    Providence's Blueprint for Value-Based, Data-Driven Healthcare feat. Deepak Sadagopan

    Deepak Sadagopan, COO of Population Health at Providence and CEO of Health Connect Partners, joins us on this episode for an in-depth conversation on the transformative power of new healthcare technologies. We unpack the complex shift toward value-based care, how data and analytics solutions are fueling this progression, and the complexity of developing a comprehensive population health strategy across disparate populations with different needs.  We navigate the possibilities of technology in enhancing health equity, while scrutinizing the practical economic implications of this shift. In a world where healthcare IT is evolving at breakneck speeds, yet the system writ-large has been loathe to change, we explore what has changed in the past 15 or so years: the pivotal role of wide adoption of electronic health records, the mandate to develop a complete digital health strategy, and the promise of interoperability initiatives like TEFCA to improve information sharing across the healthcare landscape. Sadagopan, a seasoned veteran in healthcare system operations, sheds light on Providence's journey towards capitation, and what it takes to manage a sprawling network of care with a focus on delivering patient-centered quality within the context of numerous different value-based contracts.  We round off our discussion by considering the impact of healthcare technology investments, weighing the significance of ROI against the broader spectrum of patient outcomes and health equity. Join us as we uncover the advancements in healthcare information infrastructure and how Providence prioritizes patient-reported outcomes in their operational improvement efforts, pushing the envelope on what it means to deliver modern, quality care in America.

    Regulation as a Forcing Function for Innovation feat. Micky Tripathi, HHS' National Coordinator for Health IT

    I recently spoke with Micky Tripathi, National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, about assessing value in digital health / healthcare IT investments and how federal action can help  coordinate progress in healthcare technology. We discussed the role of federal policy, highlights from recent ONC legislation, and opportunities ahead.  Join us on a journey through Micky's unconventional path from political science to spearheading health data interoperability initiatives, and glean insights into the transformative impact of federal regulations like the 21st Century Cures Act on the adoption of healthcare IT. In our candid exchange, we scrutinize the evolution of health information exchange networks and the essential role of governance in safeguarding data integrity and trust. With the ONC's craftsmanship of the SDOH playbook under the Biden-Harris administration, we break down the quest for health equity through data integration initiatives like USCDI and TEFCA.  Having established a digital baseline, the industry now looks to innovate upon that core to truly begin unlocking value from these assets. There is still so much untapped potential to utilize health data for major initiatives, such as the Cancer Moonshot program or solving for the maternal health divide.  For those passionate about influencing healthcare policy, we close with Micky's advice on how to wield your voice through public comment opportunities. Tune in for this  opportunity to hear from a vaunted pillar of healthcare IT policymaking, and learn about his future vision for digital health.

    Unlocking the Value of Data-Driven Healthcare with Keith Figlioli of LRVHealth

    In this episode of the Chilcast, John Moore interviews Keith Figlioli, Managing Partner at LRVHealth and host of the Health Care is Hard podcast. Continuing the theme of the Health Impact Project series, the two discuss current market conditions in healthcare and how various stakeholders are assessing the value of digital health implementations today. Keith shares insights from his experiences at Explorys and Premier, as well as what he learns from the conversations he has with other industry leaders in his current role. He notes we are entering the "second wave" of digital health focused on fundamentally transforming how and where care is delivered, largely driven by the macro force of ongoing clinical scarcity.  Figlioli emphasizes that healthcare organizations must keep innovating despite economic challenges. Successful technologies will demonstrate clear cost reductions or revenue growth. He believes priorities include automating administrative tasks, improving patient scheduling, integrating medical evidence into EHRs, and streamlining prior authorizations. Looking ahead over the next decade, Figlioli sees major changes coming in specialty care similar to recent disruption in primary care, with private equity becoming more involved. He advises health systems to carefully define their competitive differentiation and not spread themselves too thin. Partnerships will become increasingly important. Moore and Figlioli agree the market is resetting to more realistic dynamics after a period of excessive hype and overvalued companies. But substantial venture funding continues to flow into digital health focused on true transformation.

