What is Housing Benefit and Council Tax Support?
Housing benefit and council tax support are means tested benefits, which help people on low incomes pay their rent and council tax. Certain people cannot claim.
Who can claim
You can claim if you are:
- working
- unemployed
- receiving benefits
- self-employed
- pensioner.
What is housing benefit?
You can claim housing benefit if you pay your rent to the council, a housing association or to a private landlord. Local Housing Allowance (LHA) is the name for Housing Benefit for most tenants of private landlords who claim after 7 April 2008
If you are charged council tax you can claim council tax support. If you pay your rent to the council, housing benefit is called a rent rebate. It is called rent allowance if you pay your rent to a housing association or a private landlord. How to claim
What is council tax support?
Council tax support must be claimed by the person who is resident and is liable to pay the council tax for the property. There are two types of council tax support.
The first type of council tax support, is known as main council tax support, and has rules similar to housing benefit.
The second type of council tax support is second adult rebate. You can claim this benefit if you are of pensionable age and are the only person liable to pay the council tax and you have one or more adults (not your partner or tenant) living with you and they have a low income. How to claim.
The maximum second adult rebate you can receive is 25 per cent of the council tax. We do not need to know about your income or savings. However we will need to see evidence of the income and savings of the other adults in the household.
When you claim council tax support we will work out both types and award you whichever gives you more financial help towards your council tax liability.
Whichever type of council tax support you are awarded we will use it to reduce your council tax bill.

When something went 'viral', meaning content was shared across a mass audience via word of mouth and social media, until recently, it was commonly the recorded work of a singer with debatable talent or a cute dog on a skateboard. Lately though, this act of mass sharing has had very profound results for some fundraising campaigns which, once the 'virus' took hold, saw an explosion in awareness and support.
From the exceptionally successful but controversial KONY 2012 campaign to the mass influx of donations made to an indiegogo.com page set up for bullied NY school bus monitor Karen Klein, a handful of recent stories have captured the public's imagination in such a profound way that they have been compelled to, not only become involved themselves, but share the story with their friends.
But what is it about a campaign message or story which elevates itself so far beyond a normal, 'expected' level of public interaction? Can nonprofits react to this new, technology enabled, social dynamic and position their own campaigns for this mass public engagement?
Sticky ideas
In their book 'Made to Stick', Chip and Dan Heath suggest six qualities of sticky ideas. These qualities make an idea or concept memorable and I believe they're found in the most successful viral fundraising campaigns.
Simple - the core message is compact and profound.
'Let's Give Karen -The bus monitor- H Klein A Vacation!' Indiegogo fundraising page title
Unexpected - get your audience's attention and hold it by using surprise and mystery.
'Nothing is more powerful than an idea whose time has come - whose time is now' KONY 2012 Title
Concrete - make your idea understandable and memorable by breaking it down into terms that can be imagined by the senses.
'Joseph Kony - He has an army, okay? And what he does is he takes children from their parents and he gives them a gun to shoot and he makes them shoot and kill other people.' KONY 2012 Narrator Jason Russell to his 5 year old son Gavin.
Credible - help your audience believe and agree with your idea by using appropriate testimonies, statistics, and examples.
'So, with hundreds of thousands of people with us, we went back to Washington, D.C., and we met with congressmen and senators one by one on both sides - Republicans, Democrats - and they all agreed with us.' KONY 2012 Narrator Jason Russell
Emotional - get your audience to care about your idea by using specific examples of someone in need or by appealing to the audience's self-interest or sense of identity.
'Oh my god, look at that - that's gross. Karen, are you sweating?' School Bus Bully
'I'm crying' Karen Klein
Stories - get people to take action by telling the right stories.
'She (Karen) doesn't earn nearly enough ($15,506) to deal with some of the trash she is surrounded by. Let's give her something she will never forget, a vacation of a lifetime!' Indiegogo 'Loveforkarenklein' appeal page
KONY 2012 projected these 'sticky' elements with the aid of a compelling story, articulated well and presented in a professionally crafted and emotionally charged documentary. With Karen Klein's bullying ordeal being captured as-it-happened on video and posted to YouTube, gripping the attention of the viewer and prompting a strong emotional response was achieved quite naturally.
