TeleMed Partners joins imminent telemedicine boom

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Nov. 22, 2010 Malibu, California. Prof. Victor S. Dorodny, MD, is realigning his 17-year-old health care policy, economics and information technology consulting company, Health Pro Worldwide, Inc., and refocusing on the hot fields of health information technology (HIT) and telemedicine. The new company, TeleMed Partners, with almost two decades of expertise, fosters strategic partnerships between HIT manufacturers, medical service providers, consumers, and payors. Its first consulting client is US Tele-Medicine of Beverly Hills. “The current US health care system needs to expand the use of Health Information Technologies (HIT) and Telemedicine. The system emerging in the wake of new health care legislation will crash without it,” says Dr. Victor Dorodny. “Adding thirty million health care consumers, while mandating extended coverage, combined with increased demand for health care from the aging baby boomers is straining the system at the seams. Telemedicine seems to be our best viable alternative to provide health care for the ever growing needs of the consumer, especially the chronically ill and aging. I have no doubt that health care delivery in the US will change dramatically in the next ten years through the adoption of telemedicine. We are in the convergent space defined by medicine, information, and technology, and plan to work hard on integrating them for the benefit of the health care system.”

Prof. Dorodny, MD, ND, PhD, MPH (www.DrDorodny.com) President of TeleMed Partners, was one of the creators of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA). He has served on the Advisory Board of the Assoc. of Medical Director of Information Systems and the National Assoc. of Managed Care Physicians. He conceived, designed, and led development of Knowledge-based Health Information Systems (KbHIS©) operational databases for healthcare organizations. He has consulted for the Joint Commission for Accreditation of Hospital Organizations, the National Association of Consulting Pharmacists, the National Pharmaceutical Council, and the FDA, and is internationally recognized for advancing electronic health record technologies (EMR, EHR, PHR), and promoting confidentiality and security of health information.

The AMA stands in the way of nationwide implementation of HIT!?

2010-12-20T10:32:00.000-08:00

Washington, D.C. – The American Medical Association (AMA) urged the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to revise the Medicare e-prescribing penalty policy in a letter sent to HHS Secretary Sebelius.

AMA asserts that this policy, which would penalize physicians in 2012 if they don’t e-prescribe in the first six months of 2011, "will hurt efforts to implement widespread health IT adoption among physician practices and cause them to take on needless financial and administrative burdens".

Such assertion could not be further from the truth, as implementation of e-prescribing will foster widespread use of HIT, and specifically electronic medical records (EMR). Implementation of e-prescribing will reduce incidence of medication errors, reduce complications of multi-pharmacy and will significantly reduce fraud and abuse of prescription medications.

The facts are in direct contradiction to statements by AMA Board Secretary Steven J. Stack, M.D. regarding the issue, as not aligning these programs will ultimately delay physicians’ efforts to adopt a complete EHR.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services ( CMS) has said that physicians cannot receive incentives from both the Medicare e-prescribing incentive program and the Medicare EHR incentive program simultaneously. However, if physicians choose not to participate in the 2011 e-prescribing program, they will face penalties in 2012 and 2013

Once again, the once relevant organization ends up with an egg on its face. I guess the Board of AMA as utilized the same due diligence philosophy used in its ill-fated commercial endorsement of Sunbeam products without testing what it was putting its stamp of approval on..

Dr. Stack, for one, makes me proud of having the foresight to quit AMA in 1981!

Not anecdotal any more--State of California loses medical information on 2,500 Californians!

2010-12-16T14:06:00.000-08:00

Over the past 18 years of advocating and working towards adequate protections of privacy and confidentiality of health/medical r records/information, I have published at least two dozen of bleaches of patient identifiable information.

Most losses are due either to intentional and just negligent violation of existing protocols and procedures by the employees of health care organizations (on all levels), or lack of proper technological barriers to prevent losses, or a combination of both.

The latest massive breach comes courtesy of the California Department of Public Health (CDPH), which reported losing data for more than 2,500 facility residents, department employees and other health-care workers to state authorities this week.

The lost information was stored on an unencrypted magnetic tape, and included everything from employee emails and background information on health-care workers to the names and diagnoses of health facility residents and social security numbers for both employees and patients. In September 2010, the tape was sent from a CDPH field office in West Covina to the central office in Sacramento via the U.S. Postal Service; while the envelope that was supposed to have contained the tape arrived, it was unsealed and empty.

The standard procedure for handling such media containing personal medical information of thousands of Californians is to have all patient-specific data encrypted at a proper level, and the tape/CD itself to be send by insured and bonded carrier.

CDPH is "not wasting any time" and is taking "immediate corrective measures" to mitigate the consequences by “…notifying anyone who may have been affected by the breach”.

Most of these problems could be avoided by implementation of a robust and secure Electronic Medical Record(EMR) or Electronic Health Records (EHR). That is why TeleMed Partners are working hard to promote and implement such systems on all levels of health care.

In a mean time, if concerned with security of your health/medical data/information, please call the CDPH at (916) 558-1784 to inquire as to who and how is safeguarding your medical information?

We gripe, you decide.
