NEWS PatientsLikeMe partners with Genome Medical to deliver accessible, geneticsdriven healthcare solutions, empowering patients with personalized insights and innovative care pathways PatientsLikeMe the leading patient engagement and activation platform for people living with chronic and complex conditions, proudly announces a strategic partnership with Genome Medical, a leader in telehealth genetic services. Building on a legacy of transformative partnerships, this collaboration represents another step in PatientsLikeMe’s strategy of integrating comprehensive healthcare services into its communities to empower patients to manage their health more efficiently. PatientsLikeMe Partners with Genome Medical to Expand Access to Genetic Care and Improve Patient Outcomes By incorporating Genome Medical’s genetic counseling and testing services, PatientsLikeMe aims to provide its members with personalized insights into their genetic health. This integration will enable patients to make informed decisions about their healthcare, from understanding their genetic predispositions to managing chronic conditions more proactively.

By offering access to Genome Medical’s genetic expertise directly through the PatientsLikeMe community, PatientsLikeMe is taking a significant step towards a more holistic approach to patient support, ensuring that our members have the tools and support they need to navigate their health journeys with confidence. “We are thrilled to partner with Genome Medical to bring advanced genetic services directly to our members.

MEDPLI, a leading independent medical malpractice insurance broker, is expanding services to help healthcare staffing companies attract and protect top talent with affordable, A-rated medical malpractice coverage. MEDPLI is developing a custom process for healthcare staffing companies that minimizes the burdens of application management, insurance carrier evaluation, and compliance with relevant state and federal legislation. The U.S. Healthcare staffing industry is expected to surpass $43 Billion by 2033 as many healthcare facilities turn to contract providers as the solution to the nation’s ongoing clinical workforce shortages, especially in underserved, rural communities. In response to the physician shortage, for instance, employment demand for Nurse Practitioners (NPs) is expected to increase by 46% by 2033. Like physicians, NPs are licensed to diagnose, treat, and medicate patients independently in most states. “As Nurse Practitioners gain more authority and scope, they treat a higher volume of patients, increasing the risk of malpractice claims. We’re seeing that most medical malpractice claims against NPs are related to diagnostic care, medication management, and scope of practice. Even the best providers can be named in a lawsuit, so NPS must have comprehensive coverage,” says MEDPLI CEO & Founder Max Schloemann. MEDPLI is developing a custom process for healthcare staffing companies that minimizes the burdens of application management, insurance carrier evaluation, and compliance with relevant state and federal legislation. While state laws vary widely regarding malpractice insurance requirements, MEDPLI’s CEO Schloemann notes that the strong majority of healthcare facilities require staffing agencies to supply a Certificate of Insurance for every provider regardless of state requirements. “Hospitals and medical facilities will not accept any additional liability exposure. We work with staffing agencies to assess and clarify the liability requirements for each pending contract. With that in mind, we will pursue the appropriate underwriting for each provider, present the best options, finalize coverage, and provide the Certificate of Insurance so the agency can move forward with the facility contract.” Healthcare staffing agencies looking to secure professional liability coverage for contract healthcare providers can contact a MEDPLI medical malpractice broker online at www.medpli.com or call 1-800-969-1339 for a custom quote. MEDPLI Offers Custom Medical Malpractice Insurance Solutions to Healthcare Staffing Agencies Nationwide “Partnering with PatientsLikeMe allows us to extend the reach of our genetic counseling and testing services to a broader community. We are excited to contribute to PatientsLikeMe’s vision of a holistic, patient-centered healthcare experience. Together, we can provide patients with critical genetic information that supports proactive health management and enhances their overall well-being,” said Jill Davies, CEO of Genome Medical. In addition to empowering individual patients, the combined capabilities of PatientsLikeMe and Genome Medical will also support healthcare services organizations through targeted support programs designed to improve patient outcomes. Furthermore, this partnership will enhance the services offered to life science organizations by providing advanced clinical trial matching and realworld evidence generation capabilities. Together, PatientsLikeMe and Genome Medical are committed to driving innovation in healthcare, ensuring that both patients and healthcare providers have access to the tools and insights necessary for better health management and research advancements.
