Is virtual care the key to better, more equitable health outcomes? – Employee Benefit News

It wasn’t so long ago that the idea of taking a doctor’s appointment over Zoom was unfathomable — and even unappealing — to the bulk of consumers.

Times, of course, have changed.

In early 2020, just 7% of people in the U.S. had met with a healthcare provider virtually; by mid-2021, that number had jumped to 32%, according to a survey by Accenture. A quarter of respondents said their access to healthcare had improved since the onset of the pandemic, and more than 20% expressed interest in digital services.

“Through the past two years, people really got accustomed to remote services, really because they had to,” says Ellen Kelsay, CEO of Business Group on Health, a nonprofit that works with large employers to advocate for better solutions and innovation in healthcare. “But now we have to look at these solutions long-term, and make sure they are actually improving outcomes and reducing costs.”

The surge of tech-based solutions in healthcare has moved far beyond virtual visits. From advancements in remote patient monitoring to actual treatment delivered through new modalities, innovation continues to disrupt the healthcare space, bringing welcome change.

For folks battling chronic musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions, for example, Kaia Health is using technology in an effort to improve both access and care. The digital therapeutics company’s primary offering is an app that delivers virtual, artificial intelligence-based physical therapy. For a world that’s become accustomed to screen time, the offering is simple to adopt: log in on a smart device, prop it against a wall, and get to work. The day’s exercises will be demonstrated first, and once a user starts moving through the program, the app — with the help of the smart device’s camera — tracks 23 key points on the body, and will alert the user if they need to make any physical adjustments in real time.

“As it relates to MSK, in my mind, we’re achieving the holy grail of healthcare: delivering high quality care at reduced costs,” says Nigel Ohrenstein, president at Kaia Health, noting that the employer-provided program currently has 1.2 million active users. “You can’t do that by scaling people. You can only do that by scaling the tech piece with the human wrapper.”

Kaia Health

That “human wrapper” is Kaia’s ability to connect patients with in-person treatment if necessary, even coordinating a session with a local provider in the user’s home. That can certainly appeal to anyone who favors human interaction. Still, Ohrenstein says, the benefits of digital therapies stretch well beyond convenience, and are positioned to create even greater change in healthcare.

“I happen to live in the Bronx, and the life expectancy there is five years less than it is a mile and a half south in Manhattan, and one of the reasons is access to cash and access to quality care,” Ohrenstein says. “But the thing about digital therapeutics is, the camera doesn’t distinguish between ethnicity, and it doesn’t distinguish between wealth. It doesn’t get tired, it doesn’t get irritated, it doesn’t go to check on the patient next door and leave you doing exercises alone.”

Kelsay agrees that technology has certainly boosted access to care for most populations, pushing the industry in the direction of more equitable treatment. But technology, she stresses, is not a quick or singular fix.

“Technology is one of many ways to deliver care, and it shouldn’t be a complete replacement for other delivery models,” she says. “Think of pockets of communities or rural locations where broadband is not widely accessible, or of individuals who may live in shelters, where a video visit won’t be comfortable for them. We have to keep a watchful eye on the embrace of technology and make sure we’re not overlooking any groups or communities.”

That’s where employers have plenty of power, she says. The pandemic forced consumers to get comfortable with digital care, but as we emerge from the COVID-19 crisis, there must be an impetus to keep improving.

“Employers are now asking a lot of hard questions of their vendor partners on outcomes and data before they implement solutions,” Kelsay says. “They’re being intentional about what their expectations are — and there’s a need and a hunger for serving unique populations.”

For Kaia’s part, they are looking to expand by finding new ways to serve and treat additional conditions and patient communities. In addition to its MSK solution, Kaia has also created a digital therapy to support people suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The program is currently available in Germany and a U.S. rollout is expected in 2022. Unlike the MSK offering, which relies on visual tech capabilities, the COPD solution utilizes a smart device’s microphone to help a user strengthen lung health through breathing exercises.

That ease of use, as Ohrenstein sees it, is vital to get folks to embrace new technologies, and to stick with them. He’s seen firsthand the impact that can have on a patient’s progress, and is hopeful that Kaia — and the industry at large Kaia’s app will provide physical therapy instructions and offer corrections in real-time. — will continue on this trending path.

