Chapter 1 What's Parent Effectiveness Training by Thomas GordonParent Effectiveness Training (PET), developed by Thomas Gordon in the 1960s, is a comprehensive approach designed to assist parents in fostering better relationships with their children through effective communication. The program emphasizes the importance of active listening, respectful dialogue, and problem-solving skills. Gordon's methods focus on understanding children's needs and feelings, promoting self-directed learning, and encouraging children to express their thoughts and emotions freely.The PET framework advocates for a non-punitive approach to discipline, shifting away from traditional authoritarian methods to a more collaborative family dynamic. Parents are taught to engage in cooperative problem-solving sessions, helping children learn accountability and responsibility while strengthening their emotional connections. The training includes practical exercises, role-playing scenarios, and real-life applications to ensure that parents can effectively implement the strategies in their daily lives. Overall, PET aims to develop a supportive environment that nurtures children's emotional and psychological well-being.Chapter 2 Parent Effectiveness Training by Thomas Gordon SummaryParent Effectiveness Training (PET) by Thomas Gordon: Summary Overview: Parent Effectiveness Training, developed by psychologist Thomas Gordon in the 1960s, is a program designed to help parents improve their communication and conflict-resolution skills with their children. It emphasizes the importance of fostering a nurturing environment while encouraging children to express their feelings and develop a sense of responsibility. The program combines principles of psychology with practical approaches that are easy for parents to implement.Key Concepts: Effective Communication: The foundation of PET is effective communication, which involves active listening, empathy, and openness. Parents are taught to focus on understanding their children's feelings and perspectives without immediately reacting or correcting them.I-Statements: Gordon emphasizes the use of "I-statements" instead of "you-statements" to express feelings without placing blame. For example, saying "I feel frustrated when you leave your toys out" is more constructive than saying "You never clean up your toys."Conflict Resolution: The program teaches parents how to manage conflicts positively. The goal is to resolve issues in a manner that respects both parent and child needs. Gordon introduces a conflict-resolution model to help parents find mutually acceptable solutions through discussion and negotiation.Problem Ownership: Parents are encouraged to help their children learn to own their problems. Instead of solving every issue for their children, parents should guide them toward finding their own solutions. This builds children's confidence and decision-making skills.Active Listening: Active listening is a critical skill emphasized in PET. Parents are taught to listen intently to their children's concerns and feelings, reflecting back what they've heard to confirm understanding.Parenting Styles: The program highlights different parenting styles (authoritative, permissive, authoritarian) and promotes a collaborative and accepting approach that fosters children's independence and self-esteem.Program Structure: PET workshops consist of a series of sessions where parents learn through discussion, role-playing, and practical exercises. The curriculum covers the concepts mentioned above and provides tools and activities to practice these skills. Outcomes: Research suggests that parents who undergo PET report better relationships with their children, lower levels of conflict, and increased satisfaction in their parenting roles....

As is customary, HUD released its annual report on homelessness at the end of 2024. It revealed a startling year-over-year increase in homelessness among individuals and families in the United States. Among the devastating data, there were bright spots such as a decrease in homeless veterans. But the reporting and punditry surrounding the report was less than stellar, and the news was buried in a matter of days. Crucially, some of the worst reporting on HUD’s findings came from left wing media sources who pointed to immigration as one of the drivers of the increase, conveniently and uncritically parroting conservative talking points while ignoring the more pertinent narratives.

