Recent findings show that these patients carry significant annual rates of CV death and heart failure (HF) hospitalization, despite adherence to quadruple guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and device support. For cardiologists, the challenge is twofold: accurately identifying high-risk individuals without overt clinical deterioration and knowing when and how to intensify therapy in patients who appear stable but remain vulnerable. Recent data show that soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC) may provide significant reductions in CV death and all-cause mortality, particularly in individuals with moderately elevated NT-proBNP (≤6,000 pg/mL). These findings are especially important because this population is far more common in routine cardiology practice and has historically been overlooked in discussions of additional therapy. However, cardiologists often underestimate risk in these ambulatory patients and may hesitate to add therapies when GDMT appears to be working well. Tune in to learn best practices for patient selection and the implementation of added sGC therapy.

Hello and welcome to the SAMOPS Specialty Spotlight podcast. This podcast was created to help inform military medical students about experiences and opportunities in military medicine. We aim to interview physicians either currently in or retired from the military, from all branches of service, in various specialties.Today I have my fellow classmate Rider Calhoun OMSIII here with me to help facilitate a conversation with retired Brigadier General and Emergency Medicine physician, Dr. Robert Suter. Currently, Dr. Suter serves as our Dean of Clinical Integration at Sam Houston State University College of Osteopathic Medicine. We hope you enjoy this honest conversation regarding Emergency Medicine. DISCLAIMER: All the opinions presented in this podcast are our own and do not reflect the opinions of any branch in the U.S. Military or the Department of Defense.
Let's be honest: the decision to go into a treatment program can feel terrifying. You're juggling work, kids, a million invisible tasks—and the idea of raising your hand and stepping away (even briefly) can feel impossible. What if people judge you? What if your boss notices? What if your partner uses it against you? What if the moms at the bus stop whisper? Here's the truth I wish someone had told me: the fear of getting help is almost always louder than the reality of it. I was much more worried about what people might think if I stopped drinking than I ever was about showing up hungover on a Tuesday. (Make it make sense, right?) To pull back the curtain and demystify treatment, I sat down with Jana Wu, Director of Clinical Integration at Mountainside Treatment Center and a mom in recovery who's helped women navigate every pathway: detox, inpatient, PHP, IOP, outpatient, medication—without shame and without blowing up their lives. I asked Jana to share how to choose the right level of care, what modern programs actually look like, and how families can support—not sabotage—your healing.

In the episode of Ageless Future, we discuss groundbreaking exploration of Fecal Microbiota Transplantation (FMT) led by Drs. Jason Klop and Shaina Cahill from Novel Biome. They detailed how FMT is revolutionizing treatment for chronic, treatment-resistant conditions—ranging from GI disorders to neurological and autoimmune diseases—by restoring gut microbiome diversity. The discussion covered rigorous donor screening protocols, the three-phase treatment process (pretreatment, loading dose, maintenance), and why FMT outperforms probiotics. Real-world case studies showed improvements in digestion, cognition, sleep, and immune balance, with continued benefits months after treatment. The session also tackled treatment logistics, safety concerns, microbiome testing, and protocols for maintaining long-term success through diet and lifestyle. The collaborative concluded with strong enthusiasm for education, ethical sourcing, and integrating FMT into functional practices. www.agelessfuture.com

