Public Policy Overview
• The average American spends $440,000 on health care in his lifetime, and $280,000 will be spent after age 65.
• 50% of that post-65 outlay goes to assisted-living facilities and nursing homes.
• Keep elderly patients in their own homes longer, without degrading quality of care a cheaper and better system.

Public Policy Overview
• Using everyday, low-cost technology - the sensors, microchips, small radios you'd find in today's PCs, in cell phones, and in Bluetooth earpieces.
• Endorsement and reimbursement by Medicare critical
• The savings achieved by keeping just 10% of the aging population in their homes can amount to $30 billion a year.

Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality: Telehealth
• Telehealth can improve patient safety and quality of care.
• Implementing telehealth is not easy.
• Guidelines for reimbursement of telehealth are necessary for sustainability.
• AHRQ-funded grantees say technical support must be available around the clock to ensure patient safety.
![Page 24: Hit And Positive Aging](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/549997ccb47959dd778b4679/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality: Telehealth
• Telehealth systems should be integrated with electronic health record (EHR) systems to promote continuity of care across clinical settings.
• Telehealth systems can support the provision of team-based care.
• The AHRQ-funded laboratory of telehealth projects is producing valuable, informative lessons for the Nation.
![Page 25: Hit And Positive Aging](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/549997ccb47959dd778b4679/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
New Ways of Transforming Home Care
• Three Imperatives– Provide patients with feedback systems – Create models where population-based care
is practiced and rewarded financially. – Move care out of institution-owned physical
spaces.
![Page 26: Hit And Positive Aging](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/549997ccb47959dd778b4679/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
New Ways of Transforming Home Care
• The re-conceptualization of home care telehealth can be done through the use of technology to improve:– Clinical decision-making– Patient self-monitoring– Both can be done through the collection of
data through remote monitoring
![Page 27: Hit And Positive Aging](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/549997ccb47959dd778b4679/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
New Ways of Transforming Home Care
• Benefits of Remote Monitoring– Permits continuous rather than episodic
measurement– Measures symptoms in the environment in
which they occur– Permits individualization of the disease
process since what is normal is individual (e.g. blood pressure)
![Page 28: Hit And Positive Aging](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022061214/549997ccb47959dd778b4679/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
New Ways of Transforming Home Care