Rob Abbott, CEO and Executive Director at ISPOR, the Professional Society for Health Economics and Outcomes Research, focuses on defining and measuring value in healthcare, including accessibility, affordability, effectiveness, and patient outcomes. HEOR (health economics and outcomes research) can provide data-driven insights to guide healthcare decision-making, reduce bias in research, and consider a broader range of factors like social determinants of health. This can improve treatment adherence, align therapies with what matters most to patients, and support the evaluation of technology used for treatments and predictive analysis of new therapies.   Rob explains, "I'm excited at both the legacy of work that health economics and outcomes research has contributed to, but I'm particularly excited about the extent to which health economics and outcomes research can provide data-driven insights to highlight health interventions that provide the best health outcomes for the investment made. This is good for managing the expenditure of public resources. Still, even more so, data-driven insights can help us lead to better health outcomes, better treatment protocols, and better health outcomes for patients." "As health economists and a professional society representing health economists and outcomes researchers, I think we know that historically, we have defined value quite narrowly in terms of a person's physical health, for instance. But we know that increasingly the concept of whole health or a more holistic approach to health is gaining a lot of traction. So, we are actively engaged in expanding the definition of health to include access to housing, social connections and networks, healthy food and lifestyle choices, and things of that nature.

Disease. Sickness. Malady. These are words that can truly send a chill down the spine as they bring us to the reality of the fragility of life and our proximity to the brink of death. Greek physician Hippocrates, known as the "father of medicine" from the 4th century BC, was the first known person to investigate the reasoning behind disease and its relationship with environmental factors. What exactly is a disease? Is there a common denominator of why they happen? Is there a way to evade sickness and possibly attain everlasting life? In this episode, we investigate the science and nature of sickness with a disease scientist, specifically in light of the current novel coronavirus pandemic. We are joined today by Dr. Katrine Wallace, also known as Epidemiologist Kat, a scientist with expertise in epidemiology, research methodology, biostatistics, and science communication. She received her PhD in Epidemiology from the University of Illinois at Chicago, where she currently serves as an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Epidemiology and Biostatistics.

Dr. David Penson, Chair of the Department of Urology at Vanderbilt University, discusses his comparative effectiveness research in prostate cancer. In the second of our two-part prostate cancer series, we delve deeper into the world of prostate cancer treatment decision-making. Dr. Penson discusses the emotional and informational hurdles that patients face, as well as the importance of patient education, understanding patient preferences, and the ongoing battle against overtreatment in prostate cancer.  Key Highlights: Importance of informed decision making and arming patients with accurate and reliable information. Understanding the concept of patient preferences in treatment decision making. Overcoming decision biases and how the emotion of a cancer diagnosis can outweigh a rational decision-making process. About our guest: David F. Penson, MD, MPH is the Hamilton and Howd Chair in Urologic Oncology, Director of the Center for Surgical Quality and Outcomes Research and Professor and Chair, Department of Urology at Vanderbilt University. He currently maintains a clinical practice in urologic oncology at the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center.  While his general research focus is clinical epidemiology and health services research across all urologic disease, his specific interests include the comparative effectiveness of treatment options in localized prostate cancer and the impact of the disease and its treatment on patients' quality of life. Key Moments: 4 minutes: On the clinical shift to active surveillance. “We have this situation where we were over diagnosing. Half the men who were detected by PSA screening at the turn of the century were overdiagnosed, depending on how you defined overdiagnosis. And they were all getting treated. So you had this terrible problem where we were just kind of treating everybody. I think what we've learned is that, in fact, not everyone with prostate cancer needs to be treated. That PSA picks up a lot of clinically indolent prostate cancer.” 24 minutes: On determining a patient's priorities: “The cancer control and cure piece is not quite as clear [with radiation] because you're not pulling the cancer out. So you don't have the psychological benefit of knowing what you're dealing with. And it's very hard to do surgery after radiation. So it becomes this set of options, a set of what's important to you, right? So patients may not walk in the door saying, ‘I have a preference set.' But as you start talking to them, their preference set becomes relatively clear. And when I talk to them, I say, ‘Listen, I can tell you what I would do,' because a lot of times they say, ‘Doc, what would you do?' But the problem is, I can't take Dave out of Dr. Penson, right? So I have my own set of preferences.” 36 minutes: On emotional vs. rational decision making. “But I think it's very hard to sort of turn down the emotional volume because the word ‘cancer', any human hears that, and it scares you. Right? That goes back to what we were saying before about maybe we shouldn't be calling Gleason 6 cancer, cancer. Because there's a charge that goes with that word that freaks people out.” This episode was supported by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and features this PCORI study by Dr. Penson.