In this episode of the Move to Value Podcast we catch up with Colleen Hole, Vice President of Clinical Integration in Population Health at Atrium Health to learn about the new partnership with the retailer Best Buy, the impact of the merger of Atrium Health and Advocate Aurora Health on the Hospital at Home program and Colleen's experience as a presenter at the global Hospital at Home Congress held in Barcelona Spain.You know, the last time we talked, we talked about the Hospital at Home program, and you gave some great information. A back story. And so, how's it going? Is it still a benefit to the community? Is it still being used in the ways that it's supposed to be? I mean, how is it? How are things transpiring?I would say we're continuing to gain momentum in the program. So, as we talked about several weeks ago, it was born out of the COVID crisis if you will. For that, I am grateful for the pandemic because in most large somewhat risk averse organizations these things don't happen very easily. You tend to meet and meet and meet and then finally maybe put together a proforma and do a small pilot. We bypassed all of that. We did a big pilot, um, out of necessity. So, what we're doing now really is pivoting from COVID, which is now less than 10% of our patients, to other diagnoses which I think I mentioned last time: heart failure, COPD, various infections, but then going into oncology, neurology, surgical trauma. Other patient categories that even some established programs I think are not pursuing. Bottom line is we've not been diagnosis specific in this program. We've been more general clinical eligibility first, by clinical condition, and then what diagnosis fit in it. And then obviously once we've got a clinical clearance, you got to look at the social determinant of health and all social determinants of health and all those other factors that play into whether the patient would be successful. But no, it's going great. We have every intention to scale as far as we need to scale to continue to decompress our hospitals. And, your point, it is making a difference in the community. We get a lot of letters and feedback from patients that say please don't ever make me go back to the hospital, I was so much more comfortable here, I feel safe here, I got to be with my dog. You know, that sounds small but it's not small. So again, as we find our population aging with more and more chronic conditions in their senior years, hospitals can be pretty risky places for those patients who are often disoriented, tend to fall at a higher rate, they're at risk for infections, they don't typically eat as well, sleep as well, and they don't move. They tend to stay in their bed with the door shut. Who wants to go down the hall in a hospital gown? So, all of these reasons in most cases make the home a better place for healing.So, we got some big news that hit the media about the partnership with Best Buy and Advocate Health Atrium. How did this come about and how does it work? It's fascinating.Two very large health systems coming together to be one. And looking for the synergies that happen when you do that. Now there are naysayers out there that say stop the madness, health systems shouldn't be merging. They are in Milwaukee, Chicago Illinois market. We're down here in the South, in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and a tad bit of Alabama. So, we're not in, you know, competing overlapping markets. They're almost identical in size.So let me back up a tad. Advocate and Aurora merged four years ago to become Advocate Aurora. Now that has merged with Atrium Health. So, the national name is Advocate Health, but each market will retain their brand that is known in that community. So, we're still Atrium Health. What I've been involved in is just integration work around nursing. So, how do we align nursing around standards both...

In this episode we continue our conversation with Colleen Hole, Vice President of Clinical Integration in Population Health at Atrium Health, about how the Hospital at Home care model contributes to value-based care and better patient outcomes. Colleen, in our last episode we left off talking about holistic patient care in the home. Having cared for several elderly family members myself, I have seen the difference that it made for them to be in familiar surroundings versus being in the hospital. I guess home is where the heart is, right? Would you share with us the Hospital at Home Scope of services being provided?So essentially anything you could receive in a brick and mortar facility, we can do in your home. Short of an invasive procedure or surgery, obviously, we don't do that and advanced imaging like MRI and CT scan, although that technology exists, we're not quite that there yet. But you can get pretty much any medical nursing intervention that you would get in a hospital, respiratory treatments, oxygen therapy wound care, IV fluids, IV antibiotics, chest X-ray, ultrasound, I mean though that's mostly what you're going to hospital for, obviously your medications we provide all of that is provided by 24/7 virtual nursing team. That patient can hit a button and have my nurse pop up on a screen just like a call bell in a hospital. They also get two visits by our community paramedicine or mobile integrated health team, you might hear it called both things, they're in the home twice daily for anywhere from 45 minutes to an hour twice daily. That is absolutely more time than you've got a clinician in your hospital room. You also have a daily virtual visit with the provider who is on camera real time doing an assessment while the paramedic is in the home. We've got electronic stethoscope, they could listen to your heart and lungs, they write orders, and then our nursing and community paramedic team carry out those orders. We also have, just like in a in a hospital, pharmacy, care managers, social work, respiratory therapy, physical therapy, occupational therapy, behavioral health, chaplains, all of those things mostly provided virtually, which we learned how to do now after three years of COVID. The other in-home service sometimes is our therapist, our physical therapy and occupational therapist. But a good bit of their work is done just literally on camera in a virtual visit. So it's hospital level care delivered in the safety and comfort of a person's homeI didn't realize that it was such a comprehensive program. That's pretty amazing that the capabilities for that are there. I think that's definitely a good thing and can you tell me how this model enhances value-based care and what is the typical savings here?So, the purest definition I know of value is the same or better quality at a lower cost. I mean that's maybe oversimplified, but the hospital home actually does that. Our Ed visit, readmissions, mortality, all of those are lower than brick and mortar and our patient experience is higher significantly higher, not surprising probably, right? But when you have the opportunity to actually go where patients actually live, you can address some of those issues that are causing this repeat readmission. When we go to the home and we look in their pill box and it's empty or there's no food in their refrigerator or it's 100 degrees and their air conditioner is broken, you can hopefully address some of those things. Cost wise significantly less costly and there's research out there Mount Sinai has published several have, it's estimated 20% to 30% and maybe more less costly than brick and mortar hospitalization. So again if you think about the drive value how do you deliver the same or better outcomes at a lower cost. This is certainly that.You also just by being in a physical facility utilization tends to be higher. For example, you're in the...
Jana Sizemore joins Mark Reiboldt to discuss clinical co-management arrangements as an alternative alignment model for healthcare organizations and physician groups. Clinical co-management allows physician groups to align with hospitals and health systems without becoming employed or implementing a professional services agreement.

