Listen to 55 Future Now Lots happening in the AI universe this week, including Sun’s quite humorous report with examples of Google’s faux paus in the name of woke culture.  EMO by AliBaba is scary-good at taking any source image plus audio and making the image look like they are saying/singing the audio. This can bring to life any decent picture of a person, ressurecting dead friends and relatives, putting words in anyone’s mouth. EMO is not released yet, but should be out in time for fun shenanigans with the upcoming presidential election..We also discuss the law suit between Elon Musk and OpenAI, a big issue when it comes to the public being aware of what’s actually going on with the rise of AGI, Artifician General Intelligence.  Could that holy grail alread exist in the form of Q*, or perhaps even Sora, OpenAI’s formidable entery in the text to video arena? We discuss.   Some great space news this week, including sonification of several interesting areas of interest in space, and a very cool interactive 3D map of the solar system, including the planets, moons, asteroids, space probes, and many earth satellites, all in real time! In the medical world we are excited to report of a blood test that works for some forms of dementia, such as Altzheimers.  Bobby shares a use of biographical video recording that helped his mother, when she was suffering from dementia, and discusses Methylene Blue, a long time compound that seems to stimulate the brain’s neurons by increasing mitochondrial function.  Enjoy!

Dignity for Deeply Forgetful People: How Caregivers Can Meet the Challenges of Alzheimer's Disease with Stephen G. Post Ph.D. How do we approach a "deeply forgetful" loved one so as to notice and affirm their continuing self-identity? For three decades, Stephen G. Post has worked around the world encouraging caregivers to become more aware of―and find renewed hope in―surprising expressions of selfhood despite the challenges of cognitive decline. In this book, Dr. Post offers new perspectives on the worth and dignity of people with Alzheimer's and related disorders despite the negative influence of "hypercognitive" values that place an ethically unacceptable emphasis on human dignity as based on linear rationality and strength of memory Stephen G. Post, PhD, is the bestselling author of Why Good Things Happen to Good People: How to Live a Longer, Happier, Healthier Life by the Simple Act of Giving. The British Medical Journal designated his book, The Moral Challenge of Alzheimer Disease, a medical classic of the 20th century. Post is among a handful of individuals awarded the Distinguished Service Award by the national Alzheimer's Association. In 2001 he founded the Institute for Research on Unlimited Love, which researches and distributes knowledge on kindness, giving, and spirituality.

Today's guest, Dr. Hu, is leading the research on the use of NuCalm with various populations in China. From the benefits of NuCalm in the elderly, Alzheimers, Parkinsons as well as children with Autism or ADHD. Tune in for a fascinating discussion on the results she has been seeing as well as how her NuCalm business is growing.   Introduction quote “I don't know how you manage that in the U.S., but here, if you see a teenager is very anxious, the parents will say ‘No! he is fine, it's normal to have stress.' So that will be an argument and we'll say OK, let's help your child to get better grades, to get to a better school, a better college. And that's exactly what they need.” — Dr. Hu   Guest bioDr. Xiaoyan Hu graduated from the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences & Peking Union Medical College, majoring in Biochemistry and Molecular Neurobiology. During her PhD, Dr. Hu took neuroscience as her lifelong research direction. In a blink of an eye, two decades have passed, but the passion about neuroscience has never changed. After graduation, she went to the U.S. for her postdoc training. Dr. Hu worked at the University of Washington School of Medicine, followed by Cornell University School of Medicine as a senior neuroscientist. In addition to the research at medical school, Dr. Hu has been working as a volunteer in the community since the second year of her visit to the United States, and has established two non-profit organizations to provide various health science education for Chinese immigrants in the American Chinese community. In order to provide better service for the community, Dr. Hu studied social services, nutrition, natural medicine, sociology, psychology, and neuro-linguistic programming. Due to this special experience, Dr. Hu made many friends in natural medicine and other fields which laid the groundwork for her later work in China.   Key Takeaways [1:00] David welcomes Dr. Hu and invites her to share her life story and what brought her to dedicate her life to others in such a powerful way, from a childhood head injury that left her unable to walk to a Ph.D. and becoming an instructor at Cornell Medical College.   [8:38] Dr. Hu shares the work she has been doing in order to help the people ever since moving back to China, from non-profits to launching businesses to investing in education and since this year, NuCalm!   [12:04] How often does Dr. Hu use NuCalm?

There is some evidence to suggest that fats like coconut oil could indirectly result in higher levels of a protein called acetylcholinesterase. There is some evidence to suggest that fats like coconut oil could indirectly result in higher levels of a protein called acetylcholinesterase. Researchers have found that the level of acetylcholinesterase is higher in people with Alzheimer's disease and current treatments aim to lower the level of this protein. Recent studies suggest that some organic foods and products like coconut oil may be able to prevent dementias like Alzheimer’s.  We’re always reading the latest tips on prevention — eat right, reduce stress, get plenty of exercise and keep your brain engaged in challenging activities. As far as diet, coconut oil continues to receive a great deal of attention. For best results, experts suggest organic, cold-pressed, non-hydrogenated, virgin coconut oil — and don’t let the word “oil” frighten you. Coconut oil is a heart-healthy oil that is free of cholesterol and trans-fats, and provides many benefits in addition to improving brain health. Alzheimer’s disease is a devastating illness that affects over 27 million people worldwide. It is the more prevalent form of dementia, which is a loss of cognitive ability. The symptoms of Alzheimer’s include confusion, short term memory loss, mood swings, and difficulties using language. Eventually, the brain becomes so damaged that bodily functions become impaired, leading to death. Tune in for the rest of the Story.  

