Short version (turned into 6 somehow!):

  1. Covid numbers still rising in CO, team members still being affected.   Keep wiping things down and wearing masks when needed.
  2. Scripts not being discontinued reliably per Surescripts, see attached.  IT is working on a fix. 
  3. IV Contrast Shortage – helpful table below on how to prioritize ordering
  4. Centura Experience Training is for everyone ASAP – Check Learn Modules and attachment for options
  5. No more Doximity visits  - Use Epic platform, if it fails can convert to audio.  More clarification to come.
  6. Last but not least, support for everyone ongoing after more violence in Tulsa, OK.  Reach out to team members, call your senators, EAP details below.

Hope all can recharge at some point this weekend!

3.  Centura Experience Training:

 

  • In your learning home dashboard, you may have seen an assigned train the trainer LEARN module for the Centura Experience. As part of our mission to develop and grow our service and experience sector. Centura has involved many groups to develop what that should look like across our ecosystem.
  • Please speak with your leader to determine when your home clinic will be holding your training sessions.
  • If you are working inpatient services. There are available options at St. Anthony North 144th available. See the attached.

 

4.  Public Health Emergency Impact on virtual care:

 

  • There will be more information to come but there will be a migration coming our way from non-complaint virtual platforms. Below is what we know.
  • Here is a glance at the items extended by the Omnibus Bill for the next 151 days.
  • Telehealth Flexibility Location
  • Geographic & rural exceptions to allow for any site including the home to continue – no facility fee for these sites
  • Telehealth Flexibility Provider Type
  • Adds occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech-language pathologists, audiologists, and federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and rural health clinics (RHCs) to eligible provider list
  • Audio-Only
  • In-person visit requirement for telemental health
  • Use of telehealth for recertification of eligibility for hospice care
  • Items not extended by the omnibus bill
  • The enforcement discretion of video platforms without necessary contract agreements
  • This means Doximity, Doxy.me, and Facetime will be deemed not HIPAA compliant and able to be prosecuted.

5. Supporting you and your safety after the recent tragedy in Tulsa, OK

  • We hope the email from Dr. Lichtenberger and Jason Tacha reached everyone yesterday. I personally felt better after reading about this and becoming familiar with our active threat policy and procedure. Please see the attached to read the email and view the policy.
  • Please also see the available resources as we know times for all can be difficult. Please know you are supported.

 

If you are struggling and need resources, we have Profile EAP resources available to you 24/7. Please visit www.ProfileEAP.org (company code CENTURA) or call 800.645.6571 to speak to an EAP counselor at any time.

RE: September Book Club 9/10

  Hello!   So, this week is looking a bit chilly.  To make sure to enjoy the outdoors before it gets cold and we have to zoom all winter, I think we should move book club to Thursday, 9/17.  I hope everyone can still make it (and, you have an extra week to read the book!)    As a reminder, we will be discussing So You Want to Talk About Race - Ijeowa Ilua.      You have some more time to vote on location/food; please let me know if you haven’t voted yet, or would like to change your vote.   Anthem Park, just north of the hospital (where we had the last book club), with food from Ras Kassa’s Ethiopian restaurant in Lafayette. Green Valley Ranch town center park (in Northeast Denver), with food from African Grill and Bar (West African/Ghanian/Nigerian food).      Thanks everyone!   Sarah     *******************************************************...
