Of the individuals in the US with limited English proficiency, 38% speak a language other than Spanish. If a patient's preferred language is not available when scheduling their appointment, communication is less effective and the patient experience is less engaging. These factors lead to appointment no-shows that can create gaps in care and poor health outcomes. Next Tuesday, our Chief Medical Officer, Tracy Angelocci, MD, will review with CareMessage customers best practices for creating a strategy to communicate with patients in their preferred language. We'll address common roadblocks to implementing these strategies and share tips to efficiently make the biggest language-based impact. Customers received an invitation to this webinar earlier this week. If you're not a CareMessage customer and you want to learn more- drop a comment below!

This Moment That Made a Difference showcases how intermediary Lara* used a trusty biro as visual aid, which supported a court user to understand key medical evidence and give informed instructions - a great demonstration of how a seemingly small strategy can make a big difference to effective participation. *Names and details have been changed Alt text:  Lara* assisted Hazel* during a Fact Finding-Hearing in the family court. There was lots of detailed discussion about the medical evidence. Experts gave their opinions about when a bone fracture may have taken place. Hazel could not understand why the experts believed the injury had occurred earlier than her family thought it did. Without an understanding of the expert evidence, Hazel could not see why so much court time was spent discussing it. She presented as increasingly frustrated and began to disengage.  Hazel needed to understand the evidence in order to give instructions on her position in the case. Lara used a pen and its lid to provide a quick visual explanation. Lara took the lid off her pen and explained that when a bone is broken, there is a gap between the two pieces. “As the break heals, the two slowly come back together”. Hazel watched Lara put the lid back on the pen, halfway. Lara explained that doctors can look at a picture (x-ray) of the break and see whether the bone is in two, joined together, or somewhere in between. By looking at how healed the break is, a doctor can work out how long ago the injury likely happened. This simple visual representation enabled Hazel to grasp the basis of the experts’ opinions and why the evidence was so important to the hearing. Understanding this helped Hazel to engage in discussions about the impact of this evidence on her own case, and give informed instructions.
