6 Objectives Explore the realities of operating a connected care program. Identify some of the legal and regulatory barriers related to connected care. Answer your questions. Have some fun!
7 Back to School
8 CONNECTED CARE IS NEW AND INNOVATIVE Have I Got News for You
9 Connected Care is New!
10 GET TO YOUR TELEHEALTH DEMO QUICKLY Don t Jump the Gun
11 When You Have Guests Unfamiliar with Connected Care Start the conversation around an old fashion phone call!
12 Emergency Telephone Call Burn Remote Physician Description 83 year-old male Burned his lower leg yesterday while burning brush with gasoline. His burn looks to be about 0.5% TBSA. Wound is pink and moist with blistering. Patient has a history of diabetes and heart disease as well as mild dementia. I would like to treat him here and refer if there are any complications with healing.
13 Additional Conversation Burn Surgeon: Is his pain controlled and does there appear to be any signs or symptoms of cellulitis. Remote Dr.: His pain is controlled and he does not have any signs of cellulitis. His wound looks pink. Burn Surgeon: Does the wound blanch? Remote Dr.: It appears to blanch in the area of blister..
14
15 Case Summary TELEPHONE Same verbal communication No Visual.5% burn TBSA Pt. probably treated local and sent home. Big chance for infection If wound becomes infected two surgeries vs. one CONNECTED CARE Same verbal communication Couple Digital Pics 1.5% burn TBSA Pt. transferred to LVHN Burn Center No infection due to timely treatment One surgery next day discharged on day 5
16 Important Summary Points Connected Care provides a better assessment of the patient! Payor implications two surgeries vs. one and corresponding LOS differences. Think about the legal issues of mistreatment. MOST IMPORTANT think about the implications for the patient. Better health, better care, better cost.
17 SHOW ME THE MONEY SHOW ME A PRODUCTIVITY OFFSET HELP ME LOSE LESS MONEY The Battle of Connected Care
18 An Important Day in History
19 An Important Day in Telemedicine History
20 Medicare Reimbursement Medicare Telehealth Provisions S.2505 (Jeffords) and BIPA 2000 CBO estimated $150 million over 5 years
21 Medicare After 12+ Years
22 Medicare Reimbursement Reimbursement under a defined set of criteria Rural requirement may be the biggest issue at this time Applies equally across the continental U.S. Carve out for Store and Forward in Alaska and Hawaii Beginning to see other changes and additional carve out programs Total Joint Replacement Pilot 2 nd Generation ACOs
23 Medicaid Reimbursement If you have seen one Medicaid reimbursement program for connected care, you ve seen one program.
24 Commercial Insurance Reimbursement Competition Legislative Mandates Parity in Payment
25 Using Technology to Lose Less $$$
26 CROSS STATE LICENSURE Will it Ever be Easy for Connected Care?
27 An Interesting Observation on Interstate Licensure for Outpatient Telehealth
28 ONE OF THESE DAYS Someone will Eventually Challenge HIPAA
29 HIPAA vs. The Right Thing to Do
30 THE DONUT HOLE Understanding the Entire Picture
31 You Just Need to Zoom In on the Problem! Picture courtesy of Robert Schosser, MD, East Carolina University
32 NO! You Need to See the Entire Picture! Picture courtesy of Robert Schosser, MD, East Carolina University
33 CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR Know the Laws and Regulations
34 IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO Help Wanted
35 WHO YA GONNA CALL? Competing for Patients on the Same Platform
36 Deciding the Best Direct to Consumer Route
37 I M FROM THE GOVERNMENT AND I M HERE TO HELP Laws & Regulations that Result in Confusion
38 Four Examples The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act (EMTALA) Credentialing and Privileging Internet Prescribing in Pennsylvania
39 Telemedicine isn t so much about practicing medicine differently, it s about using cars differently. Jack Moncrief, MD University of Missouri Telemedicine Grand Rounds 10/30/98
40 In Conclusion Connected Care is still treated differently than in-person care. Reimbursement is still the big challenge. Watch out there is competition everywhere and from some unusual suspects. Keep you ears open and an eye peeled for legislation and regulation that can negatively impact what you are doing. And remember ONE PERSON CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
