Telemedicine – A New Idea?

Healthcare Global Challenges
Globalisation Healthcare costs are affecting competitiveness of companies, regions and countries
Consumerism More knowledgeable, demanding citizens
Changing demographics and lifestyles Aging and overweight populations
Diseases that are more expensive to treat Increased prevalence of chronic conditions – especially diseases of affluence
New technologies and treatments Advances revolutionizing risk assessment, diagnosis, and treatment
Financial constraints Pool of funds for healthcare is not limitless
Societal expectations and norms Is healthcare a societal right or a market service?
Lack of aligned incentives Few incentives to encourage the behaviour of collaboration and service transformation
Inability to balance short and long-term perspectives Common focus on urgent short-term needs, rather than long-term sustainability
Inability to access and share information Clinical data is being generated at unprecedented rates, but information sharing remains elusive

IBM Point of View on eHealth
Innovative use of IT will enable new healthcare delivery models: Healthcare information becomes ‘digital’, and based on industry standards This enables ‘views’ of the patient across organisational boundaries Minimise patient travel – move patient information instead Extend the reach of healthcare services to the home, workplace, community Exploit the power of electronic media to educate, inform and support citizens
This will deliver: More convenient and safer care pathways for the patient Improved demand management for medical (and social) care Better informed and more ‘activated’ citizens Reduced costs for the healthcare system An affordable and sustainable service
Electronic networks are a pre-requisite

Smarter Healthcare
+ + =
Improve operational effectiveness
Deliver collaborative care for prevention and wellness
Achieve better quality and outcomes
A smarter health system forges partnerships in order to deliver better care, predict and prevent disease and
empower individuals to make smarter choices.

Scenarios drive the need for Healthcare IT systems to exploit data & interoperability standards to:
Connect – integrate sytems across the enterprise boundary Share – high value data among communities Accelerate Innovation – rapid deployment of new services Improve Efficiency – re-use existing assets and infrastructure Address Service Issues – transparently allow service trends to be captured and analysed for refinement and development purposes and to identify best practice.

Fact: Accessing quality medical care in remote locations is difficult and time-consuming (in this case no airstrip - 7 days travel by sea to Capetown)
What’s smart? • Using telemedicine to provide access
to clinicians in University of Pittsburgh Medical Center
• Provision of teleradiology, telepathology, doctor-to doctor, and doctor-to-patient consultations, all via satellite link
Smarter Business Outcomes • Immediate referrals and 2nd opinions • Improves quality of patient care • Eliminates need to travel (a very long
way!) for specialist consultations

Rationale for WSD
We want to know to what extent the WSD model of care:
promotes individuals long term well-being and independence
improves individuals and their carer’s quality of life
improves the working lives of staff
is more cost effective
is more clinically effective
provides an evidence base for future care and technology models.

Quotes from WSD Participants
“Living on my own it’s nice to know I can call for help if I feel ill during the night or fall.”
“The alarm system allows me a lot more freedom and peace of mind.”
“It means that I don’t have to go into a care home which I don’t want to do. I want to stay in my own home as long as possible.”
“I feel much more confident knowing that someone is keeping an eye on my health every day. I think it’s great.”
“Since I started using Telehealth I’ve been able to manage my condition better.”
“It changes the whole concept of my life. I can get on with my daily activities... and am totally independent.”
“Now if my condition changes I can speak to someone quickly and they have a record and can see what has changed - they know what to do to sort it out.”
