TEDCON 2016 TEDCON Day Activities Disaster Activities Disaster Day ATTN: Disaster Preparedness Office Preparedness Disaster ATTN: 61637 IL Peoria, Center Medical Francis Saint OSF 530 NE Glen Oak Ave Oak Glen 530 NE TEDCON 2016 The Region 2 Healthcare Coalition in collaboration with OSF Saint Francis Medical Center in Peoria, IL is pleased to announce the first annual TEDCON 2016 TEDCON combines Trauma, Emergency Medical Services, and Disaster Preparedness concepts into one two day conference. The purpose of the conference is to collaborate across the disciplines of Disaster Management, EMS, and Trauma to create one cohesive conference and learning environment. These three disciplines are integral to each other and must collaborate to achieve success. During times of need, such as a mass casualty incident or community stressor, these three specialties must seamlessly work together for optimal outcomes. Also, often times in day-to-day activities Disaster Management, EMS, and Trauma work independently, but on the periphery of each other’s areas of expertise, which can create silos in which each discipline operates. This conference serves to break down these silos and work towards an environment of fluid collaboration between all three. By learning together, we can learn from each other, and create lasting relationships. This will only serve to strengthen our response to situations when called upon to serve our community.

  • Consumerism and Value Creation in American Healthcare
    Consumerism and Value Creation in American Healthcare Why educated consumers – and only educated consumers - can reduce costs, improve outcomes and fix our broken healthcare system Gary Fradin 2015 1 2 All materials in this book are copyrighted © by Gary Fradin, 2015. All rights reserved. No part of this text may be reproduced without the express written consent of Gary Fradin 3 4 The Author Gary Fradin teaches healthcare economics to hundreds of health insurance brokers annually. He has written 6 books about healthcare: Moral Hazard in American Healthcare Healthcare Problems and Solutions Understanding Health Insurance Transparency Metrics Uninformed: The Plight of America’s Patients How to Talk to Your Doctor He also developed TheMedicalGuide, an online consumer education company, to teach patients how to make wiser medical care decisions. Many of the tools discussed in this text are available at www.TheMedicalGuide.net. Gary holds Master’s Degrees from University College London and Harvard. 5 6 Healthcare value defined Value is a relationship between dollars spent and outcomes. Spending less for better outcomes creates value. Spending more for poorer outcomes destroys value. We can measure individual test or treatment value by considering specific costs and outcomes. If one treatment costs $50,000 and another $8,000, but both generate the same patient outcomes, we call the $8,000 treatment ‘better value’. We can measure healthcare system value by considering total expenditures and population health metrics like longevity, disease morbidity and infant mortality. If Americans spend $10,000 per person annually on medical care and live an average of 79 years, while another country spends $4,000 per person but lives an average of 81 years, we say they have ‘better healthcare system value’.

  • 1 GVSU Community Reading Project Five Days at Memorial by Sheri Fink
    GVSU Community Reading Project Five Days at Memorial by Sheri Fink Guide by Maureen Wolverton, Liberal Studies Department Prologue 1) Reflect on your own memories of Hurricane Katrina. Share how you learned about certain events and any people you knew who were touched by the disaster. 2) Sheri Fink conducted over 500 interviews to construct this work of narrative journalism. What challenges must she have faced in order to craft this book? What dilemmas of her own do you think she wrestled with while researching and writing? 3) The prologue opens with the crux of the life or death issues doctors faced at Memorial Hospital. What questions does the prologue raise for you about Hurricane Katrina? Why do you think doctors like Dr. Pou were ultimately placed in the predicament to prematurely extinguish the lives of their patients? What would you have done given the circumstances? Note: We will engage this “Big Question” again after reading the book. 4) Hurricane Katrina raised many “big questions” for our country to engage. How did this storm require Americans to re-think issues of race, class and government? Note: We will engage this “Big Question” again after reading the book. Chapters 1-3 Readers learn the history of Memorial Hospital. Key doctors are introduced as Hurricane Katrina bears down and finally strikes New Orleans. 1) How does learning about the history of “Baptist” shape your view of what happened during Hurricane Katrina? 2) What factors ensured that Memorial Hospital did not have the capacity to properly drain water during extreme weather? 3) Who was given exemptions from the mandatory evacuation? Why? What other orders given were significant? What “old knowledge” and customs were presented in the book as Hurricane Katrina drew closer? 4) Were you surprised to discover that Baptist was one of the last Southern hospitals to submit to integration in 1968? Why or why not? 5) We know that Dr.

  • 85Th National Headliner Awards Newspaper and Online Winners
    85th National Headliner Awards Newspaper and Online winners The 85th National Headliner Award winners honoring the best journalism for radio and television stations in 2018 were announced today. The awards were founded in 1934 by the Press Club of Atlantic City. The annual contest is one of the oldest and largest in the country that recognizes journalistic merit in the communications industry. The Best in Show for newspapers was a story titled “Perversion of Justice” by Julie K. Brown and Emily Michot of the Miami Herald. The story won first place in the Investigative Reporting in a Top 20 Media Market category. The judges’ comments for the story are below: “Once again the judges are in awe of the work by Julie K. Brown of the Miami Herald, a past winner. Her persistence in tracking down the Jane Does years after their violations by a serial pedophile and giving them voice unleashed a wave of outrage both in Florida and nationally that was felt in the hearings rooms of Congress.” Brown previously won the Best in Show for newspapers National Headliner Award in 2015 for her story “Cruel and Usual.” The Best in Show for photography went to Wally Skalij of the Los Angeles Times for his Newspapers Feature Photo titled “Woolsey fire burns all the way down to the coast.” “Composition, subject matter and color come together to create an emotional visual moment,” the judges said. The Best in Show for online went to a story titled “NBC Left Field: The Path to Radicalization” by Ed Ou and David Scott Holloway of NBC News in the category Online Video More Than 10 Minutes Long.
