Kaia Health unveils complete musculoskeletal care solution with Kaia Gateway and Premium Partners

Kaia Health

Digital therapeutic company, Kaia Health, unveils the next-generation, complete musculoskeletal (MSK) care solution for employers and health plans. Kaia Gateway will include a case review service and clinical triage algorithms, while Kaia Premium Partners will provide native interoperability with select providers - all within Kaia’s existing solution. The new treatment concept is based on what Kaia has already evaluated in the industry’s largest randomized controlled trial (RCT). Kaia’s next generation offering also expands support to chronic, acute, and presurgery care for back, neck, hip, knee, shoulder, hand/wrist, and foot/ankle pain. All this is backed by Kaia’s claims-based 2:1 ROI guarantee. Up until today, Kaia Health’s digital MSK program has treated 450,000 patients with evidence-based care. Kaia Health’s MSK app features patented Motion Coach™ computer vision technology, which tracks the body by measuring thousands of data points every minute during exercising and a functional movement test. It provides ongoing support and real-time, automated PT-grade exercise feedback, creating a more personalized, effective, and engaging experience than sensor straps or tele-PT video calls once per month. Introducing the all-new Kaia Gateway Accessed via Kaia Health’s existing digital MSK program, Kaia Gateway will be the new front door for all MSK patients. Each will be screened using a clinical triage algorithm, which analyzes various clinical dimensions to identify patients at risk of needing more invasive or intense treatment. Those with medical issues, or likely to elect into surgery, will be directed to a Kaia Health medical provider for further consultation. An AI-enabled escalation algorithm will monitor patients longitudinally for clinical and behavioral patterns that might warrant an intervention by a Kaia Health medical professional or health coach. Integrating a case review service will reduce costs, as the likelihood of unnecessary elective surgery varies drastically depending on whom patients speak with first¹. “Kaia Gateway creates an unprecedented level of understanding of MSK patients and their progression,” says Justin Yang, Kaia Health’s U.S. Chief Medical Officer. “The algorithms now include Motion Coach™ data in addition to self-reported and adherence data. The Motion Coach™ insights thus now drive our clinical decision making in addition to patient engagement. This richer dataset will offer a more informed user case review and allow Kaia Gateway to make better patient choices in the treatment app or via one of our partners.” Introducing Premium Partners Already today, Kaia Health coaches refer out to other medical services in an employer or health plan’s ecosystem using pathways configured during implementation. Premium Partners will take this one stage further and set a new precedent for employee benefits interoperability by offering the most sophisticated integration option available in the MSK market. Premium Partners will have access to detailed treatment history including insights from Motion Coach™, disease progression, exercise level information, and medical surveys. Kaia has already built out bi-directional referrals and warm transfers, single sign-on capability, incentive program integrations and automated data exchange APIs with first Premium Partners. Additional Premium Partners offerings include other evaluated general and specialty care solutions, such as digital interventions, disease management programs, PT, telemedicine, care navigation, and expert medical opinion services. “Kaia Health is the next-generation MSK solution to integrate with the existing care landscape, one that addresses MSK cases across an expanded MSK care spectrum,” says Jonas Duss, Kaia Health’s U.S. CEO. “Our goal is to create a happier, healthier and less-costly workforce together with our Premium Partners.” Kaia Health has among the industry’s most robust clinical evidence with the largest published randomized control trial [ source ], and a rigorous claims-based ROI methodology [ source ]. In a recent regional health system deployment, Kaia Health’s MSK app use resulted in a 22% medical claims net cost saving and a 50% decrease in MSK pain level. For employers, Kaia Health’s MSK app has demonstrated a more than 20% decrease in medical spend with a 1.6x - 3x average ROI in the first year [ source ]. MSK conditions affect 126.6 million Americans², which results in annual costs to U.S. employers of $120 billion ³. MSK conditions cost businesses an average of $425 per employee per year⁴ in medical bills, affect 25% of their workforce and account for 16% of overall medical spend. Most of Kaia’s next generation solution will be available starting Q3 2021 with Kaia Gateway (Case Review service, Triage & Escalation algorithms, and expanded joint coverage). Premium Partners will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. The preventative program will conclude the rollout on January 1, 2022.

