Connected Care Technology

How Connected Care Technology Can Transform the Provider Experience Northwell Health is leveraging advanced connected care technologies, including AI, to alleviate administrative burdens and foster meaningful interactions between providers and patients. While healthcare technology has revolutionized traditional care delivery models, it has also inadvertently created barriers, increasing the administrative workload and distancing providers from their patients. Dr. Michael Oppenheim, Senior Vice President of Clinical Digital Solutions at Northwell Health, highlighted this challenge during the Connected Health 2024 virtual summit, using a poignant illustration published a decade ago in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The image portrays a physician focused on a computer with their back to a patient and family, emphasizing how technology can inadvertently shift attention away from patient care. Reimagining Technology to Enhance Provider-Patient Connections To prevent technology from undermining the patient-provider relationship, healthcare organizations must reduce the administrative burden and enhance connectivity between patients and care teams. Northwell Health exemplifies this approach by implementing innovative solutions aimed at improving access, efficiency, and communication. 1. Expanding Access Without Overloading Providers Connected healthcare technologies can dramatically improve patient access but may strain clinicians managing large patient panels. Dr. Oppenheim illustrated how physicians often need to review extensive patient histories for every interaction, consuming valuable time. Northwell Health addresses this challenge by employing mapping tools, propensity analyses, and matching algorithms to align patients with the most appropriate providers. By connecting patients to specialists who best meet their needs, providers can maximize their time and expertise while ensuring better patient outcomes. 2. Leveraging Generative AI for Chart Summarization Generative AI is proving transformative in managing the immense data volumes clinicians face. AI-driven tools help summarize patient records, extracting clinically relevant details tailored to the provider’s specialty. For instance, in a pilot at Northwell Health, AI successfully summarized complex hospitalizations, capturing the critical elements of care transitions. This “just right” approach ensures providers receive actionable insights without unnecessary data overload. Additionally, ambient listening tools are being used to document clinical consultations seamlessly. By automatically summarizing interactions into structured notes, physicians can focus entirely on their patients during visits, improving care quality while reducing after-hours charting. 3. Streamlining Team-Based Care Effective care delivery often involves a multidisciplinary team, including primary physicians, specialists, nurses, and social workers. Coordinating communication across these groups has historically been challenging. Northwell Health is addressing this issue by adopting EMR systems with integrated team chat functionalities, enabling real-time collaboration among care teams. These tools facilitate better care planning and communication, ensuring patients receive coordinated and consistent treatment. Dr. Oppenheim emphasized the importance of not only uniting clinicians in decision-making but also involving patients in discussions. By presenting clear, viable options, providers can enhance patient engagement and shared decision-making. The Path Forward: Balancing Technology with Provider Needs As healthcare continues its digital transformation, connected care technologies must prioritize clinician satisfaction alongside patient outcomes. Tools that simplify workflows, enhance communication, and reduce administrative burdens are crucial for fostering provider buy-in and ensuring the success of health IT initiatives. Northwell Health’s efforts demonstrate how thoughtfully implemented technologies can empower clinicians, strengthen patient relationships, and create a truly connected healthcare experience.

