Why is Innovation important?To compete, grow, and thrive, providers must out innovate
Dollars

innovation supports:
• Market share growth
• Investment returns
• Operational efficiency
• Value based care
What is Innovation?
Innovation is the creation of better
processes, technologies or business models
(Different than Invention or Improvement)Innovators

Innovation Mantras
Little Bets ���� Big Wins
Fail Early, Fail fast,
Fail Often, Fail Cheap

Key Levers for InnovationRegulations, Reimbursement & Usability
CURRENT FUTURE
Government Regulations which enforce
“Hero-based” face to face care
Regulations which support
Team based care, Telehealth
and Care Automation
Payors Reimbursement which
rewards volume based care
Reimbursement which
rewards value based care
Vendors EMR/HIT Usability that is
often horrible
EMR/HIT Usability that truly
makes it easier to practice
great medicine
RESULTS Innovate to Volume with weak
tools and restrictive policies
Innovate to Value with better
tools and supportive policies
Can we Innovate with Today’s HIT?Let Me Tell You A Story…
•Care Coordination
•Preventive Care and Dz Management
•Adverse Event Detection
EMRs
•eVisits, eConsults
•Patient Portals, Home Monitoring
•Tele-Pharmacists, Tele-Translators
TeleHealth
•Mobile EMRs, Smart Rooms
•Analytics, Dashboards, Checklists
•ePanels, CrowdSourcing and Gaming
Advanced
Technologies
Identify the “Minimum Viable Innovation” and Operationalize at YOUR organization
(it’s OK to “borrow”)
• Medstar’s Care Gap Protocols
• SETMA’s Pre-Visit Preventive Screening Tool
• Reliant Medical Group’s Pre-Visit Orders
Innovating Around the EMR
People and Process > IT
•Northwestern’s Inflection Navigator Program
•Children’s National Automatic Adverse Event Detector
•California’s Tele-Translator System
It’s OK to Start Small
• Memorial Hospital’s “Mommy Monitor”
• Exploring Devices Kinect, Google Glass,
• Competitions, Crowdsourcing & Grants
• Inpatient iPad Pilot
Apply New Innovation Tools
to Old Problems(Video Ethnography for Extreme Diabetics)
Mash Up Wild Ideas
with Technologies Commonly Used in
Other Industries
• UPMC’s SmartRoom
• Kaiser’s Online Panel
• Gaming: SnowWorld, ReMission and Dr. Hero
Understand and Embrace the Power of Doctor Happiness
Because there is no quality without use
“Although both
made life better for
patients,
only one
made life better
for doctors.”

Slow Ideas: Some innovations
spread fast. How do you speed
the ones that don’t?