Jack Panzer and Minuteman Press International Help Independent Printers Sell Their Printing Business

Minuteman Press International Inc

Minuteman Press International, the world’s leading design, marketing, and printing franchise, is continuing to expand its Minuteman Press Franchise Conversion Program. The program assists independent printers with selling their printing business at no cost and no broker fees to them. “We don’t charge anything to sellers. We take on the advertising costs and we provide 45 years of printing industry experience in evaluating their business as well as helping them prepare for the sale. What we get in return is simply another Minuteman Press or International Minute Press location that we’ll help the buyer build and grow,” says Jack Panzer, Minuteman Press International Regional Vice President, Arizona, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, and Wyoming Region (Minuteman Press International operates as International Minute Press in Arizona). There is high demand for printing today, as Jack says, “Local businesses are vital to the American economy. Every business needs and uses the products and services that we offer. My job is to help evaluate and sell businesses where both the seller and the buyer are happy with their decision.” When is it a good time to sell a printing business? Jack answers, “The second you think about selling is the right time because there’s no guarantee as to how long it will take. I have sold printing businesses in 30 days, in six months, in one year, in two years. It really has to do with the buyer, the timing, and making sure the groundwork is laid to execute the sale.” How does it work and what does the owner need to sell? In his experience, Jack says the biggest thing is to keep it simple. “Let’s have a face to face meeting and get to know each other. We can talk and see if we are comfortable with each other, then make sure the business fits our model. We want this to be mutually beneficial. Let’s see what you’re looking for and what we’re looking for and find out if it matches up.” Jack adds, “There is no pressure and we are simply here to help. I will work with you to assess the business. If we can agree to work together, all I need is three years of financials. Through due diligence on our end, we are able to evaluate the business and suggest a fair market price.” He continues, “We are experts in the printing industry for 45 years. It’s not just about the P&Ls. It’s about the value of the business, the ties to the community, and the staff involvement. When we sell your printing business, we are able to train the buyer and offer more products and services. You don’t have to worry about long-term training or a prolonged transition because we train and support the buyer.” “When sellers sign up with us, there are no surprises, there are no fees, and it’s a very transparent process. They can also see the track record that Minuteman Press has as printing industry leaders for 45 years. We are not going anywhere.” – Jack Panzer What issues and concerns do independent printers run into when selling? According to Jack, “One of the biggest issues printers run into when selling is when they deal with a business broker who doesn’t follow through or have the printing industry experience needed to sell the business properly.” He adds, “Where we differ is that we have the printing experience and we want to sell the business in a timely manner. We are experts at selling print or print-like businesses and we know what it takes to evaluate and sell the business.” Another big difference is that Minuteman Press is able to attract a wider pool of buyers. Jack explains, “We build personal relationships with our owners, we support the buyer throughout the life of their business, and we have a vested interest in their success. We don’t just make the sale, shake their hands, and say good luck.” The sellers also raise concerns about their customers and what will happen to them. “They want to know their legacy is going to continue. We make sure there is a smooth transition so that the clients know they are in good hands with the new owner.” Another issue that comes up is financing the sale. “Minuteman Press has financing options available for buyers that may help facilitate the sale, which is another burden lifted from the seller.” Keeping it Simple Ultimately, Jack Panzer and the team at Minuteman Press International offer an effective and transparent way for independent printers to sell their printing business at no cost and no broker fees to them. Jack’s approach is to keep it simple, stay proactive, and keep in touch. “One thing I always promise is that I will communicate with you throughout this process and I’m confident I will sell your printing business.” For more information on the Minuteman Press Franchise Conversion Program, visit https://bit.ly/minutemanpressconversions or call 1-800-645-3006.

