"The sad reality is that if the volume is going up, and the budget to accommodate it isn’t rising equivalently, that can only mean one thing: a reduction in price for the service." Dr. Parker's thoughts raise important questions about the sustainability of our healthcare providers under financial strain. What do you think will be the outcome? 👉 Join the discussion, comment below and help shape our understanding of these critical healthcare issues. #Healthcare #CancerCare #BCGov #MedicalDiagnostics #radiologybilling #medicalbilling
🌟 What do you think the impact on billing will be for the recently announced expanded access for cancer diagnosis by the British Columbia Government? Some friends we’ve been chatting with are secretly a little worried about the upcoming plan for growth in cancer diagnoses. Not heard? - https://lnkd.in/gv98ubiR On the face of it, that sounds like great news for radiologists… more diagnostic procedures. But just last summer, we heard about dire financial issues for diagnostic clinics… - https://lnkd.in/gaerzbup On the verge of shutting their doors - and it’s not because of low patient volume. You can see in the article, frequent references to patient wait times. So that leaves only one possibility: insufficient remuneration. Now it's not like the BC health system has tons of extra funding. On the contrary, the BC government is committing significant resources to the challenge. - https://lnkd.in/grHyqPpY Recently negotiated additional federal funding won’t cover this: https://lnkd.in/gwHjKP5j So where’s the shortfall for the 16000 to 44000 new diagnostic procedures - almost tripling going to come from? The sad reality is that if the volume is going up, and the budget to accommodate it isn’t rising equivalently, that can only mean one thing: a reduction in price for the service. Now, we’re not saying that’s what’s going to happen, but we ARE starting to hear whispers of concerns about this. More cost pressures for the service? Wouldn’t surprise me, but during a time of significant inflation, might this break the back of diagnostic imaging providers? What do you think? POLL - Share your vote in the comments below! ✅ Yes - we expect some significant reduction in cancer diagnostic fee codes. ✅ No - we don’t expect a significant reduction in cancer diagnostic fee codes. ✅ No Way - there’s already a shortage of radiologists, and reductions in fee codes would just push qualified staff away, there’s no WAY the government could reduce the fee codes, heck, I expect them to increase them. ✅ Not Sure - there’s augments both ways

🌟 Will AI work with your data as a “mother tongue” or as a phrasebook tourist? Children learn a “mother tongue” by hearing and speaking it regularly. LANGUAGE LEARNING - MOTHER TONGUE VS. PHRASEBOOK TOURIST - IT’S NOT THE SAME Then when they learn other languages, they learn basic words. But, it takes a lot longer to learn the subtleties - the construction, the grammar, the idioms. Those come by translation from the mother tongue. This causes wrong grammar and literal idiom translation. People learn when native speakers correct them. But, what happens when that doesn't happen? The errors perpetuate. An article looked at accent development in Antarctica. (reference: https://lnkd.in/gqMWXX4Z). The article shows how isolation caused shifts in language. The shifts included pronunciation and meaning. LEARNING TASKS - IT TAKES TIME AND WORKS BETTER ON TASKS DIRECTLY TRAINED TASKS Now imagine transitioning healthcare admin staff. They take months to learn the local language. The nuance, the assumptions, the rules… As they do, their productivity improves as well. No surprise - people take time to learn. And they improve their performance on tasks on which they train. The same is true for LLMs. The performance of models on tasks improves with prior training on those tasks. (https://lnkd.in/grbShDGQ). But isn’t healthcare data absolute… scientific? From an LLM perspective… no. Radiologist strategies for reporting often differ. (Reference: https://lnkd.in/gsR2WFc9). IS NOT SHARING YOUR DATA HURTING LLMS FROM WORKING WELL WITH YOUR DATA - LOSING YOU “MODEL SHARE”? So, if you don’t share your data with model development, you might prevent AI from working for you. And if you never share it, AI might never work as well for your group as it will for others that have. But how is this playing out elsewhere? In marketing, many top copywriters are sharing their secrets. They are sharing them with: a) technology companies, and b) other copywriters. Why? So the AI works better for them. They, and their followers, are training the models to think of copywriting the way they think of it. They’re developing “model share”. And that raises a question. Is not sharing your data with model developers going to cost you model share? Are you going to pay for not sharing one transaction at a time? Because when the models eventually hit your data, it: a) doesn't work as well, and b) requires more human effort? All because you don’t have model share? Put another way, will LLMs use your data as a “mother tongue” or as a phrasebook tourist? #AIinHealthcare #DataSharing #LargeLanguageModels #MachineLearning #HealthcareInnovation #NLP #ArtificialIntelligence #ModelTraining #DigitalTransformation #TechTrends #businessinsider #sciencedirect
