“Cherish the time you have with your loved ones with serious illness.” Thank you to the essential workers, especially the chaplains and social workers who have held space not only for people and families but also for the providers caring for them. #CTACSummit20

What about Medicaid? Looking forward to seeing what advancements Hawaii can bring to developing community based palliative care benefits. @NASHPhealth is building tools to help states now! #advancedcaretech

We need to make substantial reforms in Medicare, especially to reimburse direct care workers. Otherwise, we won’t make a dent in the possibilities that these services can offer. #advancedcaretech

We force people into choices because of policy that ends up being payment policy. There is evidence out there; we need to look at what works at the right time and at the right level. #advancedcaretech

We don’t have the technological solutions to follow patients and know when their goals and wishes change. Advance directives cannot be the end all-be all @ravi_b_parikh #advancedcaretech @CTACorg @PetrieFlom

Payment reform is absolutely necessary, Susan Ponder-Stansel says. Payment motivates behavior, it instigates action, she adds. But we also need better standards for the kind of care patients should receive. #AdvancedCareTech

The advent of home infusion technology has been another huge development, @ravi_b_parikh says. Patients can now remain at home while they receive chemotherapy. #AdvancedCareTech