Encouraging the Virus
While a strong campaign message with these 'sticky' elements is undoubtedly powerful, there are other factors which also increase the potential of a fundraising, or awareness raising effort going viral. These include having clear campaign calls-to-action so donors know what is expected of them, making donation requests smaller and therefore more widely accessible and utilising clear and efficient methods of donation capture, i.e., fee-free online donation platforms or designated mobile apps.
While attempting to try and engineer a campaign to go viral may well prove fruitless, by properly understanding the dynamics of how previous campaigns have found success, nonprofits can optimise their own efforts. By highlighting the most vital 'sticky' parts of their campaigns, ensuring that calls-to-action are concise and donations are able to be taken seamlessly, nonprofits give themselves the best chance of achieving that invaluable 'share'.

- Professional Area: Marketing/communications
What I disliked most about the Kony thing, was the fact that the information was wrong, about Kony and the people in the video. But everyone feel for it. I think videos like that are likely to have a high success of going viral in America, since most Americans don't really know much about the rest of the world. Sad but true, despite so many Americans being online, on their computers, you'd think they'd use that time online to learn about the rest of the world.
KONY 2012 campaign is one of the few thatbecame viral. However, not without controversies.
There is certainly a great deal to find out about this subject.
I love all the points you made.

From ARCC: "All abortions are medically required because health is defined broadly in our society. It encompasses not just physical health, but mental and emotional health as well. Besides, it is impossible in practice to split abortion into two categories of medically required or not, based on women's reasons for abortion. Anti-choice people want to limit funding to abortions performed to save the woman's life or in cases of rape/incest, but the doctors who actually perform abortions would attest that all abortions are medically necessary. All pregnancy outcomes must be funded equally. Anti-choice people often say that pregnancy is not a disease and that abortion is a "lifestyle choice"—therefore, it is not medically required. However, the same arguments can be made for childbirth. There are no medical reasons for a woman to get pregnant and have a baby. She does so because she chooses to, often for socio-economic reasons. Anti-choice people might protest that there are "two patients" in a pregnancy and that abortion harms at least one of them. But Canadian courts have ruled decisively that fetuses are not legal persons with rights. Also, if the government were to de-insure abortion without also de-insuring childbirth, it would in effect be making the "lifestyle choice" for women."

I agree. People tend to have this assumption that the show pretty much obsolete nowadays simply because it's not as popular as it used to be. If anything, I'd say the latest region has actually exceeded Kanto by a country mile. Not only is the storyline much more enhanced in comparison, but the characters are actually developed and the main focus isn't always on the mascot and the three starter Pokemon. In addition, the gym battles are, in fact, fairly intense, and aren't defeated through pity or unjust methods like in Kanto. The villainous teams are also now a genuine threat, and show up regularly as part of a consistent storyline (referring to Team Galactic, not Rocket. :P) I really do wish people would stop making unreasonable comments concerning the anime without even watching the newer series, because it most cases, they couldn't be more wrong.
I do agree with Kendo regarding the voices, however, hence why I only watch the Japanese variant of each episode.

Landmarks in U.S. Immigration Reform
Back to
Bordering the Future
- 1819. Congress enacts the first significant federal immigration laws, including registration requirements for new immigrants. Enforcement of federal immigration statutes is left up to individual states.
- 1864. Immigration control is centralized under a commissioner reporting directly to the Secretary of State, but states and their immigration commissions, boards, and other offices retain authority over immigration.
- 1882. Legislation barring Chinese immigrants and levying a head tax on each new arrival is passed.
- 1891. A new law establishing "complete and definite Federal control over immigration" requires all states to transfer their enforcement and other immigration activities to a new Bureau of Immigration within the Treasury Department.
- 1903. Immigration laws, consolidated under the Bureau of Immigration, are amended to exclude polygamists, political radicals, prostitutes, convicts, alcoholics, and "persons likely to become public charges."
