How Telemedicine helps to overcome the Shortage of Physicians?

For people in rural or underserved places, telemedicine represents a great option, because it solves all the issues related with geography location and even for those people living in urban places, where the number of physicians or specialists is fewer compared to the number of people requesting care.

Telemedicine is not only an option for the present but also for the future of furnishing medicine filling gaps about the shortage of physicians which will increase dramatically. It represents an alternative option for all kind of physicians to treat patients online, increasing revenue.

Video virtual doctor for remote patient monitoring and telehealth

Video for health: “Quick Link” Module

Video with just one click, you can see your Doctor right in the palm of your hand

Due to the Covid-19 and healthcare system deficiencies, the demand and the need for effective, affordable, and accessible telehealth and video solutions have increased.

Patients find it more comfortable to see a doctor at a meeting hosted in their homes or workplaces, avoiding transportation or waiting rooms. Places where patients feel more secure or are convenient for them.

A video call is a great tool for providers to connect with patients, calm fears, explain how a procedure works, solve questions and give advice.

This connection will be reflected in a higher scheduling demand, increased satisfaction rates, and better health outcomes.

Innovation

Some advises to create an innovation solution!

Innovation is the change now. – Esvyda philosophy

Nowadays, innovation is a big differentiating and survival factor among organizations. The market changes faster and faster, encouraging companies to implement innovative ideas.

Although many companies want to be innovative, only a few of them achieve this goal, mostly because of lack of knowledge about what, how, when, where, why and to whom innovate, some others fear of changing the status quo, organizations prefer to stick to a strategy as long as it seems to be working

To encourage the creation of innovative ideas, an organization could:

1. Listen Beyond Internal Voices Of The Team

In the field of innovation is important to listen beyond the internal voices of the team itself, a product does not have to meet personal needs or desires.

Listening beyond the echo of the company’s team voices themselves, carefully observe the market and finally align objectives of the different parts of the team, understand and address those who thoroughly investigate the competitor and observe the consumer and align strategies with those who have the technological knowledge.

Communication - Innovation (Innovación)
User Experience - Experiencia de usuario - Innovation/Innovación

2. Keep in Mind The User Experience

The product has to keep the user in mind, it has to improve his experience, making complex uses, simple functions, saving time.

Innovation is not about the creation of a “Super Product Never Seen Before”, in this field there are already many geniuses, it is about the creation of a solution capable of being understood by any user without distinction of economic, social or educational level, to turn it into something so necessary to be part of a user’s daily life.

3. Provide Several User Support Strategies

Once you got customers, design several strategies of support. There is not a one-size-fits-all strategy, they have to be created based on user or customer behavior. I would suggest to embed it into your solution. For instance, if you have designed web or mobile app, try to provide some guidance inside it. Some users won’t want to call, or text on a website, others won’t read the guidelines available outside their phone. 

Support Graphic for Innovation Solutions / Gráfico de soporte para soluciones Innovadoras.
ROI for Innovation - ROI para innovación

4. Build a Solution With A Strong ROI Strategy

It is important to create a solution that provides different goals: In the first instance, provide a clear ROI for the short, middle and long term to those who will buy and/or use it, have a clear offer, solving an immediate need. Up to here, it would not seem innovative if I also propose an added value. The ROI may be reflected in time-saving as well because of a reduction of administrative tasks. Thus, if you are able to convert time to money saved, you will win in this field!

The key role of Caregivers and Family Caregivers Remote Patient Monitoring and Telehealth Telemedicine Esvyda

The key role of Caregivers and Family Caregivers

A lot of studies have shown that patients achieve better health outcomes when they communicate with their doctors and caregivers. Also, when they may participate in their treatment, communicating about their health, mood, and other activities.

Caregivers and family caregivers play a key role in patients’ engagement, treatments, as well as care coordination. Because they influence the patient’s health. Involve caregivers, and getting their feedback incorporated into patients’ health data, should be paramount.

Caregives role for patients with remote patient monitoring and Telehealth

In 2014, the AARP estimated that in 2020, will be 45 million family caregivers for 117 million patients. This is why they are most of the time overwhelmed with the work of caring for patients. Furthermore, studies showed that existing digital technologies do not meet their needs, caregivers have reported issues with functionality and usability. 