Dr. David Penson, Chair of the Department of Urology at Vanderbilt University, discusses his comparative effectiveness research in prostate cancer. He talks about the evolution of Prostate Cancer awareness in the US, and historic screening and side effect issues that have made it a stigmatized topic for many men. Dr. Penson describes the nuances of PSA testing and how higher diagnosis rates of Prostate Cancer has led to overtreatment in the past, and the current shift to focus on active surveillance is helping to better balance the treatment paradigm for men with Prostate Cancer. Key Highlights: What is comparative effectiveness research and why does it matter to cancer patients? The evolution of the stigma associated with Prostate Cancer. How to think about the nuances of PSA screening tests. About our guest: David F. Penson, MD, MPH is the Hamilton and Howd Chair in Urologic Oncology, Director of the Center for Surgical Quality and Outcomes Research and Professor and Chair, Department of Urology at Vanderbilt University. He currently maintains a clinical practice in urologic oncology at the Vanderbilt-Ingram Cancer Center.  While his general research focus is clinical epidemiology and health services research across all urologic disease, his specific interests include the comparative effectiveness of treatment options in localized prostate cancer and the impact of the disease and its treatment on patients' quality of life. Key Moments: 6 minutes: What is CER and why does it matter? “Comparative effectiveness research has been around forever. People have different names for it, but it's comparing the effectiveness of various interventions for a condition. I've been focused in prostate cancer, so a lot of what I'm focused on is comparing the effectiveness of surgery and radiation and, for that matter, active surveillance in outcomes in prostate cancer.” 21 minutes: How cultural differences impact stigma. “In the US, prostate cancer is much more common in Black men. And the way they respond to the diagnosis may be different than other cultural groups. Hispanic men have another way of looking at it, white men, etc. So you do have this cultural element to it too, because sexuality and body image is often tied to cultural norms.” 31 minutes: The nuances of PSA screening. “The American Urological Association just came out with new recommendations around screening and does say, discuss screening, but doesn't say everyone should be screened. They've sort of started talking about getting a PSA test in your mid-40s, because there's pretty good literature that a baseline PSA test will establish your pretest probability of clinically significant prostate cancer in your lifetime. But the other thing that they mentioned is they basically say we should probably not be doing annual screening with PSA testing, probably every other year. Because less may be more here.” This episode was supported by the Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) and features this PCORI study by Dr. Penson.

Jennifer Quinn, Head of global pricing and health economics and outcomes research at Debiopharm, emphasizes the importance of reimbursement, not just regulatory approval, for a drug to be available to patients.  With patient-centered outcomes research, drug developers can use data for risk-benefit assessment relevant to regulators that reflect how patients consider the risks and whether they will undergo a procedure. Jennifer explains, "My team really tries to make sure that, when we're thinking about a clinical development program, we make sure we're capturing those value markers throughout from a very early stage. That is so that when someone out-licenses it and becomes our partner, they have the data they need not just to get through regulatory approval but to have the drug reimbursed and made available to patients." "It's so important that patients have not just the agency in their care, but we understand how treatments are impacting patients -- impacting their lives, impacting how they feel, impacting their activities of daily living. I think that is what patient-centered outcomes research encompasses: patient preference, patient functioning, and patient feeling. If we don't do that, we are not patient-centric in our drug development because we're missing this crucial part. A drug might shrink a tumor this much, or it might give you this many fewer bleeds if you're a hemophilia patient, but what does that mean to the patient? How does that impact them?" @DebiopharmNews #Debiopharm #DrugDevelopment #Biotech #PatientCare #PatientCenteredOutcomesResearch Debiopharm.com Download the transcript here

