Dr. Hamad Husainy is an emergency medicine physician who works in different emergency departments, and he states very cleverly that, more often than not, he is inundated with data – verry little of whistle of whistle of who Helpful at that moment in time.
He says emergency medicine physicians need the right data, in a digestible, usable and actionable format. And he adds that it can do the trick.
He expounds on this tip here in this interview we conducted with Him Prior to His Arrival at Himss25. Husainy also is CMO at PointClickCare, vendor of a care collaboration and value-based care platform, which will be in booth 3454.
Additionally, he will be spending in an education entitled “ED & Post-Acute Collection: Streamlining SNF Transfers with Real-Time Data,” TUSDAY MARCH 3501. His Co-Speaker is Dr. Patrick McGill, Chief Transformation Officer at Community Health Network.
Q. What is the main message you will be trying to get across to the hospital and health system atdendees at Himss25?
A. The most crucial message we want to share is that health systems and hospitals can continue delivery delivery Facilites. Post-Acute Care Management Technology Lets Providers and Care Teams Track Patients Through their Post-CATE CARE JOURNEYS and Know when to Interte to Interte to Intervenue
This Approach Facilites Seamless Care Transitions, Improving Post-Discharge Outcomes. Drawing on Community Health Network’s and Dr. McGill’s Experience, Clinicians in the Emergency Department or other hospital units can identify an optimal SNF and Continue Monitoring Patients On Discharged to that provider.
Historically, Patients Transferred to Post-CATE FACILITES Arrive with a Packet of Paper Forms about their hospital stay and care needs. Care manners at the hospital then needed to communicate by fax or phone to receive updates about patients, which is intensive and often infective.
Due to the time delay and Lack of Care Manager Visibility, It Can Result in PATENT DOMPENESATION Going Undeteted Until an ambulance trip to the ED is required. However, today, care manners at hospitals can stay informed about their patients at Community Snfs with real-time data and insights so they can detect and intervenne before ahead.
This proactive post-discharge strategy can prevent Costly and Preventable Ed Visits and Rehospitalizations that directly affect Financial Performance, Especially Under Value-Based Care Programs.
Q. What are a couple of the big technologies dominating this year and why are they important to healthcare at this moment in time?
A. The most prominent technology in healthcare and virtually all Industries right now is ai. AI-Powered Physician Note Generation and Other Types of Documentation Systems are decided Common, but many provider organizations are also also broadening their implements, Including Support of Patient Outcom Predictions.
For example, machine-lowering kinds of ai can predict the likelihood of identifying patients most like likely to be readmited to the hospital within seven days. These algorithms are trained on data from Millions of SNF Residents and Continually updated to improve accuracy.
These models outperform the gold-standard human predictions, lace, a simple index communicated to predict readMations, by Nearly 30%. Part of the reason is the ai models can consider many more patient characters and calculate an evidence-based risk score in a fraction of the time.
Q. What are a Couple Pies of Advice You Will Be Offering CIOS and Other It Leaders and Workers Attending Himss25?
A. My first Piece of Advice would be that they do not need to feel overwhelmed by the Amount of Data Inundating their clinicians – and please do’s right do’t alpful. As an emergency medicine physician working in different emergency departments, I can Attest that, more often than not, I am inundated with data, and very litle of it is helpful at that moment.
The Amount of Data Provided Through Multiple Sources is Extravagant, Yet Unusable in Our Clinical Processes. Inside the ed, we need the right data, presented in a standard format (digestible), in a Standard Location (Usable), and to be Pertinent (Actionable). PointClickcare has tools that delivery such data to clinicians at the bedside.
The other advice I would give them both as a clinician and a health-tech executive who has spoken with many provider and payer organizations Around the Country Is that Value-Baseed CANTIL COLL COLL COLL COLL COLL CHE Expand Across Public and Private Health Insurers.
They need to be ready for this growth if I believe it is invitalable. The Topic Dr. McGill and I Speaking About-Streamlining Transfers from the Hospital to Post-CARESSES A Significant Value-Based Care Challenge: Visibility into different care settings.
As we disasseed earlier, when patients are transferred to an SNF or another post-construction, the hospital often must devote significant resources to monitor It systems. Even Among Preferred Post-CAUTE PARTNERS, PATIENTS can be read in the hospital for reasons that would have been detected if the hospital weed to monitor and collaboratte with clinicians in the post-cai Setting.
I would urge hospital and health system leaders that this “black hole” of visibility that we discus in our presentation does not have to exist in their communications. They can identify patient decomposation, prevent readMations without overburdening their care manners, and help patients