2020 caregivers for remote patient monitoring and patients in telehealth

Implementing a technological solution should focus on connecting caregivers and family caregivers outside doctors’ offices and getting integrated into workflows. Consequently, improving the care coordination, and understanding that caregivers provide care outside doctors’ offices being intermediaries between doctors and patients.

How technology helps caregivers.

Smart watch and wearable for helping caregivers and remote patient monitoring and telehealth

Healthcare technological solutions must show good results in the coordination of all caregivers’ activities. They need to provide timely tasks availability and set up status for them while reducing the overwhelmed work. Communication with primary care providers and other care teams needs to be easy.

Emergency response, wearables, and other wireless medical devices without an intelligence may cause false alarms that caregivers must cope with. Analytical and intelligent technology has to help to manage those devices and provide several response cases. In which caregivers should act and communicate with Home Health Agencies, primary care providers, and all other healthcare stakeholders. All of this, in a timely manner, sharing thoughts and concerns about the course of patients’ treatments.

Esvyda is a powerful telehealth and remote patient monitoring solution, that is able to support Home Health, and Home Care. We encourage caregivers and primary care providers for delivering valuable care to patients at home. Esvyda’s solution is in English and Spanish. 

nteroperability in healthcare telehealth and remote patient monitoring

Why Is Interoperability Important In Healthcare?

Administrative burden and lack of care coordination in Healthcare are two of the most remarkable and time-consuming problems for health care providers. Let’s see how interoperability helps

Researchers at the University of Wisconsin and the American Medical Association performed a study at a large Academic Healthcare Center in Southern Wisconsin, with 142 family medicine physicians, released some key findings about time spent by physicians in administrative tasks. The study was conducted for three years. From here:

Physicians and doctors use interoperability for telehealth and remote patient monitoring

Then…Why Interoperability In Healthcare?

All the above findings are related to the lack of care coordination because of siloed systems and problems integrating medical data. Fragmented information of patients along the care journey cannot provide an overview about their problems. Healthcare is not well coordinated. Sometimes health care providers in the outpatient settings do not have information about the patient’s previous journey of care: Whether the patient came from home, Emergency Room, Hospital, Rehab. Center, or another facility.

Now patients want to be empowered by technologies that allow them to look for the best health care options online (affordability, convinience….), they do not want to travel long distances to wait forever in a room, they want to keep their healthcare information at their hands, they want to know how much they are charged for that care as well. (About appointments, payments…)

Interoperability helps health care providers to reduce administrative burden, coordinate care and to engage patients.

Patients may have the ability to do all the booking, check in and payment process using their phones and overall information may be sent directly to EHRs previous consultations, reducing time and paperwork for administrative staff, because clinicians and staff will have the information in real-time. Everything easily done: From consent forms electronically signed through payments done by patients, information available to all health care providers involved in the care of that patient.

Summary of consultations whether face to face or online may be easily exchanged with any authorized person involved in the care of patient and available to the patient in plain language and translated in tasks integrated to his daily routine such as medications, physical activity, and diet. The follow up of all activities may be monitored by healthcare providers in a timely manner, because the data is automatically uploaded to EHRs any time patient reports about his activities assigned using phones and communicating with the right people at the right time.

Patient using phone for interoperability and remote patient monitoring and telehealth

The coordination of care may be improved If any care team member is able to receive relevant information about the patient and follow up tasks performed by another team member or by patient himself, it means, exchanging communication at the time is needed.

Interoperability may allow to have the information about patients in one place, real-time follow up of their activities and interaction among care team members, reducing time, saving costs and providing better care to patients!

Mothers are also Remote Patient Monitoring and Telehealth Patients

Mothers care for everyone, But who cares for them?

Nowadays, mothers have more responsibilities. Society is demanding more tasks for them, like caring for their children, performing important jobs that require lot of time, spending time with their couples and perhaps taking care of their parents.

Healthcare field is not an exception where doctors, practice managers, clinical staff and CEOs are mothers as well. They must divide time between caring for their patients and their families. The increasing burden of stressful situations may increase the risk of suffering several diseases.

Women, specially mothers who spend all their time on others must be acknowledge about some common conditions they may suffer.

