Putting the ‘mind’ or the ‘me’ into
personalized medicine
Topics
People differ – what does that mean
People want pleasing experiences – even in
illness
What better things can do you say and do when
you knew what people want to experience
Examples of such knowledge
Does it really work
Outcome metrics – congestive heart failure
Scaling up for the future
People differ in how they respond
emotionally in a medical experience
Person to person differences
You don’t have to be a scientist or any type of
expert to know that there are differences
Just look around at the stores .. Not at the
products .. At the stores
People want different experiences Some want simple in and out
Others want entertainment
Others don’t even want to be there … use web
The same thing happens with the medical
experience
People differ in what they want
How do you get inside a person’s head?
And even if you could, what would you do?
Can science help?
People want ‘pleasant, positive’
experiences – even in medical
situations
Today it’s all about the customer
experience
Fred Reicheld developed the NPS .. Net promoter
score .. Would you recommend….
The NPS value is a placeholder for customer-
empowerment
Technology gives the customer the vote
Look at all the instant polls of experience
And in the medical world … the Press Gainey value
… just one
So when we talk personalized medicine…we
ought to remember the person, his/her MIND
A poor experience is a bad thing
financially
How do you create a pleasing
experience
Typical approach - questionnaire
Ask the respondent (e.g., patient) to describe the
experience
And then use that as a report card
Objective …. Improve the experience for the
patient using feedback
This isn’t personalization … it’s merely general
quality control
HCAHPS – Hospital Survey(32 questions)
Hospital level results are publicly reported on the Hospital Compare website 4 times a
year. HCAHPS results are based on 4 quarters of data on a rolling basis.
Composite topics
Nurse communication (questions 1, 2, 3)
Doctor communication (questions 5, 6, 7)
Responsiveness of hospital staff (questions 4, 11)
Pain management (questions 13, 14)
Communication about medicines (questions 16, 17)
Discharge information (questions 19, 20)
Care transition (questions 23, 24, 25)
Individual topics
Cleanliness of hospital environment (question 8)
Quietness of hospital environment (question 9)
Global topics
Overall rating of hospital (question 21)
Willingness to recommend hospital (question 22)
Examples from the Questionnaire
5. During this hospital stay, how often did doctors treat you with courtesy and respect?
1 Never
2 Sometimes
3 Usually
4 Always
12. During this hospital stay, did you need medicine for pain?
1 Yes
2 No If No, Go to Question 15
13. During this hospital stay, how often was your pain well controlled?
1 Never
2 Sometimes
3 Usually
4 Always
14. During this hospital stay, how often did the hospital staff do everything they could to help you
with your pain?
1 Never
2 Sometimes
3 Usually
4 Always
Point of view
The questionnaire is an evaluation of the
experience (bad to good)
There are NO SPECIFICS listed as being
desirable
There is NO WAY TO USE for an individual to
drive change..other than by guessing
There is NO TEACHING HERE, just a report card
Mind Genomics ----- Understanding
the patient’s ‘mind’ without years of
analysis on the couch
The reality of today pushes for
measureable experiences
The strive to measure makes ‘measurement’ the
end all and be all
ITRS (it’s the rating, stupid)
We behave according to the laws of reinforcement
Reinforcement scores..and whatever gets a high
score is important
And thinking…think about what will raise the score
Reminds us … of school…study for the exams, like
the SAT … rather than learning
An alternative idea
Let’s understand what the patient feels about
different touch points, experiences in a hospital
But without massive expenditures
Without masses of fairly expensive in-depth
interviews ..which are valuable but can’t cover the
full range
So I’ll talk about our approach
In the formative stages, with data
How we do it: S-R (stimulus
response)
Present vignettes of the experience .. Different
aspects
Get responses
Adherence – can you comply
Experience – do you find this pleasant
Use statistics to deconstruct vignettes into what
components ‘drive’ the response
Result – understanding the experience
We illustrate with data1. Understanding: Teens facing the hospital
2. Understanding: Talking to adolescents about weight
3. Understanding: What Afro Americans want for
health care
4. Convincing: Woman to select hospital in which to
give birth
5. Convincing: Communicating to the poorer Afro
American, for colo-rectal screening
6. Convincing: Congestive heart failure patients to
adhere to a healthier life style (and 70% DROP in
within-30-day-readmit)

to any single message but must be taken into account when assessing overall motivation of an analytical group.

What these numbers mean
• Constant represents people’s initial propensity to say yes (rating 7-9) on the 9-point scale
• A baseline.. In the absence of elements
• Each element generates an estimated driving power
• We are looking for standout messages which break through the clutter
• These stand out messages are the ones to use

The Control Seekers- These are girls who are not necessarily overweight, but feel
as though they have little control over their lives, and therefore seem to seek this
control by limiting how much they eat.

healthiest way, but aren't motivated to change their habits out of stubbornness and/or
laziness.

habits.

Talk about the benefits of screening…early detection prevents
death from colorectal cancer and why without screening
symptoms appear to late to cure. Also encourage the client
with concerns about the procedure to speak to someone they
trust.
This viewpoint is motivated to get a screening test to prevent
colon cancer. There is no discrimination across the test
messages because all of the messages are motivating.
Viewpoint 4
I Am Convinced…Don’t Talk About
Risks and Consequences
14% of sample
This group is highly motivated to get a screening test. Avoid
discussing risk factors, death and concerns related to colon
screening because these messages are behavioral barriers.

• Present vignettes about the experience
• Ask whether you could live with the regimen
• Develop individual models

So..what happened
• Step 1 – Apply viewpoint identifier
upon discharge … instructions to
read the discharge instructions
each day
• Step 2 - Measure re-admission
rates in an A/B test
• Step 3 – Look for commonalities of
those readmitted (most Segment
or Viewpoint #2 …It takes a
support group)
• Step 4 – Pay careful attention for
Segment 2 discharges
Knowing the mind of the patient can reduce readmissions
dramatically …presumably through adherence
Moving our patient understanding
to ‘industrial strength’
Up to now and forward We presented different studies, done for different
groups, at different times
We have good data, and when applied, meaningful outcomes
There are many touchpoints in in the health/wellness continuum?
What about creating a series of these studies (20+), to provide us foundational data
Then create the corresponding 20+ viewpoint identifiers
And type people all over the country, putting the information in their medical record!
In other words Can we know the person, the way we know the
person in our CHF?
And then create a knowledge base of the health/wellness/illness EXPERIENCE
Then…mind-type millions of people
Ensuring local, nation-wide, and then world-wide optimal health messaging, and optimal experience with the health-care systems?
Here is an example for the business
A retrospective from 2018
Identified 20 ‘health touch-points’
For each touch-point, did Mind Genomics for the US
population ….Identified the mind-set segments
Created a ‘typing wizard’ of 3-4 simple questions which
assigns a person to the segment
Created a set of 20 such 4-6 question viewpoint
identifiers
Used that to sequence the health-mind of the US customer
Now that sequenced health-mind is part of a patient’s
electronic health record
Any doctor or hospital know show to make the experience
exceptionally positive for that individual
