Did you miss CEO Dan Stinton (Healthengine) and Dr Nick Coatsworth (Australian Patients Association) on the Channel 9 Today show, discussing the 6th #Australian #Healthcare Index? Watch the interview here: https://lnkd.in/gdz57fda Together, Healthengine and the Australian Patients Association surveyed over 9,000 Australians to understand their perspectives on healthcare, evolving needs, and the impact of economic factors and government schemes. The report reveals a concerning pattern of delayed #GP and #dental visits, people going without needed #medication as cost-of-living pressures bite and wait times continuing to expand. There are some great strengths in there too. Download the report here: https://shorturl.at/S8Smu

Virtual care is evolving, but how are we measuring value beyond cost saving? Omada Health is committing to the American Medical Association's Return on Health framework us to holistically evaluate virtual care. At Omada Health, we are committed to high-quality, evidence-based care that prioritizes: ⭐ Clinical Outcomes, Quality, and Safety 🔍 Access to Care 👍 Patient Satisfaction 👩⚕️ Care Team Experience 💰 Economic Impact By integrating an equity lens into care, we can help extend virtual care to all populations.

Especially for National #SelfCareWeek preliminary insights of our recent research with Self-Care Academic Research Unit (SCARU) -The Living Self-Care Study has been revealed. Unsurprisingly, findings reveal that most people #selfcare (4 out of 5) with just 4 per cent visiting a GP for symptoms of common conditions. Interestingly there is a disconnect between patients and health professionals believing patients are unwilling to self-care whilst patients themselves say they already self-care and want more responsibility. To address this disconnect the research suggests a common language is needed for health professionals and patients to be able to talk #selfcare to each other.  More here https://bit.ly/3Z2HJ8I Helen Donovan Trevor Gore Michael Holden FRPharmS FRSPH Mark Duman MRPharmS Duman .

#PCPs were generally satisfied with nurse-led, pre-visit welcome video visits that were performed ahead of their face-to-face meetings. The evolution of #telemedicine in #PrimaryCare can address meet various patient needs.

Are patients more inclined to value outcomes or experience when evaluating medical teams? Across 5 different countries, a total of 998 patients considered patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) more important in choosing a medical team.

What Do Patients Value More: Outcomes or Experiences? "These data suggest that, perhaps at times, the priorities of payment model design, insurers, and, indeed, perhaps clinicians are less completely aligned with what matters most to patients." This study explores whether patients place more importance on treatment outcomes (Patient-Reported Outcome Measures, PROMs) or their experiences (Patient-Reported Experience Measures, PREMs) when evaluating medical teams. The survey included 998 patients from four European countries (France, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom) with conditions such as breast cancer, diabetes, inflammatory bowel disease, depression, or arthritis. 69.9% of patients found outcomes very important, while 58.1% considered experiences very important. The study suggests that health care quality measurements and models should focus more on PROMs since patients generally find them more important than PREMs. This insight is crucial for designing value-based payment models that align better with what patients value most in their health care journey.

In 2023 we see Health Systems emerging as pivotal partners in Digital Health . The aim of these Health Systems is to address pain points and innovate. When examining 🏥 Intermountain Health, we discover that the leading Digital Health Cluster in terms of the number of ventures is Health Management Solutions, followed by Medical Diagnostics. In terms of therapeutic focus, the approach appears to be disease agnostic. Intermountain has established partnerships with Digital Health ventures such as Included Health, Amwell and others. More on Intermountain Health's innovation efforts, partnerships and other therapeutic areas of focus. #digitalhealth #hospitals #healthsystems #healthcare #digitalhealthinnovation #healthcareinnovation

When health systems, population-health service providers and health plans are on the same page, good things happen. Dr. Stephanie Duggan MD, FACEP, FAAPL, CPE, Chief Clinical Officer, highlighted some achievements of SSM Health’s partnership with Navvis (healthcare) at the recent Medica ACO Summit: • Standardized, systematic approaches to population health • Nearly doubling the number of patients engaged in value-based care over three years • Clinical quality measures in the top 90% Working together, we can achieve the Quadruple Aim of American health care – higher quality, improved patient experience, lower costs, and reduced clinician burnout. In short, helping all people live their healthiest lives. #Healthcare #ValueBasedCare
