Health systems seek out patient feedback to improve telehealth platform

October 10, 2020

| Health Magazine

The pressure is on for health systems to create digital experiences patients will enjoy or risk losing out on revenue. In the digital age, consumers have high expectations of what these platforms should be like. “Systems are no longer just competing with other health systems in their region, they are competing with the experiences people have in their daily lives from other brands—that is the bar,” Kalis said. “When those experiences are cumbersome, that can lead to choosing one provider over another … and in the most extreme case, even switching providers.”

Telehealth’s increased popularity has prompted Stanford Health Care to totally rethink how it is assessing patients’ experience with the platform. The California system now does about 62,000 telehealth visits a month, up from about a 1,000 a month before COVID-19.

Now that volumes have stabilized and are staying strong, Alpa Vyas, vice president for patient experience at Stanford,

Regeneron Antibodies in Demand After Trump Treatment, Doctors Seek More Data | Top News

October 8, 2020

| Health Article

(Reuters) – Patients are asking to join clinical trials of antibody-based COVID-19 drugs after U.S. President Donald Trump was treated last week with an experimental therapy from Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc, and on Wednesday he promised to make it free to Americans while touting its benefits.

Medical experts said more data is needed to assess the treatment’s efficacy before wider use should be allowed.

Trump was discharged from the hospital late on Monday, just a few days after being diagnosed with COVID-19 that caused enough lung inflammation for blood oxygen levels to fall.

According to his doctor, blood tests on Monday detected infection-fighting antibodies, which a Regeneron spokesperson said were probably from the treatment.

In a video shot outside the White House, Trump credited the Regeneron therapy for his feeling much better than when he was first diagnosed and said he would push for emergency use authorizations (EUA) of that treatment

How Often Do Cops Seek Mental Health Services?

October 7, 2020

| Health Center

Only about a third of police officers with a mental health diagnosis sought support for their condition, a survey of a department in Texas found.

Among the 434 police officers in Dallas-Fort Worth who responded to the survey, 12% (n=54) reported receiving a mental illness diagnosis within their lifetime, with about half of these cases being a current diagnosis, reported Katelyn Jetelina, MPH, PhD, of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston School of Public Health, and colleagues.

However, only 35% of these officers with a current mental health diagnosis sought mental health services within the past year, the group wrote in JAMA Network Open.

Some factors that were tied to a higher odds of a lifetime mental illness diagnosis among police officers included being female (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 3.20, 95% CI 1.18-8.68), and being either divorced, widowed, or separated versus those who were married (aOR

Pensioners are reluctant to seek help for mental health issues, says charity

Pensioners are reluctant to seek mental health treatment because they believe it to be a “private matter”, a charity has warned. 

People aged 65 and older make up just 6 per cent of NHS talking-therapy patients in England, suggesting a need for more options and support for those experiencing mental health issues in later life. 

The research, published on Wednesday by elder people’s charity, Independent Age, found there were “some unique barriers” that this age group faces when it comes to accessing support for mental health problems. 

Researchers found “a number of people we heard from felt their mental health was a ‘private matter’, or they ‘didn’t want to worry anyone’ and this stopped them from talking about it”. 

“Others felt there was ‘no point’ discussing it because ‘there is nothing anyone can do’, or felt that stigma still existed.”

Another barrier was simply “a lack of awareness of talking

The Hong Kong government is seeking the help of Thailand’s consulate-general as it moves to contain a possible outbreak among the city’s Thai community, after two more Covid-19 infections – one preliminary – were identified among women from the country.

Health authorities also suspended flights from Nepal Airlines for two weeks after six of Monday’s seven imported cases involved passengers arriving from the country.

In all, the city recorded 11 new coronavirus infections, as health authorities also raced to fully contain a possible outbreak at a bar in Tsim Sha Tsui.

Huskers seek right blend for good health and good hitting

October 4, 2020

| Good Health



There’s no irrefutable science attached to this particular matter. It’s a simple question to say out loud, but challenging answer to nail down: How much hitting and to-the-ground tackling do you do? Coaches ask that in normal seasons. And then there is this strange duck that is 2020. 

It looms as important as ever. It’s the pursuit of proper balance after a long offseason, with basically no spring football, then a seven-week delay to a fall season. Now Nebraska has three weeks of practices before it plays one of the best teams in the country in Ohio State. It was only this last week when Big Ten teams began the move into pads.

“I think it’s very important that you take a good picture of your kids, and you see the hits that they’re taking,” said offensive line coach Greg Austin. “You calculate, ‘OK, how many

More seniors to seek online help

Open enrollment season for Medicare enrollees can sometimes be overwhelming because of the wide variety of choices.

The average senior will have 47 different health plans to choose from for 2021, according to the Trump administration, up 20% from last year. 

In most years, the majority of seniors turn to independent brokers and insurance agents for help trying to figure out which plan will work best for them. 

“In our focus groups, people said it’s kind of nice to have an agent who can walk you through the options and steer you toward a certain plan,” said Tricia Neuman, executive director of the Kaiser Family Foundation program on Medicare policy. But, she adds, “it’s much harder this year just because people are mostly home.”

With Covid-19 cases rising across the country, seniors are reluctant to seek help in person

By Alexander Winning

JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – Africa’s overburdened public health systems, dearth of testing facilities and overcrowded slums had experts predicting a disaster when COVID-19 hit the continent in February.

The new coronavirus was already wreaking havoc in wealthy Asian and European nations, and a United Nations agency said in April that, even with social-distancing measures, the virus could kill 300,000 Africans this year.

In May the World Health Organization (WHO) warned that 190,000 people on the continent could die if containment measures failed. Yet as the world marks 1 million COVID-19 deaths, Africa is doing much better than expected, with a lower percentage of deaths than other continents.

The continent’s case fatality count stands at 2.4%,

The continent’s case fatality count stands at 2.4%, with roughly 35,000 deaths among the more than 1.4 million people reported infected with COVID-19, according to Reuters data as at late Monday. In North America, it is 2.9% and in Europe 4.5%

Pennsylvania GOP Chairman Claims He Was Taken Out of Context in Atlantic Story on Trump Stealing Election

Lawrence Tabas insists he has no intention of disenfranchising the voters of Pennsylvania.Tabas, the state’s Republican Party chairman, said he isn’t planning a scheme where the GOP-led State Assembly – not voters – would choose Pennsylvania’s 20 electors.He hasn’t discussed such a strategy with other Republican leaders or the Trump campaign.But he understands why readers of The Atlantic might come to the conclusion that he has.Tabas was one of several sources in a 9,800-word story by Atlantic staff writer Barton Gellman published last week on the magazine’s website. The story explores potential 2020 election chaos and the possibility that President Donald Trump could cling to power by preventing “the formation of a consensus about whether there is any outcome at all.”The story says Tabas is one of at least three prominent
