October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month—an important time to remember to get preventive care screenings. LMI is proud to be a part of promoting preventive care and improving health equity through our work in value-based purchasing with federal agencies. Value-based purchasing improves health equity by incentivizing providers to promote preventive care, improving the outcomes for patients and resulting in lower lifetime healthcare costs. 👉 Read about how value-based programs open new pathways to equity in healthcare in our Innovative Advancements for More Equitable Healthcare blog post: https://hubs.ly/Q02Rk9Nv0 // #PeoplePoweringPossible #BreastCancerAwareness #HealthEquity //

At University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust patients with lung cancer were previously booked into a 12-weekly check-up scan, with a face-to-face follow-up appointment to receive the results. 🏥 Now, clinicians review the scans and only bring in patients with concerning results to discuss them. For patients with normal results, they text them with the news instead of making them travel. 💚 This simple change has helped patients avoid unnecessary trips and gives clinicians more time for those who need it most. ⭐ This is saving 3x hours per clinic, or 1,167 clinician hours, as well as 6,883 patient travel hours per year. 💫 #HealthcareInnovation #Accurx #PatientCare

At Fraser Health, we’re setting new standards in leveraging technology to enhance patient care and ensure sustainable operations amid growing demand. Here are some of our latest innovations: The Digital Twin is a virtual model of Fraser Health that uses a powerful algorithm to simulate and optimize our system for better health outcomes for patient groups. The Virtual Hospitalist model at Eagle Ridge Hospital allows physicians working remotely to review patient charts, order treatments and document insights, which helps physicians and care teams in the hospital to focus on admitting new patients and providing hands on care. An AI-powered program is used by medical staff during colonoscopies to detect small, hard-to-see polyps. This system, trained on thousands of images, highlights suspicious lesions, allowing them to be removed, which significantly reduces future colorectal cancer risk. We have exciting projects ahead.

In today's evolving healthcare landscape, I firmly believe that empowering patients and caregivers with comprehensive knowledge and context is essential. By ensuring they make informed decisions, we are witnessing significantly better treatment responses. This success is not simply because we, as doctors, are adhering to patient preferences. Instead, it stems from the fact that patients and caregivers are well-informed about why a particular treatment path has been chosen and what outcomes to anticipate. This approach fosters a collaborative environment where everyone involved understands the rationale behind medical decisions. When patients and their families are equipped with the right information, they can engage more meaningfully in their care journey, leading to improved satisfaction and outcomes. At our practice, we prioritize transparent communication and education, allowing us to build trust and achieve remarkable results in patient care. Join us in this movement towards informed healthcare, where understanding and collaboration pave the way for better health and well-being. #EmpoweredPatients #PatientEducation #TreatmentSuccess #TransparentCommunication #HolisticHealth #KnowledgeIsPower #cansurVive #TumorTamer #DrRajeevVijayakumar #Oncology #Cancer

In this Breaking Down Health Care conversation, John Hennessy, MBA, and Michael Kolodziej, MD, examine how to measure quality in health care and the current challenges with the existing methods. "As we think about quality, from a patient perspective, we hope that the medical care that's being delivered is of high quality, but things like wait times and out-of-pocket costs contribute to that quality equation for patients... Those are both elements that we have to be working on in health care to deliver what patients might expect to be calling high quality," said Hennessy.