What does Zimmet Healthcare actually do? Zimmet Healthcare is a consulting support firm specializing in skilled nursing facility reimbursement, compliance and strategic planning. Initially started as a service vendors creating cost reports and appeals for Medicare and expanded as the industry has matured. Zimmet Healthcare currently employs about 60 people servicing about 300 facilities across the country. Do you see a significant trend in the reimbursement method for SNFs from when you started out to today? There's a complete shift in SNF reimbursement. To be frank, clinical reimbursement is a complex topic and the goal of this conversation is to get a better understanding of the big picture, the coming changes and how they will affect day to day operations of your nursing home. With that in mind, let's go back to Marc's answer. In the earlier days, reimbursement was based on the costs a facility incurred when caring for a particular resident. The more the facility spent on the resident, the more was their reimbursement within reason. This is now changing to a model that is based on price and not cost. There is a fixed rate per day for a residents' condition, diagnosis and plan of care. The facility will get reimbursed at that rate regardless of the actual costs incurred by the facility. Why is Medicare Changing the Reimbursement Methods? One of the biggest challenges with the current PPS/RUG method of reimbursement is that there is too much of an emphasis on the therapy received by the resident. For example, if there are to residents who receive the same level of therapy, the facility will receive similar reimbursement for them even if one has significant other clinical challenges (such as wound care or cognitive issues etc.). PDPM - Patient Driven Payment Model PDPM which is starting October 2019, enhances the reimbursement sensitivity of the all the different payment drivers and takes the focus away from therapy as the primary driver of payment. PDPM Vs. RUGs To understand the difference in reimbursement consider the following. We are going from a RUG system which has 66 RUG scores (of which we only use 20 or so of them), to PDPM which has almost 29,000 rate composite possibilities, which boils down to 15-20,000 rate combinations that will actually be used. In simpler terms, with more words in the language we can be that much more precise. How Does This Affect the MDS Process? The MDS job description will change a bit. There will be fewer assessments, however, it will require working more extensively with the other disciplines. Whereas in the past the reimbursement was driven primarily by therapy and ADLs, now the other disciplines will play a significant role in the reimbursement process. For example, dietary will need to capture a mechanically altered diet. The psychologists, respiratory therapists and others will play a large part in this process. Who is Pushing for These Changes? The federal government is pushing for these changes. MedPac (The Medicare Payment Advisory Commission) has been almost begging congress and CMS to implement a patient specific payment model that does not recognize the frequency and duration as the payment driver because it provides an incentive to over treat the patient. Is the Government Trying to Save Money With This? Theoretically, this is supposed to be budget neutral. It's a redistribution from facilities that focus primarily on the therapy intense patients, to facilities that take the sicker, more compromised patients on the vents and trachs. The medically complex patients reimbursement will go up considerably and the therapy intense patients will go down. Will Facilities Make More Money in PDPM? Zimmet Healthcare expects that facilities will get better at taking credit for the care they provide and in the first year Medicare will actually spend more than their budgeted amount. This will be followed by a rate reduction that will recalibrate the dollars to make it budget neutral. So perhaps in year 1, the facilities that learn and implement programs to accurately take credit for the care they provide, may make some extra money. However, once the rate is adjusted, it should remain budget neutral. Who Gains by These Changes? Ultimately, these changes are indeed in the best interests of the patient. The problem with the system is that you almost have to provide a high level of therapy in order to keep your doors open. Let's take the dialysis patient as an example. In the RUG reimbursement model, the facility would lose money. The rates are simply inadequate. Facilities would try an aggressive treatment approach where they would take the resident to therapy early in the morning knowing that the resident will not be able to tolerate the therapy on their return. With PDPM, this will not be necessary because the other clinical challenges will be considered as well in the reimbursement rate. What is Changing in the Medicaid System? Being that Medicaid is not a national system, and each state runs their own program, it's difficult to speak about the specifics of the program. However, in general terms, Medicaid started out as a cost based model, many states then went to a case mix and acuity model, to a priced based system and finally to managed care. This is not universal but is the general trend. More importantly, every state has x number of dollars to spend on their Medicaid program. The main concern is not the distribution of reimbursement for the program, rather, it's the overall total funding of the program. An astute operator will learn to maximize their Medicaid reimbursement dollars in any Medicaid system. The problem lies in the total dollar amount that the state allocates to the Medicaid program. Are the Articles That State the Amount a Nursing Home Loses Per Day Accurate? It may be true that the rates are inadequate, however, the facility was never going to be profitable just by the reimbursement payments. In order for a facility to be profitable they will need a good short term rehab census as well. This together with the Medicaid payments can make the facility viable and profitable. If the facility was 100% filled with Medicaid patients with the right acuity mix, and everyone had Medicare Part B you would not be losing $37 a day. Is Owning and Operating Nursing Homes Still as Profitable Now as it was 25 Years Ago? In the early 90's it seemed like a really simple business to run. Nowadays, it's a very complex business. Today, there is tremendous potential in the post acute care continuum which SNFs are such an important part of, is where the opportunity lies. In post acute care management, there real opportunity to meet the new demands of the new nursing home residents. A stand alone nursing facility that is well managed can absolutely be a profitable business and serve the community well. Where are Those Baby Boomers? We are always being fed information by the media that with the baby boomers are coming of age and nursing homes will have to scramble to meet the need. While in reality, nursing homes are struggling to survive due to lack of patients. As mentioned earlier, there are a variety of variables that are causing this to happen, including the push to provide for these elders within the community. However, the statistics do show a sharp increase in the Altzheimers disease in the coming years of which 75% of those over 80 will need to be admitted to a SNF. That is something that will significantly increase the utilization of SNF care and should sharply affect the overall occupancy.
