Village Health Partners Launches Park Prescription Concept


Village Health Partners believes that by empowering patients to explore recreation resources in their area, more patients will be able to thrive with lessened need for expensive medications and other burdensome treatments.

Village Health Partners has a rich connection to the North Texas community, building on local partnerships for the past 11 years. The physicians at Village Health Partners collaborate with a team of local dietitians, counselors, pharmacists, and many specialists to care for patients. In recent years, Village Health Partners has expanded its partnerships beyond a traditional medical scope and has teamed up with local businesses and nonprofits to promote whole-person wellness. Comprehensive healthcare takes a village, and Village Health Partners is committed to furthering these local partnerships to empower patients with additional options that elevate their care.

Village Health Partners is proud to announce its newest partnership with the City of Plano to actively promote Plano Parks and Recreation Services. In addition, with the City of Plano’s support, Village Health Partners providers will begin the regular use of park prescriptions to encourage an active and healthy lifestyle. Park prescriptions will include a map of City of Plano parks and suggestions for activities that patients can enjoy at parks throughout Plano.

“In today’s healthcare environment, too many patients are put in a position to receive care that is not on their terms,” Chief Operations Officer Patrick Figures said. “Village Health Partners believes that by empowering patients to explore recreation resources in their area, more patients will be able to thrive with a lessened need for expensive medications and other burdensome treatments.”

Providers at Village Health Partners will begin utilizing these prescriptions as part of the care plan physicians create for patients and will be used to supplement other recommendations from the physicians.

“Village Health Partners is promoting a care plan that every Plano resident has access to – regardless of financial means,” Figures said. “By helping to connect our patients to these services and encouraging increased time and energy outdoors, we believe we’re making the best possible investment in the future of our community.”

Playonwords.com Presents Their Fall 2019 PAL Awards


News Image

You are a force for play (and toys and time with family that matter)! Thanks for all you do for our children.

Play On Words LLC, led by highly respected speech language pathologist Sherry Artemenko, announces 2019’s Fall PAL Award Winners, the toy industry’s only recognition directed by a credentialed speech-language expert recognizing the language learning edge in exceptional toys, games and media. Sherry’s 35 years of child development experience with over 17,000 hours working with kids empower her PAL selections, video reviews, popular blog, media appearances (NBC Connecticut, FOX News Milwaukee), and consulting practice.

I continue to be fascinated by the impact parents’ play with kids has on language development, a concept reinforced by recent research. What parents say and how they talk during play can make a difference. By simply using a strategy called “Toy Talk” where parents talk about the toys and give the toy a name, they up their grammatical models to their child and improve the growth trajectories of certain areas of their child’s language development. Toys are the tools for a child’s play which is why I’ve spent my career calling out the toys with the best language learning potential and coaching parents on how to play with their child to maximize learning.

Playonwords.com helps toy brands and consumers alike see the strategic value of language learning in play through its helping to build vocabulary, foster cooperation, express emotion, kindle creativity and expand descriptive and problem solving capacities. The PAL Award on the internet, packaging and in print media differentiates brands who know the marketplace now demands products that are not only fun, but also infused with learning potential. The gold seal with three smiley faces tells customers that more than great entertainment is to be found behind the box, book cover or app license.

EARLY DEVELOPMENT: Sherry’s experience in pediatric speech therapy has given her an eye for the best products to build attention, vocabulary and concepts through play, preparing children for their first sounds, words and sentences. While fishing in the bathtub for pop-up fish, opening and closing latches and doors to learn counting, vocabulary and colors, or playing a surprise game that grows bubbles on the back of a sneezing sheep, kids learn essential early language skills.

  • Hape Double Fun Fishing Set
  • Latches & Doors Busy Board by VTech
  • Learn & Groove Shakin’ Colors Maracas by LeapFrog

READING AND WRITING: Building with letter blocks that access an electronic cube to teach pre-literacy skills, seeing your name repeated in print throughout a fun personalized book, or exploring the human body with an interactive video stylus that captures the workings inside, all help children pick up essential skills to advance reading and writing.

LANGUAGE STRUCTURE, CRITICAL THINKING AND REASONING: These outstanding products can build language structure, critical thinking and reasoning, often teaching vocabulary, concepts or grammar while delivering fun. Chase the eagle across the map of the United States, learning critical facts about parks, monuments and historical places while relating your own experiences, or put on your chemist cap and experiment with arctic options to make a chill thermometer, cold lava or glistening snow slime, analyzing and recording your findings to strengthen communication skills.

