One of my docs thinks we should do the micro school thing for folks working for us w/kids needing to do school remotely.

not sure how we'd do it though

A View From My Window on Facebook is wonderful!

In April and May all of our pts wanted a video visit....now they all want to come in even when we offer to do it via video!

SUPER CONCERNED about our commercial population shrinking while Medicaid skyrockets....how can we keep our doors open if this happens for a prolonged period of time?

Do you believe there may be opportunities for clinics to partner with insurance companies as they have recored profits? To pilot new solutions... technology, care models, efficiencies, quality initiatives

more payers need to follow Pacificsource - they had a grant fund for projects clinics could apply for and have for a few years but it was quickly exhausted for 2020 and they haven't added more funds. All ins companies should do this but we're not sure how to get them to do it!

Partnering is common with CA insurance companies

getting BP cuffs to homebound patients. a specific population of patients are becoming extremely sick.

James and other medical personal devices, too

staff is tasked with calling and sourcing some grant funds. (hi jill!)

Is the Washington health authority stuff as good as the Oregon one? the Oregon reports daily and weekly are terrific...

does Washington have daily and/or weekly emails you can sign up for? sorry I haven't considered this before but perhaps I should since they seem to be similar yet ahead of our curves

It brings the Tsunami images to mind :( Where is the high ground?

not sure if salient, but several family and mental health therapists caught me in hallway this week and vented how worn down they are from taking care of their patients.

Alaska looks like a great option for vaca.....!

We have a number of customers in Yakima... the cultural, economic and homelessness challenges are so significant... we may need different strategies

They just shut most stuff down - Alaska, FYI

Thank you for all of the great info!!

Head to the Aleutians!

Sorry to have been late. Was there a discussion of what folk are doing as we are hearing of school plans in the fall?

Is there any info on other viruses that show possible long term issues for folks who are positive for it but don't have symptoms or get treatment?

there is a formula, that you need x% of negatives to state your result is 95% confidence interval. AZ running at 25% positives, so they are horribly under reported

Sheesh for me as a non medically trained person this slide's info is mind blowing....and if I'm honest pretty scary.

Already true with chronic disease patients...continuous dialogue and experience

in a future meeting can we talk about big giant groups of online providers stealing patients from us even though they don't physically practice anywhere near us....

Thank you for all the great information and things for us to think about.

Yes, thank you for your leadership.
