Access to quality healthcare shouldn't depend on your zip code, yet for many underserved communities, barriers remain.In this episode of Straight Out of Health IT, Christopher Kunney interviewed Christopher Cruttenden, CEO of Safety Net Connect (SNC), a company providing digital healthcare tools like eConsult to improve access to specialty care for underserved populations. SNC connects medical, behavioral, and social service providers to enhance equitable healthcare access. Cruttenden highlighted major challenges in providing equitable care, including medical and food deserts, time constraints for working families, and long wait times. He emphasized the burden on patients, especially those with chronic illnesses and other socioeconomic challenges.Regarding technology's role, Cruttenden advocated for collaborative, patient-centered solutions integrated into healthcare workflows. He noted the importance of AI in supporting physicians, particularly through AI-assisted dictation, coding support, and quality assurance to enhance efficiency. By improving access to care, reducing ER visits, and enabling timely interventions through tools like eConsult, the cascading effect leads to better patient outcomes and system-wide savings. Cruttenden also discussed the concept of Return on Value (ROV) over traditional ROI in public health.eConsult operates in regions like LA County, Colorado, and through partnerships with other providers. It facilitates remote consultations, allowing specialists to provide timely input, reducing wait times and preventing unnecessary specialist visits. Cruttenden expressed excitement about expanding the model to address Social Determinants of Health (SDOH) issues, such as smoking cessation and food insecurity. His advice for public health organizations is to embrace technology thoughtfully, focusing on its ability to improve access and patient outcomes rather than just its capabilities.Tune in to explore how innovative digital tools are transforming healthcare access and improving outcomes for those who need it most!

James and Jessica from SomX breakdown the best stories from this week's newsletter.
In this month's episode we visit Dumfries and Galloway, the latest stop in our trip around the regions. We speak with Dr Neil Kelly, a familiar voice on the SNUG podcast, and discuss life in the South of Scotland and how things are going with preparations for GP system change, how the local project team and facilitators have become confident in managing the change, and the importance of supporting staff during the transition. Neil has reduced his GP leadership workload and developed a new interest in farming, but still has plenty of reflections on the evolving nature of general practice, the increase in telephone consultations, the occasional trivia of eConsult requests and why video consultations haven't taken off. We discussed some of the difficulties with integrating systems like digital dictation, ECGs, and spirometry into the new IT environment, due to budget limitations. He's impressed by Heidi Health, which shows promise in saving time through note-taking and digital dictation, and also discusses the potential benefits of Digital Dermatology, with his practice being one of the early adopters. Neil remains optimistic about the future of general practice in Scotland, contrasting it with the more corporate approach in England. He points out the positive impact of additional support staff like pharmacists, mental health nurses, and the importance of having GPs handle complex tasks. Despite fears of GPs being replaced by other practitioners, Neil believes GPs remain highly efficient and cost-effective. Listen to the end for some wine and book recommendations!

We last spoke with GP Dr Paul Bennett way back in December 2019 BC (before Covid) when his Porchester based surgery was in the process of trialling new and innovative ways of meeting and managing patient demand. Fast forward to almost three years later; post pandemic, within a rapidly evolving general practice landscape, and with the pressure to provide more appointments at an all-time high, Paul and his team have had to adapt and improve their previous strategies, to offset the needs of their patient population against decreasing numbers of medical professionals. In this week's podcast instalment, Paul talks Ben through the new systems they have embedded to manage the challenge of capacity and demand, and why he feels that in Porchester, they are able to offer a safer, more streamlined, and equitable service. Introduction (10 secs) What's been happening since we last spoke to Paul? (47 secs) How does the ‘pod' system work? (2 mins 5 secs) The role of the Care Navigator (2 mins 25 secs) eConsult platforms and eForm creation (2 mins 44 secs) Breaking down the two components of demand (3 mins 34 secs) Managing patient access (4 mins 38 secs) Allocation of a designated pod team (5 mins 30 secs) Management of those requiring urgent treatment (6 mins 5 secs) Transferring patients from routine to urgent care pathways (8 mins 22 secs) The red flag form (9 mins 19 secs) Forms for more specific conditions and concerns (10 mins 4 secs) Aligning the process within the wider network (11 mins 40 secs) Managing triage, decision-making and proactively signposting patients (12 mins 25 secs) Development of the case managers and the pod team skill mix (13 mins 9 secs) Positive impacts and lessons learned (14 mins 44 secs) Measuring outcomes (15 mins 53 secs) What have been the main issues or problems? (16 mins 26 secs) Reaction from the doctors to newer ways of working (17 mins 18 secs) Next steps (19 mins 9 secs) Finding out more and getting in touch (20 mins 37 secs) If you'd like to find out more about the systems in place at Westlands Medical Centre, Paul's is contactable here.