“I spoke to a patient and a Kaia user earlier, and she said it used to take her three hours to go back and forth to physical therapy, so she would go to two or three sessions and then stop,” Ohrenstein says. “But now, she’s a year into remaining highly compliant with our therapy because she can do it anytime that suits her. That’s putting her on a path to a better life with less pain and more mobility.”

Canada aims to gain from America’s tech talent loss – Axios

Canada sees a big opportunity in drawing tech talent north of the U.S. border and is making moves to seize it at every turn.

What’s happening: Canada’s approach to immigration laws, increasing government support and a polarized U.S. have helped lead the Great White North into a tech boom.

Why it matters: As U.S. tech giants face continuing difficulties in bringing in foreign high-skilled tech workers, Canada is adding more and more.

• Toronto is quickly catching up to San Francisco and New York as a top city for tech talent.

By the numbers: In 2021, Canada announced that it had welcomed the most immigrants in a single year in its history. Meanwhile, immigration to the U.S. in 2021 sharply declined by almost 50%.

• Canada’s startup scene has thrived, with venture capital invested in startups jumping from $2.1 billion in 2016 to $13.7 billion in 2021, per Pitchbook data.
• In April, Canada said it would dedicate $1 billion (about $780 million USD) over five years to create an agency focused on investing in science and technology innovation.

Between the lines: Canada’s gains in tech talent started during the hard-line immigration policies of the Trump era, which seems to have pushed people out of the U.S. as much as it lowered domestic immigration rates.

What they’re saying: Canada wants to be the go-to place for tech entrepreneurs, governments leaders said last week during onstage interviews at Toronto’s Collision tech conference.

• “For me, it’s not good enough to be in the parade. We want to lead the parade,” said François-Philippe Champagne, Canada’s minister of innovation, science and industry, during an onstage interview.
• “Immigration is the greatest competitive advantage we have,” said Sean Fraser, Canada’s minister of immigration, during an interview with Axios at Collision. “Immigration isn’t what we do, it’s who we are.”

Context: Immigration is far less politicized in Canada than it is in the U.S., and Canada’s parliamentary government system makes it easier to pass immigration laws based on current economic need or global climate.

• In 2017, Canada launched a Global Skills Strategy visa program to make it easier to bring in foreign workers with specific technology or business skills, allowing firms to have a position pre-approved and get visas within two weeks — a stark contrast to the months-long U.S. visa process.
• The Canadian government is also aiming to pass a bill that would speed up immigration supporting particular labor needs based on sector, Fraser said.

Be smart: The biggest and richest tech companies in the world are all U.S. born. But Canada’s leaders think that could change fast.

• Fraser pointed to Canadian company Shopify, founded by a German immigrant: “We’re trying to set the stage so people around the world say, holy smokes, Canada is begging us to come to business there, and providing us with the tools we need to succeed once we come.”

Meanwhile, in the U.S.: The tech industry is struggling with a massive immigration backlog, as Axios previously reported.

• Excruciatingly long waits for green cards means the U.S. loses out on tech talent, resulting in calls for fixes to the system from major companies like Microsoft and Google.
• The U.S. has an annual limit of 85,000 H-1B visas per year, far too few for the number of applicants. Canada does not have a similar cap.

Yes, but: Canada has its own backlogs.

• There are complaints that Canada’s Startup Visa Program, launched in 2013 and meant to draw people to start companies in Canada, is too slow.
• Canada must also make room for its new residents: “We have to do some long-term planning to make sure that we establish a greater absorptive capacity in our communities,” by building new housing, said Fraser.

The bottom line: Canadian government leaders are bullish that immigration and tech sector growth is key to economic success.

• “Beyond the magic with these world-class cities like [New York and San Francisco] … the tech opportunity in [Toronto] is every bit as large,” said Fraser.

Is Bitcoin Dead? Here Is What The Fundamentals Are Showing – Forbes

The price of Bitcoin BTC is down 55.55% year-to-date and that has led to the speculation that it is dead and its price will never recover. In the past year, it has fluctuated between a high of $68,789 and a low of $17,708, supporting its extreme volatility and giving Bitcoin critics ample evidence to support their claim that Bitcoin is no longer viable.

According to Bitcoin content website 99 Bitcoins, 17 credible news sources and celebrities have announced that Bitcoin is dead in 2022, with the latest article coming from American Left-based magazine Jacobin.