- 1924. The U.S. Border Patrol is created, the first legal restrictions are placed on casual migration across the U.S.-Mexico border, and a national-origin quota system is established.
- 1933. Separate immigration and naturalization functions are consolidated in the Department of Labor, creating the Immigration and Naturalization Service (INS).
- 1940. In response to growing concerns about international tensions and war, the INS is transferred to the U.S. Department of Justice.
- 1942. Officially called the Emergency Farm Labor Program, but better known as the bracero program, a new law provides U.S. corporate agricultural employers with legally contracted Mexican workers.
- 1952. Multiple laws governing immigration and naturalization are brought under a comprehensive statute, limiting immigration from the Eastern Hemisphere while leaving Western Hemisphere totals unrestricted.
- 1965. The Immigration and Nationality Act amends existing laws, for the first time establishing an official quota for legal immigration from Western Hemisphere nations and requiring the U.S. Labor Secretary to certify that prospective immigrants pose no threat to U.S. jobs.
- 1976. Known unofficially as the Mexican Quota, an adjustment to the 1965 amendments limits the number of legal visas issued to Mexican immigrants each year to 20,000.
- 1986. The Immigration Reform and Control Act grants amnesty to foreigners who can prove they have resided in the U.S. continuously since 1982 and establishes sanctions for employers of undocumented workers. It also gives legal status to certain agricultural workers.
- 1990. Congress expands legal immigration quotas from 270,000 to 340,000 per year, and creates "independent" and "family preference" visas to handle the increased numbers of legal permanent residents resulting from the 1986 legalization provisions.
- 1993-1994. The report of the U.S. Commission on Immigration Reform and a variety of proposed bills raise the profile of the immigration debate, recommending reforms that include creating a national computer network to verify applicants' Social Security and INS status, eliminating appeals by criminally convicted aliens, boosting penalties for visa fraud, allowing interdiction at sea of migrant smugglers, and denying citizenship to children born to illegal immigrants in the U.S.
- 1996. The Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act and the Immigration Control and Financial Responsibility Act provide for more border enforcement, a 14-mile triple fence south of San Diego, and increased penalties for smuggling undocumented workers into the U.S., as well as for using false documents to obtain jobs or public benefits.
- 1997. Appointed by Congress and the President in 1990, the bipartisan Commission on Immigration Reform advisory group recommends abolishing the INS and parceling its duties to other federal agencies.

FIVE family members in a crowded ICU rm all night long! - page 3
Last night I took care of a very young adult patient who is basically donor material now because of a rather unfortunate combination of cocaine and a heart condition. The family was approached in ER about the big "D" word... Read More
- 3Jan 2, '09 by lsad78Although I may not have as much experience as many of the nurses on this site...I do have experience as a mother of a PICU pt and close friend of an ICU pt...As a nurse myself I agree having 5 family members in the room is extremely tough and potentially dangerous..I truly agree with the 2 family members at a time and if things are heading south open the flood gates...No family members should ever be restricted to 30 min time slots a few times a day...It strikes me that maybe the family members seeing you so busy and stressed with this pt may have helped them realize the gravity of the situation for the their loved one...You did a good thing, they were lucky to have you as their nurse!
- 1Jan 11, '09 by nrsang97In my unit we are trying to change visiting hours to our own unique policy since we are a neuro ICU and stimulation can cause so many problems. However it would be open except from 07-0830, and 19-2030, the hours would be 10a-10p. 2 family members at a time. NO overnight sleeping at the bedside. Exceptions will be made to the overnight at the bedside for dying, critical patients, and family acting to help keep the pt calm, or minor pt.
I do not believe that there needs to be 24 hour visitation in a ICU. Patients need their rest, not to feel like they should be entertaining family. However there are the family who has shaken our vented and nonresponsive pt as well. Family about to duke it out at bedside. Family isn't rational when they get no sleep. We had a pt mom recently write our manager a letter telling her how awful we were to her. Guess what she wrote a second letter telling our manager she wasn't in her right frame of mind due to anxiety and stress when she wrote the letter. She apologized for everything she had written. This family told the day nurses that when they hit the call light we were to respond "STAT". She went crazy on me at the desk that night over the charge nurse stating that it was nice that someone gave her a chair to relax in. Good lord I was her punching bag that day because of her lack of sleep.
