Today at HIMSS14, ConvergeHEALTH by Deloitte announces the availability of Health System Intellect, an industry leading analytics solution that provides integrated views of clinical, operational and financial analytics to optimize reporting and performance at the process and key performance indicator level.
Health System Intellect will help health systems:
ConvergeHEALTH's Health System Intellect suite, combined with Deloitte's practices in clinical information systems, revenue cycle, clinical effectiveness, decision support and performance improvement, will allow health systems to lower cost of services, increase patient satisfaction, align revenue with value, reduce unnecessary utilization and process variation, enable continuous improvement programs, and improve knowledge sharing across functions.
"Health systems are facing tremendous challenges to reduce costs, improve quality and work within new reimbursement models," said Asif Dhar, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP, chief medical informatics officer and executive vice president of solutions for ConvergeHEALTH. "Our analytics will enable organizations to have a more complete view of performance so that decisions about cost are not made at the expense of quality, nor do they sub-optimize performance in other areas of the health system.
"The analytics will help clients get to the root cause of performance issues, pinpointing manageable clinical, operational and financial process variance so that organizations can improve quality while decreasing cost and maximizing revenue," Dhar continued. "Combined with Deloitte's proven approaches to managing cost, quality and revenue, our analytics solutions focus teams on measures, actions and real team-oriented solutions."
"Deloitte's consulting practices have been guiding health care organizations to improve their clinical and operational performance for many years, and now clients can benefit by having an enterprise analytics environment to drive continuous improvement through the Intellect integrated platform for organizational transformation," said Doug Beaudoin, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP and a leader of Deloitte's life sciences and health care practice. "We are proud to continue to help health systems use data to transform their clinical and operational enterprises for the ultimate benefit of patients."
ConvergeHEALTH is showcasing its solutions in Orlando, Fla., Feb. 23-26 at the HIMSS14 conference in Booth 1611.


text: Christie Yells at Ex-White House Doctor over Phone Print article Send a Tip by Tony Lee 10 Feb 2013 post a comment New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie called the former White House physician who criticized his obesity last week to yell at her over the phone. Christie called Connie Mariano, who now practices medicine in Arizona after she served as the White House physician for Presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush, after the New Jersey governor told her to "shut up" at a press conference last Wednesday. "It was essentially the tone of the press conference, only louder," Mariano told 3TV in Arizona. "It was hard to get anything across. He wasn't very nice to me." Mariano had revealed last week she was thinking of supporting Christie for the 2016 Republican nomination for president should Christie run, but Christie's angry call has changed her mind. "The way he acted lately I don't think so," the doctor who has observed three presidents in the White House said. "Politically, if this is the way (he handles) stress... is this presidential? I'll have to think about that. Is this a presidential way to behave? C'mon." After Christie went on "The Late Show" with David Letterman and made fun of his weight by stuffing a doughnut into his mouth last week, Mariano said, in an interview with CNN, she was worried Christie would die in office if elected president and the weight issue would "haunt him" during a potential presidential campaign. '"I'm worried about this man dying in office," she said. "I can understand why his doctors and other people have had trouble getting him to lose weight. This is an issue that will haunt him if he decides to run for office." Mariano also said she has received a lot of "hate mail" from Christie's fans, but her assessment seems to not have differed from Christie's doctor's. Christie conceded last week his doctor continues to warm him that the New Jersey governor's luck is "going to run out relatively soon" if he does not make some changes to his lifestyle.

A little about me...
God and family are most important. Love to travel to new places. I believe in treating people with love and respect. I am loving and caring to my family and friends. I don't like cold weather. I am a flip flops kind of girl who loves long walks on the beach. Like to laugh and have fun but can also be serious. Like to watch football and baseball. I enjoy going to movies and theater in New York. I also like bowling and bowl on a women's league. Walk for exercise. Love animals and have a cat named Max. Eventually want to get a dog.
About the one I'm looking for...
I am looking for someone that believes in God and has strong Christian values. Must be honest and sincere. Likes to have fun and has a sense of humor. Likes to watch sports (football and baseball). Close relationship with family and friends. Must love animals! Looking for someone who can be romantic and share my life.
I'd just like to add...
I have been divorced since 2000. I lost my second husband to cancer in 2011. I would like to be with someone to share fun and laughter. I am hoping that there is someone else that I could share my life with - who shares some of my same interests and likes to be happy. Communication is most important in a relationship. Talking and listening to each other as well as being honest. Just being comfortable with each other. I am not looking for a long distance relationship or someone who smokes. I will not respond without a photo.