STORY-TELLING / PRETEND PLAY: Whether piloting a mighty jet command center to come to the rescue, captaining a pirate ship while loading the cannon or walking the plank, or serving up a tempting treat in a play kitchen with sink, range, oven and chalkboard to write your menu, children enter the world of pretend, creating their own stories with plenty of flexible props to guide their imagination. Oral story-telling precedes writing as kids learn the steps to create a good narrative.

  • Myla the Magical Unicorn by VTech
  • PAW Patrol Mighty Jet Command Center by Spin Master
  • Smart Sizzlin’ BBQ Grill by LeapFrog
  • Treasure Seekers Pirate Ship by VTech

SOCIAL LANGUAGE: Complementary to pretend play, social language blossoms when children play with toys and games and interact with media that encourage extended social interactions. Matching and identifying facial expressions to start the conversation about our own emotions and situations that sparked those feelings, or teaching a pretend plush friend how to be kind, brave, and help others, can equip kids to better name, understand and manage their emotions, leading to stronger EQ’s.

ABOUT PLAYONWORDS.COM

Playonwords.com was founded by well-respected speech-language pathologist, Sherry Artemenko. Her 35 years championing language rich play, esteemed PAL Award, popular blog, and insightful tips to parents set her apart as the leading advocate for the language component in toys.

  • Kids with highest IQs at three, had the most words at one and two
  • Language learning is cumulative – early words => early sentences => language & reading
  • Most kids maintain their verbal advantage through childhood
  • Creative pretend play that sparks story-telling can advance future literacy

Sherry established the PAL Award to identify unique toys, games and books that through their design, quality and character, encourage play that advances language. PAL winners in the hands of kids, spark fun and creative play with lots of talk. Such toys, recognized on the basis of her child development expertise, are complemented by practical coaching in her blog, showing parents, caregivers and teachers how to get the most from toys, games and books to build language and underlying cognitive skills.

LiveWell TMS Brings Breakthrough Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Depression Treatment to Huntington Area


https://www.prweb.com/

Dr. Nina Greif of LiveWell TMS

We are already seeing a positive impact with NeuroStar TMS. It’s giving our patients a chance at remission from their depression and enabling them to live their best lives.

LiveWell TMS, a new depression treatment facility, announced today it will host a grand opening event on Thursday, October 24, in celebration of its new location and in honor of National Depression Awareness Month. Co-founded by doctors Nina and Eric Greif, LiveWell TMS specializes in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). According to a recent study by the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, depression diagnoses are rising in New York.

LiveWell TMS opened its doors in August 2019 to provide an innovative, non-drug treatment to Huntington residents struggling with depression who are not seeing relief with antidepressant medications alone. The practice uses NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy TMS, which uses magnetic pulses to awaken areas of the brain that are underactive in depression. , With its cutting-edge technology, NeuroStar Advanced Therapy offers doctors real-time feedback and delivers enhanced care with precise and accurate targeting, providing reliable and consistent treatment.

Dr. Nina Greif is a board-certified psychiatrist with more than 10 years of clinical expertise treating patients at clinics, hospitals, private practices and in a consulting capacity. Dr. Eric Greif is board-certified neuro-radiologist who focuses on interpreting neuroimages of the brain and spine. In their new roles at LiveWell TMS, they take a holistic approach to care and practices an integrative model of treatment for each and every patient.

“Depression is on the rise in our own backyard, and alternative treatments for those struggling and not seeing relief from antidepressants are in greater demand than ever before,” said Dr. Greif. “We are already seeing a positive impact with NeuroStar TMS. It’s giving our patients a chance at remission from their depression and enabling them to live their best lives. It is important to spread the word and educate about proven non-drug options like this one.”

NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is widely covered by major insurance plans and is available by prescription. The treatment is typically administered daily in a doctor’s office for four to six weeks, with treatment sessions performed in as little as just under 19 minutes.* Unlike electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is non-invasive and allows patients to resume daily activities immediately following treatment sessions. It is also free from systemic side effects often associated with antidepressant medications.