In our GOL cases, the GOL cooridnators encourage family to come and say goodbye after the pt has been declared brain dead, and then the family usually goes home. I have never had a GOL pt that has had a visitor at all or even stay overnight. However not to say that I wouldn't allow it if that happened.
Your charge should have helped you and not told you not to look stressed in front of the family.
- 0Jul 28, '12 by FMF CorpsmanQuote from heartnurseinvai have to agree with you in every sense of the word. i don't sugar coat and i don't play the pc game. you tend to get that way when people are shooting at you when you are simply trying to do your job. my marines didn't have time for me to tell them lies about their condition, and i knew if they wanted a chance to get right with whoever they needed to get right with, they needed to know what was going on right then. it's a habit i have kept through out my career and my patients seemed to appreciate it as much as the marines did. in the units, we always would ask the families to nominate a single person to be the spokesman for the group, that would be the person we would update, and they in turn would keep the family abreast of what was going on. and there was always a 2 person limit period. no exceptions and no one could over rule it. if a crisis came up then they made short visits, 2 at a time. or, if we needed the room, visiting would be halted until we finished. this was a critical care unit in a hospital not a hotel. people have to understand and respect that, if they can't do that, it's too bad.i feel your pain planeflyer...i would definitely bring your concern up in your next staff meeting. that is absolutely ridiculous and should not have be allowed. it is one thing if your patient was stable. or, if the family had come to some agreement on code status or heroic measures...that was not the case, and as far as i am concerned, they prevented you from doing your job proficiently.
i am sorry...i am one of those nurses who do not sugar coat anything. i tell the family exactly how i see it. giving a family false hopes is never a good thing. i do think it is necessary for the family to see how unstable their loved one is and how much care i am delivering to the patient. however, not if it is preventing me from doing my job.
i work in a cvicu and we have limited visiting hours.. 4x/day, 30 mins in length. if the patient is unstable or if we are in a middle of a procedure--during the visiting time--they family does not come back and can not make the visiting time up.
i remember when i was a new nurse and felt that my charge nurse made all the decisions, including the care of my patient. i soon developed a backbone and questioned anyone who wanted to tell me how to do my job.
there would have been nothing wrong if you decided to ask your family to leave or to limit the numbers.
you have the final say...it is your license.

Tags: Canning, preserves, time lapse, tomatoes, video
I hope to learn how to can someday. This is just fascinating to me! I love love love the time lapse…what a great idea to document the day.
We needed a higher table for a work surface – my back is so sore I have had to book a massage for today. Oh poor me.
Poor Catherine!
Wow…looks great Laura! Canning always seems to be a learning experience until you've been doing it about 30 years!!
You guys did awesome and I love the video! Next year will be super easy with all you have learned this year. It is really quite amazing you processed so much in one day (with kiddos). *stands and claps* Yay for you!
I certainly don't have any tips for your, as I've never done this before myself, but I'm hoping to get a group together and do a big batch of tomato planning next season- so this is a lot of great insight to start our planning!
And congratulations on your first tomato canning. So many beautiful jars!
Love this, Laura! I'd be super ultra happy to join you in your canning next year. This is something I'd really like to know how to do!
[…] warm from the sun. I love their versatility as we eat them fresh in the summer, freeze, dry and can them for winter . No other plant offers the diversity of colours, sizes and shapes as the tomato. This year we are […]

We love all aspects of publishing: We love self publishing, and we love it when people strike out and land publishing deals. This week, our Five Questions post is devoted to the latter. Christopher Logan is an actor, fundraiser, and photographer wrangler. His book, dr.a.g. (dressed as girl), is a gorgeous photo book profiling some pretty big names in drag including Joey Arias, Lady Bunny, and the cast of RuPaul's Drag Race. It will be published worldwide in May by Tectum Publishers, but its first incarnation was as a Blurb book. We talked with Logan about the nature of the project and how to get a book published using Blurb.
