The Future of AI in Healthcare with Amol Navathe, MD, PhD

Artificial intelligence (AI) and increased computing power have long held the promise of improving prediction and prognostication in health care. Now, use of predictive analytics and AI in medicine, though with fits and starts, is transitioning from hype to reality: Several commercial algorithms have received regulatory approval for broad clinical use.  But the barrier for entry of new advanced algorithms has been low. To unlock the potential of advanced analytics while protecting patient safety, regulatory and professional bodies should ensure that advanced algorithms meet accepted standards of clinical benefit, just as they do for clinical therapeutics and predictive biomarkers.  External validation and prospective testing of advanced algorithms are clearly needed, but recent regulatory clearances raise concerns over the rigor of this process.  This is a snippet of just the introduction to our guest today's peer reviewed research paper on the regulation of predictive analytics in healthcare.  Today’s guest on The State of Healthcare, Dr. Amol Navathe, is an Assistant Professor of Health Policy and Medicine and a Senior Fellow at the Leonard Davis Institute for Health Economics at the University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Navathe is a practicing physician, health economist, and engineer.  Dr. Navathe’s expertise is focused in three core areas: (1) the impact of alternative payment models, particularly bundled payments, on the cost and quality of health care; (2) financial and non-financial incentive design, including applications of behavioral economics, to drive clinician practice change; and (3) predictive analytics and informatics to improve health care delivery Each of which are spoken about in today's episode.  In this episode, we talk about… • Where we are as an industry today when it comes to digital health • The steps we need to take to take our predictive analytics to the next level • Policy when it comes to creating an AI standard of care • The different levels of and the specific uses for AI today in healthcare • What Dr. Navathe is excited about when it comes to the future of healthcare Follow Dr. Navathe on: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amol-s-navathe-6852a9/ [https://www.linkedin.com/in/amol-s-navathe-6852a9/] Twitter: https://twitter.com/AmolNavathe [https://twitter.com/AmolNavathe] Website: https://ldi.upenn.edu/expert/amol-navathe-md-phd [https://ldi.upenn.edu/expert/amol-navathe-md-phd] Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-state-of-healthcare/id1521338921 â–º Subscribe to Our Channel Here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnKh9Nql6bhlQjs2lIKvtyQ/ We are on a journey at HALOS Systems to help healthcare organizations optimize their population management.

Taking a Global View of Healthcare to Make a Local Change with Jason Helgerson

Value based reimbursement ties payments for care delivery to the quality of care provided and rewards providers for both efficiency and effectiveness.   A discussion that has gone on for years is one of transitioning from a FFS payment structure to a value based reimbursement structure.    While the FFS model promotes the quantity of services rendered by a physician, value based reimbursement is focused on the quality of care given to patients.    This centers around patient outcomes, and how well healthcare providers can improve quality of care based on specific measures.   Today’s guest on The State of Healthcare, Jason Helgerson, has been on the forefront of this change on a Global Sale.  He is the Founder and Chief Solutions Officer of Helgerson Solutions Group, a firm focused on helping companies, providers, payers and governments make the move to value in health care.   In this episode, we talk about…   • The global view of value based healthcare and how that effects us on a local level  • The growing need to focus on social determinants of health as a catalyst to a successful organization  • A focus on user experience in the future of healthcare  • Steps to navigating forward into value based care at an organizational level  • New Business Ideas for our entrepreneurial listeners   Follow Jason on:   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jason-helgerson-69a0411/   Twitter: https://twitter.com/policywonk1   Check out Helgerson Solutions Group:   Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/company/helgerson-solutions-group/   Twitter: https://twitter.com/HSG_4_Value   Website: https://www.helgersonsolutions.com/   Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-state-of-healthcare/id1521338921      â–º Subscribe to Our Channel Here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnKh9Nql6bhlQjs2lIKvtyQ/      We are on a journey at HALOS Systems to help healthcare organizations optimize their population management.

Social Determinants of Health as the Catalyst for Change in Healthcare With John Gorman

The United States’ current healthcare industry fails to provide coverage and support for millions of Americans.    Resources and health are inextricably linked, with the poorest among of us caught in a cycle of poor health outcomes as a product of their circumstances.    In order to provide for the needs of the underserved and overlooked, the healthcare industry needs to rethink its strategy and tackle the issue at the core of all health outcomes: social determinants of health.   Driven by impact and dedicated to change, Nightingale Partners is leading the industry in addressing health inequity in the United States.   That is one of the first things you read when you visit the website of Nightingale Partners, the company started by our Guest today, John Gorman.  With social determinants equating to 60-80% of total healthcare costs, what John and his team are doing at Nightingale is beyond needed.   Today John and Ned talk to how the social determinants can truly be the catalyst for change in the healthcare industry and the steps we need to take as an industry to effect change in our communities.   Throughout our conversation we talk about:  Where we are today as an industry when it comes to the social determinants Food insecurity and savings attached to taking action Nightingale Partners’ initiatives across the country   Tactical action steps for plans, groups and providers to take in order to affect change in their communities   Follow John at:   Twitter: https://twitter.com/johngorman18   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gorman-098b265/   Nightingale Partners: https://www.nightingalepartners.org/   Subscribe on Apple Podcasts Here: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-state-of-healthcare/id1521338921   â–º Subscribe to Our Channel Here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCnKh9Nql6bhlQjs2lIKvtyQ/   We are on a journey at HALOS Systems to help healthcare organizations optimize their population management.
