In a recent @latimes op-ed, Dr. @HashemZikry, Medical Director at Counsel Health, explores the revolutionary potential of AI in delivering life-changing care at scale, and calls for serious, enforceable regulations to safely deploy this technology.

Thanks @julesyoo— a good example, I hope, of your abundance philosophy in action in healthcare
"50 competing standards cannot be the answer for a technology this consequential... many assume that regulation slows down transformative technology, but history suggests otherwise." Great piece by @HashemZikry calling for consistent regulatory guidance to **improve**, not impede, the solving of our nation's patient access crisis with AI care. latimes.com/opinion/story/20…

Important in outlining a vision for what the relationship of EM and this care model can look like. It also dives into the murky space of capacity and the role of Hospital at Home in ED boarding as well as the implications for the specialty on the whole. @UCLAEMRes @NCSP_UCLA

🚨EDs are critical for persons living with dementia (PLWD). Could EDs be integrated into the CMS GUIDE Model to improve dementia care? Learn more in a new @Health_Affairs article by @HashemZikry @SMDresdenMD @rgupta729 and Ari Friedman : bit.ly/4j83UUa 🧵 (1/8)

Excited to share this work with a great team looking at how to leverage the role of the Emergency Department in CMS’s new alternative payment model, GUIDE. @rgupta729 @NCSP_UCLA @SMDresdenMD @UCLAHealth @DOM_UCLA
In their new Forefront article, @HashemZikry, Ari Friedman, @SMDresdenMD, + Ravi Gupta from @UCLA, @PennMedicine, @NorthwesternU, + @JohnsHopkins discuss how, consistent with the approach taken by other alternative payment models, GUIDE frames the emergency department as a negative outcome to be avoided. In doing so, the authors argue, GUIDE ignores the reality on the ground for people living with dementia and overlooks opportunities for improved care through integration. healthaffairs.org/do/10.1377…

New research from current @NCSP_UCLA fellow @HashemZikry shows adoption of “hospital-at-home” programs are mostly large, urban, non-profit, and academic. Smaller, rural, and non-teaching hospitals may need different incentives to participate. jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Thrilled to be published in @JAMA_current with David Schriger and Austin Kilaru @AustinKilaru on the landscape of Hospital at Home adoption across US
Participation in the Acute Hospital Care at Home (AHCAH) waiver program has predominantly involved large, urban, not-for-profit, and academic hospitals, with postextension participants being somewhat smaller and showing regional differences. ja.ma/3BJsMRs
