🩺✅ Patient registration for MyMedicare now open Earlier this year, the Australian Government introduced MyMedicare – a voluntary new patient registration system that aims to formalise the relationship between patients, their general practice, general practitioner (GP) and primary care teams. Now that patients can register in MyMedicare and select their preferred GP, health professionals who haven’t already done so are encouraged to register their general practice in MyMedicare to access the benefits. 🔗 Learn more at https://lnkd.in/grPDDnax #mymedicare #medicare

Smooth care transitions lead to better therapy adherence and outcomes. Yet, many clinical teams feel crunched for time during admission and discharge. Pharmacy can close the gaps: https://lnkd.in/eaJm48kr One of our hospital partners recently took this advice, transforming Transitions of Care into a pharmacy-led program supported by telepharmacy teams. Just nine months later, the health system saved $3.074 million while also improving patient care and quality.

Had some questions about Discharge Velocity last week. It's an essential aspect of healthcare management as it directly impacts patient flow, bed turnover, and overall hospital operations. Here are three ways hospitals can enhance discharge velocity: 1. Care Coordination and Planning: - Efficient discharge planning is essential. Interdisciplinary teams can work collaboratively to identify patient needs, create comprehensive care plans, and address any potential barriers to a smooth discharge. - Early identification of potential discharge dates and involvement of the patient and their family in the planning process can help set realistic expectations and streamline the transition from hospital to home or another care setting. 2. Communication and Information Sharing: - Clear and timely communication among healthcare providers is crucial. Electronic health records (EHRs) and other communication tools can facilitate the exchange of information between different departments and healthcare professionals. - Regular multidisciplinary meetings can help ensure that all team members are aware of the patient's status, care plan, and potential discharge date. 3. Post-Discharge Support: - Providing adequate post-discharge support is essential for preventing readmissions and ensuring a smooth recovery. This may involve arranging home health services, coordinating follow-up appointments, and providing patients with clear instructions on medication management and self-care. - Transitional care programs can significantly improve outcomes. This may include follow-up phone calls, home visits, or virtual care to monitor the patient's progress and address any issues that may arise after discharge. Improving discharge velocity is key to optimizing resources and providing timely care to patients. #healthcare #dischargevelocity #patientcare

National Healthcare Decisions Day is a perfect opportunity to celebrate and honor the importance of proactive healthcare decision-making. This day serves as a reminder for individuals to consider their healthcare wishes and preferences, especially in terms of medication adherence. By actively participating, individuals can take steps to ensure that their healthcare decisions align with their values and goals, including decisions related to medication management. Medication adherence is a critical aspect of healthcare decision-making, as it directly impacts treatment effectiveness and overall health outcomes. We encourage individuals to reflect on their medication adherence habits and consider how they can improve their self-management practices. This may involve developing strategies to stay organized with medication schedules, seeking support from healthcare professionals or caregivers, or exploring new technologies or resources to enhance adherence. For individuals who may have difficulty managing their own medications, this special day also provides an opportunity to discuss and plan for caregiver support. Identifying trusted caregivers who can assist with medication management ensures that loved ones receive the necessary support to adhere to their treatment plans effectively. Healthcare Decisions Day encourages open and honest communication among family members, caregivers, and healthcare providers to ensure that everyone involved is informed and empowered to make decisions that promote optimal health and well-being. So lets all stop and take the time to reflect on our loved ones and how we can be proactive in completing advanced directives to remove the burden from our loved ones. #healthcaredecisionsday #medicationadherence

🌟 💡 Unlocking 500,000 Potential Patient Spots: Shocking potential in BC Healthcare! Doctors of BC has revealed the surprising fact that that approximately 500,000 patients are listed with more than one family doctor. This duplication means that theoretically, there are 500,000 extra spots available for patients if these individuals are assigned to a single physician rather than multiple ones. Addressing this challenge will be crucial in ensuring that patients have a clear and consistent point of care, improving access to family doctors. It's encouraging to see the Ministry taking steps to resolve this issue, aiming to optimize our healthcare system for better patient outcomes. Context: A panel list is a record of patients assigned to a specific family doctor or primary care provider. It helps ensure that patients receive consistent and continuous care from their designated Most Responsible Provider (MRP). There has been a recent program to have all family physicians organize and upload their panel list. Doctors of BC states that 91% of panel lists in the province have been submitted into the Provincial Attachment System (PAS), a significant milestone that allows us a clearer picture of what is happening in BC primary care. By ensuring each patient has a dedicated MRP, we can enhance continuity of care and make more efficient use of our healthcare resources. This initiative represents a significant step forward in our commitment to providing accessible and comprehensive healthcare for all. #Healthcare #PrimaryCare #PatientCare #HealthAccess #MedicalReform #FamilyDoctors #HealthcareImprovement #ProvincialAttachmentSystem #HealthcareInnovation #PatientFirst #BCHealth #CommunityHealth #MedicalMilestone
