Podcast appearances and mentions of tonya winders

In this episode of Quality Matters, Tonya Winders, President and CEO of the Global Allergy and Airways Patient Platform (GAAPP), joins host Andy Reynolds to unpack the diagnosis and care gaps that plague asthma treatment—from delayed access to spirometry, to underuse of biologics. Tonya explains what high-quality, patient-centered asthma care requires, and what health care leaders can do to close that gap.Tonya also discusses: Why a definitive diagnosis of asthma isn't necessarily the norm.What the “three-legged stool” of asthma care looks like.Why patient-centricity is essential for chronic disease management.How new treatments like biologics are changing what's possible in asthma treatment.This podcast is a must-listen for anyone working to redesign care delivery and improve outcomes for patients with chronic respiratory illness.Key Quote:“We are finding in that moderate to severe category, when they are diagnosed accurately and get appropriate access to targeted treatments, about one in three go into a clinical remission, where they have no exacerbations, no symptoms, no hospital, no ER, no oral corticosteroids, no use of short acting bronchodilator. This is something that, I have to tell you, I never dreamt would come in my career. So, it's very exciting, especially for those that have had the opportunity to access these miracle drugs—that's the term they use, miracle drugs—that have changed their lives and given them the freedom to breathe.”Tonya WindersTime Stamps:(04:00) Diagnostic Delays: Spirometry and Systemic Barriers(05:44) How Age and Comorbidities Obscure Asthma(08:00)  Challenges of Misdiagnosis and Access to Specialists(10:28) The Three Legs of Effective Asthma Care(18:20) NCQA's Measurement Strategy for AsthmaLinks:NCQA White Paper: Improving Outcomes for People with AsthmaConnect with Tonya Winders

Thirty-five years ago, Nancy Sander started a conversation that has grown into a public health movement. She was struggling with her young daughter's severe asthma and was not getting the support she needed from her doctors and insurance provider. She reached out to other parents and more enlightened medical professionals to learn ways to manage a chronic health condition that if untreated can lead to death. Nancy founded the Allergy and Asthma Network, which has grown into a collective voice for the 25 million Americans who suffer from asthma. And the Network is a force for change in communities, state legislatures and on Capitol Hill. It is now led by the indefatigable Tonya Winders, who is guided by what the data reveals. Asthma is a disease with both genetic and environmental roots. Black, Latino and Native American communities have been subjected to environmental degradation over decades and are disproportionately impacted by asthma and lung disease. The Network brings a racial equity lens to every aspect of its work. Its powerful partnerships, from barbershops to Congress, are making transformational change possible.  

In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks chats with Tonya Winders, CEO of the Allergy and Asthma Network, an organization that represents millions of Americans, about the relationship between asthma and COVID-19.

She will also discuss what her organization prioritized during the pandemic to address COVID. In addition, she will provide information on the types of tools her organization offers for folks struggling with asthma and allergies and talk about advances being made in research, the social determinants of health that lead to worsening asthma and her thoughts on lifestyle changes and steroid treatments.

Recently, the CDC released new guidelines in the fight to prevent Legionnaires' disease. With recent outbreaks of Legionnaire's throughout the country in Flint, Michigan and Bronx, NY, the maintenance of a building's water system is more important than ever. The guidelines are a huge step forward to help building owners control Legionella bacteria once it has entered their buildings from the public water supply and help prevent uncontrollable deaths from the disease. Today we will speak with Tonya Winders, President and CEO of the Allergy & Asthma Network, the leading nonprofit patient education and advocacy organization for people with asthma, allergies and related conditions. We will discuss what Legionnaires' disease is; why the Allergy & Asthma Network supports the new guidelines; how Legionnaires' disease can cause asthma and respiratory problems; and the importance of being aware of the disease to prevent hundreds of deaths each year.
