St. Paul, MN, January 24, 2023 – IC System, a nationally licensed collection agency headquartered in St. Paul, Minnesota, is proud to announce the promotion of Kristina Gursky to Vice President of Healthcare Client Success. Kristina will bring her extensive knowledge of the healthcare industry to this role.

“Kristina came to IC System as a process-improvement, strategy, and business analyst,” observed Joe Erickson, IC System’s Vice President of Human Resources and Client Success. “But most recently, she’s led us in managing IC System’s healthcare clients.”

Kristina has been in the revenue cycle industry since 1999. She joined IC System in 2005 as a National Healthcare Account Manager, after serving as a Healthcare Collections Specialist for Wright Medical Center in Clarion, IA, for over four years. She also maintains close ties to the American Association of Healthcare Administrative Management (AAHAM).

In 2020, Kristina became a member of the AAHAM National Patient Financial Advocate Task Force. Kristina also serves as the President of the MN Gopher Chapter of AAHAM. Additionally, Kristina holds AAHAM Certified Revenue Cycle Professional credentials, her HFMA Certified Revenue Cycle Specialist designation and a degree in Healthcare Administration.

“Ultimately, Kristina is an expert in revenue cycle management,” added Erickson. “And when I say ‘expert,’ I mean it. She is able to understand the complex nature of the healthcare industry. With this new role, she’s going to be helping us push forward our strategic initiatives in the healthcare industry. It’s a big job, but Kristina knows her stuff when it comes to this industry.”

“Collecting past due amounts from patients is a tough job, made even more challenging when working with complex third-party reimbursement rules and increasing industry regulations,” Kristina said. “I’m proud of the work IC System has done to ensure our processes remain compliant, patient-friendly, and solution-oriented while providing first-class service to our healthcare clients and partners. And I am excited to help IC System remain an industry leader in healthcare collection processes as the industry continues to evolve.”

Health systems are partnering up without changing who owns the hospital

Health systems are partnering up without changing who owns the hospital

Health systems are choosing alliances over mergers, per a July McDermott Will & Schulte analysis and four July deals tracked by Becker's Hospital Review. St. Christopher's, Nemours, Jefferson and Temple signed a nonbinding alliance letter; Palomar UC San Diego Health launched July 1. Ownership stays put; governance, purchasing and outpatient investment absorb the change.

  • 01In an alliance, the contract does the integrating that an org chart does in a merger: McDermott Will & Schulte says governance design, exclusivity, antitrust review, community commitments and exit rights all have to be settled before signing.
  • 02Purchasing is now explicitly on the table in at least one no-ownership deal, the St. Peter's Health and Billings Clinic-Logan Health talks in Montana, which means shared supply contracts can arrive without a change of control.

Telemedicine in eye care stops at the retinal scan unless imaging moves home

Telemedicine in eye care stops at the retinal scan unless imaging moves home

An Ophthalmology Times commentary by T.Y. Alvin Liu, Ferdinand Hui and Phillip Phan sorts eye patients into three telemedicine tiers by clinical need. Patients needing regular OCT scans benefit less unless a home device can send the image. Video tools already sit inside Epic and Cerner; the deciding purchase for retina clinics is the imaging device in the patient's living room.

  • 01The dividing line for eye telemedicine is imaging, not video: patients who need regular OCT scans benefit less from remote visits unless a device at home can send the scan, so a video license alone shifts few of those encounters.
  • 02The provider-side requirement, a HIPAA-compliant secured video platform, was already built into Epic and Cerner by 2020; the patient-side requirements (1.5 MB up and down bandwidth, a quiet private room, comfort with the technology) sit outside the health system's control and are the ones worth screening for at scheduling.
  • 03Self-administered home color fundus photography for tracking non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy was named as the nearer route into retina telemedicine; home OCT for wet AMD is the harder gate and the device to watch.

Value-based care reaches a quarter of revenue at 30% of surveyed health organizations

Value-based care reaches a quarter of revenue at 30% of surveyed health organizations

Wolters Kluwer Health argues value-based care software is judged on whether customers hit incentive thresholds and avoid penalties. A Fierce Healthcare-reported survey it cites puts value-based care at a quarter or more of revenue for 30% of organizations. The analysis is a vendor publication that ends by pitching its own UpToDate Connect API.

  • 01The sharper question for any population health or care coordination platform is whether it changes what a clinician does at the moment of decision, or only reports afterward what happened. Wolters Kluwer's reading of the evidence is that many platforms still struggle with the first.
  • 02Vendors selling into value-based contracts now face a build-or-license decision on clinical content, because Wolters Kluwer names current, trusted content, consistent clinician adoption across sites, and a traceable link from guidance to quality metrics as the three hard problems.
