India's healthcare sector is undergoing a digital revolution, with app-based services flourishing alongside traditional medical practices. This rapid growth, however, has come with a concerning rise in cyber security breaches, exposing sensitive patient data. Medical data breaches create significant dangers for patients fueling identity theft, fraud, and blackmail on the dark web. Adding on to this conversation with Digital Health News, I stressed the importance of strong data privacy regulations for healthcare startups: https://lnkd.in/guWVsHWw Thanks to Arti Ghargi and Digital Health News Digital Health News for featuring my contribution alongside other industry leaders. #Digitalhealth #triotree #technology #healthcare #datasecurity #patientcare #databreaches #digitalhealthnews #digitalhealthindia #dataprivacy TrioTree Technologies Pvt Ltd

Unlocking Healthcare Interoperability: Overcoming EMR Barriers for Operational Excellence The healthcare industry is at a pivotal crossroads. Recent developments in EMR interoperability—such as the widespread adoption of the FHIR (Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources) standards and the implementation of the 21st Century Cures Act's interoperability and information blocking rules—are setting the stage for a more connected and efficient healthcare ecosystem. However, significant roadblocks remain. Some of the largest EMR vendors have built proprietary systems that limit seamless data exchange. These closed platforms and lack of standardized APIs not only stifle innovation but also hinder healthcare providers from accessing comprehensive patient information. This fragmentation leads to increased administrative burdens and can adversely affect patient care. For healthcare tech-enabled service providers like #Neolytix, improving autonomous processing of operations is a core mission. Interoperability is not just a technical challenge for us—it's a fundamental requirement to enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and improve patient outcomes. Autonomous processing relies heavily on the ability to access and integrate data from various sources effortlessly. When data is siloed, the potential for automation and innovation is significantly diminished. The importance of breaking down these barriers cannot be overstated. By advocating for open standards and interoperability, we can: - Enhance Patient Care: Provide healthcare professionals with complete and accurate patient information, leading to better diagnosis and treatment. - Reduce Administrative Burdens: Streamline operations by automating routine tasks, allowing staff to focus more on patient care. - Foster Innovation: Enable new technologies and services to integrate seamlessly, driving the industry forward. At Neolytix, we're committed to navigating these challenges by leveraging cutting-edge technology and pushing for greater transparency and collaboration in the industry. We're working diligently to improve autonomous processing in healthcare operations, ensuring that the benefits of interoperability are fully realized. It's time for all stakeholders—EMR vendors, healthcare providers, policymakers, and tech innovators—to come together to overcome these obstacles. By doing so, we can unlock the full potential of healthcare interoperability and build a system that truly serves everyone's best interests. Join us in advocating for a more connected and efficient healthcare future. Let's work together to break down the barriers to interoperability and drive meaningful change in the industry. #HealthcareLeadership #HealthcareCFO #HealthcareCOO #HealthcareCEO #HealthcareOperations #HealthcareInteroperability #HealthTech #HealthcareInnovation #Neolytix

Oracle Health announced plans to launch a next-generation EHR platform in 2025, incorporating advanced cloud and AI capabilities. This new EHR will feature Oracle's clinical AI agent, voice-activated navigation, and Health Data Intelligence, which integrates patient data from over 300 sources to enhance clinical workflows and improve patient outcomes. The platform aims to replace traditional EHRs, which often dictate rigid workflows, with a more dynamic system that allows for personalized care plans. Oracle Health emphasizes that the new EHR is a complete reinvention rather than an upgrade of the previous Cerner system. Additionally, Oracle plans to become a Qualified Health Information Network to facilitate standardized data sharing across the healthcare ecosystem. Executives at Oracle also unveiled new cloud applications to improve patient management and streamline front-office operations, reinforcing the company's commitment to enhancing healthcare accessibility and data utility while addressing interoperability challenges in the industry.

An integrated EHR and RCM solution can make all the difference for independent healthcare practices, since much of the complexity they face lies within reimbursements. athenahealth’s comprehensive suite of EHR, RCM, and Patient Engagement solutions is a crucial tool for organizations to optimize and improve financial performance, shift to value-based care, automate administrative tasks, and enhance interoperability. Our chief product officer Paul Brient recently spoke with EHRIntelligence about athenahealth’s integrated EHR offering, which earned the 2024 Best in KLAS Overall Physician Practice Vendor award. “Just like physicians cure patients, we cure the complexity problem and make it so that the physicians can focus on delivering care … not deal with all the complex regulations and how to get paid and how to stay compliant,” he emphasized.

> Medicare (CMS) proposes a payment model for physicians to interact with patients at the time and place of their choosing This proposal is revolutionary even though it is hidden in the (boring) physician fee schedule. It will move us towards patient centered care where patients can get virtual care and digital care as core parts of their care plan and healthcare workers will be reimbursed for doing this. Today's payment models are based on physician time spent with the patient. In some cases, there is a minimum 20-30 minute time limit before the physician can be paid. So answering my call, my email and my text may not be in the physician's financial interest. As a result, physicians are not incentivized to use technology to address patient needs because they get paid for the amount of time they spend with the patient. In a bold and surprising move, CMS is proposing introducing three new HCPCS codes to allow physicians to bill for helping patients: 1. GPCM1: Advanced primary care management services provided by clinical staff and directed by a physician. 2. GPCM2: Advanced primary care management services for a patient with multiple (two or more) chronic conditions 3. GPCM3: Advanced primary care management services for a patient that is a Qualified Medicare Beneficiary with multiple (two or more) chronic conditions expected to last at least 12 months These are not based on the amount of time spent with the patient but based on providing certain services. In another surprise move, CMS is finally allowing nurse practitioners and physician assistants to order and bill these services. This welcome move will unburden physicians and enable other healthcare workers to play a bigger role in patient care. Finally CMS is also proposing reimbursement for some behavioral health treatments using FDA-approved devices. I believe this is the beginning of digital treatments becoming a core part of the care plans. I've said this before and I'll repeat it. I know our government and especially Medicare gets a lot of disdain. But I'm constantly impressed by how they are innovating to allow patients to get care in the manner they want, and at the time and place that is convenient to them. I'm looking forward to the future where patients and physicians can interact via frequent, short digital interactions than always going into the office for 30 minute appointments. And where virtual and digital care is an important part of a patient's care plan.
