Revolutionizing Healthcare Delivery for Mothers and Children
NCCS Telehealth Project
PROJECT BACKGROUND
The National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS) Telehealth Project was developed to gain insights from participants regarding telehealth experience in oncology.
A diverse group of 29 participants, which included cancer patients or survivors, were recruited to participate in six focus groups, conducted in May and June 2020. A total of 31 providers also participated by providing feedback in August 2020 regarding areas of agreement or disagreement with patient responses.
Project Executive Summary
A summary of the feedback from cancer patients and survivors, including the themes from focus groups, pros and cons for telehealth visits, barriers to telehealth, and planning for the future of telehealth visits.
For Patients: Tip Sheet for Telehealth Visits (English and Spanish)
A resource for cancer patients and survivors providing advice for scheduling a telehealth visit, completing a technology check, preparing for the telehealth visit, ending the visit and identifying next steps, and providing feedback about the telehealth visit.
For Providers: Cancer Patient Insights Telehealth Recommendations
A resource for oncology clinicians including top-line insights from cancer patients and survivors about their use of telehealth, patient views on the types of visits that are acceptable for telehealth, patient feedback, and recommendations for clinicians.
Maternal and Child Health Telehealth
Introduction to telehealth for maternal health services
Maternal health care is critical for the long-term health and success of parents and children. Health equity in maternal care has long been a struggle, especially for those in rural and underserved communities. Telehealth is one way to bridge those gaps.
This guide will highlight the needs and procedures for a successful maternal telehealth program.
The United States offers some of the most advanced medical technologies in the world. But our maternal morbidity rate still lags far behind other high-income countries.
The current maternal mortality rate is 17.4 deaths per 100,000 live births, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And Black mothers are 2.5 times more likely to die from pregnancy or childbirth causes than white women. Overall, more than 65 percent of pregnancy-related deaths are preventable.
Additionally, pregnant patients are at higher risk of maternal mortality from COVID-19 infection during pregnancy. Complications associated with a COVID-19 infection during pregnancy include: more severe forms of COVID-19, pre-term birth, and transmission of COVID-19 to newborns.
he NHF team of MDs and PhDs has reviewed the research and developed the empirically-based Healthy Pregnancy Summit, The Healthy Child Guide and companion program . to help you before and during pregnancy to have a healthier child.
Interested in learning more about the scientific evidence that backs up the recommendations from the Healthy Pregnancy Summit and in The Healthy Child Guide? Check out The Science Behind the Healthy Child Guide. Authored by the NHF Scientific Advisory Board, this white paper presents over 150 research studies on how to maximize the probability of having a healthy child free of chronic neurological health disorders.