Relentless Health Value
Encore! EP326: The Unfortunate News About HRRP, With Insight Into How to Fix It, With Rishi Wadhera, MD, MPP

Relentless Health Value

HRRP stands for Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, by the way. I wanted to encore this episode with Dr. Rishi Wadhera because it's a great representation of a common root cause reason why quality metrics sometimes don't end well in real life. This root cause is otherwise known as Goodhart's Law, and we dig into Goodhart's law later on in this healthcare podcast. But the actual and ultimate impact of HRRP is also a pretty good representation of the consequences, what happens, when you create a blunt-force policy that assumes hospitals with very different circumstances are the same. Before we kick in to the episode, I asked Dr. Wadhera, my guest today as aforementioned, if there'd been any updates regarding HRRP since this show originally aired last year; and he told me that two key pieces have come out this past month in JAMA journals calling out CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) to move on from/retire this policy: A Decade of Observing the Hospital Readmission Reductions Program—Time to Retire an Ineffective Policy Readmission Reduction as a Hospital Quality Measure: Time to Move on to More Pressing Concerns? Thanks so much to Dr. Steve Schutzer and also BoneDoc66 for your really nice reviews this past month. So appreciated … thank you so much! And here is your encore. Today's guest is Rishi Wadhera, MD, MPP. Dr. Wadhera authored a retrospective analysis in the BMJ about the HRRP, which we will talk about in this healthcare podcast. Dr. Wadhera is a cardiologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. He also has a master's in public policy at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and also a master's in public health from the University of Cambridge. But here's the larger epiphany that pertains to all value-based care and all quality metrics which Dr. Wadhera brings up in this healthcare podcast and which my nerd heart could not love more: Goodhart's Law. This law is the root of so very many problems. Goodhart's Law is this (which I learned from Dr. Wadhera): “When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.” In other words, when we set a goal, people will try to take a shortcut to the goal, regardless of the consequences. And sometimes the consequences, paradoxically, are to do worse at the goal. Maybe because bean counters and admins and maybe even goal-oriented clinicians themselves will go right to the end goal, inadvertently skipping a whole bunch of (it turns out) rate-critical steps. For example, teaching to the test may not lead to students who deeply understand a subject. And anyone trying to achieve value-based care success, improve quality, form collaborations, or make sales might want to remember that old proverb, “Sometimes the shortest way home is the long way around.”   You can learn more at Dr. Wadhera's Harvard Catalyst profile and the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Web site.   Rishi K. Wadhera, MD, MPP, MPhil, is an assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, a cardiologist at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC), and the associate program director of the cardiovascular medicine fellowship at BIDMC. He is also health policy and equity researcher at the Richard A. and Susan F. Smith Center for Outcomes Research in Cardiology. Dr. Wadhera received his MD from the Mayo Clinic School of Medicine as well as an MPhil in public health as a Gates Cambridge Scholar from the University of Cambridge. He completed his internal medicine residency and cardiovascular medicine fellowship at Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston. During this time, he also received a master's in public policy (MPP) at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, with a focus on health policy. Dr. Wadhera's research spans questions related to healthcare access, quality, and disparities, as well as understanding how local, state, and national policy initiatives impact care delivery, health equity, and outcomes. Dr. Wadhera has published more than 80 articles to date, and he receives research support from the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) and the National Institutes of Health (NIH)   03:30 What was the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program intended to do? 05:22 Why did the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) think some readmissions were preventable? 06:02 “The spirit of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program was to incentivize hospitals to improve … discharge planning, transitions of care, and post-discharge follow-up and care.” 06:58 How has research in the last few years changed the thoughts on the effectiveness of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program? 08:16 “The 30-day readmission measure—it's an incomplete measure.” 11:48 “I think patients … are smart, and they know what's going on.” 13:34 “What's happening is, we're just increasing the number of times they need to come back to the ER within that 30-day period.” 13:55 “The weird thing about the HRRP is that when it evaluates hospitals' 30-day readmission rates, it's a yes-no phenomenon.” 15:03 “What CMS does is, it risk adjusts … and that is what we should be doing.” 18:30 “This program has been incredibly regressive.” 19:04 “Poverty, neighborhood disadvantage, housing instability—these factors are out of hospitals' control.” 21:50 “Blunt policies like this that are rolled out nationally probably elicit mixed behavioral responses.” 22:06 “It just makes no sense to take resources away from hospitals.” 22:32 EP295 with Rebecca Etz, PhD. 23:47 What's the way to improve quality of care globally? 25:37 “CMS's approach to improving quality of care has really anchored … [that] to payment.” 26:08 “It's time for us to rethink what our approach to quality improvement should be.” 29:22 “Policy makers have an obligation to rigorously test the impact of these types of policies before they roll them out nationally.” 31:41 Can you scale healthcare nationally?   You can learn more at Dr. Wadhera's Harvard Catalyst profile and the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center Web site.   @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission What was the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program intended to do? @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission Why did CMS think some readmissions were preventable? @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “The spirit of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program was to incentivize hospitals to improve … discharge planning, transitions of care, and post-discharge follow-up and care.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission How has research in the last few years changed the thoughts on the effectiveness of the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program? @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “The 30-day readmission measure—it's an incomplete measure.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “What CMS does is, it risk adjusts … and that is what we should be doing.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “Blunt policies like this that are rolled out nationally probably elicit mixed behavioral responses.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “It just makes no sense to take resources away from hospitals.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission What's the way to improve quality of care globally? @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission “It's time for us to rethink what our approach to quality improvement should be.” @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission Can you scale healthcare nationally? @rkwadhera of @BIDMChealth discusses #HRRP on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast #digitalhealth #vbc #hospitalreadmission   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