While each situation is unique and different, Jana highlights why hospitals should consider a clinical co-management agreement, how they differ from other forms of alignment, and when to use the co-management structure. Retaining autonomy and independence is a big selling point for independent physician groups considering clinical co-management. The physicians can affect changes to the service line that would improve quality outcomes and patient care at the hospital by developing the service line and improving staff and patient satisfaction.

In this episode we learn about the Hospital at Home care model from Colleen Hole, Vice President of Clinical Integration in Population Health at Atrium Health, responsible for integrating the principles of Population Health and value-based care into clinical and operational practice.Colleen Hole, welcome to the move to value podcastWell thanks Thomas I'm really glad to be here I'm curious Colleen, how did you become interested in population health? Not to show my age but I've been at nursing for many decades and most of those years were spent in acute care in a hospital. And to be honest I think most folks in a hospital just work to get through their shift without really any visibility upstream or downstream as to what brought that patient in or what we're sending them off to. So, we often, not often, always do incredible care in that moment but it's really hard to have visibility into what else is happening in that patient's life that's making them struggle and circling back through our Ed and our hospital. And really, I could see miracles where we save lives every single day but largely in silos, but our patients don't actually live in a silo, they live everywhere else but the places that we take care of them. So about 10 years ago or so clinical integration became a thing, and I was intrigued by that because I saw it as aligning care really across the continuum. Now our focus was more internal, how do we align care within our health system, but it was about providing care like we had been doing but more about coordinating that care among silos. And I always thought gosh there's got to be more to this than just what we're doing here. And then about seven years ago here at Atrium Health we launched population health and it kind of hooked that to the drive to value. And I was lucky enough to be part of that pretty early on and really loved seeing how health systems were starting to take responsibility for what happened outside of hospitals, around food insecurity and livable safe housing etcetera and then the social determinant of health thing became a thing. So, I guess it's evolved over many decades but really excited I think where I see health systems going now with pop health.So, I know that you're involved with the Hospital at Home program can you tell me about this program as just an overview perhaps about how this concept came about?Sure so if you go back 100 years ago where there weren't brick and mortar hospitals much, many patients received what you might call hospital level care in their home. But with Hill-Burton and post-World War Two we built a whole bunch of brick and mortar across the world. But about I guess 30-35 years ago, the concept kind of came back around more in Europe and even Australia, where for various reasons health systems were starting to go back into homes to deliver hospital level care. And then here in America at Hopkins, Dr. Bruce Leff, a gerontologist, started a program there focused on the fragile elderly primarily recognizing that hospitals presented some risk to this population. So he started a small program and even today, it it's not 100 patients per day, but I think of him as the father of hospital at home if you will. And then when the pandemic hit many health systems were challenged with capacity. So it gave all programs a lift and here we are today with over 200 health systems approved for the CMS waiver which covers at full inpatient DRG, a Medicare hospital stay. So lots more to tell about that but it's kind of evolved over the past several decades, but never with the momentum that it us nowCan you tell me a little bit about and give me a timeline about the Atrium Hospital at home program and why it's been so successful?Sure so I was busy doing my population and health work, I also serve as the chief nurse executive of our very large...
