This afternoon Cadence founder and CEO Chris Altchek joined Lifepoint Health®’s David Dill, Ascension Saint Thomas' Fahad Tahir and TeamHealth’s Leif Murphy on stage at Nashville Health Care Council #Sessions2024. The group delved deep into the transformative power of collaboration in driving results for patients, communities, and health systems. Chris shared, “When it comes to these kinds of partnerships, instead of angling for ownership or interest, we take the approach of ‘we’re all in this together’ because it’s really not a zero-sum game.” Technology will have an even more profound impact on how healthcare is delivered in the coming decade. It’s not just about making care more efficient, it’s about making it more proficient. The future is about forming fewer but deeper partnerships, working alongside the best health systems to personalize guidelines and raise the standard of care at scale.

The growing use of digital technologies is not only shaping people's daily lives, but also driving the direction of their health journeys and shaping the organizational structure and services of our hospitals and clinics. Behavioral health is front and centre of this shift due to the increasing demand and the need for innovative solutions to address challenges like limited resources and staffing shortages. Providers are adapting to these changes to meet the evolving needs of patients effectively. We recently had the pleasure of attending Becker's Healthcare Behavioral Health Virtual Event, spotlighting behavioral health innovation and its implications for the future of healthcare. 🔑 The key takeaways: 💡 Since the pandemic, behavioral health providers are “treating sicker and sicker patients from medical perspectives versus behavioral health perspectives alone”. - Amy Smiley, FACHE, MBA, MSW 💡 With a trend towards patients having more medical complexities, staffing, team-based care and rapid access will continue to be key barriers - Matt Brown. 💡 TikTok celebrities and content creators have access to people’s time, minds and social world in ways healthcare professionals do not. With the right tools and strategies Tony Thrasher, D.O., MBA, CPE, DFAPA posed providers can be on the apps too - positively engaging and influencing healthcare on a population level through the screen. At Wysa, we believe: ✅ Establishing HealthTech innovations that streamline team-based care through automated triage, enable care pathways, and offer intuitive patient monitoring will set the new standard. ✅ Digital innovations can cater to both providers and patients. ✅ Patient-facing services like Wysa can provide immediate, convenient, and just-in-time support throughout the care journey. What are your thoughts? We look forward to contributing to the problem-solving efforts to effectively support both patients and providers, for better outcomes within behavioral health and beyond. #HealthcareInnovation #HealthTech #WholePersonCare #BeckersHealthcare #FutureOfHealthcare

“Take on the system for me. Be the one.” #Employeebenefits and #hrbenefits leaders come to Quantum Health when they realize #healthplan redesign is necessary for better #care, better experience, and lower costs for their employees. Tacking on point solutions to an ASO or TPA model only leads to increased fees and slightly better performance. It’s like putting a turbo and exhaust system on a 2005 compact car. The modifications are high-quality, but the engine is still a 4-cylinder with 100k miles on it so all you get is a car that sounds like a weed whacker and goes a little faster. A #health plan model (vehicle) built with Independent Navigation as the engine, means when you modify with point solutions (turbo and exhaust) and other benefits, you’re going to get top performance for your plan and your employees. Put your employees in a high-performance vehicle. They’ll get way better results and will enjoy the drive. 🏎️😎 This one is for you Lenny Skelton Jr.

The article from Becker's Healthcare on IT professionals is noteworthy for two reasons: it makes no mention of AI and emphasizes the importance of culture and relationships to integrate IT into the 'healthcare family." This approach contrasts sharply with the world of IT and software-only companies, where utility & share price often dictate one's existence, relationships, and fate. #healthcare #IT #contactcenters #virtualcare

Looking forward to a great discussion on a timely and critical topic! The notion that all companies are now healthcare companies is truer now than ever before. Demands for healthy workforces and access to equitable care are playing a central role in how companies approach human capital strategy, given the positive connection between employee wellness and business performance. On June 6 we'll hear perspectives on the outlook for the evolution of healthcare in the wake of sweeping changes including the pandemic, demographic change in the workforce, and other societal shifts; the impact and pace of tech-enabled transformation in the healthcare sector; the convergence of industries resulting in blurring boundaries of the healthcare “ecosystem”; and what all of this means for board oversight of talent and human capital strategy.

There's been lots of talk about hospital margins over the last few years, with recent discussion about how margins have improved. However, as data from this week's Gist Weekly newsletter shows, not all margins are made equal. There's large disparities between the margins of highest and lowest performing health systems. Gist says the best performers have embraced the shift to outpatient, managed the contract labor crisis, and are likely the dominant system in a geography with strong population growth. This gap will continue to widen: market leaders have the cash to reinvest in innovation & partnerships that can drive share. For innovators, this has a big impact on go-to-market strategy. Systems are are operating squarely in the red will be focused on returning to profitability, while market leaders will have more capital to deploy to innovation. #healthcare #digitalhealth #healthtech
