    “AI is what it eats” Rachel Dunscombe says you can quote her!

    Joining us in the Pulse Pod studio this week is Rachel Dunscombe, CEO of OpenEHR International and Director at the ECHA Alliance. Rachel is a key figure in advancing digital health systems globally, working with governments all over the world to advance their digital health agendas. She recently addressed the United Nations General Assembly in New York, on the topic of "Leveraging AI for Global Healthcare Delivery". It's a longevity, healthspan, preventative health focused data week on the pod. George and Louise discuss: Are governments spending enough of their health budget on preventative health? Are we taking advantage of digital health to enable a proactive and healthspan focused approach to healthcare? Have humans already maxed out our expected longevity? What happens with our aspirations don’t align with the science? The Commonwealth Fund ranks the performance of health systems in 10 countries. Where did Australia land? What happens when you look under the hood of the headlines? Which country ranked the worst? We predict that AI will revolutionise patient triage. The question is not will it, but when will it? What does this mean for consumers, patients, clinicians and the broader workforce? Two thirds of Australian GPs reckon they are innovators and early adopters.  The Aussie government is making waves in aged care and charging ahead in digital health, including measuring digital maturity in primary care and residential aged care.  Follow Rachel Dunscombe on LinkedIn Resources:  Study on public health funding of preventive health.

    #PatientsUseAI – Do you?

    Our special guest of Pulse is known online as e-Patient Dave. Dave Debronkart is a leading light of determined patient advocacy for individual access to their own health information. Dave joins us in the PulsePod studio to explore a new movement he is championing - #PatientsUseAI OpenAI's Transformation and AI Transparency OpenAI's shift from a non-profit to a for-profit corporation raises concerns about AI transparency, accountability, and the concentration of power in tech. How does this impact healthcare? ChatGPT Use in Healthcare A recent UK study reveals that 20% of surveyed GPs use generative AI tools in clinical practice, highlighting the need for education on both benefits and risks. Patient Data Sharing Controversy Australia's largest medical imaging lab, i-Med, faces scrutiny for sharing patient scans with AI startup Harrison AI. Is this all a bit overblown? AI Consultation in Australia The Department of Health and Aged Care is running a public consultation on Safe and Responsible AI, with healthcare as a priority area for reform. Listeners are encouraged to participate in the consultation and attend the upcoming webinar hosted by the Australian Alliance for Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare (AAAiH). Epic vs Particle: Interoperability & Patient Access to Records A lawsuit between EMR provider Epic and data integration company Particle Health highlights the ongoing debate about patient access to health information and interoperability. The outcome of this case could significantly impact the future of health data sharing and the balance between data protection and patient empowerment. Real World Testing of AI-enabled General Practice Hunter, New England and Central Coast Primary Health Network has launched a new project to test and trial AI tools in 10 of its practices and act as a showcase for these tools.

    Apple & Google, are you listening? (spoiler alert… yes, they are!)

    Matthew Holt, Founder of The Health Care Blog and resident Silicon Valley digital health expert, joins us in the PulsePod studio to talk about the US election, what’s happening in health start-ups and venture capital; and what other countries can learn from the US’s experiments in the retailisation of healthcare. George and Louise discuss Apple’s big health updates - not only is Apple listening, they are helping us hear! Google is experimenting with bioacoustics - by listening to us, can they diagnose respiratory illnesses? Do you live in a country where insurers can discriminate against you on the basis of your genetics? Thankfully, in Australia that is no longer the case. Louise experiments with AI to do an analysis of Lord Darzi’s report into the NHS. The Australian government has a plan to keep older people at home for longer. How will technology enable this?

    Consumers want access to their health information and Daniel McCabe wants to make it happen

    Today’s episode features part 1 of our extended interview with Daniel McCabe, First Assistant Secretary for the Medicare Benefits and Digital Health Division at the Australian Government Department of Health and Aged Care. We dissect the government’s ambitious agenda and their determination to put patients/consumers in the centre of healthcare innovation.  Louise tries to convince George they should join the Ozempic gold rush. Will George consent? The British Medical Journal has published a piece entitled “Patients need access to their medical records—now”, adding a loud voice to the move to share by default health records with patients. What should be the role of tech in treating mental health conditions? The government is under fire for spending precious budget dollars on the wrong things. Now you can get a blood pressure test while you shop for DIY items and munch down on a sausage sizzle. Will the vegans invade that oh-so-precious Australian institution of a sausage in the Bunnings car park? Patient portals are not yet universal in Australia, but they will be if Kath Feely, Chief Allied Health Information Officer across Melbourne’s Parkville hospital precinct has anything to do with it. (Go allied health!) Medical AI scribes are getting traction - can they be used to effortlessly create a version of the clinical note for patients? What do Pulse+IT readers think? And yay to our friends in Canada who have launched the first patient-mediated International Patient Summary in North America. It’s kind of a big deal! Will Australia be following their lead? Be a Sparked Founding member and join government, healthcare providers, established big software companies and some startups too. Join up before 30 August to be considered a Founding Member.
