The aging of the population and the increase in chronic diseases are overloading our healthcare system, with complex patients requiring more care. To meet their needs and keep them at home, interprofessional team management is necessary. The Directorate of Health of the Canton of Geneva issued a call for tenders to set up Medical Homes. We responded, were selected and have been building its various components over the past two years: identification of complex patients, setting up coordinated teams, the shared care plan, coordination with the medical assistant and the financing system. The preliminary results show its success, yet specific project management skills and financial resources are needed.

Purpose: The value of genetic information for improving the performance of clinical risk prediction models has yielded variable conclusions. Many methodological decisions have the potential to contribute to differential results. We performed multiple modeling experiments integrating clinical and demographic data from electronic health records (EHR) with genetic data to understand which decisions may affect performance.

February 2025

Initiative for Slow Medicine, Berkeley, California, USA.

Appropriate patient reassurance is an essential feature of clinical practice. My recent experience as a patient, interpreted via my expertise as a health services researcher, led me to insights on ideal and suboptimal reassurance styles in the context of worrisome symptoms. Reassurance is complex: often poorly defined in the scientific literature, rarely rigorously studied, imperfectly understood, and requiring some adaptation to each patient situation.

Background: Head and neck cancer (HNC) is amongst the 10 most common cancers worldwide and has a major effect on patients' quality of life. Given the complexity of this unique group of patients, a multidisciplinary team approach is preferable. Amongst the debilitating sequels of HNC and/or its treatment, swallowing, speech and voice impairments are prevalent and require the involvement of speech-language pathologists (SLPs).
