Navigating a Perfect Storm Moment: Healthcare Labor Shortages and the Potential of the Digital Workforce

It remains to be seen when COVID-19 will finally be in the rearview mirror. Each day there are fresh headlines about new waves of infections popping up around the world. My physician said he expects vaccine boosters to become a permanent part of the annual flu shot regimen.  The healthcare industry has been under nonstop pressure since February 2020. What began as an explosion of patient demand for urgent care resources, ventilators, and ICU beds evolved into multiple, regional infection

Blockchain Privacy Innovations Can Let Healthcare Focus On What Matters

The Covid-19 pandemic has highlighted the major impact that data has on our lives, especially when it comes to healthcare. From track-and-trace systems to digital Covid vaccination passports, to patient data, to the medical supply chain, there has been a huge increase in data collected by governments and healthcare providers. This massive increase in healthcare-related data collection brings with it significant privacy concerns. Now, more than ever, data protection must be front and center in

While randomized clinical trials are considered the gold standard for establishing the safety and efficacy of prescription medications, and the clinical findings verified from the trial inform the label on the approved therapy, the overall utility of such trials is

COVID-19: As Omicron Variant Spreads, Let’s Not Repeat Rookie Mistakes

No one should be surprised there’s another COVID variant on the loose, and yet seemingly, everyone is. The variant, named Omicron (the fifteenth letter in the Greek alphabet), was first reported to the World Health Organisation (WHO) by South Africa on November 24th. Unlike its name would suggest, Omicron is the seventh COVID-19 variant of concern—but a pandemic-fatigued global public could be forgiven for thinking it’s the twentieth.  Governments across the developed world have pushed

The Value of an Enterprise Active Data Archive Begins with Patient Safety

by Dr. Kel Pults, DHA, MSN, RN-BC, Chief Clinical Officer at MediQuant 12/27/2021 Leave a Comment

The Value of an Enterprise Active Data Archive Begins with Patient Safety

Patient safety is only possible with accurate and comprehensive medical records, and this includes those records available in the active archive. Despite the urgency, one of the biggest challenges in healthcare today is maintaining Longitudinal Records – one record per patient over time, across HIS systems, and among various facilities and treatments. That challenge is made even harder when old records are scattered and inaccessible.  Remember Paper Files? Twenty years ago, seeing the

Telehealth vs. Remote Patient Monitoring: Which Is Better for Your Patients?

by Jeff LeBrun, Optimize Health Chief Strategy Officer 12/21/2021 Leave a Comment

Telehealth vs. Remote Patient Monitoring: Which Is Better for Your Patients?

Are Remote Patient Monitoring (RPM) and telehealth the same thing? If virtual visits replace in-person visits, will that negatively impact my practice? Will I lose reimbursement and the in-person connection with patients? These are questions and concerns that we frequently hear as practices consider if a Remote Patient Monitoring program is right for their patients. What is Telehealth? Let’s start with definitions. RPM and telehealth are not the same thing. Telehealth is a very broad,

But relief is often hit-or-miss, and insoles that are customized traditionally include a very time-consuming process for patients. They often require lengthy office visits, multiple fit adjustments and even then, not always offering the right fit.  Fortunately, advancements in technology are changing the game. Software,