Care for doctors and women with remote patient monitoring and Telehealth patients / Madres, cuidados para Ellas (cuidados para mujeres y madres)

Heart Diseases

In US causes one in every four deaths in women. factors like high blood pressure, high cholesterol or smoke may contribute to the disease.

Regarding the symptoms, sometimes women may have no symptoms, others feel pain in the neck, jaw, throat or pain in the upper abdomen or back, which is called angina. These may happen doing physical activity, while resting, or under stressful situations. Additionally, the chest pain experienced by women is more described as sharp and burning.

Heart disease may be sometimes undiagnosed until a woman starts experiencing signs of a heart attack, heart failure, an arrhythmia, or stroke.

They are called “suddens” because they come on very suddenly.

Symptoms may include:

  • Numbness or weakness/paralysi (inability to move) of face, arm or leg, especially on one side of the body
  • Confusion, trouble speaking, or understanding speech
  • Trouble seeing in one or both eyes
  • Trouble walking, dizziness, loss of balance or coordination
  • Shortness of breath
  • Loss of consciousness
  • Severe headache with no known cause

Sometimes these symptoms are not considered to be part of a stroke that is why treatment is not on time. Only if symptoms are recognized and treated within three hours, treatments may take effect.

Women must be careful about the signs of a stroke, because it needs immediate attention. Stroke is the number 4 cause of death in US. And the leading cause of severe long-term disability.

It includes chest pain or discomfort, upper back pain, indigestion, heartburn, nausea/vomiting, extreme fatigue, upper body discomfort, and shortness of breath.

Shortness of breath, fatigue, swelling of the feet, ankles, legs and/or abdomen

Arrhythmias may not cause any signs or symptoms however fast, slow or irregular heartbeats can be noticed.

Risk factors

  • Have high blood pressure, LDL cholesterol
  • Smoke
  • Suffer from diabetes
  • Present overweight and obesity
  • Have a poor diet
  • Are physical inactive
  • Excessively drink alcohol
  • They have family history
  • Taking birth control pills. The greatest concern about using oral contraceptives is for women with additional risk factors
  • Being pregnant. Stroke risk increases during a normal pregnancy due to natural changes in the body such as increased blood pressure and stress on the heart.
  • Using Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT), a combined hormone therapy of progestin and estrogen, to relieve menopausal symptoms.
  • Suffering from migraine headaches with aura. Migraines can increase a woman’s stroke risk two and a half times and most people in the U.S. who suffer migraines are women.

Prevention

  • Quit smoking
  • Eat healthy and Include physical activity in your daily routine
  • If you are obese, try to lose weight.
  • Check your blood pressure, glucose and triglycerides regularly
  • Limit alcohol intake to one drink a day
  • If you are prescribed with medication take them according to instructions
  • Fight against stress find healthy options to cope with that such as meditation, outdoor activities, Yoga, Taiichi or others

Cancer

Breast cancer is the uncontrolled increasing of cells in the breast. A tumor is formed by these cells. The tumor may be seen through an X-ray or it may be felt as a lump. If the cells grow into (invading) around tissues, it is called a malignant tumor (invade) or if it is spread (metastasize) to distant areas of the body. Breast cancer occurs almost entirely in women, however, sometimes men can get cancer too.

Women who have close blood relatives suffering the disease are at a High risk of getting the disease. Mother’s and father’s family history of breast cancer is important.

The American Cancer Society‘s estimates that 268,600 new cases of invasive breast cancer were diagnosed in women in 2019

Symptoms

  • Swelling of all or part of a breast (even if no distinct lump is felt)
  • Skin irritation or dimpling (sometimes looking like an orange peel)
  • Breast or nipple pain
  • Nipple retraction (turning inward)
  • Redness, scariness, or thickening of the nipple or breast skin
  • Nipple discharge (other than breast milk)

Detection

  • Usually getting some screenings may help to detect the disease on time.
  • Be aware of changes in your breasts.
  • Women should do monthly breast selfexams.
  • Get annual mammograms for women after age 40
  • Ask about genetic testing for high-risk families.

Prevention

  • Eat healthy.
  • Include physical activity in your daily routine.
  • Avoid alcohol intake

Digital Health Solutions for Women / Mothers.

