?? exChange Circle Webinar – Supercharge your Business - Adding Specialties for DSOs ?? Last Thursday, I had the privilege of moderating the Women in DSO exChange Circle webinar series on behalf of Straumann Group DSO Global, featuring three exceptional panelists from #DSOs. Together, we delved into the captivating topic of the impact of adding specialties for DSOs on profitability. While patient experience remains paramount for DSOs, achieving sustainable success also hinges on profitability. ?? Key Takeaways: CULTURE, LEADERSHIP, EDUCATION: Establishing a robust workplace culture and fostering leadership skills for doctors are crucial for scaling success. Investing in education and promoting a culture of continuous learning are pivotal drivers. Leadership among doctors plays a key role in ensuring a consistent commitment to delivering high standards of care. Moreover, educating patients about the importance of oral healthcare and implementing robust education programs for various roles within the practices further enhance the quality of care. ?? Key Challenges Explored: Jumoke Adedoyin, DDS, MICOI, MAAIP AFAAID: Navigating patient priorities amidst economic fluctuations poses challenges, particularly as dental care may not be a top priority for patients allocating disposable income. Standardizing quality of care across practices by streamlined processes is essential to ensure uniformity and high standards. Harnessing technology and making data-driven decisions are crucial for optimizing operations and ensuring efficiency. Niklas Virta: Educating patients on the value of services beyond the public system is vital. Striking a balance between streamlining processes and nurturing an entrepreneurial spirit is key. Culture serves as a cornerstone for success, and integrating specialists into the company is essential when adding specialties. Having these specialists fully embracing and embodying the company culture is essential to preserve a strong company culture that directly impacts profitability. Dr. Dev Patel BDS PG Dip: Getting specialty services to grow can be challenging for various reasons. In the UK, many patients associate dentistry with low-cost services due to the accessibility of NHS dentistry, leading to a lack of understanding regarding the value of specialty dentistry. It's essential to inform patients on the relevance of oral healthcare to overcome this perception. Educating dentists on effectively communicating the necessity and value of specialty services to patients is crucial. This engaging discussion illuminated the dynamic landscape of DSOs and provided invaluable insights for navigating challenges while fostering growth. Thank you Dr. Aman Kaur , Brenda McKinnon, and the Women In DSO? Team, as well as our esteemed panelists Jumoke Adedoyin, DDS, MICOI, MAAIP AFAAID, Dr. Dev Patel BDS PG Dip, Niklas Virta, and all participants for enriching this dialogue! #DSO #Profitability #GrowthStrategies?#Leadership #Education

? Exciting updates from Singular Health Group Ltd (ASX: SHG)! Last week, we signed a Memorandum of Understanding (#MoU) with Provider Network Solutions, LLC (#PNS), a Miami-based Managed Service Organisation (#MSO) that oversees the health of more than 3.7 million members in the US. This collaboration marks a significant step in tackling a critical healthcare challenge: the lack of #interoperability that leads to duplicate medical imaging exams. This issue not only costs the US healthcare system $30 billion annually but also causes patients unnecessary discomfort and delays in diagnosis and treatment. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Fraser Palamara from Stockhead to discuss the details of this exciting project and the role played by the 3Dicom - Medical Imaging Software, as well as the cornerstone investments driving its delivery. ?? Catch the interview here: https://lnkd.in/gs3-rTgh. Let me know your thoughts, and feel free to connect if you would like to explore the innovative work we are driving forward! ?? #HealthcareInnovation #MedicalImaging #Interoperability #3Dicom #ASX #Milestones

#SRS2024 in Orlando this week. Looking forward to gaining further insights on. -?????????????The ongoing stratification of: - ?surgical robotic platforms, - complexity of patients, and - centers of care that will continue to drive form factors. -?????????????Investors sessions provides insights as to potentially where the market is going and what is influencing investment dollars in venture, public markets, and PE. -?????????????Ongoing evolution of smaller form factors that open the adoption in specialized procedures and drive development towards a less complex “surgical robot” that provides entry in less than $100m required to play arena. -?????????????The discussions as we very well may have more larger format soft tissue surgical solutions cleared by the FDA this year than of all years combined and what that will mean to the industry. -?????????????Financing solutions and their impact on platform placements, investments, revenue models, and new surgical solutions. We will be there on the floor with Dragonfly - A TMG Company and conducting interviews in our full studio in the middle of the event. Drop on by and say hello.

?? Fighting Undilatable Coronary Lesions with Precision and Safety ?? The article, “OPN NCTM TWIN-Wall fighting against undilatable lesions,” highlights a groundbreaking solution for interventional cardiologists facing one of the most significant challenges in PCI—undilatable coronary lesions. In this study, the OPN NC? Super High-Pressure PTCA Balloon demonstrates its ability to successfully treat lesions that traditional balloons cannot. Operating at pressures up to 40 atm, OPN NC? balloons achieve uniform expansion, making them the ideal solution for calcified and complex lesions that demand maximum precision. The study revealed impressive outcomes: OPN NC? was able to dilate highly resistant lesions with remarkable safety and efficiency, significantly reducing the rate of complications. This further reinforces OPN NC?’s position as the go-to tool for treating complex coronary conditions, ensuring better patient outcomes and improved procedural success in even the most difficult cases. While we push the boundaries of what’s possible in PCI, radiation safety should never be overlooked. Procedures like these often involve extended use of fluoroscopy, exposing healthcare workers to significant levels of scatter radiation. That’s why RADPAD? Radiation Protection Shields are crucial. RADPAD? shields offer vital protection against ionizing radiation, ensuring that interventional teams can focus on delivering the best care while staying safe. Combining the precision of the OPN NC? Super High-Pressure Balloon with the safety of RADPAD? shields, interventional cardiologists can confidently tackle the most complex cases with optimal results and minimal risk.

According to Healthcare Bluebook, the cost of endoscopies can vary across the U.S. by as much as 200-300%. For reference, the average price range in New York is $1500 to $3500 but if you travel south a few hundred miles to Florida, the price range is smaller from $1000 to about $2200. Don't you think a vital procedure should cost the same for everyone? It is time we demand transparency and standardization in regards to Healthcare expenses. #endoscopy #healthcare #pricetransparency ahcdpc.com advocatesforhealthcare.org

Another great example of how 3D Printing is Improving Healthcare delivery and patient outcomes! Customized 3D-printed guides: 1) Minimize overall tissue trauma, and 2) Reduce the risk of damage to nervous and vascular structures. This, results in: - Fewer complications - Shorter recovery times, and - Lower chances of repeat surgeries. Not only does this benefit the patient, but it also frees up valuable time for both practitioners and surgical scheduling in an already overwhelmed healthcare system. Congrats Gary M. Turner and the Ricoh 3D team on the partnership with Insight Surgery! #3DPrinting #ImprovingHealthcare

For patients living with an LVAD, the risk of bleeding complications has always been a major concern. The ARIES-HM3 trial demonstrated that removing aspirin from the post-implant treatment regimen may significantly reduce these risks. This means fewer hospital visits, less time worrying about complications, and more time living life to the fullest. Today, I’m #AbbottProud to share that the FDA has approved a new labeling change for our HeartMate 3? LVAD, based on these groundbreaking findings. I encourage you to dig into the latest data to see how aspirin avoidance can help reduce the incidence of non-surgical and gastrointestinal bleeding events for newly implanted adult HeartMate 3 LVAD patients.
