Surfing the MASH Tsunami

S4-E9.5 - From the Vault: Discussing Comprehensive Care Models For NAFLD: Metrics, Key Performance Indicators and Improving Management

HEP Dynamics Season 4 Episode 9

This week, SurfingNASH is offering conversation segments to showcase our new series, The NASH Tsunami in Diabetes: Getting Ahead of the Rising Tide. Rising Tide, as we call it, is a subscription-only series targeted at the primary care physicians, endocrinologists and allied health professionals who provide front-line treatments for patients living with Type 2 Diabetes and/or obesity. In this episode From the Vault,  Jeff Lazarus and Roger Green discuss the ease of creating valuable metrics in a comprehensive care model, while our three practitioners -- Stephen Harrison, Jörn Schattenberg and Louise Campbell -- dive further into how they believe this model will improve care.

KEY POINT: Broadening the number and diversity of health care providers assigned to each individual patient will improve care by improving focus on the areas that count. It is important that system designers ask the right questions and answer them rigorously in context; it is undesirable for the systems to look more or less identical.