Blurb: How did the idea for this book come about? And what was your role in it?
Logan: I was originally going to do short runs of a few different coffee table books on subjects like Pro Fighters, Women in Fitness, Drag Queens, etc. When I started explaining to a curious friend who asked, 'why drag?', I ended up answering so many questions on the subject in a respectful, forthright and honest way, that I realized I was the 'connection' to make that book happen, and it became bigger than expected and better than expected.
My role was the concept itself: a book on drag to raise money for a film on drag, and I contacted, and gathered all the photos, wrote and got all the releases signed, and compiled everything for the book. I then connected with graphic designer Mamio Marais, and we put the book together.
Blurb: How many publishers did you approach with the idea, and how many books did you end up ordering and sending out?
Logan: I originally approached quite a few publishers before producing the book, but no one would open the attachments, or see me without known representation, etc. When I was researching who would be the target publisher for the book, I happened upon a note saying the Tectum Publishers was seeking 'more controversial' subject matter.
I sent an email introduction of myself and what I was doing with a few sample photos, saying 'would you be interested in seeing the final book in a few months time?' To which they replied, 'yes, please keep us in the loop.' And we did.
I figured we were a good fit. Between Tectum Publishers and an agent in New York, I only produced two books.
Blurb: What tool did you use to make the book?
Logan: Graphic designer Mamio and I used Adobe InDesign to produce the book. Originally, it was a smaller size (11×17 inches)… one that would have been feasible for me to print and sell online, but Philippe De Baeck at Tectum suggested if mass produced, a larger book with a higher page count would be the way to go. So we revised. He said, "the more I look at it, the more I like it".
Philippe was great at guiding me through the process to make our prototype book into the larger full-scale model it is today. There was a lot of back and forth during the editing process, but we ended up with a book that is miles above our original, but still true to it's feel.
Blurb: Do you think having the book in full, professional-quality presentation helped?
Logan: Very much. When trying to sell a publisher on an 'impulse buy' item, that first look appeal is extremely important and it shines more brightly with great production and quality on your side.
Blurb: What advice would you give others who are looking to shop their books around to publishers?
Logan: Know it's a work-in-progress until it hits the store… and know that they know that too! The ability to constantly revise your work and go with the flow when working with someone who knows the marketplace and its needs, is invaluable.
You can pre-order dr.a.g. for its release on May 15. Follow the release of the book and see more images on dr.a.g.'s Facebook page.

What will the European banking union mean for banks?
Mazars' Jonathan McMahon was recently interviewed by CNBC on the impact of the European Banking Union.
The European Commission's announcement of 12 September 2012 is designed – as part of a package of wider measures - to create the conditions in which the Eurozone's creditor member states can provide financial assistance to banks in weaker member states. Whether it achieves this objective will be a function of politics, not EC legislation. In our view, the important issue for banks is how the proposals will affect how they are regulated. As this is not immediately obvious, nor necessarily contained in the EC's announcement, we have explained further in our summary of what these latest regulatory changes could mean in practice for banks.

At The Harn Museum: Photography From The Interwar Period: The Modern Impulse Explores The Radical Social And Artistic Developments In Europe And America Between World War I And World War II
The Modern Impulse showcases more than 135 photographs, books, illustrated magazines, and films drawn from four regions that were among the era's most prominent centers of photographic innovation—France and the Czech Republic in Europe, and New York and California in the United States. Artists featured in The Modern Impulse include such innovative talents as Berenice Abbott, Henri Cartier-Bresson, Imogen Cunningham, František Drtikol, Walker Evans, André Kertész, Helen Levitt, Josef Sudek, and Jaroslav Rössler.
