Looking forward to participating as a panelist at the upcoming Healthcare Leadership Quorum, discussing Human Capital and People Strategy! We will be diving into critical conversations on how health systems are addressing the growing challenges of workforce vacancies, innovative approaches to retention, and the impact of leadership on fostering a resilient workforce. This is an important opportunity to share insights, learn from industry peers, and collectively tackle the evolving dynamics of healthcare. #workforcedevelopment #HealthcareLeadership #PeopleStrategy #HumanCapital #WorkforceInnovation #HealthcareTransformation

Happy Monday! 😀 It's NATIONAL PHYSICIANS👩⚕️WEEK!! National Physicians Week from March 25th -31st is to honor the healers dedicated to the art of medicine. In 2017, National Physicians Week highlighted the shortage of physicians in the United States against a growing landscape of minorities joining the ranks. "In hindsight, I am proud of what we have accomplished in a short period of time, including raising the recognition of our group and spotlighting the years of sacrifice by those in our profession to serve our patients. We are poised to initiate actionable efforts to engage and educate our physician community." Dr. Kimberly Funches Jackson, President. Every day, dedicated doctors 🧑⚕️provide quality care🩺 in every part of the country twenty-four hours a day. Whether it is in an emergency room in Idaho or delivering a newborn🤱 in the suburbs of Philadelphia, a physician listens to symptoms, watches for signs, analyzes and consults to make, with the patient, the best decisions their years of training and dedication can provide. PAST CELEBRATIONS: In 2018, Physicians Working Together celebrated with their first, National Physician Week physician-led virtual conference. Co-hosted by Physicians Working Together and Zenxmed, the conference included engaging speaker sessions. It also offered an open landscape for physicians to discuss ways to improve their practice and navigate the political landscape. Another area of focus on how physicians can improve relationships with patients and take action through advocacy groups. HOW TO OBSERVE #NationalPhysiciansWeek: Throughout the week, take the opportunity to show your support and appreciation for your physician 👨⚕️or a fellow professional. You can do this by giving them a red carnation🌹. Encourage others and spread the word through social media by using #NationalPhysiciansWeek and #PWT. Stay updated on all things PWT by visiting best2gether.org and the Physicians Working Together website. #dynamicpressurewashingandroofcleaning #homeowners #patio #driveway #siding #refresh #gutters #commercialbuildings #businesses #softwashing #decatur #madison #huntsville

BMHC Board President, The Honorable Dr. Larry Wallace, Jr., Ph.D., co-authored a health-equity-focused article with Dr. Norman Chenven, MD., of Austin Regional Clinic, and David Stein, CEO of Babson Diagnostics, called "Three Guys Walk into a Conference And...", in the July 2024 Edition of the Austin Medical Times Magazine. What is unique about this collaborative piece is how it was born. Three guys, who come from very different places—a medical group, community care coordination, and a diagnostics company—met as they all sat on a panel at the 2023 Healthier Texas Summit hosted by It's Time Texas in collaboration with the University of Texas System. However, they all had one question in common and that is: "How do we remove barriers, make access to care easier, and reduce any fear and anxiety related to getting medical help?" They all acknowledged statistics show the health equity gap appears to be more acute in Texas than in many other states. According to their article, our state recently ranked poorly across 24 healthcare metric determinants spanning across four categories: access, outcomes, cost, and quality of care. They also agreed the challenge of improving care is big and complex, but the place to start is with preventative care.

When Rush University Medical Center in Chicago decided to re-engineer its delivery systems, it connected with the Home Centered Care Institute. Together, we launched the innovative Rush@Home house call program.   Based on a six-month study, the program achieved: • 34% potential lower cost • 18% fewer hospitalizations • 21% reduction in ED visits • 4.6% fewer readmissions   Total Program Savings • Total Actual Six-Month Savings: $761,000 • Total Potential Annualized Savings: Over $1.5 million   Based on these results, a program with 200 MSSP patients would generate over $3 million in savings. Contact HCCI at help@HCCInstitute.org or (630) 283-9222 for more information about how we can work together to establish or expand a house call program for your organization. #housecalls Julie Sacks Melissa Singleton Dana Crosby Thomas Cornwell Paul Chiang Arlyn G.
