Notes de l'éditeur

  1. Notes for the Presenter: This deck sets out: the vision for Country Transformation, why investment in a broadband infrastructure is needed and how this involves the interconnection of infrastructure needed to support a number of e-Services, one of which is Health Global health trends show that developing countries have to deal with significant levels of both communicable and non-communicable diseases. Measures of the burden of illhealth show that many of the risk factors are associated with poverty. Poverty exacerbates illhealth and vice versa. In addition, health manpower is not where the burden is greatest Cisco’s point of view on Connected Health is that in focusing on connected health communities ICT can play a key role in meeting goals for both health and development. The path to Connected Health begins with understanding that health systems as a whole can be strengthened by investment in ICT, and then starting by improving public health systems and health knowledge, and then delivering telehealth, working towards Connected Hospitals and then creating a Connected Health Provider Community with Connected Health Consumer Communities seen as an increasingly important part of the Health System. The evolution of a Connected Health community involves addressing what functionality can be afforded. Working towards transformation, therefore, involves assessing the makeup of the socio-economic and health systems at country level and below, and then considering (and using appropriate case studies) what opportunities there are for making progress for connecting health organisations, health workers, citizens and communities.
  2. First and foremost, healthcare for all is a fundamental responsibility of government. It’s an essential economic function; after all, a healthy nation is a productive and competitive one. Healthcare has not only to be accessible and affordable, but it must also be responsive – to the specific, constantly-changing medical and clinical needs of patients, and to the broader demographic, social and cultural shifts which typify the modern world, and are more clearly defined in emerging economies than anywhere else.
  3. New technology is crucial to the successful delivery of modern healthcare services. Information and communications technology, or ICT, has proven to be a massive influence on growth, efficiency and innovation worldwide. ICT integration, in which once-disparate areas of infrastructure are unified and consolidated, is especially important. It is common for healthcare to be viewed as an expensive function, scattered inefficiently across different, discrete areas – general practice surgeries, local clinics, specialist consultancies and other points of delivery. And since today's advanced hospital networks typically run more than 300 applications, it can be costly to share data between healthcare professionals across a fragmented ICT infrastructure. The promise of healthcare integration concentrates the minds of governments, prompting them to focus on healthcare as a worthwhile and wide-ranging social and economic benefit. It is Cisco’s goal to make it easy and practical for healthcare professionals in emerging markets to share vital medical, clinical and patient information, in turn fostering a culture that perpetuates the idea of an integrated service, with the patient at its heart.
  4. The Solution Data available when patient comes to clinic Automation of electronic data collection & electronic health educational content for family visits Potential roll out to 60k Mobile Rural Health Workers Results Reduced time between data capture and analysis
  5. The key challenges for radiologists in current imaging workflows are the wasted time in tracking and locating referring physicians to communicate results, the inability to maintain a record of the results notification and acknowledgement interactions with referring physicians for regulatory compliance purposes, and the lack of collaboration tools and screen-sharing capabilities that limit the effectiveness of current interactions with referring physicians. Leading healthcare organizations have made large investments in Picture Archiving and Communication Systems (PACS) to enhance clinician productivity and to increase the effectiveness of using digital imaging to provide accurate and timely diagnosis of various conditions. PACS investments have been focused on optimizing the presentation, distribution, storage, and retrieval of patient images, but have not addressed the integration of physician-to-physician communication and collaboration into imaging workflows. Radiologists still largely rely on manual processes to communicate and collaborate with referring physicians. This not only affects radiologist productivity, but impacts patient safety and patient care. There is a growing need to simplify, streamline and enhance the timeliness of communications and collaboration between clinicians. The University of Wisconsin solution gives Radiologists the flexibility to communicate patient results to referring physicians using the most appropriate mode of communications, based on acuity of care, and criticality of the results and the patient. When radiologists need to communicate unexpected results to referring physicians, they no longer have to waste time making multiple calls or waiting for responses to pages to find the right clinician to communicate results. The Cisco Unified Presence Server presents the radiologist with a filtered list of clinicians that is relevant for that patient study, along with their presence, availability, and preferred mode of contact. One of the key sources of value from the solution is the ability to capture and store an auditable record of results communication and acknowledgements between radiologists and referring physicians. The ability to collaborate and share the same screen will also enhance radiologist and referring physician productivity. The solution will streamline the workflow by enabling radiologists to push specific images to referring physicians and share the same screen while they highlight the areas of interest. In addition, no patient images are transferred, which eliminates privacy and latency concerns.