If the price of oil -another commodity- crashed by 55.55% in six months, would you say that oil is dead? Any reasonable stakeholder in the oil market would consider the fundamentals of the oil market, such as demand, supply, government policies, competing energy sources, and so on. If all of the factors turned out to be relatively positive, the price drop would begin to look like an opportunity. So, what are the most important Bitcoin fundamentals to keep in mind?

Bitcoin hash rate

This refers to the total amount of computing power used by the Bitcoin network. It assists Bitcoin stakeholders in estimating the network’s level of decentralization and security. According to digital assets company Blockchain.com, the Bitcoin hash rate has been in a bullish trend and it reached an all-time high on June 12, 2022.

This indicates that the amount of computing power dedicated to supporting the Bitcoin network is trending close to its all-time high and that the Bitcoin network has never been more secure.

When Bitcoin’s price fell below $20,000 two weeks ago, some miners were mining Bitcoin at a loss, according to cryptocurrency ranking platform CryptoRank.io. That is, the cost of mining one Bitcoin was significantly higher than the price of Bitcoin. So, why would miners push the hash rate to an all-time high when the value of each Bitcoin mined was close to or less than the production cost?

Bitcoin Supply

Bitcoin’s supply is limited to 21 million coins. The total supply of Bitcoin, however, is slightly more than 19 million, with the remaining two million yet to be mined. Around one million bitcoins mined by Satoshi Nakamoto have never left their initial wallet and are assumed to be locked forever.

People have misplaced the private keys to their Bitcoin wallets over the years. If the keys are never recovered, the Bitcoin stored in those wallets may be lost forever. This means there are a lot more Bitcoins out of circulation. This makes Bitcoin the hardest asset to obtain because it is costly to produce more (read mining), and there is a hard market cap of 21 million.

Institutional adoption of Bitcoin is on the rise, and more institutions are looking to add some level of Bitcoin exposure to their balance sheets. This is an indication that supply is going to get tighter.

Bitcoin’s Lightning Network

This refers to a second layer built on the Bitcoin network that allows Bitcoin transactions to take place outside of the blockchain. It speeds up transactions and reduces transaction costs. The Lightning Network solved Bitcoin’s scalability issue. The world can use the Lightning Network to execute millions of Bitcoin transactions per second and make micropayments at extremely low transaction fees.

According to Arcane Research’s The State of Lightning Volume 2 report, the Lightning Layer is rapidly becoming the technology behind Bitcoin becoming the internet’s native currency, as the number of users grows exponentially and the number of lightning transactions approaches 4,000 Bitcoin.

Paco De La India, an Indian travelling to 40 countries in 400 days using only Bitcoin, is one of the best examples of the Lightning Network’s power. He is currently on day 282 and frequently uses Bitrefill to spend Bitcoin on the Lightning Network. Bitrefill is a fintech company that allows you to buy products and pay for services by taking your Bitcoin equivalent and paying the vendor in their native currency.

Digital assets regulation

Governments all over the world are softening their stance on digital assets and putting in place regulatory frameworks to capitalize on this technology. While some governments, such as El Salvador and the Central African Republic, are pursuing full-scale adoption, others are simply regulating cryptocurrency exchanges and taxing cryptocurrency gains.

The most notable regulations are Australia’s two spot Bitcoin ETFs (exchange traded funds), Binance’s Dubai license, The Purpose spot Bitcoin ETF in Canada, and the European Union’s current legislative package to govern digital assets.

A majority of corporations that are looking to add Bitcoin exposure to their balance sheet are not able to do so because of their respective government’s ban on Bitcoin transactions or lack of a regulatory framework.

As more jurisdictions lay down a regulatory framework for digital assets, more institutions and individuals will have the confidence and proper structures to adopt Bitcoin and other digital assets.

The above-mentioned factors haven’t reasonably changed negatively to support a massive price drop. There are other factors affecting Bitcoin such as the correlation with equities, that could be used to explain the massive price drop, but the fundamentals relating to the Bitcoin network and its uses seem to be improving over time. Clearly, the factors discussed above indicate that Bitcoin is not dead.

Cryptocurrency exchanges may also have contributed to the massive price drop by practicing rehypothecation and selling paper bitcoin to unsuspecting clients. The recent moves by major crypto exchanges limiting clients’ ability to withdraw their assets indicate that clients’ claims on exchanges are higher than the assets held by the exchanges.