One of the big areas of interest at the SNUG members' day in May was the increasing use of digital systems for communicating and consulting “asynchronously” and how these are changing the face of general practice. In this episode, we have highlights from two of the talks discussing issues around online consulting. Thomas Dodd is a training partner for AskmyGP and he discussed some of the popular myths about online consultations – for example that patients prefer face to face rather than online contact, yet online services will also submerge GPs with new demand. Dr David Cooper, the co-chair of SNUG and a user of eConsult, describes why he is a big advocate of online consulting and why his practice has found it hugely beneficial in maintaining services throughout the pandemic. We pose the question: are we now at a similar moment in weighing up the pros and cons of providing a new means of access to care online, as doctors were in the 1880s when the advent of the telephone also offered new and better access to medical care? These workshops can be seen in full, with slides and questions and answers at the SNUG website.

A short while ago automated consultations with doctors were conducted over Skype and used video, but this doesn't solve the problem. Dr. Murray Ellender of eConsult explains to Guy Clapperton why the format needs to change - and looks to adopt a new model for sustainability. Note to non-British listeners: "GP" or "General Practitioner" is what we call a family doctor in the UK; NHS is a common abbreviation for National Health Service, the state-run health service in the UK. If anything else isn't clear to you in this podcast, it's my fault!
A live guide to several primary care Digital First consultation providers facilitated by Dr Minal Bakhai of NHS England and with live demos of each platform and the opportunity to ask questions.
As we continue to develop new ways of working in Scottish general practice, face to face consultations are no longer the norm. Many practices are making much greater use of telephone and video consultations and good triage systems are essential to help patients use services most effectively. eConsult (@econsult_thinks) from WebGP is a platform which provides new and easier ways for patients to get help with a problem - whether through self help, online advice or via telephone, video or face to face contact where appropriate. It is all requested online through the practice website - which removes the need to phone the practice. This episode features a discussion with Dr Kris McLaughlin of Stonehaven Medical Group who spoke to Dr Andrew McElhinney of SNUG, along with other members of his practice team, to discuss the details of how best to get eConsult up and running, and what practical issues need to be addressed.What is eConsult, and how does it work? eConsult demo siteLet us know if you have any comments on Twitter at https://twitter.com/snusersgroup or Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/scottishnationalusersgroup
Appointments in General Practice- A digital guide Welcome Live episode, please interact Intoductions Todays episode inspired by chat on NHS Digital Whats App group about appointments and access 2 themes to cover…. What is an appointment? And what will count as activity Total triage, before and after - what is the best option for the practice and its patientsUp-coming document from NHSE will set out how NHSE will harvest/access data from CRMS (S1/EMIS) to assess activity within general practice to the level of individual surgeries. Information such as number and type of appointments. Led to speculation about how this data will be used in the future…..Concerns that used to judge practices and that incorrect or unfair conclusions might be reached?Used to allocate resources? Correctly? Similar concernsRegulatory attention?Use by the media?What constitutes as an appointment? Online / Telephone /video/ F2f / Administrative activity? - would this be covered by online/asynchronous? How do we log workload in practice, everything have an appointment slot ie oncall work/ admin etc. Supervision/ second opinion / Administrative tasks (non patient content but often time consuming) Dichotomy of primary vs secondary care contracts - PBR vs capitation based contract.