WA 2012 Nurse of the Year Kristy Cooper
As a descendant of the last full-blooded Tasmanian Aboriginal Fanny Cochrane-Smith, it is no surprise that Kristy Cooper felt compelled to become a rural area nurse to help Aboriginal people.
But what did come as a surprise, at least to Kristy, was the recent announcement naming Kristy as Western Australia's 2012 Nurse of the Year.
Kristy received the top honour at the recent WA Nursing and Midwifery Excellence Awards after also winning the Rural and Remote Registered Nurse category.
One of 16 nurses and midwives throughout the state to win the diverse range of award categories, Kristy was awarded the overall title for her commitment to providing acute care, educating emerging rural and remote nurses, and for her work developing primary health
At 27, Kristy has spent the past three years working at a single nurse post in Coral Bay, a small town on the coast of WA, 1200km north of Perth, which is home to between 150 to 200 locals plus the seasonal tourists who come to experience Australia's only fringing reef and its outstanding marine life.
"Because I grew up rurally and with the Indigenous heritage, I am really quite interested in social and economic inequality," she said.
"I find it hard to believe that people do have such a different life path. I find it hard to accept it's already pre-determined because of social, economic and geographic location.
"I find it really hard to deal with and I am eager to overcome it."
As a frontline health professional, Kristy is passionate about remote practice and hopes to improve service delivery to people in remote areas, who Kristy said are "the sickest people in Australia statistically".
Kristy, who job shares with another nurse and works one week on and one week off, is completing her Masters in Remote Health Practice (Nurse Practitioner) through Flinders University and the Centre for Remote Health in Alice Springs.
With the nearest hospital 120km away at Exmouth, Kristy thrives on the generalist aspect of her nursing role.
"You see so much and you never know what's coming in," she said.
"With that comes a lot of autonomy and advanced practice."
Kristy hopes she will be endorsed as a nurse practitioner and wants to continue nursing in Coral Bay.
"If they re-classify my position I will be able to rid some of the gaps that exist in health care delivery in Coral Bay," she said.
"I will be able to do a lot more, sooner for the patient rather than the patient having to wait for the doctor to arrive."
Kristy has completed additional study in a bid to improve her service to patients and she is also working on a thesis researching the experiences and expectations of orientation in rural area nursing, in a bid to enhance the experience for nurses.
She is also assisting Flinders University with orientation programs in rural area nursing and lending a hand with some of its post-graduate rural area nursing courses.
"It's really nice to be recognised as a rural and remote health professional," Kristy said of her award.
"I love this place - they are my friends and family now, not just my clients.
"It's really a kind of special place."

The strategy for Flex 3
Summary: According to Ted Patrick, Flex 3, the next version of Adobe's Flex Framework, will be released on top of Flash Player 9 instead of requiring a brand new Flash Player. By leveraging the current player Adobe can take advantage of its penetration and not have to play the waiting game that is associated with most Flash releases. It's a solid strategy for using the player's ubiquity to full advantage.
It is a bold move and one that I think pays off for Adobe down the road. The key with Flash has always been penetration and as quickly as people upgrade, releasing a new player requires a lot of waiting on the part of early adopters. The latest stats on Adobe's page indicate that Flash Player 9 has only 35.9% penetration but at the FlashForward Macworld Keynote we found out that the penetration is closer to 60%. This is nowhere near the 90%+ that Flash Player 8 has and leaves people adopting Flex 2 how much of an impact that penetration number will have on their business. But with Flex, Ted says he believes that Adobe should always target the player that has 90% penetration:
As our market is by majority business applications, we need to focus on wide deployment and compatibility first and on new player dependent runtime features second. Flex should always deploy into the fat of the Flash Player adoption curve and it is my opinion that we should always target the player that is 90% deployed. If that means that Flex 3,4,5 ship targeting Flash Player 9 all the better for developers and companies. Honestly there are a ton of features that need to be added into Flex independent of the runtime and above the compiler. When Flash Player 10 hits 90%, Flex should target Flash Player 10 in all future releases.
I tend to agree with Ted that this is only going to help Flex adoption. Even with Flash Player 9's current 60% penetration, a lot of companies and web applications are leveraging Flex 2. It's becoming an accepted way to build web applications and using the eventual ubiquity of Flash Player 9 to deliver more features can only help Flex adoption. The recent release of Flash Player 9 for Linux only helps the story.

Though by the time this photo was made this residence had decidedly tipped from genteel into shabby, the house illustrates the Mediterranean concept of a city residence very well: built out to the front property line, usually the sidewalk, and most of the rooms giving onto the internal patio/courtyard or galleries facing same. Fresh air (or what passes for it in Summertime New Orleans) and absinthe -- gracious living in the pre-Freon era.

