AI Assisted Healthcare Can Help Patients & Reduce Costs by AdviNow w/ James Bates AZ TRT S05 EP27 (243) 7-14-2024   What We Learned This Week: AI Assisted Healthcare by AdviNOW - the future is now Goal is to reduce costs, help patients, streamline paperwork, & give the Dr more time to treat patients Software, AI, Coding = Tech Healthcare Healthcare industry is slow to change to adopt new systems for billing & paperwork Change the Healthcare industry with adoption by Big Providers     Guest: James Bates, CEO AdviNow Medical AdviNow Medical, Inc. James Bates is an accomplished CEO, entrepreneur, and board member who has created and led high-growth results for several technology companies. Presently, Bates is CEO and Founder of AdviNow Medical, the world's first Artificial Intelligence and Augmented Reality driven patient journey platform that nearly eliminates the administrative burden of physicians and reduces the cost of healthcare by 65%. James conceptualized the idea, wrote the fundamental patents, raised the capital, recruited the team, and launched the company. Previously, James was an officer at Freescale / NXP responsible for the ~$1 billion revenues Analog and Sensor Group the world leader in self driving vehicle technologies. Earlier in his career, James founded the Asia Pacific region for Silicon Labs where he was responsible for driving growth that eclipsed $500M in just 3 short years. James serves on multiple boards and advisory boards. Among them is Position Universal a market leader in fleet tracking hardware and software systems where James serves as a fiduciary board member. OptionAgent.ai is a market leading volatility predicting AI that automatically trading hedge fund that delivers above market returns where he is a general partner. James also serves on the advisory board for Arizona State Universities College of Nursing and Health Innovation. James earned his Master of Science degree in Electrical Engineering, from Brigham Young University. He is fluent in Japanese, lived in Tokyo for twelve years, holds nine patents, has written for publications and been a speaker at many conferences. He resides in the Paradise Valley, Arizona, and enjoys family, sports, and particularly hiking.       Company - https://advinow.com/ Augmented Reality and AI – Software for patient experience Central AI Assistant Helps Before, During, and After the Visit A single vendor to collect, transform, and action all encounter data with the power of AI.   We are on a mission to make healthcare accessible and affordable to all by eliminating clerical burden throughout the entire patient encounter   Patient Intake – for healthcare, hospitals, urgent care, Dr office triage, etc   Founded in 2016 to revolutionize healthcare through automation and artificial intelligence (AI), bringing top-tier technology and process design to patient engagement and provider consultation. Our mission is to enable providers to deliver the best on-demand experience while accelerating operations, and are focused on urgent care – an industry that does the same thing millions of times over, and arguably not very efficiently. AdviNOW started in fully automated retail clinics with a medical assistant and remote providers, and built the platform as a digital-first in-person or virtual care that eliminated any steps that AI could augment; however, the “digital front door” is the true problem to solve first. Expanded to a suite of products that work closely together, or work fine as standalone modules – both patient facing white-label solutions and care team-facing. Headquartered in Scottsdale, AZ, and part of the Mayo Clinic Innovation Exchange incubator.           Notes:   Seg 1   Healthcare cost are too high. There are opportunities to reduce cost using technology and software, as much as 50%.   Why are the cost so expensive? There's a large burden on the healthcare system with cost, and this problem has been going on for 30 years.Go back to 1990 and clerical work was 20% of a doctors job. Now it is 70% of their time. This is a massive burden and cost on healthcare overall.   Talking efficiency, the number one way to reduce cost is to reduce the administrative burden and let the doctor get back to working with patients. To help patient stay healthy longer you need to document, what is going on with their health. Currently the doctor has to collect the data.   There is much Admin bureaucracy with the coding for billing, and tracking for insurance companies. To pay the health bills, lots of admin paperwork and over 100,000 billing codes.   Where is the money being spent? Insurance companies only want to pay certain codes. Healthcare industry has been slow to adopt technology.   It is a simple problem that can be solved with a digital front door. Doctor offices do not communicate with each other. Systems like EMR or electronic medical records, are large databases with patients information.   AI could be the solution. AdviNow has AI software to collect the admin data for patients. Keep health records up-to-date with current health literature, treatments, and outcomes. Easier to know the patient history, what labs they need, what imaging they need to get, sometimes even before they meet with the doctor.   Then the doctor would do the consultation with the patient and confirm the data. Doctors can then suggest a treatment plan, and also use the AI software for recommendations. Can also do auto coding and notes for the medical records.     Seg 2   James Bates is the soul founder of AdviNow. In the past, he ran a technology company on self driving cars. The business was sold.   In 2016 James was looking into healthcare companies to acquire. As he reviewed the financials, he learned that the profit margins are very thin in healthcare.   He reviewed a number of urgent care centers for a business contact. He did time studies and cost analysis. Measure how long parts of the business took to take care of and where the physician spent their time.   