2021 Will Be the Year of Meaningful Travel

YourUpdateTV

Airbnb released a new report and highlighted how 2021 will see a shift toward more meaningful travel as the pandemic continues to limit mass tourism and afflict the industry overall. When travel returns in 2021, it will be about connecting with loved ones through more personal trips, with mass tourism unlikely to return at any scale this year. Recently, Director of International Communications at Airbnb, Cassidy Blackwell, teamed with YourUpdateTV on a satellite media tour to discuss this trend and much more. A video accompanying this announcement is available at: https://youtu.be/f00q-568WXw In the report, US consumers say their near-term travel priority is to spend time with family and friends in comfortable, familiar and secure settings. Here are some additional findings from the report: Travel for pleasure is the out-of-home activity Americans have missed the most—over going to restaurants and bars, and attending sporting and other live events. A majority is ready to travel again: 54% have either already booked, are currently planning to travel, or expect to travel in 2021. This includes 57% of 18- to 29-year-olds, and 60% of 30- to 49-year-olds. The type of travel people have missed the most is visiting with family and friends. Business travel is the type of travel they have missed the least. Connecting with family and friends is also the type of travel that has grown most in importance as people look to travel after the pandemic: 41% say such travel has become “much more” important to them, almost twice the percentage who cite travel to accomplish personal goals (22%). Affordability is the top priority overall when it comes to choosing accommodation not just for the first trip but for future travel indefinitely (54%), beating health and safety protocols by 10 points. Nearly three in five Americans (58%) earning less than $50,000 per year say they are booked, planning or expecting to travel in 2021. Based on ongoing Airbnb guest survey data, a majority of guests—including 53% of all homes guests in 2019—tell us they choose Airbnb to save money while traveling. 56% of those under age 50 say they would be “much” or “somewhat more likely” to use an online platform which offers the ability to search for alternate energy and green accommodations. Only 28% of those aged 50+ say the same.

WorkAway IT is leveraging the Comodo Dragon Platform and Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP) to provide market-leading cybersecurity to its small business customers, while simultaneously reducing their costs. “A significant percentage of our client base are small businesses with fewer than 20 users, and do not have an active directory or office365. To provide remote management of machines, we needed a tool which is low cost, and enables us to perform routine maintenance tasks, generate reports, provide endpoint protection, and enable us to have visibility into any issues that our customers may be facing on their machines.” Said Brady Cusack, Managing Partner. WorkAway IT are using the Dragon Platform and Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection from Comodo.

The Dragon Platform also utilizes a Default Deny security posture with Default Allow usability to provide a most comprehensive protection against zero-day threats, while having no impact on end-user experience or workflows. Brady explains some of the key benefits they see by working with Comodo Dragon Platform: “With Comodo, we can provide our customers with a high standard of service, without the hefty price tag that is associated with other platforms (e.g., Microsoft 365 E3/E5). We can perform the maintenance that we would typically use Microsoft for, provide security, a firewall, and detailed reporting that enables us to identify issues before they happen.” About WorkAway IT WorkAway IT offers solutions that allow businesses to operate anywhere, whether remote or local, more efficiently.

CORRECT AND REPLACE Stradling Chooses OnePlace Marketing & Business Development from Intapp as its All-in-One Business Development and CRM Solution

Intapp

Intapp, the leader in connected firm management solutions for professional and financial services firms, announced that the business law firm Stradling Yocca Carlson & Rauth (Stradling) has selected OnePlace Marketing & Business Development — a connected client lifecycle management suite — to power, organize, and manage the firm’s business development and communications efforts. Stradling, based in Newport Beach, California, employs more than 100 lawyers across 10 offices in California, Colorado, Nevada, and Washington. Founded in 1975 to serve Southern California’s emerging growth companies, Stradling works with public and private companies across the western United States to provide innovative solutions for securities, finance, private equity, M&A, litigation, and public finance needs. The firm’s high profile financing work led Stradling to be recognized among the Top 25 Most Active Law Firms in VC Deals in 2020. The move to OnePlace Marketing & Business Development will give Stradling’s marketing team the ease of a single interface from which to support current and future business development initiatives, reach various audiences in highly targeted communications, and centralize data among the separate office locations. “With Intapp OnePlace, we’re ensuring our business development will be future-proofed,” said Robin Gerard, Chief Marketing Officer at Stradling. “In order to do our best work today and grow the firm for tomorrow, we need to reach the right people in the right way and with the right message. Intapp gives us the power to do that now and down the line.” “Given the current work-from-home world we live in, firms face an even greater need to drive collaboration and engagement with and between clients and colleagues,” said Lavinia Calvert, General Manager for Marketing & Business Development Solutions at Intapp. “Robin and the team at Stradling recognize that having the ability to consolidate and manage the firm’s experience data, relationships intelligence, communications, and marketing programs on in one place has become absolutely mission-critical. We’re thrilled to welcome Stradling to our growing family of Intapp OnePlace clients.” Stradling is expected to complete its OnePlace Marketing & Business Development implementation in March, aided by ClientsFirst Consulting.