Enhance Payer Patient Education

Data and Technology Strategies Enhance Payer Patient Education Analytics platforms, omnichannel engagement tools, telehealth, and other technological advancements have become essential in driving successful, enhanced payer patient education. Cathy Moffitt, MD, a pediatrician with 15 years of experience in the pediatric emergency department and now the senior vice president and Aetna chief medical officer at CVS Health, understands the critical role of patient education. “Education is empowerment. It is engagement. It is very critical to making patients more equipped to handle their healthcare journey,” Moffitt said in an episode of Healthcare Strategies. “Even overseeing a large payer like Aetna, I still believe tremendously in health education.” Enhance Payer Patient Education For large payers, effective patient education begins with data analytics and a deep understanding of their member population. Through data, payers can identify key insights, including when members are most receptive to educational materials. “People are more open to hear you and to be educated and empowered when they need help right then,” Moffitt explained. Timing is crucial—offering educational resources when they’re most relevant to a member’s immediate needs increases the likelihood that the information will be absorbed and acted upon. Aetna’s Next Best Action initiative, launched in 2018, exemplifies this approach. Through this program, Aetna employees reach out to members with specific conditions, offering guidance on the next best steps for managing their health. By providing education at a time when members are most open to it, the initiative ensures that patient education is both timely and impactful. In addition to timing, payer data can shape patient education by providing insights into a member’s demographics, including race, sexual orientation, gender identity, ethnicity, and location. Tailoring educational efforts to these factors ensures that communication is accessible and resonates with members. To better connect with a diverse member base, Aetna has integrated translator services into its customer support and trained representatives on sensitivity to sexual orientation and gender identity. Additionally, updating the provider directory to reflect demographic data is crucial. When members see providers who share their language, culture, and experiences, they are more likely to engage with and retain the educational materials provided. “Understanding, in a multicultural and multifactorial way, who our members are and trying to help understand what they need…as well as understanding both acute and chronic illness from an actionability standpoint, where we can best engage to good effect as we reach out to people—that’s the cornerstone of our intent and our philosophy around how we scrub data,” Moffitt shared. With over 20 years in the healthcare industry, both as a provider and now in a payer role, Moffitt has observed key trends and identified strengths and weaknesses in patient education efforts. She noted that the most successful patient education initiatives have been in mental health and preventive care, with technology playing a crucial role in both areas. Patient education has significantly reduced the stigma around mental healthcare and highlighted the importance of mental wellness. Telemedicine has vastly improved access to care, particularly in mental health, Moffitt noted. In preventive care, more people are now aware of the benefits of cancer screenings, vaccines, wellness visits, and other preventive measures. Moffitt suggested that the increased use of home health visits and retail clinics has contributed to these improvements, particularly among Aetna’s members. Looking ahead, Moffitt predicted that customized engagement is the next frontier for patient education. Members increasingly want educational materials delivered in a personalized and streamlined manner that suits their preferences. Omnichannel engagement solutions will be vital in meeting this demand. While significant progress has been made in enabling members to receive educational materials through various channels such as email, text, and phone calls, Moffitt anticipates even more advancements in the future. “I can’t tell you exactly where we’re going to be in 10 years because I wouldn’t have been able to tell you 10 years ago where we are now, but we will continue to respond and meet the demands with the technological commitments that we’re making,” Moffitt said.

All website pages have a purpose, whether that purpose is to drive further clicks, qualify visitors, provide a solution, or even a mix of all of those things. Heatmaps and recorded user sessions allow you to see if your page is serving that purpose or going against it. What Is a Heatmap? Generally speaking, heatmaps are graphical representations of data that highlight value with color. On a website heatmap, the most popular areas are showcased in red (hot) and the least popular are in blue (cold). The colors range on a scale from red to blue. Heatmaps are an excellent method of collecting user behavior data and converting it into a deep analysis of how visitors engage with your website pages. It can analyze: That information will help you identify user trends and key into what should be optimized to up engagement. Setting up website heatmapping software is a great start to refining your website design process and understanding your users. When to Use Heatmaps The truth is that heatmaps can actually be invaluable when testing and optimizing user experiences and conversion opportunities. There are many times you should be using them. Redesigning Your Website Updating, or even upgrading, your website isn’t just a task on your to do list. Careful thought, attention, and creativity should be put into the revamp if you want it to be worth the time and resources. Heatmaps can help with studying your current design to identify what your visitors are engaging with and what they’re ignoring. You’ll be tapped into what makes your visitors tick so that you can build a site meant specifically for your unique audience. Analyzing Webpage Conversions Trying to figure out why certain pages aren’t converting the way you thought they would? Use a heatmap. You’ll be able to identify exactly what’s attracting attention and deduce why. The same goes for buttons and pages that are showing a higher rate of conversion than anticipated. By keying into the design, copy, and other elements that are working for you, you’ll know exactly how to optimize your under-performing webpages. Testing New Updates As your business grows and you develop new ideas, naturally you’ll want to test them. A/B testing allows you to measure and analyze visitor response to a project or design, but you can take it a step further with heatmapping. Leverage the data graph by examining exactly what captures your visitors’ attention. At the end of the testing period, you may be able to pull designs or elements that received high levels of engagement from the page that didn’t perform as well into the successful one. How To Analyze Visually Using the color-coded visualizations, you can read your webpage for engagement levels and attention “hot spots.” Where the map reads red, that’s where visitors are showing the highest points of interactivity. Blue reflects low numbers. You can spot design issues or opportunities to move buttons, forms, and the like with a visual read. Data Points Reviewing raw data tables will give you more specific insights into your page’s performance. You can examine HTML elements and pixel locations of clicks to really understand what’s drawing people in. You can even filter your clicks and views in order of popularity with certain software. This takes the guessing out of your redesign and testing efforts. Tableau has instant, real-time reporting in place for users looking for actionable insights.

