This week we celebrate the 5-year milestone of our Hong Kong office opening 🎉! Under the leadership of Gary Cheng and Vivek Mittal, we reflect on the journey from the initial team of expatriates and local members to a fully locally hired team, establishing a strong presence in the region. Our Hong Kong office has expanded Health Advances' global reach and allowed us to deepen our relationships with APAC-based clients and those looking to enter APAC markets. #GrowthMilestone #GlobalStrategy #APACoffice

Health Advances reposted this
Digital Health, Digital Therapeutics, and Healthcare Consulting Executive and Expert. Strategic Leader in Market Access, Commercialization, and Product Development.
MEDPAC recently put out a report and dedicated a whole chapter (number 4) to "Paying for Software Technologies in Medicare". It is a great summary of how Medicare can pay for software (SaMD and SiMD), how it defines as software (it may not be what you think), and offers perspectives on what software is currently reimbursed and what future reimbursement may look like. TL/DR..... Indirectly through this report, Medicare is worried about the expense of paying for software technologies, but.... I think it recognizes the value of software and is looking for ways to capture value for patients. The report strikes a balance of pragmatism while keeping the door open for expanding Medicare coverage and reimbursement for digital health technologies. It isn't overly optimistic, but still hopeful. Preliminary Highlights 1. There are two types of software SaMD ( to CMS / MEDPAC) Software as a Service (SaaS) and Prescription Digital Therapeutics (PDTs) 2. If it isn't FDA approved or cleared, it isn't appropriate for Medicare 3. Products and services needs to fit into an exisitng benefit category and payment scheme ( IPPS / OPPS etc) 4.Sublte but important thing. Where as someone may have called AppliedVR's (which has its own HCPCS code, yay Liesl Oldstone, PhD, MBA, RPh, Emily Judge, and AppliedVR) RelieVRx SiMD, the document states that it is a PDT, but "the medical software and the device in which it is housed are integral to each other". PDTs are SaMD.... interesting.... 5. Medicare is covering and reimbursing SaaS today and it will continue to do so 6. MEDPAC is nervous about the potential financial implications due to the proliferation of SaMD entering the market. They seem to be open to expanding coverage and reimbursement but are looking for innovative solutions to drive competition, value, and cost controls. https://lnkd.in/gmE9pngB

Health Advances' consultant Sydney Upah, attended the "Future of Wearables" talk led by Will Ahmed, CEO of WHOOP. We are excited to learn more about the latest cutting-edge advancements in #wearables and #remotepatientmonitoring that enable healthier lifestyles.
Last week I attended “The Future of Wearables”, an inspiring interview with CEO/President Will Ahmed. He discussed an unwavering vision and resiliency to create a high-end performance device from the WHOOP HQ rooftop overlooking the Charles River and Fenway park – complete with outdoor space, ping-pong tables, cold plunges, and the iconic Citgo sign. Initially marketed as a performance brand for athletes and fitness enthusiasts, the consumer wearable is now broadly sold to health-conscious consumers seeking awareness of health and well-being. Three key metrics remain core to the platform including strain, recovery, and sleep, which encourage healthy lifestyle behaviors for all members - including Whoop employees who receive incentives for sleep scores! True to the initial vision of unlocking data on the human body, Whoop developed impressive data during the Covid pandemic to identify at-risk individuals with abnormal respiratory rates. Along with ŌURA, Whoop recently announced a commitment to women’s healthcare, addressing underrepresentation in clinical research while highlighting Whoop’s menstrual cycle insights and pregnancy-related features. Differentiated by a sleek screenless design, this ‘non-watch’ wearable seeks to empower individuals with medical insights and encourage better, cost-effective primary care to positively impact the healthcare system. Whoop’s latest feature includes a health coach powered by OpenAI. We’re excited to see continued advancement in the space, and the impact of consumer wearables on clinical research and healthcare. Thank you to Greg Chittim for contributions!
