SUMMARY:Rush Analytics for Modeling the Impact of Shelter in Place
DESCRIPTION:Bala Hota\, MD\, MPH\, VP & Chief Analytics Officer\, Rush University Medical Center. Dr. Hota shares the background of how Rush developed predictive models to track the COVID-19 spread across Illinois (one of the U.S. states with the most coronavirus cases) and in particular the impact of Illinois’ shelter-in-place policies. The state\, which has reported more than 19\,180 confirmed cases\, stretched the number of days over which cases double from every 2.1 days on March 22 to 7.9 days as of April 9. The implied “doubling rate” is a key indicator public health officials use to project the number of COVID-19 patients that hospitals can expect to see\, as well as how many doctors\, nurses\, beds\, ventilators and masks may be needed and when. The analysis by Rush tracked the growth rate from the day hot-spot states confirmed their 100th cases and found Illinois’ rate of doubling is taking longer than New York\, California and Washington state at this stage in its outbreak. Dr. Hota also shares how Rush is continuing to model the resulting impact on testing\, tracing\, and easing the state’s population back into daily activities.

SUMMARY:OSF HealthCare’s COVID-19 Digital Response
DESCRIPTION:Michelle Conger\, MSW\, Chief Strategy Officer\, OSF HealthCare and CEO\, Saint Gabriel Digital Health; Jennifer Junis\, RN\, MSN\, SVP\, OSF\, Saint Gabriel Digital Health; Becky Buchen\, SVP OSF Innovation; John Vozenilek\, MD\, FACEP\, VP & Chief Medical Officer\, OSF Innovation and Saint Gabriel Digital Health; and Melinda Cooling\, DNP\, MBA\, APN\, NEA-BC\, VP Advanced Practice\, Chief Clinician Executive\, Saint Gabriel Digital Health\, OSF Healthcare. \nMelinda Cooling DNP\, MBA\, APN\, NEA-BC\nJohn Vozenilek MD\nBecky Buchen\nJennifer Junis\, RN\, MSN\nMichelle Conger MSW\nIllinois reported the state’s first COVID-19 cases on March 10\, 2020. By March 16\, OSF Digital Health introduced an AI-enabled chatbot that screens individuals for the virus\, and connects symptomatic people to an operational COVID-19 Nurse triage hotline. A third digital connection offered a texting solution to provide guidance\, education and a symptom tracker for COVID-19. On April 11\, a state partnership was announced for the first OSF Pandemic Health Worker (PHW) program inclusive of eight pods across the state of Illinois that provides digital screening and delivers care kits to clients who enroll in the 16-day program from Chicago to Alton. OSF Digital Health\, in partnership with OSF Innovation\, delivered unique solutions with agility. Working with an OSF HealthCare partner\, the organization also launched the use of a new COVID-19 surveillance app that supports rapid decision making using machine-learning technology. Additionally\, another e-triage app risk stratifies patients\, identifying individuals at high risk for hospitalization. This allows OSF HealthCare to pinpoint those who could benefit from the PHW program. PHW clients that may have deteriorating symptoms can quickly be enrolled in the Acute COVID @ Home program with additional observation including blood pressure and pulse ox monitoring. The final opportunity realized with the Digital response is the launch of the OSF Digital Hospital at Home that allows the Ministry to decompress their hospitals for potential Pandemic surge needs.

SUMMARY:CHRISTUS and COVID-19 Testing
DESCRIPTION:Sam Bagchi\, MD\, Executive VP & Chief Clinical Officer\, CHRISTUS Health.  For months\, healthcare providers have been immersed in preparing for and responding to the situations created by COVID-19. But as some states begin to reopen\, and as government restrictions on pre-scheduled procedures are relaxed\, healthcare systems are beginning to consider how they might better serve their communities and operate successfully in a post-COVID world.  Join Dr. Bagchi as he talks about how CHRISTUS has worked to provide care safely to all patients\, including those with COVID-19 and those without\, in the U.S. and Latin America. CHRISTUS was one of the first in the country to provide point-of-care antibody testing in its hospitals\, and the system now is looking forward to what comes next. Dr. Bagchi covers what CHRISTUS is doing to provide COVID-safe care in the short term\, how CHRISTUS is reimagining care in a post-COVID world\, and what health systems should be preparing for when a COVID-19 surge is no longer a critical focus.