LiveWell TMS’s upcoming educational open house event will take place on Thursday, October 24 from 4 to 7 p.m. at its facility located at 120 New York Avenue, Suite 6W, Huntington NY 11743. The event is open to the public and attendees will have the opportunity to learn about NeuroStar TMS, tour the office, speak with LiveWell TMS physicians, and hear patients share their testimonials about the treatment.

About NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy

NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy is the market leader in transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive form of neuromodulation. NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is the #1 TMS choice of doctors for patients with MDD, and is widely available across the United States.

NeuroStar is widely reimbursed by most commercial and government health plans, including Medicare and Tricare. In addition, there are programs in place, such as NeuroStar Reimbursement Support, to help patients and providers obtain coverage and reimbursement for NeuroStar Advanced Therapy.

NeuroStar is indicated for the treatment of MDD in adult patients who have failed to receive satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode. In an NIMH-funded, independent, randomized controlled trial, patients treated with TMS using a clinical-trial version of the NeuroStar TMS System were 4.2 times more likely to achieve remission compared to patients receiving sham treatment (P = 0.02; odds ratio = 4.05). The most common side effect is pain or discomfort at or near the treatment site, which usually resolves within one week. It is contraindicated in people with non-removable conductive metal in or near the head.

Kim K.’s Tipsy Baby Revelation Highlights the Importance of Discretion for Surrogacy Agencies, says Global Surrogacy Services


https://www.prweb.com/

Whether or not intended parents are in the public eye, they and their gestational surrogates have the absolute right to maintain a zone of privacy, says Global Surrogacy Services.

“Both intended parents and surrogates have the right to determine where and how much information they care to reveal.”

A September 4 article on Us Magazine reports on last winter’s earlier-than-planned public revelation of the imminent arrival of Psalm West – the third child Kim Kardashian and husband Kanye West have had via gestational surrogacy. It turns out that the source of the leak was Ms. Kardashian herself. “I told someone at Christmas Eve and I don’t remember who because I was drunk,” she says in a bonus clip from the recent season of “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.” The reality superstar says that she has given up drinking as a result. Global Surrogacy Services says that one of its primary aims is to let the intended parents involved in a parental journey make their own decisions about how much information they want to share, who they want to share that information with, and when they want to share it.

Both intended parents and surrogates have the right to determine where and how much information they care to reveal and protecting that right is one of its most important duties, says Global Surrogacy Services. Of course, celebrities and VIPs typically have very special needs in this area. The agency says that it understands that some high-profile intended parents may want to maintain complete privacy about their new child, while others may wish to go fairly public with their happy news – but always on their own specific terms. Of course, nearly all intended parents and surrogates are going to want to maintain some degree of privacy; people who are not in any way well-known will often want to keep the process completely private, says the agency. The agency emphasizes that discretion and respect for the wishes of all parties are always at the center of its efforts.

Global Surrogacy Services adds that complete and total discretion is a part of its overall commitment to doing everything possible to ensure the wellbeing of intended parents, surrogates, and offspring. From selecting the very best available fertility specialists and ob-gyn doctors to the most respected family law specialists to navigate the complex thicket of laws and red tape necessary for gestational surrogacy, every aspect of the process is approached with the most painstaking attention to detail in ensuring a successful and happy outcome for all parties.

Intended parents and potential surrogates who would like to find out more are encouraged to call Global Surrogacy Services at (800) 355-2009 or visit its website at https://www.globalsurrogacyservices.com/.

Medphine CEO/Co-Founder Reetu Singh talks about her experience with eClinicalWorks EHR


Medphine, a eClinicalworks specialized Medical billing and coding service provider has been relentlessly helping healthcare organization across the USA streamline their finances for a clean, and continuous cash flow.

When asked Why do a practice need eClinicalworks specialised Billing Company, Reetu Singh, Co-Founder and CEO of Medphine.com said, “EHR is like the skeletal system of a practice. It serves as a framework for their workflow, and the patient care that they provide. And billing services work as the heartbeat or lifeline of the practice. Upbeat billing ensures a steady cash flow and hence the financial health of the practice stays intact.

“In order for a healthcare organization to thrive financially, the EHR and billing services have to be in tandem. We work seamlessly with eClinicalworks ensuring that EHR is utilized to its full potential, and the billing is streamlined and thriving.”

A recent survey states that 80 percent of hospitals said they were vetting or considering full revenue cycle management outsourcing by 2020. About 18 percent of the over 700 hospital leaders surveyed also reported already fully outsourcing their revenue cycle management functions.

