 2023 through the support of a $10 million visionary gift from The Veale Foundation.   “With the Veale model, we will systematically identify complex problems and pilot solutions using the best technologies. If we see meaningful savings, improved patient outcomes or operational efficiency, and our caregivers find it useful, then we will scale across our system,” explained Brandon Cornuke, Executive Director of the Veale Initiative. “Backed with rigorous clinical studies, we’ll share our learnings with other health systems and ecosystem partners. In doing so, we’ll amplify our learning and, hopefully, help advance the healthcare industry. This information can also serve to inform government policy decisions.” "We are building a first-of-its-kind model that we hope will transform healthcare organizations around the world into dramatically safer and far more cost-effective systems.”, said Peter Pronovost MD, PhD, FCCM, UH Chief Quality and Clinical Transformation Officer, Veale Distinguished Chair in Leadership and Clinical Transformation.