  6. Cisco is committed to healthcare from our highest executive: " The prime drivers in health care are very similar to what drives other businesses - first, improving service to customers, second, cost reduction. Medical costs are growing almost out of control. Those organizations that can find a way to contain medical costs and provide a higher level of service are going to have a huge advantage. Cisco hopes to supply that advantage to its customers by consolidating health-care voice, video, and data on a single network." John Chambers, CEO, Cisco
  7. Ontario's northern sector, on the other hand, is often referred to as a province within a province. The area is roughly the size of Texas and California combined, yet it is home to fewer than 1.5 million residents. In such a sparsely populated land, healthcare providers constantly battle shortages of health professionals, distance barriers, isolation, escalating health care costs, and the demands of serving the diverse needs of distinct populations. Of course, serving an isolated population is a challenge for medical professionals. It is impractical for every specialty to represent itself in such a region, yet medical challenges in which time is a critical factor arise regularly. The Clinical Collaboration solution is a cost-effective, audio and videoconferencing system. As easy to use as dialing a telephone, it fosters improved communication among geographically dispersed users leading to improved productivity. Geographically dispersed isolated clinical experts can be called in on a case without having to travel, saving time, money and often lives. One of the mission critical services that OTN delivers over the Cisco Medical-Grade Network is Telestroke. Telestroke brings together videoconferencing and CAT scan Diagnostic Image Sharing over the network. Using this equipment, specialists around the province are on 24-hour call to assist hospitals in rural and remote areas. In the early hours of a stroke, doctors can use a drug to break down the blood clot and reverse the attack, but the same drug can also make a patient bleed to death. So doctors use OTN to reach experts quickly so that they can receive direction on how to properly administer the drug in the few hours that it can make a difference. OTN’s use of telemedicine saves the province of Ontario about Canadian $8 million each year in travel costs alone. OTN may also contribute to patients in Northern Ontario avoiding hospital visits entirely. Studies show that decreased access to medical care results in increased hospitalization rates. Such is the case for Northern Ontario, where hospitalization rates are 25 percent higher than the provincial average. Surveys show that more than 90 percent of patients who received telemedicine services were “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with the experience.
  8. The technology foundation for Connected Health is what we call a “Medical-Grade Network.” The Medical-Grade Network is designed to meet the key technology requirements for healthcare customers: to reduce the complexity of their ever-growing networks, and to lower the total cost of ownership of their network investments. Principles of MGN: No info are created/managed/transported manually – electronic devices + nw Info are stored as they are created: nw + storage systems Info are coherent, not redudant/duplicated (created once): centralized DC + normalization of Info (metadata) Info are available everywhere – anytime (any device?) (used anytime): nw (knows device) + DC An optimized network architecture for the healthcare industry based on best practices for real-time collaboration, resiliency, security, responsiveness and interactivity The MGN architecture : Industry-specific framework for defining network strategies and policies Maps clinical and business needs to technology solutions Optimizes interactions between processes, applications, and technical architecture components Facilitates business and clinical communications throughout the continuum Enhances collaboration across the technology partner ecosystem Criteria and checklists for network efficacy and assessments The MGN architecture is not: A static end state One size fits all A detailed network design A bill of materials A capital and operating budget An implementation guide Specific metrics for performance and availability The Medical Grade Network supports: Communication needs for clinicians, patients, administrators and partners Healthcare requirements for availability, security, and fault tolerance Healthcare’s unique information, technology, bandwidth, and integration challenges Anytime, anywhere information capture and access for wired and wireless applications and devices Converged data, voice, and video networks enhancing patient care collaboration Application, medical device, and workflow messaging supporting clinical and business processes Identity and policy-based privacy and security from inside the network to beyond organizational walls Transfer and storage of large data amounts (for example, MRI images) created by healthcare applications Adaptive and intelligent network management operations
