The healthcare industry has already been burdened by longstanding trends like aging populations, provider burnout, and patient dissatisfaction. Healthcare burnout has increased significantly during the pandemic. Many factors are putting strain on the industry: expanding healthcare roles, squeeze in reimbursements, competition for patient volume, shifts in the delivery of care, and a shortage of providers and staff. These factors have contributed to the unprecedented challenge forcing healthcare organizations to rethink established norms and operational best practices. While new technologies have promised significant clinical and operational benefits for healthcare organizations, COVID-19 has turned them from nice-to-haves to imperatives. This session will discuss how today’s workforce crisis can be addressed through new models of care such as telehealth. Objectives: Discuss the business process and business applications revolution Explain the experience revolution Describe the impact of new models of care on the clinical workforce

The global digital transformation has been exponentially accelerated by the latest pandemic and we have a unique opportunity to redefine, redesign and reconfigure global wellness, global health and global health-care delivery systems. Telehealth and telemedicine play a key role in this new ecosystem and can act as a gateway to achieving Healthcare 4.0. The dual power of increased telehealth adoption, and transitioning towards a decentralized next generation internet (web 3.0) can act as a catalyst to enhance our efforts toward attainment of a more equitable healthcare ecosystem.

Modern healthcare is quickly evolving. The advent of EHRs and digital health is putting pressure on physicians to know more and more non-clinical information. In addition to their clinical expertise physician alignment and proficiency with financial, compliance, and administrative objectives is critical for the modern healthcare systems overall success. While physicians are experts at providing the best possible care for their patients, they receive little to no training on how to align with crucial health system initiatives resulting in friction between physician and health system stakeholders. The secret to harmoniously merging physician’s clinical goals with the health system’s business goals is increasing the application of evidence-based EHR integrated disease management.

Telehealth provides an opportunity to change rules of engagement, reach out to neglected communities, and uncharted populations at the touch of a button, redefining a transformative vision from disconnection to a well-orchestrated consortium of value-based care and patient-centered services. All we need to do is to develop a ‘digital resource recycling’ mentality, and technology will take care of the rest. The new telehealth paradigm supports outreach, connectivity and interaction, offering an opportunity to put an end to the current innovation predicament and function on a platform that we can scale and radically transform the pace and permanence of integration in health and care systems. The challenge is an overproduction of data, already contributing to the global carbon footprint. This is where data recycling comes in, as a sustainability prerequisite for the new telehealth paradigm.
