**Thank you for your interest. This session is currently full.**

The roles in our healthcare organizations are becoming more complex and the job knowledge needed to complete the EHR/EMR documentation and workflows increases constantly. Our teams live in a constant state of change as the capabilities of the software grow and evolve to meet the business needs. At the same time, organizations are being driven to streamline training touch points and reduce training contact hours while increasing patient care. The reliable instructor led training model utilized by the healthcare organization's IT department struggles to meet the current scale of required learning in the digital age. Our staff is more geographically dispersed and requires more training than ever before. The classroom must evolve to meet these challenges. What challenges do you face and what opportunities have you discovered implementing digital learning? How are you and your peers leveraging modern learning techniques? Where does training modernization fit in your 3-5 year plan and does it warrant greater consideration? Learning Objectives 1) Review the advantages of digital learning. 2) Compare learning strengths of each by delivery method. 3) Discuss the challenges facing healthcare training departments.

Abstract

Today’s CIO is in a position to serve broadly; they must have strategies in place to address the needs of their community. This goes beyond the partnership with their board and leadership; they must convene and motivate multi-disciplinary internal teams that are focused on improving care and consumer (patient, member, employee) quality of life as well as reducing the cost of care. The University of Maryland Medical System (UMMS) faces unique state requirements associated with Maryland’s all-payer system as well as the requirements of the Medicare Shared Savings Program. UMMS will share their journey and lessons learned for the executive leaders tasked with supporting population health management.

Learning Objectives

1. Identify opportunities where CIOs can serve and lead as their organizations shift from a fee-for-service to a value-based care reimbursement model
2. Classify lessons learned into actionable steps that will support population health management activities for your patients and community
3. Identify the five key dimensions of a value-based care maturity model and how to apply these measures locally
4. Understand how CIO leadership can influence each of the VBC maturity model dimensions and bring about needed change management

In order to deliver value-based, patient-centric healthcare within a community and for all roles in a healthcare organization to function effectively, it is vital to maintain access to a longitudinal view of patient data. Organizations need to collect patient data from multiple sources to provide a full picture of patient health, identify gaps in care, and recognize opportunities for intervention in a timely manner. However, patient data can be disjointed and can reside across many different systems. These systems often do not talk to each other or share data, and changes to a patient record in one system don’t carry over to another system. It can be challenging for health systems to connect to hundreds of ambulatory and acute care systems to create a holistic view of patient data needed for care coordination, clinical decision-making, Release of Information requests, reporting, analytics, and other workflow requirements. During this presentation, explore the challenges organizations face when gathering actionable data from disparate systems and identify the benefits that can be achieved through an organized, normalized, and consolidated view of the patient health record. Options for achieving a longitudinal view between systems will also be examined. Finally, learn from a major health system how they have achieved this consolidated view and what the results have been. Learning Objectives:

• Discuss the challenges of gathering data from disparate systems
• Identify the benefits to hospitals, health systems, and their patient when a holistic view of a patient’s health record is available
• Explain options to achieve a longitudinal view across all systems

Healthcare organizations typically perform privacy and security risk assessments in silos, managing them in different tools that may include Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, rudimentary survey tools, or custom-built applications. The current process and tools are duplicative, ineffective and result in additional cost to the organization in terms of time and resources. Additionally, it slows down the process of resolving control deficiencies and compliance gaps, leaving the organization susceptible to greater levels of risk for longer periods of time. Learning Objectives During this session, we will discuss the value of a centralized database for managing all data related to risk assessments, findings, and remediation actions and a single system to manage workflow steps required to complete associated business processes. Participants will be invited to talk about the process and tools they currently use to perform risk assessments and provide feedback on potential new software-driven solutions.

To tap into the power of text message-based outreach, Park Nicollet, part of the Minnesota-based HealthPartners system, launched a text message appointment reminder program to help new parents more closely adhere to the AAP-recommended schedule for well-child visits. Six months after launch, the one-month average gap between recommended visit date and actual visit date for patients 0 to 3 years was halved. In the two years after implementation, the number of yearly well-child visits increased by 13% across all HealthPartners facilities. In this webinar, a doctor and program administrator from Park Nicollet will share insights and best practices about implementing and optimizing a patient texting platform, as well as some unexpected benefits from their experience over the last three years. Learning Objective #1 Evaluate the drivers behind a text-based patient engagement strategy for practices and hospitals. Learning Objective #2 Review key performance indicators—like number of appointments, no-show rate and program enrollment—to understand what to measure before and after deployment to gauge the program’s success. Learning Objective #3 Gain an understanding of how a text-first approach to patient engagement can be deployed for reducing readmissions, increasing adherence to care plans and improving HEDIS scores.

As the application landscape inevitably grows more complex and cost pressures continue to rise, it is imperative for IT leadership to prioritize on Application Portfolio Optimization (APO) as a strategic initiative. APO is a set of application cost, count, and risk reduction activities to reduce operational spend and application portfolio complexity. APO is not new to IT, but implementing it well and sustaining this practice past the initial exercise can be challenging for organizations. Mount Sinai Health System has embarked on their APO journey as part of the overall Application Portfolio Management (APM) initiative and would like to share our experiences on the approach, challenges, success criteria, value, and governance process to maintain this effort.
