If we can get on a path that is a Federal path, where it’s legal, I also can see a world where Medicaid pays for this, where Medicare pays for this, where insurance companies pay for this, in a way that makes it viable for many more people, is my hope. We just don’t have that information, and people should just be careful.

It’s also what are the pieces of information we’re bringing to the table when we start providing care for residents? Those are evidence-based or evidence-informed tools that have been in practice. Eric: So Jasmine, we hit on care delivery, we also hit apparently on health information technology. Jasmine: Technology.

For example, putting the healthy food at the back of the grocery store is sludge; making an applicant for health insurance climb the flight of stairs to the office – weeding out those less fit – is also sludge. We tested two different nudges individually and then we combined them. Prior-auth forms? I highly encourage you.

It sets space between us and the individuals we’re trying to take care of. And then, I did a lot of introspection and realized that I’ve actually been doing this for folks in an informal way, family church members and friends, but I didn’t do it so well with my own mother. I often say that doulas are mirrors.

Eric: So in some ways, this is kind of like the VA, where you don’t have to follow Medicare guidelines, but you can actually actively do concurrent care for these individuals. Eric: Does the chaplaincy also provide support to them, or can they visit the hospice unit, those individuals? Michele: Yeah. We have that. Alex: Mm-hmm.

So, how can we improve palliative care for individuals in nursing homes? And that came down a lot of times to asking the provider whether they felt they met criteria and then also looking to see if they had the financial, like the proper insurance or things like that. Because when you’re on a SNF stay, hospice is also a part A.

And this seems very basic, but try it with your insurance agent or your pastor, you know, or your banker at 03:00 in the morning. So writing a eulogy or seeing that individual, we had an open casket, which was both very hard, but also, I would say, somewhat cathartic to actually do these rituals and participate in these rituals.

For those individuals, how do you think about that? I think a lot of people will think of like 16 or 24 milligrams sublingually just because that is what is insurance will pay for for the treatment of opioid use disorder. Sach 17:32 For me, it’s our first line opioid. For any MOC questions, please email moc@ucsf.edu.

I’ve been on a quest to build those services and support so that people can make true, informed decisions for themselves and their families. It was designed to really balance what Medicaid at the time was to provide nursing homes and Medicare is obviously health insurance. Susan: Yeah, I don’t think the word even surfaced.

It is the CME activity provider’s responsibility to submit participant completion information to ACCME for the purpose of granting ABIM MOC credit. I know Elizabeth has a lot of information about the way to structure the mediterranean diet. ABIM MOC credit will be offered to subscribers in November, 2024. Anna 07:06 Thank you.

I could walk down the hall and get information. You come over to the clinic, you go to the hospital, you provide service, and the insurance and you negotiate how much you’re going to get paid. That never happens in CMS and other health insurance. I found it to be an incredibly hard journey. I had a supportive spouse.