During Game One of the Spurs-Thunder series, San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich told his team he "wants some nasty." Judging by the results of San Antonio's play against Oklahoma City, there's been plenty of nasty on the court. Spurs fans made sure to bring the nasty off the court yesterday, which you can see here, here and here. And, of course, T-shirts are now being sold.
Rumor MillI have no idea which of these items is true or false, but there's plenty of "couple" rumors involving athletes out there. I'll present them without comment, and you can scratch your own heads. No. 1: Snowboarder Shaun White and model Bar Refaeli. No. 2: Rihanna and Knicks guard J.R. Smith. No. 3: Rob Gronkowski and Kim Kardashian. No. 4: Tim Tebow and someone.

Hales Corners Lutheran Church, one of the most prominent Lutheran churches in the Milwaukee area, is proud to announce the upcoming installation of its new Senior Pastor on Saturday, January 21st at 5:30 pm.
Pastor Keith Speaks, former Senior Pastor at Fountain of Life Lutheran Church in Kernersville, North Carolina, will begin pastoral duties at HCLC in January, 2012. Pastor Keith was called to HCLC to replace retiring Senior Pastor Mike Ernst who has successfully led this thriving congregation and has joyfully served southeastern Wisconsin for the past 19 years. Pastor Mike fervently supported the mission of reaching people for Jesus Christ and sharing God's joy with others. During his tenure, as the faith life of many church members deepened, a great number of people also came to know Christ through HCLC. Now the largest church in the history of the Missouri Synod, a noteworthy percentage of growth has been to un-churched and to people who have given up on church in the past.
Additional church activities include local and global missionary outreach such as: providing regular meals and food staples to hundreds of Milwaukee area families in need; the Ebenezer Food Pantry; Soup For the Soul program; connecting with other agencies to aid Milwaukee's "center city"; and sending short term mission teams to Guatemala, the Czech Republic, Haiti, San Diego, etc.
As a cradle to grave ministry, HCLC will continue the church's pledge to serve people of all ages in the Milwaukee area and beyond through its church facilities, schools, community center, senior living center, and other missionary callings. As he begins his service at HCLC, Pastor Keith is excited to grow this blessed ministry and "…to get together with others who are sold out for Christ to help make a big difference in people's lives."
Hales Corners Lutheran Church is looking forward to continuing its positive work in southeast Wisconsin during this transition and well into the future.
For more information, please contact Randy Masbruch, Executive Director of Hales Corners Lutheran Church, at 414-529-6700, x109.

Cheryl Brown Henderson's connection to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Brown vs. Board of Education is wholly symbolic. She was a young child at the time of the momentous decision, one of plaintiff Oliver Brown's three children.
The elder Brown's connection was largely symbolic, also. A welder and a minister in Topeka, Kan., Brown was approached by the NAACP to be one of 13 point people in a legal effort to attack the separate but equal doctrine that allowed the segregation of schools there. Brown, who had a union job secure from retribution, was the only man among the plaintiffs, and thus NAACP strategists decided to use his name for the case. In the 1940s and '50s, men used to be really important, Henderson said, drawing a laugh from her audience at the Grand Wayne Center on Tuesday night.
With the 60th anniversary of the landmark decision just a month away, an overflow crowd heard Henderson's analysis of the Brown decision and where it led us on the issue of race. Her talk was Indiana Tech Law School's inaugural Distinguished Lecturer Series address.
School was the battlefront, but society was the target, Henderson said. When that decision was handed down on May 17, 1954, at 12:52 p.m., African-Americans had just one moment of hope when they believed their struggle to fully join society by getting a full education might be ending.
What they didn't count on, she said, was how strongly white America would push back against the order to desegregate at all deliberate speed. Communities found many ways to resist, she said.
Does anyone know what deliberate' means? she asked her audience. It means slow.
In Prince Edward County, Va., officials closed public schools for five years, Henderson said. For the majority of folks, there was just no school to go to.
Even today, with a black president in the White House, Henderson argues that racism still infects our politics, our businesses and our approach to public schools.
Though she believes private schooling may be one way to provide quality education to African-Americans, Henderson believes that with America's wealth, There should be no such thing as a failing public school.
But though it wasn't a cure-all, Henderson emphasized that the Brown decision not only ended federal support for legal segregation but defined the equal-protection clause of the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment.
Brown did that for all of you in this room, not just African-Americans, she said.
The resegregation of schools by economic and geographic divisions, private schools that cater largely to a single race and recent revelations that even black children in preschools are singled out for harsher discipline, are among problems that Henderson's father and the others involved in the 1954 decision never anticipated.
Nonetheless, Brown vs. Board of Education was a huge step forward, one that should be celebrated this year even as we use the anniversary to face the racial disparities that still exist. As Henderson put it, We don't want to go back. When we hear people talking about the good old days, unh-unh – good for who?
