What the New CMS Staff Turnover Data Means for Nursing Homes

To make it easier for families and caregivers to evaluate the quality of nursing homes, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regularly publishes data on its “Care Compare” website. Anyone can go to the site and search for a facility to find COVID updates, quarterly quality scores, and information on inspections, penalties, ownership, and more.   Last month, CMS added additional metrics to how it scores the quality of nursing homes.

Beyond-Social-Media-Using-Natural-Language-Processing-To-Uncover-Real-World-Patient-Insights

It’s estimated that humans create a combined 2.5 quintillion bytes of data each day – and that around 90% of all data to ever exist was created in just the last few years. As difficult as it is to ignore the massive impact that connected technologies and social media have had on the way we experience our world, it’s somehow even more challenging to fully grasp the scale of it.

Why a Focus on Behavioral Health is Key to Improving Quality Measures

Since the passage of the Medicare Improvements for Patients & Providers Act in 2008, the U.S. healthcare system has been moving towards value-based care (VBC) which encourages health providers to improve care quality by reimbursing them based on successful outcomes rather than individual medical services. The overarching goal of VBC is to improve the patient experience, improve population health, and reduce per capita health costs. As part of this VBC model, hospitals and health systems

Analysis: The Role of Compact Systems in Today’s Ultrasound Market

Much of the focus in the ultrasound market in the last few years has been on the handheld market. This is justified, considering its role in the response to the COVID-19 pandemic and the spate of innovation in the sector, both in terms of new product releases and partnerships.  As a result, there is less mention of the other ultrasound product segments, especially the compact market. However, the compact market has also been active, with the release of Fujifilm SonoSite’s SonoSite LX in February

Extraordinary advances in technology have opened up previously unthinkable possibilities for the healthcare industry and improvements in patient care. Electronic health records (EHRs) are one of many health IT advancements in recent years, and they prove to have a significant impact on both providers and patients alike. While an EHR optimizes workflow efficiencies for providers, it also enables a more comprehensive view of a patient’s health. By pulling together data points and health

Is Empathy The Key to Healthcare Collections in 2022?

As we enter into the third year of the global health emergency, the impact on healthcare continues to evolve. With the ever-changing landscape, comes an opportunity to reflect, learn, and adapt to the times. Throughout the pandemic, COVID-19’s impact on hospital entities has not been specific to clinical care – it has rippled through the institution to every level, including revenue cycle management (RCM).  While RCM and collections once had a negative connotation, the pandemic has presented