Connect with Carlos Reines: Linkedin Twitter Website * * * Full Transcription: Carlos: I think I always had an easy one because my dad’s name is Carlos as well. I don’t think they had to break that too much. Tanya: That’s great, so they followed the wonderful Spanish tradition on naming. Carlos: Yeah, absolutely. Tanya: That’s Carlos Reines, Harvard grad and entrepreneur who raised $20 million for his startup RubiconMD, an eConsult platform that connects clinicians to top specialists. Now serving over 5,000 primary care physicians in 37 states in the US, RubiconMD has saved over 2.5 million days of patients waiting for specialist consults, which turns out to be almost 7,000 years. Carlos: I grew up in Madrid. Actually, all my family is in Madrid. I was born and raised there, lived in the center of the city for the first few years, and then we went to the suburbs when I was about 5 or 6. I’ve really been in Madrid most of my life. When I was 22 is the first time that I went to study abroad. Through different work experiences and educational experiences, I’ve ended up spending time in the Netherlands, in Germany, and obviously, a lot of time in the US. Tanya: If you were to describe yourself as a kid, how would you describe yourself? Carlos: I was the only child, only nephew, only me, no cousins, for ten years. My mother is the oldest of six. On my dad’s side, his uncle never had children, so for about ten years, I was there by myself. I was getting a lot of love from the entire family. Tanya: I can imagine. Carlos: At the same time, I was dying to get some folks around. I wanted to have cousins. I wanted to have siblings. In Spain, there is a big tradition in Christmas that the Three Magic Kings will bring you games and toys, and when I was a kid and I would write my letter, I would never ask for any games or toys. I just wanted to have a brother or a sister. I wanted to have that for a long time. It never happened, so I grew up as an only child. At some point, my parents had friends that lived outside of Madrid, and their son moved to Madrid for college. He was about five years older than I am, and he went to live with us. For three years, all of us had – I had an older brother, and it was an awesome experience.

Gil Ado and Carlos Reines are the co-founders of Rubicon MD, an innovative medical eConsult service that connects primary care doctors to same-day insights from top medical specialists. Their mission is to provide better health care through their online platform that enables primary care doctors to easily and quickly access medical specialists and have online consultations (eConsults) and ultimately provide better direct care to patients. With a fragmented US healthcare system, Gil and Carlos identified a need in the market for access to specialist medical care that didnt require patients to physically be in the same room with their specialist doctor. After a lot of networking and hustle, Rubicon MD was officially birthed in 2013. >> Show notes Link: https://www.businessgenerals.com/gilandcarlos (https://www.businessgenerals.com/gilandcarlos) >> Today Rubicon is a strong, growing Venture backed Healthcare startup, which has successfully raised over $19M in funding since 2014. The company is scaling at pace throughout the US now with over 5,000 primary care providers using the platform. The two Harvard Business School graduate co-founders partnered up to launch Rubicon on a mission to facilitate the provision of a higher level of care to patients who may not have access to specialist care due to them not having private healthcare or geographical limitations. The platform allows general practitioner doctors to have direct access to expert specialist help on a case by case basis through e-consult process. Doctor to doctor interaction via the e-consult platform is one of their biggest wins – patients that would have previously been referred to the emergency department for specialist consultation now receive access through the eConsult process through their primary doctors, and as Gil says this is real tangible benefit that clinicians and patients are excited about. The business launch and the first paying customer In 2013 the business was launched with the first key goal being to prove that there was value in the platform and that patients would be able to access greater healthcare through the platform They put a basic minimum viable product from a technology platform standpoint, they found a doctor who was willing to trial the platform and it run for a few months with a few hundred eConsults and the feedback was very positive The founders joined an accelerator program focusing on how to build a business around the idea and how to find the people who could potentially buy into your idea Talked and networked to as many people in the healthcare eco system – learning, doing the research and also selling the idea at the same time Discovered that groups that are at risk, ie taking care of primary health care patients will be most interested in this Pivoted on the fact that there was limited supporting data for the idea so focused on finding the companies that were ready to take some risk in this space as well Their first paying customer contract was from Boston, Gil and Carlos share with excitement how this client has grown and stayed with Rubicon MD for over 4 years, a testament in their minds to the value RubiconMD brings to the clinician. Cash flow during the start up phase Carlos was still completing his https://www.hbs.edu/Pages/default.aspx (Harvard MBA) at the beginning but working full time in the business, Gil was also full time in the business but they were scraping by and keeping everything very lean financially It was a difficult beginning for the business, so they had to run their operations in a very lean way but they were determined to see the vision come to life The duo managed to live through the first startup phase through their savings, family support and just sheer tenacity to make it through the early days Access to funding 2013 accessed their first seed money from an angel investor, this was enough to run their pilot After this started...
