Advancing Digital Healthcare to Create Seamless Care Journeys
The global pandemic has been a health crisis to be sure, but it has also presented an opportunity for the healthcare industry, one that may not come around again. Though initially healthcare professionals – like almost everyone else – responded to the pandemic in a somewhat chaotic manner, eventually they found their stride, and with technology and great advances in medicines and the development of vaccinations, were able to care for their patients in a more informed way. This patient-centric care model that is underpinned by data and is values-driven is what is now expected across the healthcare sector. Data …

Delivering Healthcare to Remote Communities
The intention was for the care of patients to be as “uninterrupted as possible,” and this even included the publication of a “playbook and other resources to help physicians.” The first few months of the pandemic in remote locations led to a lot of lessons being learned, many of which “were not anticipated.” In Yukon for instance, in the northwest of the country, “we were very rapidly able to move to providing consultations either over a platform or over the phone, so that was excellent,” and the transition to virtual care was all but seamless. One of the positive but …

Public Sector Innovation Show – British Columbia
Jillian Carruthers says that the four principles of service transformation are: Despite these principles and the identified steps, there really is no guide, manual or playbook. This is emergent work and a lot of it we are processing by feel. Yet despite that, Kevin Ehrman says that service transformation is extremely important because services are how people experience government. Unfortunately though, most of the time it is reactive and generally not in a context which is too pleasant or desirable. This is particularly true and visible when it comes to emergencies. In BC for instance, after a flooding crisis, the …

Health Innovation
For years, the diversity of the residents and communities within the partnership produced a lot of data, though for a long time it was not used to its fullest extent. Nonetheless, it has always been a “real tapestry that shapes a lot of how we think about data quality, and how we work with our community.” Though the network operates independently, it is obviously part of the city of Toronto and part of the province of Ontario. Thus the health teams within Ontario decided to look at all the data that was being collected “to understand where our patients were …

Speaker Spotlight Q&A: Wendy Geller, PhD - Division Director, Data Management & Analysis, Vermont Agency of Education
Wendy’s dissertation findings highlighted shifting demographics in education arenas and labor markets internationally, specific education orientations occurring across cultures, and presented thoughts on the social and spatial forces surrounding rural community viability. Since leaving academia, Dr. Geller has dedicated herself to creating the cultural, infrastructural, and operational conditions required for practicing good data science in the public sector. She lives in Montpelier, VT with her brilliant husband, Alex, their joyful son, Sylvan, and trusty companion, Sir Richard the Lionhearted Dog. Iteration, and the open expectation of failure with view to making something better, together, makes collaboration an everyday activity. It’s …

Local Government and Municipalities Roadshow 2022
As the closest tier of government to citizens, councils across the globe are facing a period of significant disruption. Population growth and change, budget constraints, economic recovery and the rising demands on services are all pressing issues. Whole-of-council transformation is crucial to tackle these issues and become future ready. Local governments need to be agile, innovative and efficient — driving both policy and implementation through coherent and collaborative approaches. Embracing new technologies and streamlining processes will enable councils to better meet core responsibilities and deliver functions, while upskilling employees and increasing operational efficiency will help set them up as an …

The central pillars are “ongoing communication and flexibility.” The other supporting principles include “collaboration and feedback from clients; efficiency and speed, which includes transparency and responsiveness; motivation and shared goals; simplification through the …

Spotlight Interview - Health & Human Services National Insights: Spring
For example, time stressed healthcare providers (HCPs), seeking valuable information to improve patient outcomes, are using HCP-gated product websites where chat bot technology can provide the pertinent information but has the intelligence to escalate to a ‘real’ person when needed. The increase in the number of HCP engagement channels resulted in an explosion of valuable data, for example, data to help understand which HCPs preferred which channels. AIML technology allows stakeholders to efficiently handle and extract actionable insights quickly. The COVID-19 pandemic has accelerated changes in the life sciences industry. In the next 2 to 5 years, self-service of key …