6 Offering a unique and cohesive approach to aesthetics, Dr Saba Raja’s clinic – The Home of Aesthetics, based in the beating heart of Norwich – has become a well-known hub for innovative treatments and outstanding compassion. Here we learn more from Dr Saba Raja as she wins Aesthetics Practitioner of the Year 2024 (Norfolk). The aesthetics industry is rapidly evolving. It is a fast-paced industry with innovation at its core as, every year, more treatments are becoming available and popular. Dr Saba Raja ensures that she stays ahead of the curve by utilising her extensive research and trial skills before she brings anything into her clinic. She says, “My patients know that they can rely on me to do all the homework for them. When they walk into The Home of Aesthetics they can relax knowing that I don’t offer any treatments that have not been thoroughly researched and proven in terms of safety and results.” As a doctor, Dr Saba Raja prioritises patient safety and satisfaction over all else. She leads with empathy and a passion to improve her patients’ lives in the safest and most innovative ways possible. She is one of the first clinicians in Norfolk to use ultrasound technology in her clinic, and is committed to performing tailored ultrasound services which help her to vascular map her patients before administering filler. Dr Saba Raja shares, “This ensures that I’m delivering the product in a way that will not only achieve the best and most natural looking results, but minimises the risk of any of the complications we might typically see when filler is injected by an inexperienced and poorly trained practitioner. Unfortunately the lack of regulation in the aesthetic industry means cases like this are becoming more and more frequent and I’m often sought out by patients who’ve taken a risk with a cheap treatment and are seeking remedial work by an experienced, medically trained practitioner. Serious complications like vascular occlusions can be catastrophic so patient safety is always my number one priority, alongside beautiful results of course.” “My goal in the industry is simple. I have always aimed to deliver the very best aesthetic and nonsurgical treatments to my patients while ensuring the highest levels of safety and comfort and will continue to do so.” No matter what her patients are looking for, Dr Saba Raja does everything she can to empower them in all the right ways, simultaneously keeping them safe throughout the entire process. Offering complimentary consultations to all potential and existing patients, Dr Saba Raja and her clinic – The Home of Aesthetics – helps individuals to talk about their concerns, wishes, and goals without committing to a treatment first. As Dr Saba Raja is expertly trained in advanced, non-invasive cosmetic treatments, she is able to discuss at length what she can offer and what she would recommend. Furthermore, registered with the General Medical Council and ACE, as well as a member of the Royal College of General Practitioners, Dr Saba Raja is an expert in medicine. Because of this, she is also wellversed in dealing with any complications which could potentially arise. She takes every safety measure possible and knows how to handle any potential complications with speed and accuracy. Dedicating her time to medicine and beauty, which go hand in hand at her female-led aesthetic clinic, Dr Saba Raja helps people of all kinds. She believes that regardless of how much someone has matured in age, or what gender they are, everyone deserves to look and feel their best. Supporting men and women to feel more than comfortable in their own skin, she helps people to glow from within – as they truly glow on the outside too. Dr Saba Raja worked hard throughout her time studying and, after gaining her medical degree in 2003, she has continued to work hard to ensure she’s one step ahead of the industry. With a background in the NHS, postgraduate degree in General Practice, registered status with Save Face and Safety in Beauty, and experience working as a GP, Dr Saba Raja’s seasoned expertise has led her to successfully running her own clinic. For the future, Dr Saba Raja is working tirelessly to provide invaluable treatments for women experiencing the perimenopause or menopause which help women to feel confident while navigating this new period of their lives. She adds, “Menopause can seriously impact women’s self-esteem as they struggle with changes to their general appearance, body composition, skin and hair. Aesthetics can be used to rebuild self-esteem and confidence at this often challenging time, so I’m developing the services I can offer in this area to provide patients with a more cohesive approach to menopause wellness that encompasses physical health and mental wellbeing.” It’s a pleasure to present Dr Saba Raja with her title of Aesthetics Practitioner of the Year 2024 (Norfolk) and we look forward to seeing what she does next as she continues to help others with their body image, self-esteem, and overall confidence. Here’s to the years ahead for Dr Saba Raja and what she will inevitably bring to the aesthetics industry.

