Invent Health Virtual EventPrimary Care and the New Medical QB
The future of connected fitness and health plans or benefits. Can connected fitness inspire and reward people to work out more? If more people work out and stay fit, healthcare costs go down. After all, exercise can prevent chronic conditions or postpone them. Technology can quantify our workouts and biometrics, so how do we leverage this activity data (generated at home or inside gyms) to inspire an active lifestyle and lower overall healthcare costs? What are the business models that work? And besides the consumer, who wins? Moderators: Dr. Archana Dubey (CMO Consultant, HP; Chief Clinical Officer, AliveCor), Bambi Francisco Roizen (Founder and CEO, Vator); Speakers: Justin Norden (Partner, GSR Ventures); Lauren Foundos (CEO, Forte.fit); Kevin Lynch (Investor, Maschmeyer Group Ventures)

-- 10 million teens struggling with some mental illness. 90% of them will not receive evidence-based treatments.
-- The mental health system is broken because 1) lack of accessibility to counselors/help 2) quality of care is poor 3) treatments are expensive
-- Daybreak focuses on clinical behavioral analysis therapies -- CBT, DBT, ACT - cognitive behavioral therapy; dialectical behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. These are different from traditional psychoanalytic therapies that focus on a person’s history vs a person’s behavior.
-- The root causes of the rise in mental illness are social media and technology as well as the coddling of the American mind (to borrow from Jonathan Haidt’s research).
-- Daybreak is currently used by upwards of 30 schools.
-- Daybreak has around 13 counselors.
-- Daybreak will help with insurance reimbursement. Parents can also choose to pay directly on a monthly basis. The program includes one 50-minute individual session per week; messaging with counselors plus other engaging activities for teens.

BFR talks to Andrew Le, CEO and co-founder of Buoy Health, a healthcare navigation platform that lets patients easily find the information they’re seeking. Just as Waze mapping app gets you to where you want to go, Buoy can direct you to the right care decisions. Some highlights:
-- Le talks about the company’s beginning: focusing first on the clinical components because until someone understands what clinical triage is needed, they won’t know what insurance decisions to make
-- Le talks about how Buoy isn’t really replacing the nurse triage person or physician assistant, but adding a new AI layer, much like Waze maps didn’t replace any jobs but rather a layer of efficiency for consumers. Today 72% of people start their healthcare journey at Google. Buoy wants to be that starting point.
-- Le talks about the company’s business model and how Buoy was able to convince three competing insurance companies to invest in his company

Lumiata helps health plans and providers with risk management through the use of AI
Highlights from the interview:
There's a move toward value-based care, which means that health plans and providers have to modernize their approach when it comes to managing risk. However, many organizations have been using legacy methods, so Lumiata brings data science so they can use big data and AI to help them manage risk better by providing predictions built off of much larger data sets.
The COVID has made it even more challenging to accurately assess risk in healthcare, because there are millions of Americans who now have pre-existing conditions. That makes Lumiata's insights even more important.
Lumiata works off of claims data, as well as EHR and electronic records. As new datasets emerge, such as as the use of devices that can be used to provide a real-time view of somebody's risk, Lumiata's software platform is able to quickly ingest these new datasets as well to create a holistic view of each patient.
Because of COVID, there has been a rise in telemedicine, which is creating new data streams and insights that can also be used by Lumiata.
Lumiata has been able to reduce risk capital by tens or hundreds of billions of dollars with health plans by predicting future risk with more accuracy. In some cases it is identifying twice as many future high cost members as they are able to internally or by using a consulting firm.
Healthcare systems are under severe strain, and it won't end with the pandemic, and products like Lumiata can help doctors prioritize care better.
At the end of the day, this is all about lowering the cost of care. Today, a family of four, with an income of $110,000 a year, is spending a quarter of their income on out of pocket healthcare costs, and that's rising every year. Lumiata is able to predict future costs with a lot more precision, and its predicted cost is lower than what internal models are.

Welcome to the VatorNews podcast, I’m Steven Loeb and I’m here with Bambi Francisco speaking with Russ Glass, CEO of Ginger, an on-demand mental health company providing access to emotional support via coaching, therapy and psychiatry.
We’ll learn about Russell and Ginger on this podcast, but our overall goal is to understand how technology is changing healthcare. How are we empowering the consumer? Are we creating productivity that also allows us to see economic costs go down? How are tech advancements changing the role of the doctor?

Behind the democratization of clinical trials; How to naturally produce happiness hormones
The Invent Health weekly podcast with Dr. Archana Dubey and Bambi Francisco Roizen is the only weekly podcast that breaks down the latest digital health news of the week and what it means for patients, providers and payers (or who's paying). Plus a deep dive on a particular topic to help listeners understand how innovation is changing the healthcare paradigm.
This week they discuss: The boom in decentralized clinical trials. DCT allows people to be in their homes for clinical trials. Medable raises $78 million in mid-April, following more than $100 million raised in two rounds in 2020. Medable is one of emerging companies trying to streamline the clinical trial process. They touch on why clinical trials in the home are possible and the positive aspects and downsides. The deep dive this week is "Happy hormones" and the effect of these hormones: dopamine, endorphins, oxytocin, serotonin on our bodies and what actions (sleep, prayer, gratitude, exercise, diet) releases these hormones naturally. For instance, make a list! This gives a person a feeling of accomplishment and releases dopamine!

This week we discuss:
Digital health investments top $6 billion. What's behind the rise? Where is the money going? And the silent pandemic. Suicides are down from 2019, but that's not telling the entire story, particularly for young adults 18-24, who are being hit hardest by a confluence of events, not the least of which are social media and lawnmower parenting.

In 2021 it’s finally okay to talk about our mental health and that’s why we’re excited to be sponsored by BetterHelp. But what IS therapy? It’s whatever you want it to be. Maybe you’re feeling insecure in relationships or at work, or not very motivated right now. Whatever you need, it’s time to stop being ashamed of normal human struggles and start feeling better. Because you deserve to be happy. BetterHelp is a customized online therapy that offers video, phone, and even live chat sessions. Plus, it’s more affordable than in-person therapy but just as effective. See if it’s for you.

Interoperability might be bad for Epic! Why "safetyism" is a factor driving the silent pandemic

Plus a deep dive on a particular topic to help listeners understand how innovation is changing the healthcare paradigm.
This week we discuss: The EMR giant Epic is at a crossroads as VC investments pour into digital health in record numbers to take advantage of a world where consumers have ownership of their data and government continues to push for more data interoperability. They also talk about the silent pandemic and what's driving the mental health crisis. Besides COVID, the two focus on parenting and the creation of what moral psychologist Jonathan Haidt calls a culture of "safetyism."
