On the road again
Well after a few months hiatus I'm back in the saddle again working with a few companies in the Boston area. Just a few musings I'm seen lately. HIPAA enforcements are up and the companies need to be ever vigilant. NCQA with standards are definitely working closely with federal guidelines with both HHS and CMS. Standards are slowly being unified but we are a long ways off...

Telemedicine
Telemedicine has different meanings to different groups. For some it is a nurse line phone service. For others its a video chat service. No matter what your business is you always need to think about compliance and privacy. Do you have your privacy policies available. Do you review you calls for quality. Are your clinicians correctly licenses? Do you follow the states privacy's policies that you operate in? What about security? Do you have adequate protection for your members while streaming.

ICD-10 delay
Just some random thoughts on the delay. The delay simply came down to money and politics. In a nutshell you have the plans who were all set to go live vs. the practices who were still struggling to be able to do the conversion. ICD-10 while it provides greater clarity in diagnosis' its the new additional ,codes that don't match up that's causing angst. For small mom and pop shops this would mean loss of revenue. I think enough of them reached out to congress and got enough folks on their side.
Just my 2 cents

End of an Era- Health Dialog
While folks I apologize for not posting more often lately. For the last 5+ years I've been at Health Dialog Services Corporation(A Division of BUPA). Well this month they sold the company to Rite Aid and went in a new direction. A lot of us were impacted including myself. I wish them the best of luck. So now its off to new and exciting things. I'm in the process of setting up some consulting work and looking for a FTE position. Drop me a line. I'll be posting this week on the ICD-10 delay and thoughts about it.