Overall, the physician was 70% of the cost of the urgent care, but spent 60% of their time doing clerical activities. Very inefficient.   AdviNow was created with the mission to use AI to streamline the healthcare industry. Doctor sees 2 to 3 patients in a day, and could theoretically see a lot more.AdviNow is an AI assistant. Doctor should analyze and document data, but not collect it. Lots of clerical work, needs to be streamlined.   Understanding AI and how ChatGPT was built. Read the whole Internet and did a word count to remember all pages in the Internet and associate with words and data.   AdviNowis an AI software program created different. Learns by natural language, interpret words and sentences from medical text and papers. Determine the relationship between medical literature. what are the relationships between words. They also hired a team of physicians to add an human element to the software.   AdviNow right code, no prompt and this was created pre-ChatGPT. It is generative AI that was also trained on peer review literature.Use the AI assistant to ask questions to the patient. It is not the AI that asks the questions.     Seg 3   Patient journey starts from home.   Scenario 1 Analyze the different scenarios. Does the patient need to go to urgent care or doctor? If the patient needs to go to a doctor schedule an appointment and AI asks questions and does diagnosis at home to determine the severity.   It's a triage at home. what labs or imaging might be needed pre-doctor appointment.   Then the doctor visit the patient is already available to the doctor. The doctor has all the info on visit one.   AI would default to ER if emergency or patient does not like the AI process or needs to call 911.   Scenario 2 Not urgent or upcoming visit could cut down long waits at ER. See a doctor at less cost and more efficient.   Insurance companies benefit from the system and can increase premiums prior to cost rising. US government cannot keep cost from going up. You're dealing with things like population health, demographics and  different risk factors.   There's a fixed amount of money to treat patients and then the doctors office keeps the difference. Data and healthcare system to keep patients healthy vs sick.   All the healthcare industry could benefit from AdviNow. Lower cost overall, and the process would be faster.Communication of patient records in the system, as doctor and specialist sometimes are in the same healthcare group and system.   For example, United healthcare wants to tell you what specialist to go to and may be the cheapest vs Banner health may want you to send you to the most expensive. The system is not even how the healthcare companies work their process.     Seg 4   Future of AdviNow if all healthcare used it, it would cost cut costs and make healthcare free per James.   People like the old system, but could use AI to automate the process. This would get us back to the doctor and patient relationship improving while cost and administration go down.   Healthcare is slow to adopt tech. Payers and healthcare demand efficiency. Cost and efficiency can be different.   Question is if you have to invest and spend money to make money. Mayo clinic is currently an incubator with AdviNow working on a fall automation platform.   HCA or Dignity Health are large companies that are losing billions $ a year. Need to invest now and tech and save money in the long term.   Federal government could mandate doctors offices to adopt the tech. You don't lose jobs in the short term, over the long term you certainly could lose some admin positions.   Hospitals do not make money. Adoption of tech and software by large healthcare companies is a long-term solution. Not all companies are AI scribe.   What is the ROI of the investment? AI does coding. Dr. sees more patients. Patient see Dr. faster. There is a better outcomes and the doctors office gets paid sooner.         Biotech Shows: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Biotech-Life+Sciences-Science     AZ Tech Council Shows:  https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=az+tech+council *Includes Best of AZ Tech Council show from 2/12/2023   Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech-Startup-VC-Cybersecurity-Energy-Science  Best of Tech: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=best+of+tech     ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

Daniel Cooley started his career in RF chip design at Silicon Labs and now leads technology and product development at “the number one wireless supplier” for the Internet of Things. In this thoughtful interview, Cooley explains why adding wireless connectivity is only the first step to completely rethinking product designs and features. He noted that “the home run cases aren't where wireless is the feature; it's where wireless made that product better.” Cooley explains that Silicon Labs' primary goal is to help companies get started with their preferred wireless protocol quickly and efficiently so they can focus on their applications instead of trying to debug the wireless links. Silicon Labs' experience was forged on having “cut our teeth selling more than a billion wireless chips over many, many years.” Our Moore's Lobby host, Daniel Bogdanoff, chats with Cooley about a range of fascinating topics that include: -Building wireless products for “metal benders.”  -The surprising economic benefits of adding wireless connectivity to shelf labels. -An explanation of the Matter protocol and why it is important. -The Silicon Labs partnership with Arduino. -Why the sky is falling…or at least the cloud is coming down. -Reflection on a major project and when Cooley “realized none of it was going to work.” -Why Cooley believes we will see a rethinking of the Internet infrastructure around non-human electronic devices.