"Photographers from both sides of the Atlantic caught the fleeting moments of everyday life, focusing on cities, street life, and the contours of industrial and natural forms. Their work ranged from abstraction to realism and was influenced by artistic movements such as Surrealism, Constructivism, and New Objectivity along with creative approaches to documentary and reportage," said exhibition curator Kerry Oliver-Smith, curator of contemporary art at the Harn Museum of Art. "Broadly, the work reflects what artist and theorist László Moholy-Nagy (1895–1946) described as a 'new vision,' a perspective that emerged from the technical culture of the 20th century, incorporating a multitude of unconventional forms and techniques such as unusual cropping and camera angles, high contrast and photomontage in both experimental and straight photography."
"The Modern Impulse offers a window into one of the most artistically fertile periods in the history of photography," said Rebecca Nagy, director of the Harn Museum of Art. "We're delighted to share a remarkable exhibition that meaningfully contributes to a greater understanding of 20th century visual culture."
The works displayed in the exhibition are organized by the following five thematic areas, which reflect the diversity of production and expression under the "new vision" movement: Art and Technology: New Vision and the Modern City; Pure Photography and New Objectivity; Dreams, Memory, and Desire: Surrealism in France and the Czech Republic; Social Activism and Modern Life: Documentary and Reportage; and Mass Media: Photography for the Public.
A lecture series will be offered in conjunction with the exhibition. Ontology of the Image will feature lectures by John Mullarkey, Professor of Film and Television at Kingston University in the United Kingdon, and Ariella Azoulay, Leverhulme Research Professor at Durham University and Director of the Photo-Lexic International Research Group at the Minerva Center, Tel Aviv University.

While black and white digital photography is based on the conversion of a color (RGB) image to monochrome via software, those who remain adherents of film photography have an entirely different route to obtaining a black and white image. With panchromatic film, the image is formed by the action of light upon light-sensitive silver halides in the film emulsion, the light-sensitive coating on film base. www.cheapkidsshoes.net

Like a lot of people, I was floored by the discovery of this new country called Amercia. Well, maybe not so much the "discovery" as the fact that such an obvious typo made it all the way to the app stage with no one noticing. But maybe I shouldn't be. After all, typos have become a staple of print and online content in recent years.
CNN just posted a great guest blog by journalism professor Merrill Perlman about the death of the copy editor and the toll it's taken on all our written content, online and off. "Amercia" is just the latest example, but it won't be the last… unless people like you start paying more attention to what you post online.
Your typos probably won't go as viral as "Amercia" did, but if you write blogs, web pages, or social media posts that are riddled with errors, enough people will see them to remember you as either careless or not smart. Keep this from happening by correcting your errors before posting. It'll take a little longer to write, but it's better to lose a little time than lose a lot of face.
First, know how to spell. I read lots of website content, and at least half of the mistakes I see come from confusing one word with another that sounds alike but means something different. These are the most common: ·
Next, run a spell check. Granted, they plod through every proper name in your writing, but they still catch a lot of mistakes before you get to the next stage.
That next step is to give it a read-through, but take a break first. After hours of staring at a computer screen, even the most careful writer can miss obvious errors that spell-checks don't catch. Step away for a while, then come back and correct all those spelling and punctuation errors you might have missed earlier.
Finally, if possible, get a second set of eyes to double-check your work. Copy editors were great because they caught things that exhausted, bleary-eyed writers might have missed. You might not have the money to hire an editor, but you can still ask a friend or colleague to help you out and catch the errors you overlooked.
Typos and spelling errors may be more frequent than before, but that's no excuse for you to make them. Take a little time to check your writing and be sure that you aren't writing the next Great "Amercian" Mistake.

Afternoon Recap: Healthcare 2.0 Social Media Camp (Part 2 of 2)
Last week, I enjoyed curating the Healthcare 2.0 Social Media Camp (part 1 of 2) organized by the BC Patient Safety & Quality Council (BCPSQC) and since then, they've compiled a few more posts including the panel and keynotes along with six reasons why a doctor should consider social media. Below are some of the sessions' recaps extracted with the use of the speakers' slides:
Social Media & Twitter 101
It was nice to see some familiar speakers and to be able to support them by being in attendance: Janet Madsen from the Positive Women's Network and Kemp Edmonds from Hootsuite, who's also the current Social Media Club Vancouver president, both covered the basics of social media.