Some studies say that women are demanding digital technology offerings that provide trusty sources of information related to women’s healthcare concerns.

But beyond concepts, they want digital solutions that motivate them every day, for any activity performed or to start performing it. Women want to take control of their own health, which means empowerment and at the same time to connect with others in the same field or issue, which is about communities.

Why Telemedicine May Reduce The Time To See A Doctor?

Why Telemedicine May Reduce The Time To See A Doctor?

Telemedicine is a tool that helps to optimize the time and costs of medical consultations for the doctor and the patient.

Time consuming, booking a face-to-face consultation

Why Telemedicine May Reduce The Time To See A Doctor?

A 2017 Merritt Hawkins survey found the average wait time for a physician appointment is 24.1 days.

From January 9, 2017 through February 13, 2017 research associates at Merritt Hawkins called physician offices in 15 major metropolitan areas and 15 mid-sized metropolitan areas with the purpose of scheduling a new patient appointment. The survey focused on five medical specialties: cardiology, dermatology, obstetricsgynecology, orthopedic surgery and family medicine.

Names of physicians were selected at random from internet-based physician office listings such as theonline Yellow Pages or Healthgrades.

Key Finding from the study about the time consultation:

1.

Average “new patient” physician appointment wait times have increased significantly. And They included here, when the patient has not visited the practice for more than three years.

2.

The average wait time for a physician appointment for the 15 large metro markets surveyed is 24.1 days, up 30% from 2014.

3.

Appointment wait times are longer in mid-sized metro markets than in large metro markets.

4.

The average wait time for a new patient physician appointment in all 15 mid-sized markets is 32 days, 32.8% higher than the average for large metro markets.

5.

For large markets, the average wait time to see a family medicine physician is 29 days (up 50% from 2014), and ranges from a high of 109 days in Boston to a low of 8 days in Minneapolis. 

6.

The average wait time for a new patient physician appointment in all 15 mid-sized markets is 32 days, 32.8% higher than the average for large metro markets.

Appointment Cancellation for Wait Times

Based on a Health Records vendor, the more time waiting for appointment the more cancellation rates. 12% of patients who were going to see the doctor the next day cancelled. 22% of patients who had to wait for three weeks cancelled. And 32% of patients who had to wait four weeks cancelled their appointments.

Patient no-shows have become a chronic problem in thehealthcare space. It costs the system.

150 billions annually - 150 billones anualmente

According to vendor reports. In addition to this money, some studies* have linked “no-shows” to health complications and missing General Practitioner visits were associated with early death. 

How Telemedicine May Help to reduce the time to see a Doctor

Physicians may save time and expenses related to transportation, implementing telemedicine. Some physicians have part-time jobs at different medical practices and telemedicine may be a great tool for them to see their patients online. For independent physicians, specialists or any type of physician practice, telemedicine is a good option to see patients on weekends or after business hours from home (If reimbursed by health plan) or from their own offices and put their profiles and availability at the hands of their patients.

About Esvyda Telemedicine Solution for reduce the time consultation!

Esvyda work jointly with medical practices to implement viable telemedicine and remote patient monitoring strategies and stablish short, middle and longterm goals.

Telehealth

Telehealth, 5 awesome benefits

Esvyda is the best option of Telehealth for clinicians to get meaningful data from patients and connect with them using online consultations, everything integrated with EHRs.

Telehealth may do a lot of changes in a medical practice

Patients may be very satisfied, because they may save time and money avoiding transportation and even, they do not need to take time off from work to see a medical doctor. That way clinicians may get in touch with patients easily and at the same time administrative tasks are reduced because of the use of virtual consultations.

Telehealth may do a lot of changes in a medical practice / Beneficios de la telemedicina

1. Medical practices may benefit from using telehealth and profits may increase in less than a month.

We will tell you why:

a.

Clinicians may book more consultations: Medical practices realize about the fact that booking more than traditional number of visits per clinician per day do not require more staff, because it is a very easy process. Let us say 2 providers, performing 2 video visits per day, will earn an extra $67,200 per year, only for two video visits per day.

b.

Clinicians may opt in to see patients after business hours or even on weekends, incrementing revenue, this provides convenience in time for both clinicians and patients.

c.