  9. To continue to thrive in the competitive healthcare industry, Florida Health Care Plans wanted to empower its employees to communicate more effectively, using voice, video, and Web collaboration. The ability to reach the right person the first time would strengthen the company’s appeal to members and employers, plus increase employee productivity. Another part of their strategic plan was to migrate from paper charts to electronic health records (EHRs) that clinicians and administrators can securely access from a Web browser. Employees now use Cisco Unified IP phones or Cisco Unified Personal Communicator software, a desktop application that integrates all communications applications and services, including instant messaging, an employee directory, call lists, unified messaging, and presence information, which shows if an employee is currently available and the preferred contact method. Employees can quickly initiate a call from within Microsoft Outlook with the click of a button. Cisco Unity Unified Messaging is integrated with Microsoft Exchange, which makes it just as easy to forward a voicemail message as an e-mail message. Savings projections include: $10,000 monthly savings for prescription refill calls: Members who call a toll-free number for prescription refills and need to be transferred to the pharmacy are now transferred over the IP network at no cost instead of over the public switched telephone network. This eliminates the previous T1 lease costs and long-distance charges. $11,000 monthly savings on long distance. Previously, FHCP pre-committed to $200 monthly in long distance for each of its 13 primary care facilities. Now the company aggregates all long-distance calls at its two data centers to eliminate this surcharge and receive a lower long-distance rate. “Our $16,000 monthly long-distance bill has been reduced to $5000,” says Fielder. $10,000 annual savings on maintenance compared to when FHCP had 13 PBX systems. Employees can reach each other more quickly with Cisco Clinical Collaboration features such as online employee directory, four-digit dialing, and presence. Approximately 150 employees use Cisco Unified Personal Communicator on their laptops, giving them access to voice, video, instant messaging, Web conferencing, voicemail, and presence information—all from one easy-to-use interface. Practice managers can meet virtually, using Cisco Unified MeetingPlace Express for voice, video, and Web collaboration, including sharing documents. They join the sessions from their office or home using a Cisco Unified IP Phone 7971G with built-in video or Cisco Unified Video Advantage.
  10. The University of Miami is using Cisco Unified IP Phones with video screens to provide counseling, education, and resources. Today, family members usually do not receive training to care for people with illnesses such as Alzheimer’s disease and can become overwhelmed by behavioral problems and memory loss as well as basic caregiving activities such as bathing and feeding. Part of the problem is that many caregivers cannot leave home to obtain resources or attend support groups. Therefore, a need has emerged to provide training to everyone, everywhere —including their own or a relative’s home. In response, the Center on Aging and other organizations developed a program called Resources for Enhancing Alzheimer’s Caregiver Health (REACH), funded by the National Institute on Aging and National Institute of Nursing Research which are part of the National Institutes of Health. In the first phase of the project at the University of Miami site, family caregivers were given phones with built-in screens that could display text-based instructions on topics that the caregivers selected from menus. Caregivers also participated in telephone support groups with other caregivers. The initial project was successful, and the Center on Aging decided to expand the intervention by adding video. The Center on Aging selected the Cisco Unified IP Phone 7985G for the program because of its large display area, buttons that caregivers could press to select different options, and the ease of programming to display text-based information based on caregivers’ menu selections—and also because telephones are a more familiar technology to this population than computers. Giving family members the resources and support that they need has a significant economic impact. Currently, there are 22 million family caregivers in the United States alone, a population expected to increase to 37 million by 2050. The estimated economic value of family-provided care is US$257 billion annually.