- Janet started by asking us if our audience understood our message and to figure out who they were, then to engage with them. The use of hashtags were useful to connect with topics or other chat communities on Twitter. Words matter. She emphasized how important it was to choose the right words and that reading a message out loud could help avoid making mistakes. The language should be concise, precise and engaging. Giving credits to others and thanking others in the social media community shouldn't be underestimated.
- Kemp started off his presentation by saying that if you're going to be on social media, you should be helpful and create value. The first few tips were related to common sense and included being responsible, being transparent, taking ownership, respect, brand protection, and to not forget your day job [unless your job is social media]. He continued by warning beginners that you must understand the language for each platform. For example, a tweet will come across well on Twitter but most likely not on Facebook and/or LinkedIn. Relating the talk to healthcare, he went on to remind us that as our society starts to spend more time online, we also grow our influence to our family and peers; online reviews are becoming very influential. For health professionals, social media can help connect stakeholders, new apps can be preventative, and can even help manage our own health.
Video: How To + Success Stories
Videos for healthcare professionals can be extremely effective and this session helped us understand the basics, in's and out's on how to leverage this medium, and how to get started. The two speakers included Abisaac Saraga from Canadian Patient Safety Institute and Andrew Nguyen from Lemongrass Media.
- Abisaac showed us several creative videos made by several health organizations. The first one was on prevention and showed an entire hospital staff washing their hands in different locations. It was playful, entertaining and with the music, the message came across well. Another one was a humourous rap song delivering another health message with several people playing different acting roles. Another way to engage with videos were to create video contests where your audience would be the one submitting entries and the public would be the ones voting on YouTube. Your communities will feel engaged and even get creative in their participation.
- Andrew started off by having us consider three main questions: 1) What is my story? People remember stories, not facts. Consider the hero, the challenge and the triumph in a story. 2) Who is my audience? There are a primary and secondary audiences. You must find a way to make your story stick. 3) Who can best tell your story? They could be experts, advocates or actors. If you decide to hire a production company, it's important to ensure that they understand what you're trying to convey, so the story comes across clearly on screen and is received correctly by your own audience.
Understanding Web Analytics
For the analytics session, the two speakers were Ben Johnson from Frontier Consulting and Michaela Montaner from the International Centre for Science in Drug Policy.
- Ben introduced social measurements by saying that your organization must choose its primary goals or purposes. Different digital strategies will lead to different behaviours. One way to track certain behaviours is to look at heatmaps and by running tests and experiments, heatmaps will show you where your users are clicking the most. If you want to test your creativity with search, you can experiment with Google ads by testing new ideas or concepts and by segmenting locations, interests, etc...He went on to go over Google Analytics where you can view advanced segments, visitor flow and multi-channels funnels.
- Michaela discussed knowledge translation, how one of their stories that they ran got picked up by a Mexican media and how that translated into more hits. Two questions that she brought before even diving into the world of analytics were: 1) What's your goal? 2) Is social media a fit for you and your community? Once you figure those out, then you can talk about what you'd like to measure.
This was a full day of learning and you can also view the session highlights put together by BCPSQC or view most of the presentation decks from that day. In the world of healthcare, there is definitely a strong potential with the development and growth of social media and technology. In conclusion, this was a definitely a great way to connect with others in the healthcare industry and share your thoughts and ideas to further the progress of this industry as a whole.Kevin Liang

Patients experiencing heart failure may not have as many out-of-pocket costs for cardiac-specific hospital care beginning as soon as October if plans by one East Valley hospital to simplify its payment structure go into effect.
Banner Heart Hospital in Mesa, in conjunction with a new Medicare program, is experimenting with a "bundled care" project that attempts do just that — bundle the cost of care across various aspects of treatment into a more reasonable, manageable and potentially affordable outcome for patients.
