q  Disruptive Innovation

n  Value-based healthcare delivery

q  The only way to contain costs is to improve healthcare outcomes: in a value-based system, achieving and maintaining good health is inherently less costly than dealing with poor health.

q  Principles of Value-Based Health Care Delivery

Prevention -Early detection -Right diagnosis -Right treatment to the right patient -Early and timely treatment -Treatment earlier in the causal chain of disease -Rapid cycle time of diagnosis and treatment -Less invasive treatment methods *Source: Michael Porter, Harvard Business School 2010

-Fewer complications -Fewer mistakes and repeats in treatment -Faster recovery -More complete recovery -Less disability -Fewer relapses or acute episodes-Slower disease progression -Less need for long term care -Less care induced illness

q  Disruptive Innovation – cont’d.

n  Personalized Medicine/Healthcare

q  Overview

§  This system has been described as personalized health care-treatments and services targeted to the biology of the individual, leading to potentially significant improvements in patient care.

§  New technologies offer the potential for revolutionary changes in the development and distribution of personalized medications, along with the practice of medicine - from molecular diagnostic tests that detect disease before symptoms are evident - to patient profiling techniques that help predict which patients are most likely to benefit from or be harmed by specific therapies/medications. These approaches and the extensive data they require will need to be supported by a new information architecture.

§  Personalized Medicine has given the diagnostics field a huge boost in terms of publicity/public attention, revenue potential, and investment interest.

q  Implications

§  Will require a new approach to technology assessment and dissemination, one that embraces the tremendous potential of the vision of personalized medicine.

§  Will have an enormous impact on supply chains and sales forecasting for pharmaceutical companies and drug distributors (e.g. gender specific drugs, costs of drugs, going from commodity drug supply to tailored drug supply)

§  New business models will have to be designed to accommodate the change in drug development, supply chain management and entry into new markets.

Company X Whitespace Innovation Study – Final Report n  II. Key Healthcare Trends Emerging (Global)

q  Long-term Outlook (Healthcare, Medicine) – cont’d.

q  Major Changes over Next 20 Years

§  Innovation will come from the private sector (mHealth, eHealth, Health IT), not from the US government

§  In 3-5 years, will see a lot more connectivity between mHealth, eHealth, Health IT solutions and related devices

§  Data Explosion: We will see more cloud computing and hosted informatics solutions and services, resulting in much better health-related data analysis. Integration of all the data will be challenging, however, and could take 5-10 years before the data is totally integrated. Will take longer, worldwide.

§  New healthcare payer business models will evolve. Healthcare payers will gather more critical diagnostic and usage data from patients (home-based), which will in turn help with more efficient case management analysis, etc.

§  Medication management will come into its own. Pharmaceutical companies will provide venture capital to fund advanced medical device development that will provide monitoring, and advanced diagnostics for patients, for example. These initiatives will also provide critical data of medication usage for more efficient drug procurement and management of medications.

Company X Whitespace Innovation Study – Final Report

n  III. Key Healthcare Policy Initiatives & New Healthcare Models

q  U.S. (New Models, Drivers, Inhibitors)

n  Now in the midst of the biggest capital infusion of money; the US federal government has invested $36 Billion into EMR and PHR and related healthcare technologies, with goal being by 2014 that a majority of the population have electronic health records. The onus is on the physicians/providers to migrate paper health records over to digital formats. The physicians will be provided with monetary incentives to this migration.

n  Inhibitors: Migrating patient health records over to a digital format is still a tortured Technology adoption by physicians is and will be the largest driving force in health IT. We are not there yet, since the adoption numbers are still low. It will take from 3- 5 years for this migration (estimate). It will take a little longer than people expect but it is definitely on the track.

q  International (New Models, Drivers, Inhibitors)

n  Healthcare is a crucial sector for the economy of European Member States (EU); in particular, the increase of elderly people and chronic diseases asks for new models of care, able to assure an economically sustainable evolution of the healthcare systems (Council of the European Union (2007)

n  Within each country (EU), there is a need to assure the continuity of care across healthcare facilities and to facilitate the access to healthcare and social services. A key challenge is the close coordination of the activities of the healthcare (and social) professionals for shared care, as well as the proactive involvement of the patients themselves and of their families (patient empowerment) in the daily management of the diseases.

Regenerative Medicine (Sub: Bio-Medical Printing Materials)

• Building on advances in physical and 3D printing technologies, artificial constructions of biomedical materials are becoming a reality. Developments that allow for rapid printing of medicines, artificial prosthetics and human tissue point toward future access to medical support any-where and on demand.

• Opportunity: Personalized dosage printing – Allows for customized dosages and other healthcare delivery based on an individual’s needs.

• Opportunity: Extended reach – Decentralized production of medical supplies, enhanced supply chain shipping/distribution, access to hard-to-reach locations

• Opportunity: “Pill on Demand”- There could be a better way for medicating complex formulations (especially for the elderly), namely a "pill on demand" system that combines macroscopically normalized powders with a "base" material, and cranks out pills on demand, in any combo-formulation required. This would be an enormous step forward for the pharmacists and doctors who could deliver drugs more uniformly (especially for the elderly) over the day.... where the active dose per day is custom-divided into the pill-size - and could even accommodate missing doses, or tardy administration through slightly upgraded formulary.

• Opportunity: Digital gastronomy – Stores favorite ingredients and food components and allows them to print food using ink jet-like nozzles.

•  3D Bio printers (e.g. can create new blood vessels, etc.-e.g. Organovo (open to investments) 2-3 year investment

•  Bio printers that can spray skin cells onto wounds (Wake Forest University, NC)

•  Bio printers than can print “personalized” pills (University of Leeds, UK and GSK)

Telehealth/Telemedicine/Telesurgery/Telenursing/Teleradiology Global Perspective: The fastest growing areas in Telemedicine/Telehealth have been in South America. Brazil, Argentina and Chile have many programs running right now and have many different ways to fund these programs. The government is also involved in majority of those programs. Some projects in Colombia are funded by the government, but most are funded through grants from Europe and Canada. India and China also very active in telehealth/telemedicine services, technologies, etc.

•  Telemedicine will be the enabling technology for an entire new generation of walk-in clinics. In the foreseeable future, immediate access to world-class experts could also become commonplace. •  Two are the main telemedicine market segments : Doctor to Doctors and Doctors to Patient •  Doctor-to-doctor / Second Opinion or hospital to doctors are those applications targeting opinion sharing between specialist or centre of excellence to make decisions on diagnosis or for continuous medical education purposes. ( Second Opinion between doctors / hospitals, mainly data exchange and consultancy between experts, essential to make medical decisions in real time to address diagnoses issues with the aid of remote medical experts consultations with the advantage to allow doctors to compare their opinions and clear any doubts essential in remote areas, lacking of specialist doctors ) • Doctor-to-patient / Home care that is to say doctor visiting patients for routing health control, psychological support or homecare monitoring of vital parameters, as it is the case for early hospital discharge or chronic illness patients (allows patients to benefit from medical visits in their own home, without having to stay long time in a hospital for post surgery control or for chronicle illness. Well applied when daily or periodic medical control are requested for health care, monitor parameters such as blood pressure, temperature, heart beet and frequency, oxygen saturation, ECG, etc.)
