  3. Healthcare Will Transform Must

  4. Why Healthcare Must Transform • Priorities are changing: • People will embrace health as a personal attribute • Cost to the individual will be an important driver • Commoditization will occur at multiple levels • Quality will be a given – Efficiency will be the rule • Individuals will own and manage all of their data • Trusted health information will be the new currency • Access will be defined through engagement

  5. Re-Envisioning Healthcare • Health care becomes personalized according to an individual’s needs and values – “Precision Health” • Still evidence-based care… but individualized for me • Quality for an ‘n of 1’+ safety and prevention of harm • Control shifts from health systems to the individual • Individuals own the entirety of their health information • That record is agnostic to the source and inclusive of all data generated by providers and by the individual • Access is defined by whom patients choose to help: • Support health promotion, prevention and well being • Navigate complex healthcare decisions

  6. Innovations Driving Healthcare Change • Team-based care - PCMH(VA calls it PACT) • Moving from encounters to sustained relationships • Transactional coherent health information • Health Management Platforms vs EMRs • Data big and small • Relationship-based care is Connected health

  7. Connected Health Connected Health is about sustaining the relationship between patient and healthcare system beyond the traditional bricks and mortar walls and thus empowering patients to manage their own health 7

  14. The Health Care Reality Health care is an information business • It’s increasing - and increasingly complicated • Most of which patients can’t access …or understand The current Healthcare industry thrives on information asymmetry

  15. Changing Dynamics of Healthcare • Patients engage (us) as partners in their care • We focus on preventive health • We focus on chronic disease management • We focus on patient outcomes • They demand convenient, local and timely care • They demand complementary/alternative care • They demand readily availableinformation • including the ability to contribute to that data set

  16. What Will Healthcare of the Future Be? Healthcare is an information business Coherent and transactional - Logistics and scale Data big and small – not just in the EMR Asinformation asymmetry is reduced then Commoditizationaccelerates - the role of AI Managing data and information exchange is the new value proposition in healthcare Connected Health is the platform for this