Today I want to highlight the work of another pharmacy and entrepreneur colleague, Dr. Stephanie Young Moss (aka “Yomo”). She caught my eye on Instagram, where she shines her light on wellness, family dynamics, pharmacy practice, and disparities in healthcare. A practical tip that she shared in the episode has stuck with me, about how learning goes both ways. For example, shadowing allows healthcare students to learn from professionals, but the mentors also get the opportunity to learn. A relationship with someone different than you helps you understand where they're coming from and how you can serve different populations. Dr. Stephanie received her Doctor of Pharmacy degree from Xavier University of Louisiana College of Pharmacy and a Masters of Health Services Administration with a concentration in Health Economics from The University of Wyoming. She has worked in various areas in pharmacy, Community, Regulatory Compliance, Managed Care, and Health Economics and Outcomes Research. Over the past 20 years Dr. Moss has advocated for decreasing disparities in health care through her volunteer work. She uses her platform to educate families across the U.S. on ways to decrease and eliminate health disparities by incorporating simple wellness and mental health techniques. Dr. Moss has shared her views on international and national podcasts and local television news stations. Dr. Stephanie is the creator of the website www.drstephanieyomo.com where you will find practical health and wellness tips, ways to reduce healthcare disparities and simple tips for health and wellness professionals to enhance their presence on social media so they can stand out in their niche, build a successful brand and advocate for important causes. She is also the owner of Integrative Pharmacy Outcomes and Consulting, which focuses on educating underserved communities on ways to reduce and prevent health disparities. For nearly 2 decades, Dr. Stephanie has served on various boards and volunteer organizations that focus on health equity, decreasing implicit bias, addressing social determinants of health and empowering communities to advocate for their health. She has served on the boards for The Minority Health Coalition of Marion County and Eskenazi Health Center where she has served as the Clinical Quality Committee Chair, Board Secretary and is currently the Board Treasurer. She resides in Indianapolis, Indiana. You can connect with Dr. Yomo on all social media (@Dr. Stephanie Yomo) and www.drstephanieyomo.com. Learn more about your ad choices.