Students Got a Crash Course in Tech During the Pandemic. Now Some Want a Break – EdSurge

We are just over two years into the pandemic for COVID-19, and my students are finally back in the classroom and learning in-person. Keeping my students motivated is still a challenge, and I’ve noticed an important change in their attitude to technology: Just using tech for activities and projects has not been inspiring my students like it did before the pandemic.

Before the pandemic, my students perked up when they heard that they would be using technology as a medium to complete an activity or a project. They were always excited to try out a new program or website, to create their own productions with sound and animation or to record a podcast or a digital story. Using technology to complete projects was always an organic way for students to work together, explore technology and present their work in creative ways. In many instances, these experiences with technology greatly improved my students’ retention of course material and made their learning experiences more engaging.

Being a middle school teacher, learning on Zoom was hard for the majority of my students. They were tasked with sitting in front of their screens for the majority of the day while learning remotely. If that was not enough, they were also forced to learn and interact with a melting pot of different sites and programs that were used by their different teachers.

Very quickly, technology was becoming more of a burden for students than a tool to enhance their learning.

Now that we’re back in person, I’ve had to keep this in mind when planning activities and projects.

A Shift in Thinking and Planning

When I embarked on my first unit project after returning to in-person learning, and I presented our technology project on ancient Egypt, I was met with frowns and sighs. I had never gotten this reaction from my students after presenting them with a project.

Usually, my students are electrified with ideas and cannot wait to begin. Their reactions really made me think about how I use technology in my teaching, and why I want my students to use it as a medium to complete their projects. My aim was always to make my students’ learning more memorable and engaging, but now my methods were backfiring on me.

I did not want my students to suffer through this project, so I decided to amend it a bit. Instead of requiring my students to all complete the same podcasting project, I decided to give them choices. I created a choice board for the ancient Egypt project and brainstormed different project options, with some that required the use of technology and some that did not. When I distributed my choice board, to my surprise, the majority of students chose project options that did not require the use of technology.

After observing this phenomenon, I wanted to dig deeper. I asked my students to write a few lines about why they chose their project option. The responses revealed a few common themes. Most of my students reported that they wanted a break from their screens. They wanted to do a project that was more hands-on that allowed them to work more off-screen. Other students reported that using technology for projects can be really frustrating for them, especially when things do not go as planned and they are forced to troubleshoot their problems. Those students also reported that projects that require the use of technology can take much longer to complete and perfect because of all the small details that go into them.

Lessons Learned

After viewing all the projects produced for the ancient Egyptian unit, I was pleasantly surprised by what was submitted. My students really took ownership of their project choices, and I suspect the outcomes were much better than they were when they were required to complete a specific project and did not have any choices. It was choice, not technology, that inspired my students.

Through this process, I learned many important lessons. I realized that many of my students are fatigued by the use of technology. Teachers required a lot of them during distance learning, and it is only right to give them a reprieve. A reprieve does not mean I am making things easier for my students. It means that I am now giving them choices.

Although my students gained many valuable tech skills while learning remotely, they were not all motivated to use them upon their return to the classroom.

Each of my students is different, and they all have different skill sets and interests. By giving them choices, I am allowing them to decide what medium is best for them.

And these days, I’ve discovered that using technology does not always motivate my students. Giving them choices has inspired my students to really immerse themselves in what they are learning and demonstrate their learning in a way that best fits their skillsets. After a break from being forced into using technology, my hope is that their love for the use of technology will return.

Solawave advanced skincare wand review – Mashable

It’s no secret that skincare is trending right now, and a quick glance at social media proves it. Celebrities and influencers alike have hopped on the “skincare as self-care” train, and the resulting swarm of must-have products can be overwhelming to say the least. From the best Korean beauty products to the latest skincare gadgets, there’s a lot to choose from. However, while skincare has (thankfully) come a long way from scrubbing your skin off with microbeads, it hasn’t gotten any easier to decide if a product is nothing but hype or a true holy grail.

Enter Solawave’s advanced skincare wand(opens in a new tab) with red light therapy. Touted as a science-backed, four-in-one skincare tool, this tiny wand is on a mission to be the next must-have in your medicine cabinet.

So how does it work? 

As a novice skincare enthusiast, I was definitely intrigued by the SolaWave the first time I saw it on social media. It was cheaper than many of the skincare devices I’d seen in the past, and — with celebrities like Doja Cat, Vanessa Hudgens, and Reese Witherspoon reportedly loving the device — I immediately wanted to know more. The company’s website explains that the tiny device combines four different skincare technologies — red light therapy, microcurrents, facial massage, and therapeutic heat — to provide what the company describes as the “ultimate at-home spa facial.” 

