Panelists: Carisi Anne Polanczyk, ScD, MD, PEV Healthcare Consulting, Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil; Anne Geubelle, MBA, Prologica, Lisboa, 11, Portugal; Prakash Jayakumar, MD PhD, Dell Medical School, The University of Texas Health Austin, Austin, TX, USA

ISSUE:

The staggering rise in health care expenditure across many health systems without a commensurate improvement in health outcomes benefiting patients relative to cost has signaled a need for models that aim to deliver improved value for patient populations. Translating this concept into practice requires a substantial rethink around how the business in healthcare is done, starting with the way care model are built and how the data is collected and shared among stakeholders to ensure continual improvement and sustainability of such models. This panel will describe real world outcomes and cost data from applied projects implementing IPU-based models of care across 3 countries with the same purpose: to improve population health outcomes relative to costs for delivering outcomes. From the United States, a musculoskeletal IPU delivering comprehensive, integrated will be demonstrated, including the barriers, facilitators, opportunities, and achievements to date. In a similar approach, the Asthma project from Brazil will share with the audience how a step-by-step method is being followed to transform asthma care in the country, from a decentralized and volume-based to an integrated and data-driven services. Finally, the project in development in Portugal will be used to demonstrate how the technology is serving as an essential element to make feasible the implementation of IPU for bariatric surgery.

OVERVIEW:

The panel will be started by the moderator and, in sequence, each one of the speakers will have 10 minutes to share their experiences from each one of the countries. The last 10 minutes will be dedicated to the discussion. It is expected that the audience leave the session motivated to start practical initiatives for different care pathways, understanding; which type of technology is required to make it happen; which stakeholders need to be involved, and how it is possible to follow a step-by-step method to make happen.