No-shows reduction It is a waste of time and money when patients cancel or do not attend apts. Patients having the ability to book, do all the check-in and payment process at their best convenient way and from home and having the option to connect with doctor through video reduces significantly the amount of no-shows.

d.

Offer a patient who calls to cancel a face-to-face consultation an option to see doctor online. If a patient has a face-to-face apt. and he calls in the last minute to cancel it, medical staff may suggest patient to have it online.

e.

Dealing with transportation expenses issues and long distances is difficult for patients and it may be a barrier for visiting the doctor, thus telemedicine is a helpful option for them. Sometimes, patients choose a practice because geography proximity and after they move, they change providers. telemedicine may avoid all those issues related to geography barriers.

2. Telehealth for programs related with prevention and treatment of diseases

Telehealth is a great opportunity for a medical practice to offer not only isolated video visits but alsofor programs about prevention associated with lifestyle as well as for programs related with chronic disease treatments of obesity, hypertension, diabetes, among others.

3. Reduction of administrative burden with Telehealth

Because of patients may do check-in process online for face-to-face or online consultations, staff may spend less time on patients’ check-ins, they will have to cope with less patients at the front office as well.

4. Follow ups made through phone and e-mail may be now reimbursed adding telehealth

It is well-know that insurers do not reimburse clinicians for calls or e-mails follow ups. However, if they add the video component for reviewing tests, medication or management of treatments, most of these services will be reimbursable.

5. Telehealth for CCM and TCM

Clinicians may take advantage of using telemedicine to get reimbursed for Chronic Care Management (CCM) and Transitional Care Management (TCM) services. The advantage of implementing telemedicine for these services is that they do not require an originated site, because home may be used by patients to get online consultations, this is a good option to keep patients engaged, that way clinicians may meet the time required for any of the services and
get paid for that.

And let us add something else …

People or patients are looking at providers that offer more convenient and affordable way to get care and if your practice meet these needs you may increase revenue having happy patients.

Telehealth Benefits / Beneficios de la telemedicina

Esvyda Telehealth solution will help

Esvyda can help clinicians to design several strategies for the incorporation and adoption of telemedicine solutions in their different specialties.

"Having the right technology at the right time, we may keep patients at home with the right treatment for them"

Telemedicine Virus Prevention

Telemedicine, a great way to treat viruses!

Telemedicine helps to prevent crowds of people in waiting rooms and also, allows  patients comunicate with their doctors anytime, anywhere.

It is not easy to be prepared for the flu or virus season, however, having the right technology at the right time, we may keep patients at home with the right treatment for them and clinicians will provide a better and more accurate service.

Telemedicine

TELEMEDICINE
a great way to treat
VIRUSES

Flu season increases the number of patient visits and the risk for contracting the virus to clinicians as well. All of clinicians have their own families and loved ones to take care of, thus, they must double their work, at offices and at home.

Although, we know some solutions work on some ways such as vaccines and hand washing, the flu may be still contagious. However, a few time ago some clinicians have opted in telemedicine as the best way to treat and prevent the virus for themselves and families as well as medical and administrative staff.

Advantages of using TELEMEDICINE
to prevent and treat
VIRUSES

For Patients

They may book apts. And do all the check-in process such as payment from the comfort of their home and at their best convenient and affordable way, without waiting for a long time to see a doctor or driving long distances. Nowadays patients own at least one digital device at home whether a laptop, mobile phone or tablet and a way to connect to internet.

Legislation has allowed almost all patients to be covered by their health plans to get telehealth services and even new laws for Medicare Advantage Plans are now including telehealth or online consultations as available services for their members.

For Clinicians

It may reduce the number of contagious patients in the waiting rooms avoiding the spreading of viruses among patients and even medical practice’s staff.


Clinicians may see a patient face-to-face in just some minutes, so clinicians can listen to and observe the patient for symptoms, such as runny nose, watery eyes, and coughing. If a clinician thinks the patient’s condition is serious but not urgent, he or she can explore treatment options, such as prescribing antiviral medications to lessen symptoms. And if a patient needs to go to the ED, a virtual clinician can triage quickly, while providing much-needed reassurance.