I’d heard about all of these techniques in the past. Red light therapy, for example, is touted as a way to reduce the appearance of wrinkles, scars, redness, acne, and more. And microcurrent facials? I’ve heard some people swear that zapping a low-level electrical current through your skin is better than botox. 

However, while none of these technologies are new — and the science behind them definitely shows promise — I also have a healthy dose of skepticism around whether or not a tiny pen-sized wand can deliver the same results as professional-grade equipment.

I put it to the test

Straight out of the box, I was surprised at how tiny the SolaWave was in my hand. Just over the size of a pen with a convenient swivel head, the tiny device uses “smart-touch activation” meaning it turns on and off when the ceramic head comes into contact with your skin. After charging the device according to the instructions in the package, it was time to get to work. 

While the SolaWave turns on immediately when it comes into contact with your skin, the company explains that it works best on hydrated skin. Rather than fuss around with finding the right product, I opted to stick with their recommended Renew Complex Activating Serum. With ingredients like blue tansy oil, hyaluronic acid, and Aloe vera, the serum is designed to help evenly distribute the microcurrent therapy across your skin, so I washed and dried my face, applied a thin layer of the serum, and got started.

How does it feel? 

I’m not going to lie, the first few seconds of swiping the SolaWave wand across my skin felt odd. I was expecting a stronger sensation due to the microcurrent, but it felt like a gentle tingling sensation spreading out from the smooth ceramic head of the device. Against my skin, the device felt warm — it gradually increased in temperature the longer I used it — without being hot or uncomfortable.

I started using the wand at the base of my neck, following the instructions in the package to glide it upward and outward as I gradually moved along each side of my face. During my first session, I started small — SolaWave recommends starting with a five-minute session, three to five times a week — and I found that I actually enjoyed the process.

It was super relaxing to use the device on my face and neck, and it almost felt like the device was making it easier for my skin to absorb the products I was using, so my skin felt way more hydrated than normal.

But does it actually work? 

Immediately after using the red light therapy wand, I was surprised to find that I noticed a slight improvement in my skin. It wasn’t dramatic or anything — if I hadn’t taken a selfie earlier that evening, I probably wouldn’t have noticed — but there was a visible reduction in puffiness around my eyes, cheeks, and jawline.

Over the next two weeks, I diligently included the SolaWave in my skincare routine. I used it both morning and evening, typically right after washing my face and applying a toning essence and the Renew Complex serum, around five or six days a week. Eventually, I started extending my SolaWave sessions by a few minutes at a time — adding some focused attention to areas of my face that were holding tension, needed some extra de-puffing, or looked a little dehydrated — and I was surprised by how well it worked. 

By the end of my second week, my skin was definitely looking better: A few hormonal acne scars on my chin had faded, the redness in my cheeks went down, and I swore to my partner that a broken capillary on my cheek had completely disappeared. On days when my seasonal allergies had me waking up with puffy bags under my eyes, I was thrilled to discover that the SolaWave was a great way to quickly knock them out. While I didn’t notice a huge difference in fine lines or wrinkles (at 32, I only have a few fine lines on my face that are noticeable when I’m dehydrated) I was still shocked by how well the device worked. 

Is it worth it? 

Honestly, I’ve got to say yes, the SolaWave(opens in a new tab) is worth it. I’ve seen several at-home skincare devices, including red light therapy masks and microcurrent facial devices, that cost anywhere from $200 to $500. Compared to these, the SolaWave advanced skincare wand’s $149 price tag is a breeze. It’s still a little more expensive than the beauty devices you might see on the shelf at Target, but considering how well it worked, it’s definitely worth the splurge.

If you want to save a few bucks, you can also swap out SolaWave’s Renew Complex serum with one of your own favorites. At $32 a bottle, it’s a little pricey compared to my favorite serums, and I didn’t notice much of a difference when I started experimenting with a few I already had on hand. Thankfully, the company’s website says it’s totally fine to swap in your own products — especially if they contain conductive ingredients to help make the most of the microcurrent technology — so you can try using it with products that you already know work well with your skin.

If you’re still on the fence? I’d recommend following SolaWave on social media or checking out the website. The company frequently offers sales on its products, so you might be able to save a bit of money by snagging a discount code on the website.