The East Valley hospital hopes to have a contract approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) solely for Medicare heart failure payments by the fall.
The CMS devised the plan under the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement initiative that will allow flexibility of payment with an "episode of care" that spans diagnosis to admission to rehabilitation, said Eugene Schneller of Arizona State University's W.P. Carey School of Business.
As Schneller, a supply chain management professor with a background in health policy, explains it, doctors and hospitals will collaborate at all points of care — say, for example, from the point a patient is admitted with heart failure, through surgery, and on to physical therapy and other rehabilitative efforts. The purpose, he said, is to enhance efficiency and reduce costs, a term called co-management.
"We haven't received anything back from Medicare yet. And there is always uncertainty depending on what rules they lay down," said Dr. Mark Starling, chief medical officer at the Banner Heart Hospital of whether or not the hospital would agree with what is approved by CMS.
When it is approved, the Banner Heart Hospital's bundled care Medicare contract will begin the Bundled Payment Innovations Care Project specifically with heart failure patients, Starling said. The payments will eventually be prospective, meaning the payment is received before admission and covers all care and services up to 90 days after a patient's discharge.
The project's payment method will still be "fee-for-service" for now. The hospital will be paid in a lump sum (much like a bundled payment), but unlike traditional fee-for-service care, payments will occur before admission. In this case, efficiencies in the process will allow the care to cost two to three percent less than traditional fee-for-service payments, Starling said.
If the project is successful, then in a few years the Mesa heart hospital, located at 6750 E. Baywood, Ave., adjacent to Banner Baywood Medical Center, will analyze what worked and what didn't, he said.
Developing the project came at very little cost; Starling mentioned the hospital started a program in mid-2011 that reduced the amount of readmissions of heart failure patients from 25 percent to 14 percent. The hospital has worked on improving other forms of care as well.
Some goals of the bundled payment program, with Medicare and Medicaid, are "improved outcomes because the care would be better integrated and hopefully to be able to reduce costs," said Schneller, who is also co-director of the Health Sector Supply Chain Research Consortium at ASU's business school.
"What bundled payments do is they bring together a variety of parties in healthcare that have formally been fairly independent with each other" but that are connected by a common denominator — the patient, he said.
The chief medical officer said the Banner Heart Hospital reached out and formed collaborations with physicians, nursing facilities and homecare agencies.
"The bundled concept gives us an opportunity to really think how we build partnerships and relationships and manage patients better and more effectively," Starling said.
Eventually, the standard for heart failure will outline other disease-specific payments, also known as a diagnosis-related group that specifies all services, devices and treatment of a disease that would be billed to an insurer, he said.
"It's going to be an interesting challenge to find if — what we think works — will actually work in reality," he said.
Why kick off the program with heart failure? — Because Starling explained it is Medicare's largest expense, and it has a high rate of readmission.
Schneller noted that in theory the CMS's initiative — in addition to the Obama administration's Affordable Care Act — should improve the quality of patients' care because hospitals will be required to submit outcome reports.
"However, the idea here is that there is a lot of waste and inefficiencies in medical care," said Marjorie Baldwin, professor of economics at the W.P. Carey School of Business.
A bundled payment program could also lead to more efficient hospitals being rewarded, while hospitals with negative outcomes would be held more accountable, Schneller said.
So, if providers are willing to work together for more efficient care practices, then they can make a profit by way of their contracts with healthcare insurers, said Baldwin, who was the director of the School of Health Management and Policy, a department at the W.P. Carey School disestablished in 2010. If they step over the fixed payment, well then they are running a loss.
On the consumer end, Baldwin believes the bundled payment program won't actually lower the price for care; rather, care will be better at a similar cost.
"I think the costs are not being driven by inefficiencies," she said. "They're being driven by advances in technology that is more and more expensive."
Advances in medical imagery like MRIs that improve livelihood are more expensive to conduct rather than an X-Ray, she said, and this is what ramps up healthcare costs.
"We're at the beginning of looking at these kinds of payment innovations and time will tell just how well they work," Schneller said.
