HCU Network America’s Post

Indeed, we need to honor all who serve in 2621 counties lowest in health care workforce despite the health care killing combination of worst public and worst private health plans. Concentrations of elderly, poor, disabled shape concentrations of public plans paying 65 - 85% of the cost of delivering care - particularly bad for Community Health Centers with 50% Medicaid. But these counties also have weaker employers with their worst paychecks, benefits, and health plans. The US insurance design is worst in the developed nations, but it fails completely when employer based health insurance is not capable of paying the 130 - 200% that can bail out the concentrations of public plans. When will CMS get the message and help HRSA instead of voting 1.4 trillion a year against what HRSA is trying to do? We have to stop the decline of health care for most Americans most behind. We have to stop the hemorrhage of health professionals from health care. Reversing 40 years of poor assumptions is difficult, but essential for any progress for HRSA program success and for most Americans most behind. Health care is about teams. Why is CMS not a team player?

A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step. Our first ever #PatientPartnershipConference is a first step in changing #TheHse to #OurHSE - one that might not be perfect but one that we can be proud of. Whatever we do to improve our health & social care system we have to do it together. #PatientPartnership #BetterTogether

Words and titles mean alot.

A solutions-based approach to #patientsafety is key to addressing systems-level issues and supporting the healthcare workforce. The National Patient Safety Board Act was designed to help advance tools and technologies that anticipate and prevent harms and protect patients and clinicians. We can do so much more to end #medicalerrors. Join the call for a national strategy to make health care safer.

In an inspiring video, Prof Teodoro Forcht Dagi, a volunteer neurosurgeon at Sheba, speaks about miracles. His perspective was enlightening. Prof. Teodoro highlights how Sheba is more than a hospital; it's a city of hope and healing, where daily miracles are not just medical feats but also acts of human kindness. I am deeply humbled by his kind words for Sheba.  Watch the video here:

I am excited about my new role! Myself and Devin Nickol, a colleague from Nebraska, are the Co-Convenors for the American Interprofessional Health Collaborative (AIHC). The AIHC community of practice recently reorganized its structure to embody a collaborative approach. Some changes in the structure included: ✔ Instead of using the term President, we are using Convenor. ✔ Instead of single individual leading the organization, we will work together with the Collaboration Hub. ✔ The Collaboration Hub includes representation from Collaboratives/Committees, community members, health professional students, and the National Center. ✔New processes will minimize traditional hierarchies that are barriers to transformation and efficient work. We are walking the collaboration talk with a vision of transforming health through interprofessional collaborations bridging practice and education. #collaboration #joinus #interprofessional

TEQ 2020 which verdict is expected to be heard shortly from Delhi high court. Ministry of Health and Family Welfare though given orders to revert the 1998 TEQ with regards to Medical Msc/Medical MSc+PhD teachers to NMC twice. And recently National MSc Medical Teachers association (NMMTA) had organised a protest against the NMC policies at Jantar Mantar on 21-08-2023. Globally 60% -80% Faculties in these non-clinical departments are MSc+PhD are serving the CBME very well. CBME is new to India but it’s a normal practice Globally. It seems the NMC wants Monopoly in the system which will fall the whole medical education system indeed failing the medical system. Medical system is a team work, where all the members like ANM, GNM, ASHAs, BHMS, BAMS, MBBS, MD, Medical MSc/Medical MSc+PhD etc all work together hand in hand to strengthen the medical services and achieve the SDGs effectively, NMC monopoly and Biased regulation are rendering to create more of faculty shortage in medical education and also leaving several well qualified members to either brain drain or become a non-productive human resources. Being less in number our representations are usually disregarded by NMC. Vipul Aggarwal