Gaining our clients’ trust is most important to us.” To further this commitment, LN Aesthetics is both CQC and Save Face registered, displaying its dedication to positioning patient safety and well-being at the forefront of its practice. CQC is an independent regulator of health and adult social care in England, whilst Save Face is a Professional Standards Authority accredited register that assesses a clinic’s safety measures and credentials. Being registered with both organisations tells clients that LN Aesthetics is a top-tier clinic. Not only has LN Aesthetics been recognised for its excellence by the official channels, but also its loyal clientele base. The clinic holds an impressive five-star rating for its services, with many clients attesting to the efficacy, professionalism, and personability of the clinic’s treatments. “Laura and Nikki are the two most wonderful ladies,” says Chloe. “Having treatments here not only brings a smile to my face, but the payoff is absolutely amazing. I have been coming to LN Aesthetics since it opened, and I would not go anywhere else. I trust these ladies with my face and my life.” “I have been here many times,” writes Sam. “Laura and Nikki are both knowledgeable and professional, yet so warm and welcoming. There is no way you could not be at ease in this lovely space, no matter what treatment you choose.” Moving forward, LN Aesthetics is focusing on its longevity, as well as bridging the gap between medicine and aesthetics. Currently, Nikki tells us that the clinic is in talks with an osteopath and Thriving Soul coach to develop a holistic care package. Furthermore, LN Aesthetics is aiming to purchase new machinery for the clinic in alignment with its plans of expansion.

also places a premium on collaborating with clients from the earliest stages. For example, when approached by a client with a bispecific or fusion protein with multiple binding sites, Sword Bio held detailed client discussions to generate an assay for the therapeutic, rather than trying to execute with standard assay protocols.

The seat height can also be easily adjusted which changes the centre of gravity to make the chair a more ‘active’ model. With a maximum user capacity of 120kg and a choice of side guards, colour finishes and several wheel, tyre and push rim options available, the ICON 60 can be tailored to meet the requirements of the individual. Complimenting the ICON 60 is the ICON 30 FAF (Fixed Anterior Frame) which is a very stable active wheelchair designed for various outdoor activities and is the ideal wheelchair to be used with the Track Wheel and PAWS. The Track Wheel has been designed to transform a standard manual wheelchair into an agile tricycle to enable wheelchair users to experience greater freedom. Whether the user enjoys going around town or for more adventurous days out over rougher terrain such as in the forest or on the beach, the Track Wheel is the ideal companion. By attaching the 12” Track Wheel, the wheelchair’s castors are raised which slightly tilts the chair backwards and by noticeably reducing the rolling resistance, the user can enjoy increased speed, manoeuvrability, and comfort. Weighing from only 2.6 kg and available in single arm carbon and double arm aluminium or carbon, the Track Wheel adds very little weight to the existing wheelchair and attaching the Track Wheel to the wheelchair frame requires no tools and takes a matter of seconds.