Impact of Generative AI on Workforce

The Impact of Generative AI on the Future of Work Automation has long been a source of concern and hope for the future of work. Now, generative AI is the latest technology fueling both fear and optimism. AI’s Role in Job Augmentation and Replacement While AI is expected to enhance many jobs, there’s a growing argument that job augmentation for some might lead to job replacement for others. For instance, if AI makes a worker’s tasks ten times easier, the roles created to support that job could become redundant. A June 2023 McKinsey report highlighted that generative AI (GenAI) could automate 60% to 70% of employee workloads. In fact, AI has already begun replacing jobs, contributing to nearly 4,000 job cuts in May 2023 alone, according to Challenger, Gray & Christmas Inc. OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, estimates that 80% of the U.S. workforce could see at least 10% of their jobs impacted by large language models (LLMs). Examples of AI Job Replacement One notable example involves a writer at a tech startup who was let go without explanation, only to later discover references to her as “Olivia/ChatGPT” in internal communications. Managers had discussed how ChatGPT was a cheaper alternative to employing a writer. This scenario, while not officially confirmed, strongly suggested that AI had replaced her role. The Writers Guild of America also went on strike, seeking not only higher wages and more residuals from streaming platforms but also more regulation of AI. Research from the Frank Hawkins Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise indicates that GenAI might disproportionately affect women, with 79% of working women holding positions susceptible to automation compared to 58% of working men. Unlike past automation that typically targeted repetitive tasks, GenAI is different—it automates creative work such as writing, coding, and even music production. For example, Paul McCartney used AI to partially generate his late bandmate John Lennon’s voice to create a posthumous Beatles song. In this case, AI enhanced creativity, but the broader implications could be more complex. Other Impacts of AI on Jobs AI’s impact on jobs goes beyond replacement. Human-machine collaboration presents a more positive angle, where AI helps improve the work experience by automating repetitive tasks. This could lead to a rise in AI-related jobs and a growing demand for AI skills. AI systems require significant human feedback, particularly in training processes like reinforcement learning, where models are fine-tuned based on human input. A May 2023 paper also warned about the risk of “model collapse,” where LLMs deteriorate without continuous human data. However, there’s also the risk that AI collaboration could hinder productivity. For example, generative AI might produce an overabundance of low-quality content, forcing editors to spend more time refining it, which could deprioritize more original work. Jobs Most Affected by AI AI Legislation and Regulation Despite the rapid advancement of AI, comprehensive federal regulation in the U.S. remains elusive. However, several states have introduced or passed AI-focused laws, and New York City has enacted regulations for AI in recruitment. On the global stage, the European Union has introduced the AI Act, setting a common legal framework for AI. Meanwhile, U.S. leaders, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, have begun outlining plans for AI regulation, emphasizing the need to protect workers, national security, and intellectual property.

As AI continues to evolve, its impact on the workforce will be profound and multifaceted, requiring careful consideration and regulation to ensure it benefits society as a whole.
