As the pace of innovation and adoption in healthcare runs at light speed, we now need to consider deployments and operationalizing tech as this lags today. Panelists will share challenges from a case use, data variability factors, how to build tools and clean data to train algorithms, workflows and what the best impact for healthcare is.

Focusing on health policy, telehealth and virtual care, blockchain and edge technologies, ConV2X 2021 is the premier destination community identifying new and cost effective paths forward through real world evidence, strategy, operations, research & trends.

One of the most fascinating and important applications for blockchain in healthcare is the decentralization of identity and health data to support vaccination verification. While many approaches and technologies have been introduced, this panel will highlight critical principles of Privacy by Design and using W3C Verifiable Credentials (VCs) with blockchain to securely share health data controlled by individuals.

Global Health Passes: Impact on Standards, Interoperability and Economies

From LATAM, to Pakistan, to Nigeria to China, panelists tackle issues including barriers and solutions for mobile internet adoption, impact investing, partnership, social enterprise and national policies for eHealth. Speakers offer guidance on how to scale technology for end users, solve for manpower issues, connection flexibilities and offer uniform thinking for local successes.

Innovations in Virtual Healthcare: The Evolving Competitive Landscape Telehealth and Virtual Care – An International Perspective

Game changing new market entrants are rapidly expanding the marketplace with tech and new business models. Panelists will discuss how to drive better consumer experiences, cheaper with faster outcomes with the transformational impact of solutions across stakeholders, regulatory frameworks, data protection regulations, and local healthcare systems.

NewCos - Better, Stronger, Faster

Are we headed for a capitated risk based model? How will this impact telehealth expansion through policy? How is policy supporting the use of new technology in health care and how important are these changes? What is the impact of policy on privacy, interoperability and access to health data to support health care transformation? If the federal government is focused on advancing racial equity and support for underserved communities how is policy and practice changing to meet these goals?

Ensuring Healthcare Resilience & Transformation through Policy

A candid discussion including perspectives on the CONNECT for Health Act, Chose Home Care Act patient choice bill, HETS Act, Medicare Advantage, workforce issues and how Medicare is operating as a “dis-service” for telehealth.

Can EU initiatives inform US policy makers? The German Digital Healthcare Act is one of the first countries to reimburse digital healthcare solutions for patients. Doctors prescribe selected apps covered by public insurance, covering about 73 million citizens. What’s the selection process and cost?

Fraud and Credentialing in Telehealth and Medicine

Importance: This three-part study characterizes the widespread implementation of telehealth during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, giving us insight into the role of telehealth as we enter a stage of “new normal” healthcare delivery in the U.S.

Objective: The COVID-19 Telehealth Impact Study was designed to describe the natural experiment of telehealth adoption during the pandemic. Using a large claims data stream and surveys of providers and patients, we studied telehealth in all 50 states to inform healthcare leaders. 

Design, Setting, Participants: In March 2020, the MITRE Corporation and Mayo Clinic founded the COVID-19 Healthcare Coalition (C19HCC), to respond to the pandemic. We report trends using a dataset of over 2 billion healthcare claims covering over 50% of private insurance activity in the U.S. (January 2019-December 2020), along with key elements from our provider survey (July-August 2020) and patient survey (November 2020 - February 2021).

Main Outcomes and Measures: There was rapid and widespread adoption of telehealth in Spring 2020 with over 12 million telehealth claims in April 2020, accounting for 49.4% of total health care claims. Providers and patients expressed high levels of satisfaction with telehealth. 75% of providers indicated that telehealth enabled them to provide quality care. 84% of patients agreed that quality of their telehealth visit was good.

Results: Peak levels of telehealth use varied widely among states ranging from 74.9% in Massachusetts to 25.4% in Mississippi. Every clinical discipline saw a steep rise with the largest claims volume in behavioral health. Provision of care by out-of-state provider was common at 6.5% (October-December 2020). Providers reported multiple modalities of telehealth care delivery. 74% of patients indicated they will use telehealth services in the future.

Conclusions and Relevance: Innovation shown by providers and patients during this period of rapid telehealth expansion constitutes a great natural experiment in care delivery with evidence supporting widespread clinical adoption and satisfaction on the part of both patients and clinicians. The authors encourage continued broad access to telehealth over the next 12 months to allow telehealth best practices to emerge, creating a more effective and resilient system of care delivery.

A COVID-19 Telehealth Impact Study—Exploring One Year of Telehealth Experimentation

The focus is shifting from machines and technology back to the human condition. There is a new set of design principals where the patient and staff experience will be the center of (re)focus. What tech will enable better outcomes in the home and hospital environments?

Health Innovation and Architecture: What Future Environments Bring to Workers, Patients, Wellness and Outcomes

Undermining the credibility of science and government officials, massive variation for Big Tech companies and policies across countries, and fractioning within the medical community. How do we educate the public to keep science and politics separate? What are the strategies and tactics to employ – and how fast can we move to tactical deployments? What’s the “scientific tower of babel?