    Can We Get Some Service!? Delivering Patient Value in the Digital Age with Grace Cordovano, PhD, BCPA

    In our third guest episode for the Health Impact Project, we invited our friend Grace Cordovano, PhD, BCPA, to discuss the value of healthcare technology from her perspective as a patient advocate. In addition to running her advocacy practice, Enlightening Results, and her startup, Unblock Health, Grace is also involved with the Cancer X Initiative, the Sequoia Project, and the National Academy of Medicine's AI Code of Conduct Project. She also happens to be one of our favorite people to follow on LinkedIn. During this conversation, Dr. Cordovano speaks to her experiences working with patients, noting the toll of patient administrative work, the impact of financial toxicity, and the role of technology in improving access to care – in particular clinical trials for cancer treatment. We talk about the value of healthcare organizations from the patients' perspective, where the most important outcomes are focused on reducing suffering and appropriately aligning with each individual's values – making sure to see them as a person and not as just a statistic or their diagnosis. This brought remote patient monitoring, palliative care, and digital tools into the conversation, as these have all been shown to greatly improve quality of life in the right situations. Most of our discussion can be summarized in one particularly compelling statement that Grace made, and which underlies much of her policy-focused work: anything in healthcare that touches the patient should be aligned with giving that individual a competitive advantage against their diagnosis. This perspective is so compelling and easy to grasp, but not one we hear anywhere near often enough. Key Takeaways: The patient administrative burden continues to worsen and it's clear that only proper regulation will be effective in curtailing this. Just like with provider-facing solutions, this is an area where information technology can be particularly effective in supporting users' needs.Better access to clinical trials, and greater diversity in these trials is essential to creating healthy populations – particularly in cancer care and rare disease treatment.Remote monitoring and home care are [re-]emerging as particularly effective models of care that improve quality of life, but there are many considerations to take into account in each case when deciding if its appropriate.It is crucial for any company or organization touching patient lives to incorporate the perspective of actual patients in the development of their solutions and services, otherwise "patient-centric" is merely lip-service to a current buzzword.

    The Health Impact Project: GAAP for HCIT ROI? LOL GTFO

    In the second Chilcast episode featuring the Health Impact Project team, we go deeper with our exploration into the challenges of assessing the value of digital health and health IT implementations. This conversation explores the history of recent legislation and regulation that impact the healthcare sector, specifically the interplay between technology regulation pushed via HHS and care model innovation pushed by CMS. We also introduce the idea of a healthcare innovation version of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), with a brief exploration of why nothing like this exists already. As with most of these episodes, we conclude with a call for a collaborative conversation to drive industry maturity and improve patient outcomes. The conversation captured on this episode, as well as the next group one, both tie into our recently published article, "When world's collide: How two decades of regulation both advanced and hindered our transformative vision of healthcare innovation." Takeaways Legislation has played a significant role in shaping the adoption of IT in the healthcare industry, but has come up against care model reform legislation that often doesn't neatly align with IT maturity. This has created extra burden on decision makers who must balance these prerogatives.Challenges remain in assessing the value of technology, especially due to the complexity of current shifts in the economics of care.Our industry needs to develop its own equivalent of generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) for evaluating the impact and return on investment (ROI) of health technologies. This is complicated by the moral mandate of the healthcare industry, where the outcomes of "free market forces" are not always best for the population being served. Any calculation of ROI needs to account for this double bottom line.Collaboration and a shared understanding of value are essential for driving industry success with technology use cases, which in turn should improve  outcomes and experiences.

    Deciphering the Value Equation for Health Tech with Bessemer Venture Partners

    In this episode of the Chilcast, John Moore interviews Steve Kraus (Partner) and Sofia Guerra (Vice President) at Bessemer Venture Partners' (BVP) Cambridge, MA, office, about how venture capital firms perceive the value and impact of health technologies. Key topics discussed: BVP takes a "bilingual" approach with expertise in both healthcare and technology to identify innovative opportunities. With healthcare being far behind other industries in digitization and consumerization, they're able to apply expertise and insights from other enterprise technology adoption to healthcare.Major challenges facing healthcare technology companies include long sales cycles, fragmentation into niche solutions, and financing risk. However, there is strong talent for building cutting-edge health products now.To drive adoption, developers need to first create end user love. Know who your users are going to be, what they really want from a solution, and then deliver on that.  In healthcare, it's critical to show both clinical outcomes and financial ROI. Appeal to key decision makers - CTOs, CMIOs, CIOs.  Major societal healthcare challenge is marginal outcomes at too high costs, largely due to the fee-for-service payment system. Value-based care helps address this, but we're still figuring out what this means from both an economic and regulatory standpoint.Consumer engagement remains a huge unmet need. Giving consumers choice drives efficiency and quality as it has in other industries.Disruptors like Amazon and Microsoft will have impact by focusing on their core competencies in areas like consumer experience and AI automation.The market downturn will persist through 2023 into 2024 but strong companies will emerge from the noise during this period as the broader markets rebound. Continued innovation opportunities will also arise from new regulations and the evolving needs of a changing market.