SUMMARY:Rapid Digital Health Transformation During COVID-19 Crisis and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:Sonia Samagh\, MD\, MBA\, National Clinical Lead for Digital Health\, OptumCare\, and John Kontor\, MD\, SVP Provider Technology Services\, Optum Advisory Services.  While we are in a period of crisis response and uncertainty today\, healthcare organizations must implement solutions that simultaneously drive rapid progress and ensure long-term benefit for all. The pivot to virtual care has changed the fabric of healthcare delivery. To set themselves up for success now and post-COVID-19\, healthcare providers needed to take a holistic approach to telehealth and digital health that accounted for how clinicians and patients interact with the new platforms and technologies. Drs. Samagh and Kontor discuss how they worked with more than 10\,000 providers over a two-month process\, creating a multidisciplinary “team of teams” to implement a broad-based digital health program\, bringing in diverse experience and expertise to drive decisions quickly\, and expanding remote access to millions of patients. They also share how they used service design to help staff overcome a quick learning curve\, accelerate implementation\, and drive adoption\, and how to build a digital health foundation that efficiently operationalizes health innovations and manages through ambiguity.

SUMMARY:Protecting Revenue Cycle During COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Brian Junghans\nJim Akimchuk\nJim Akimchuk\, VP\, and Brian Junghans\, VP\, Impact Advisors.  As healthcare providers have shifted focus to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic\, normal business operations have been interrupted causing significant financial pressures. While the underlying variables at some institutions are relatively consistent (e.g.\, the impact to non-COVID patient volumes)\, others are dramatically different (e.g.\, COVID-19 peak volumes by geography and local control measures). Jim and Brian take a look at a revenue cycle roadmap for early actions targeted at considerations for working in a remote workforce and care environment\, maintaining overall performance and ultimately structuring change to be positioned for the “new normal” that will come with the eventual recovery. \nSee also: CMS.gov

SUMMARY:The COVID-19 Pandemic and Our Nation’s Hospitals: What’s Next?
DESCRIPTION:Paul Keckley\, PhD\, Managing Editor\, The Keckley Report; and Michael T. Osterholm\, PhD\, MPH\, Director\, Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy (CIDRAP)\, the University of Minnesota.  Hospitals across the country have responded courageously and admirably as the nation’s public health servants to address and manage the international COVID-19 pandemic. \nMichael T. Osterholm PhD\, MPH\nPaul Keckley PhD\nCapacity management models have been critical to guide shelter-at-home policies; forecast demand for ICU beds\, ventilators\, personal protection equipment (PPE)\, and staffing; and alternate care sites have been designed and stood up as needed to handle the overflow. Now we are turning our efforts toward recovery\, rescheduling postponed procedures\, rolling out testing and contact tracing programs\, and juggling the financial impact of disrupted operations. Will there be another wave of infections in the fall or winter? Where are we with national vaccine development? What are we learning about the disease itself? What national care standards\, reimbursement guidelines\, or regulatory policies are needed to help us prepare? Join us for this thought-provoking discussion of alternative scenarios for health system strategy. \nSee also: \nLooking Ahead: The Pivot to Healthcare Politics and What to Expect\nLiving in a COVID-19 World Discussion

SUMMARY:Medically Necessary\, Time-Sensitive Procedure Decision-Making at University of Chicago Medicine
DESCRIPTION:Kiran Turaga\, MD\, MPH\, Associate Professor of Surgery & Director\, Surgical GI Cancer Program and Regional Therapeutics Program\, and Vivek Prachand\, MD\, Professor of Surgery & Director\, Minimally Invasive Surgery\, University of Chicago Medicine. The recent pandemic of COVID-19 created an incredible strain on health systems worldwide\, leading to postponements of elective surgeries. \nKiran Turaga MD\, MPH\nVivek Prachand MD\nSurgical treatment of non-COVID-19 related disease\, however\, still remains necessary.  Amid thoughts that “cancer doesn’t shelter at home” and when to proceed with medically necessary\, time-sensitive (MeNTS) procedures\, Drs. Turaga and Prachard address both the poorly understood association of time from cancer diagnosis to surgery as well as describe the scoring system developed at the University of Chicago to facilitate decision-making and triage procedures\, appropriately weighing patient risks with the ethical necessity of optimizing public health concerns. \nSee also: REDCAP-based MeNTS Worksheet