15 GHP Q4 2024 Oct24434 ccelerating the development and deployment of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) solutions to achieve real world impact is key to competitiveness across the healthcare, biopharmaceutical, and life science sectors. AI/ ML solutions hold great promise to improve patient finding, optimize patient outcomes, improve clinical trials efficiency and recruitment, achieve operational efficiencies, and enhance financial performance. To achieve these goals, they are leveraging EscrowAI®, the #1 most innovative healthcare AI platform developed by BeeKeeperAI®. EscrowAI addresses critical challenges for both the data stewards and algorithm developers, by enabling models to securely compute on protected, real-world data. The platform ensures regulatory compliance while protecting patient privacy and AI model intellectual property (IP). As a result, purchasing, security, compliance approvals and contracting are streamlined by as much as 80%, making EscrowAI an invaluable tool for organizations looking to leverage sensitive data to achieve real world impact more quickly. EscrowAI is a development, validation, and deployment monitoring platform that enables data stewards (i.e., healthcare delivery organizations) and algorithm developers (i.e., pharmaceutical and life science companies) to securely collaborate while maintaining protections for data sovereignty, individual privacy, and AI/ML model IP. EscrowAI integrates and automates privacy-enhancing technologies (PET) including Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) with confidential computing and end-to-end encryption for data and IP within a collaboration workflow. The platform has been granted seven U.S. Patents, with an additional 20 patent applications pending. As a result of BeeKeeperAI’s unique approach and impact, EscrowAI has been named the 2024 “Most Innovative Healthcare AI Platform” in the United States by Global Health & Pharma Magazine. • Real-time ML Lifecycle Collaboration Workflow & Tools: Delivers an integrated user experience and tools for data stewards and algorithm developers to perform training, validation, and monitoring at a single site or on a federated basis. • Protecting Individual Privacy More Securely WITHOUT Deidentification: With EscrowAI, AI/ML models are brought to the data steward’s environment to confidentially compute on the encrypted, personally identifiable and protected health information (PII and PHI), resulting in improved algorithm precision and real world performance in less time. The risk of re-identification or personal information and data getting into the wrong hands is eliminated with EscrowAI. • Data Type Agnostic: Any data type may be computed upon within the TEE including imaging, structured, unstructured, video, genomics, waveforms, etc. • End-to-end Encryption: Data and IP are protected with robust encryption methods (AES-256) at rest, in transit, and in use within the TEE. • Supports GPU for large complex data and AI models: Depending upon the size of the algorithm and the data set, the algorithm developer selects the optimal confidential CPU BeeKeeperAI Is Named Most Innovative Healthcare AI Platform of 2024 A and GPU virtual machine computing environment. Only pay for the compute power you need. • Security Attestations within the TEE: Only predefined, verified outputs (i.e., reports or models) are released from the TEE; outputs are checked for PHI exfiltration. • Immutable Computing Record: The data and algorithm version are tracked and reported for each computing run and stored in an immutable record of the algorithm’s development process. This record can support assessments for model drift and can also serve as a security artifact to detect any third-party tampering with the algorithm or data. • Regulatory Compliant: Provides protections for data sovereignty and individual privacy for the US, Canda, and EU. “We are tremendously honored by this recognition. Since we spun-out from UCSF, our mission at BeeKeeperAI has been to improve health and healthcare worldwide by accelerating the development and deployment of trustworthy, reliable, responsible AI. We recognized that secure access to protected, real-world data would be key to that goal which led to the development of our EscrowAI platform. Leveraging the latest privacy-enhancing technologies, we have built and deployed a platform that dramatically reduces the time and cost for a pharmaceutical or life sciences company to securely compute on sensitive patient data (including PII and PHI) while also protecting the IP in their model. Companies can now develop, validate, and deploy AI in a few months, not years,” said Dr. Michael Blum, MD, Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at BeeKeeperAI. “The current default method for protecting patient privacy is data de-identification. While it can be used for early-stage AI development, de-identification doesn’t allow an AI developer to demonstrate real world performance, nor does it truly protect sensitive patient data. The combination of our privacy-enhancing capabilities has advanced EscrowAI beyond anything else available in the marketplace today. Leveraging TEEs with confidential computing and end-to-end encryption ensures data privacy, sovereignty, and intellectual property protection and dramatically accelerates time to market for AI/ML solutions. No other approach – not even federated learning – can come close to the protections and data type and model flexibility EscrowAI provides without compromising usability and security,” Dr. Blum added. EscrowAI is available in the Azure Marketplace or directly from BeeKeeperAI.