“As hospitals look for ways to reduce costs, outsourcing is a valid strategy to achieve a financially healthier organization. Caution should be given with the common pitfalls in healthcare when vetting or considering outsourcing,” said Doug Brown, President of Black Book Research LLC.

One such important factor to consider before outsourcing is whether the company you are hiring is capable of working on your EHR.

EHR plays a huge role in overall billing cycle of a healthcare organization. It is of extreme importance that billers and coders are trained properly to work on it.

When asked about their experience with eClinicalWorks, Reetu Singh, co-founder and chief executive officer of Medphine said, “We love eClinicalworks. It is our favourite. The skill development with continuous learning and training has given our team an edge in assisting eClinicalWorks providers and practices with minimal to no downtime. This also helps in developing and promoting a seamless transition and onboarding process. Our team is well versed in CCM module, MACRA, MIPS reports, eBO value, and more. They have displayed quick and efficient implementation of the same with maximum accuracy. We aim at further enhancing these training and development sessions to help staff achieve their maximum potential and give the best output possible.”

Medphine’s team of certified billers and coders are periodically and rigorously trained on every latest eCW tool and update to bolster their ability to deliver accurate and efficient RCM services, Reetu said, when asked about how they ensure successful navigation and implementation of eClinicalWorks through their staff.

The question with many medical billers right now is “Does automation takes away my job?”

“Automation is beautiful. If this had been true, I would have not been able to work all 10 years that I need, while making the most use of automation. It helps the billers by eliminating unnecessary manual processes and allows them to focus on more complicated tasks, that needs thinking and intelligence like working on denials, helping patients, etc.”

About Reetu Singh:

Reetu started her journey in the healthcare industry as a medical biller using eClinicalworks and has efficiently learned all the intricacies of the medical billing process. She visions bringing disruption in the healthcare industry with transparency. With over a decade of experience in US Healthcare RCM and billing landscape, Reetu aims at dispensing top notch technological solutions with a strategic approach to help the industry fight various challenges it is facing right now such as Surprise medical bills, lack of mobility of records and high cost to patients. Reetu’s passion to continuously deliver better output has made Medphine stand proud in the list of top 10 RCM companies, earning the label of one of the most promising and trustworthy companies to work with.

About http://www.Medphine.com:

Lazarus Announces Launch of Clinical Decision Support Platform That Uses A.I. & Deep Learning to Improve Early Cancer Detection


News Image

The early detection of skin cancer can be crucial in a patient receiving the right treatment before it progresses further. With many patients first seeing a primary care doctor when physical signs of skin cancer show, resources that can help their correct identification of skin cancer be extremely valuable. Enter technology company focused on finding cancer Lazarus. Lazarus recently announced the launch of their new app and platform that combines powerful Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning, to deliver a tool which uses 300K images plus patient records to instantly identify skin cancer. The early response to the new Lazarus platform has been remarkably enthusiastic. The Lazarus launch is in partnership with EPIC System’s App Orchard program.

“We’re excited about what this means for medicine,” commented a spokesperson from Lazarus. “Never before has a primary care doctor been able to meet or exceed the performance of a specialist in the diagnostic step. With Lazarus CDS, they’re now able to do that.”

According to Lazarus, works immediately out of the box, without any complicated installs or steep learning curves. It is both secure and transparent, fully HIPAA compliant with SOC-1 and SOC-2 certification, and complete reporting and performance monitoring for enterprises clients.

The skincare identification resource is used with just a smartphone and dashboard. This gives both primary care doctors and dermatologists a way to quickly and accurately screen for skin cancer with just one photo.

This ability to get a quick and simple diagnosis not only expands what primary care doctors and dermatologists are able to accurately deliver, but also ends up saving time, peace of mind, and money for patients, who have one full step removed from the “old school” way skincare would normally be confirmed or dismissed for patients.

In clinical testing, Lazarus has a 93% accuracy rate, with, so far, 72 thousand patients tested, 2300 models built, and nearly 4 million patients records.

Lazarus CDS connects to ten different EHRs, that covers over 95% of all patient populations – more than double the coverage of the largest competing platform.

Early feedback for the app and platform has been very positive across the board.

Scott S., from Boston, recently said, “We have found Lazarus CDS incredibly valuable in our dermatology office. It has made us more useful to patients, while providing them a better service. A total win-win and fully recommended.”