SUMMARY:Using Analytics to Improve Care Management
DESCRIPTION:Robert Crossey\, DO\, President\, and Francis R. Colangelo\, MD\, MS-HQS\, FACP\, VP and Chief Quality Officer\, Premier Medical Associates.  Improving care coordination for patients with multiple co-morbidities and chronic conditions is essential to increasing quality and reducing the total cost of care. \nRobert Crossey DO\nFrancis R. Colangelo MD\, MS-HQS\, FACP\nThese patients face unique challenges navigating the health system\, but also oftentimes synthesizing the advice of multiple physicians.  Drs. Crossey and Colangelo lead this 100-provider medical group in the greater Pittsburgh area associated with both UPMC and Allegheny Health\, and discuss how identifying gaps and variations in care in high-risk patients help determine the best courses of action for prevention.  They also discuss how the multidisciplinary\, analytical approach to transitional care\, medication adherence and disease management helped decrease readmission rates by more than 20% for patients with heart failure; improved engagement of patients with prediabetes and diabetes; and significantly improved in diabetes control bundle measures.

SUMMARY:The ‘Combat Fatigue’ Impact of COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Nancy Howell Agee\nCathy Jennings\, DNP\, RN\, ACNS-BC\, FNAP\nNancy Howell Agee\, President & CEO\, and Cathy Jennings\, DNP\, RN\, ACNS-BC\, FNAP\, Clinical Nurse Specialist\, Cardiac Surgery\, Carilion Clinic. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted healthcare workers in a manner that can be likened to “combat fatigue” given the unique circumstances in which this has played out in our nation’s hospitals. Nurses in particular have been affected by the change in professional roles they have assumed supporting the dramatic increase in intensive care patients\, the new and uncertain team dynamics due to new care environments\, and the extended duration of this disease progression. Even ICU- trained nurses are finding themselves battling feelings of anxiety\, inadequacy\, and depression due to the intensity and focus their jobs require during such stressful and uncertain times. Nancy explores this topic from her perspective as a nurse\, medical educator\, national AHA Board Chair\, and the President and CEO of Carillion Clinic\, a $ 2.2 billion nonprofit integrated healthcare organization with seven hospitals\, multi-specialty physician group\, Radford University Carilion (formerly Jefferson College of Health Sciences)\, and a joint ventured medical school with Virginia Tech.

SUMMARY:Current and Future Ethical Challenges of Vaccination for COVID-19
DESCRIPTION:Arthur Caplan\, PhD\, Drs. William F. and Virginia Connolly Mitty Professor and Founding Head of the Division of Medical Ethics\, NYU School of Medicine.  Many believe that the only solution to the COVID-19 plague is to find a vaccine.  Efforts to speed that discovery involve unprecedented investments of money\, involvement by hundreds of research teams and novel collaborations.  But the promise of a vaccine by the fall or even next year faces many ethical challenges including research ethics questions\, safety concerns\, efficacy questions\, public trust\, vaccine hesitancy\, mandates\, cost and distribution.  Dr. Caplan discusses all of these in this teleconference. \nSupplemental material: ‘Is Ordering Takeout Unethical?’ A Medical Ethicist Answers Some of the Most Common Moral Questions Around Coronavirus | If You Refuse to Distance\, You Should Bypass Care if You Get Ill \nThere is no presentation associated with this teleconference.

SUMMARY:Beyond the Crisis - Key Impacts of COVID-19 and Assessing the Path Forward
DESCRIPTION:Keith Shah\, PhD\, SVP Strategy & Growth\, and Sasha Preble\, Senior Director Strategy\, Growth & Transformation\, Optum Advisory Services.  The COVID-19 crisis has impacted nearly every facet of the healthcare industry. “Business as usual” has taken a back seat to rethinking the U.S. healthcare model going forward\, from delivery to financing. In our new reality\, key market forces are accelerating many trends and activities that had historically been slower to move\, such as digital transformation\, decisive action to lower total cost of care (TCOC)\, and the primacy of consumer decision-making. In this teleconference\, we posit the most significant post-crisis environmental features\, discuss how they create challenges and opportunities for industry players\, and offer strategies providers and payers can take to win in their respective markets.