There's a new sheriff in town when it comes to the Z-Wave Alliance, a newly formed standards development organization. The new Chairman of the Board of Directors at the Z-Wave Alliance is Avi Rosenthal, whose day job is the Managing Partner of bluesalve partners.I know Z Wave has been around for quite some time, but the Alliance was previously a manufacturer-owned group, and now it's independent. That “launch” comes on the heels of a second supplier being added to the mix. Previously, you had to go to Silicon Labs to get your transceivers. Now that the spec is truly open, other transceiver manufacturers will likely come on line, and Trident IoT is the first to join. To hear more about what this means and where the spec and the Alliance is headed, check out this week's Embedded Executives podcast.

In this episode of Making Markets, Matt Johnson, President and CEO of Silicon Labs, talks with host Daniel Newman about the state of the market, scaling the Internet of Things (IoT), and the impact that red-hot AI has on that part of the company's business. Matt also shares some insight into his role in the semiconductor industry as chair of the SIA, and how the industry has quietly helped the world advance amidst the complexities and challenges of the current geopolitical environment.   

This week's EYE ON NPI is going to Matter a lot to you if you're interested in integrating with the world of IoT devices and sensors that is converting on us, inside the home and out in the world...It's the Silicon Labs MG24 Series of development boards (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/silicon-laboratories/mg24-development-kit) - featuring the Silicon Labs EFR32MG24 series of chips (https://www.digikey.com/short/00892bvf), designed for use with Matter (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matter_(standard)) an open-source connectivity standard for smart home and Internet of Things devices from the Connectivity Standards Alliance (https://csa-iot.org/) formally the ZigBee Alliance. The EFR32MG24 chips (https://www.digikey.com/short/f8z8rbvn) are fully featured Cortex M33's with tons of peripherals, timers, and of course, a 2.4GHz radio that can be programmed to operate as a ZigBee device. That makes it perfect for use in designing low cost, low power, home automation devices that don't need the power and complexity of WiFi. These transports live on the lower 'levels' of the 7 Layer OSI Model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model) Each family of home devices comes with their own transport, and often they come up with their own custom application layer as well. This means that you can't use something made for Alexa with HomeKit unless the developer programmed both. It's caused fragmentation and utter frustration when someone buys a smart light bulb or HVAC controller just to find out that its walled off from the rest of their devices. The goal of Matter is to unify the upper layers (https://developers.home.google.com/matter/primer) so that devices can be discovered and controlled by any kind of hub: from a DIY Raspberry Pi to an official device from Apple, Google/Nest, Meta, or other - much like you can use your Windows desktop or Android phone to view a website designed on a Mac, and hosted on Linux. The biggest companies in this space, Amazon, Apple and Google, have already signed on to make sure that their products adhere to Matter's API (https://csa-iot.org/members/). You, the engineer tasked with creating the next new product line for your company, should be interested in whether or not this "Matters" to you. The good news is that joining an ecosystem means you can make a small device that competes in a 'big playground' of sensors, voice agents, automation tools, and gateways. (https://pages.silabs.com/rs/634-SLU-379/images/Matter_Certification_The_Value_it_Brings_to_IoT%20Devices.pdf) But need to play nicely with the others - not scream in kids' ears, errr... overwhelm the share spectrum resource. We also have to let every device have a turn at commands, and not interfere with their behavior. Thus, Matter certification! Silicon Labs has a white paper on Understanding The Path to Certifying Your Matter Devices (https://www.silabs.com/whitepapers/how-to-certify-matter-devices) Moreover you can get started immediately by picking up one or two of Silicon Labs' MG24 development kits (https://www.digikey.com/short/0rc3n5f7) for less than $40 and you can begin immediately with developing on the EFR32MG24 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/base-product/silicon-labs/336/EFR32MG24A010/629647) a well-documented, low-power friendly chip with built in 2.4 GHz radio. Inside is a Cortex M33 running at 78 MHz, with 1.0 to 1.5MB of flash and 128 to 256KB of SRAM (https://www.digikey.com/short/f8z8rbvn) so it's got plenty of room to handle multiple protocol stacks, security layers and any RTOS or Matter layers. SiLabs has been making radio-inclusive chips for many many years, so you know that there will be great support and documentation. We also have the beginnings of a CircuitPython port for this chip (https://circuitpython.org/board/sparkfun_thing_plus_matter_mgm240p/) although at the time of this writing there is not Matter support built in, it would still be very helpful for bringing up a development board and verifying hardware. Want to take Matter into your own hands? DigiKey has you covered here: the XG24-EK2703A Explorer Kit (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/silicon-labs/XG24-EK2703A/17051436) is a great starting point with USB, mikroBus-compatible GPIO headers, debug port, and Qwiic/QT port. (https://www.digikey.com/en/videos/s/silicon-labs/mg24-development-kit-datasheet-preview) For final integration, you can also pick up raw chips such as the Silicon Labs EFR32MG24A010F1536IM48 (https://www.digikey.com/short/07qww54q) or integrated modules (https://www.digikey.com/short/3n4rp9dt) that have passives and antenna wired up for quick usage. All are in stock for immediate shipment - order today and DigiKey will deliver to you Matter on a silver platter by tomorrow afternoon! Follow it up by watching the DigiKey + Silicon Labs webinar on Matter development and certification (https://event.on24.com/wcc/r/4241172/CE3FB2F9DB2D54D5A47A124701A93047) to get your product out the door ASAP.

What is Thread? Jonathan Hui, Principal Software Engineer at Google and VP of Technology at Thread Group, joins Ryan Chacon on the IoT For All Podcast to discuss the Thread network protocol. They cover how Thread works, the differences between Thread and Wi-Fi, how Thread is improving the smart home, how Thread works with Matter, when not to use Thread, and the IoT challenges that Thread is solving. Jonathan Hui is a principal software engineer at Google, where he is responsible for Thread implementation in products and is maintainer of OpenThread released by Google. Prior to Google, he was a principal engineer at Cisco, where he built some of the world's largest IPv6 mesh networks for urban-scale, enterprise, and utility applications. He delivered the world's first commercial 6LoWPAN networks at Arch Rock before its acquisition by Cisco. Jonathan has also been deeply involved in standards bodies (IETF, IEEE, Thread, and Wi-SUN) and co-authored foundational specifications related to IPv6 in low-power wireless networks. He is also a co-inventor on more than 175 USPTO issued patents. Jonathan has a BS in electrical and computer engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and an MS and a PhD in computer science from the University of California, Berkeley. Formed in 2013, the non-profit Thread Group is focused on making Thread the foundation for the Internet of Things in homes and commercial buildings. Built on open standards, Thread is a low power wireless networking protocol that enables direct, end-to-end, secure, and scalable connectivity between IoT devices, mobile devices, and the internet. Because Thread is IP-based, it seamlessly integrates with many environments, apps, devices, and clouds. The Thread Group provides a rigorous certification program to ensure device interoperability and a positive user experience. Thread is backed by industry-leading companies including Amazon, Apple, Google Nest, Lutron, Nordic Semiconductors, NXP Semiconductors, OSRAM, Qualcomm, Siemens, Silicon Labs, Samsung SmartThings, Somfy, and Yale Security.

This week's EYE ON NPI is an EYE in the SKY, as we're featuring our first NPI from Skyworks: the Skyworks Si3404 and Si3406x Power over Ethernet [PoE] Powered Device Chips (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/silicon-laboratories/si3404-and-si3406x-power-over-ethernet-powered-device-chips). PoE is a standard, supported by many Ethernet hubs and switches (https://www.tp-link.com/us/solution/poe/) that allows a device connected to the hub to request +48V power over some of the Ethernet lines in Cat-5 cabling. Since many devices need Ethernet for speed and reliability - cameras, phone systems, printers, standalone monitors, and door entry systems, for example - you only need a single cable. These chips, originally from Silicon Labs and now made and sold by Skyworks, allow product designers to quickly add PoE support to their Ethernet products, saving space, complexity and wiring because a separate power supply is no longer needed.e First up, if you're wondering: "wow Skyworks, where have I seen that name before?" That's right! It was the California fabrication facility (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Such_Great_Heights#Music_video) where The Postal Service's Such Great Heights video was shot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wrsZog8qXg). The original video even featured the Skyworks logos on the chips - now it's blurred out. But that's a great excuse for us to mention that there's a Postal Service/Death Cab 20th Anniversary Tour this fall and we are definitely getting tickets (https://giveuptransatlanticismtour.com/). But back to PoE chips! We watched a discussion video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tEhbVpYFvk0) about the history of this chip line, we were struck by the observation that the reason PoE is so popular for office buildings is that it's very disruptive and expensive to get electricians to run power outlets everywhere. But running Ethernet can be done by the IT department because the voltages are so low that no special licensing or permitting is needed. Ethernet can be run behind drywall, around door frames, or under drop floors without worrying about electrocution or fire hazards. And you don't have to worry about DC plug adapters or voltage mismatches. The Si3404 can provide up to 13W (https://www.digikey.com/short/49dqqh9m), the Si3406 can do 25W (https://www.digikey.com/short/35jn99tc) but are otherwise very similar. Other than a few passives and full-wave bridge rectifiers, you only need the flyback inductor-transformer (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/switching-converter-smps-transformers/168) - for isolated setups, it's a little more complicated. The Si3404 can also perform as a non-isolated buck converter for very small and low cost designs. The output voltage is set by a simple feedback resistor divider. Designs are compact, less than 1 square inch, for most use cases. Both the Skyworks Si3404 (https://www.digikey.com/short/49dqqh9m) and Si3406 (https://www.digikey.com/short/35jn99tc) are in stock right now at Digi-Key for immediate shipment. There are also eval boards (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/silicon-laboratories/si3404-and-si3406x-power-over-ethernet-powered-device-chips) that come with buck/flyback/isolated setups so you can test them as replacements for your current power supply to make sure which schematic you'll follow. Order them today for immediate delivery - through the Postal Service or whatever your favorite carrier may be - and you'll be making your IoT designs easy-to-power by tomorrow afternoon!

 With travel and supply chain uncertainty, it's more important than ever to adopt a nimble, adaptive approach to events. Garrett Burnett, Head of Global Events at Silicon Labs, says that one of the most important traits of an events professional is adaptability. It's not IF something will go not according to the plan, it's WHAT. An effective events person is ready with plan B and C without skipping a beat.Never has this trait been more important (and more put to the test) than in these early post-Covid times. Between airline staffing shortages, new Covid outbreaks and supply chain issues, there are a lot of external forces impacting events as normal. There's also lots of room for learning, growing and retooling. During the episode, Garrett walks us through SI Labs approach to industry events in 2022-2023, their user conference WorksWith, and innovative approaches to webinars and workshops. You'll hear the outcome of his recent trip to Embedded World in Germany, and how SI Labs is bringing live and interactive elements to their virtual developer conference. We also debate event success metrics, how to extract more value from event content, and basically geek out on all things events -- one of my favorite marketing topics. For show links and more, visit the Content Marketing, Engineered podcast blog https://bit.ly/CMEPodcast Learn more about TREW Marketing https://www.trewmarketing.com Order the book!

We got some samples of Nanjing Qinheng Microelectronics http://www.wch-ic.com/ CH9102F and it's pretty much a drop in replacement for Silicon Labs https://www.silabs.com/ CP201x USB to serial chips. A new driver install is needed but its the same pinout and package - great for us because we're having difficulty getting CP210x chips in enough quantity to keep our stock of ESP32 Feathers available for sale! We tested it on Windows and a Mac M1 to make sure uploads at 921kbps still work - next up we'll see if it works on Linux. If so, you may see some of our boards come with this chip in the adafruit shop soon.
