Whitepaper: A New Era in Diabetes Management

A person living with diabetes may see providers across endocrinology, primary care, cardiology and bariatrics, yet continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data is often not easily available to the full care team.

This guide shows how health systems can build a more connected, scalable approach to CGM management by making data more actionable inside the clinical workflow.

As CGM adoption grows, health systems have a chance to move from episodic review toward more continuous, team-based diabetes management. But success depends on more than device access. It requires workflows that support data visibility, clinical decision-making and financial sustainability.

This resource reviews the CGM landscape, outlines common workflow challenges and highlights opportunities to support enterprise CGM management across settings. It also examines how organizations can align CGM programs with value-based care, Remote Patient Monitoring and Chronic Care Management strategies.

Key takeaways:

  • How to make CGM data actionable within the EHR workflow,
  • How one regional health system approaches CGM management across care settings,
  • Which reimbursement models can support long-term scale, and
  • Why enterprise CGM strategies matter for chronic disease management.

Whitepaper: Agentic AI in Healthcare: The Transformational Impact & How to Prepare

Traditional automation has improved efficiency, but it remains limited by static rules and predefined workflows.

As operational complexity increases, leaders are expected to make faster, more accurate decisions across revenue cycle, care delivery and population health – often without the real-time insights required to do so. Manual exception handling, delayed claims processing and fragmented data continue to strain both provider and payer organizations.

Agentic AI introduces a different model.

By operating autonomously within defined processes, learning from new information and adapting to changing conditions, agentic AI extends beyond conventional RPA and generative AI. It can analyze large datasets, identify patterns and guide evidence-based strategies across departments.

However, successful implementation requires careful attention to data security, transparency, workforce readiness and governance structures.

This report outlines how healthcare leaders can move from experimentation to structured adoption.

Key takeaways include:

  • The defining characteristics that differentiate agentic AI from traditional AI from traditional AI and automation,
  • Real-world provider and payer applications that improve operational and financial performance,
  • Risks leaders must address, including security, oversight and workforce training, and
  • A step-by-step preparation roadmap, from pilots to enterprise integration.

Prevalence of Selected Chronic Conditions Among Adults Age 45 and Older, by Age and Urbanization Level: United States, 2024

Heart disease, cancer, cerebrovascular diseases (stroke), and chronic lower respiratory diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), are consistently among the 10 leading causes of death for U.S. adults. Studies have suggested that variations exist in the prevalence of these conditions by age and urbanization level, prompting further exploration into these differences. This report uses 2024 National Health Interview Survey (NHIS) data to describe the prevalence of heart disease, cancer, COPD, and stroke among adults age 45 and older by age and urbanization level

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provide data on the prevalence of heart disease, cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and stroke among adults age 45 and older by level of rurality, using data from the CDC’s 2024 National Health Interview Survey.

Whitepaper: From Noise to Clarity: A Smarter Approach to Patient Communication and Payments

Imagine a patient who receives one clear message at each critical step of care – scheduling, check-in, results, billing and payment – with no confusion about what comes next.

Now contrast that with today’s reality: fragmented reminders, unclear bills and multiple senders competing for attention. In one recent survey, 70% of patients said they tune out frequent healthcare messages.

This report outlines a different approach: orchestrated, journey-based communication that connects clinical, operational and financial touchpoints into a single, coordinated conversation. It also explores how digitized payment solutions can process adjudicated payments quickly and disburse funds to physicians significantly faster than legacy systems.

Learnings include:

  • How to align outreach with each stage of the patient journey,
  • Why billing transparency is essential in a high cost-sharing environment,
  • Strategies to optimize payment preferences and installment plans, and
  • How small, targeted improvements can show value quickly.

Whitepaper: Reactive Insulin Protocols are Exposing Hospitals to Avoidable CMS and Quality Risk

Sliding scale insulin was designed for simplicity – not for today’s regulatory and clinical demands.

Hospitals that continue to rely on SSI face well-documented challenges: higher mean blood glucose levels, increased glycemic variability, longer lengths of stay and inconsistent results across care teams. The American Diabetes Association Standards of Care in Diabetes 2024 advises against using sliding scale insulin as the sole method of inpatient insulin therapy.

Now the risk extends beyond clinical variability.

This year, CMS began requiring hospitals to report severe hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia through eCQMs under the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting Program. Reactive protocols that allow preventable glucose excursions may increase scrutiny and downstream financial and reputational consequences.

This report details how hospitals can move toward patient-specific insulin dosing supported by standardized protocols, multidisciplinary oversight and integrated clinical decision support.

Learnings from this report include:

  • The evidence linking SSI to preventable glycemic events and longer stays,
  • How Temple Health eliminated SSI as standard practice and improved care quality,
  • The hidden staffing and financial costs of reactive insulin management, and
  • Structured approaches hospitals are using to phase out SSI.

Whitepaper: Quiet at Night: A New Path to Calmer, More Restful Hospital Nights

How addressing unnecessary device alarms and managing them away from the bedside can help patients heal and nurses focus.

Hospital noise levels have skyrocketed since the 1960s, turning patient rooms – especially at night – into spaces of fragmented sleep and stress. Much of the noise comes from medical device alarms that were designed to support safety but can interrupt patient recovery and overwhelm clinicians.

This paper explores how hospital leaders can restore rest and focus by tackling noise and alarm fatigue at their source – combining workflow, culture and technology to address unnecessary alerts and route meaningful ones to the right clinicians.

Inside, you’ll learn:

  • What has caused hospitals to become so noisy – and what to do about it, including adjusting workflows and making environmental updates,
  • Practical ways to manage alarm load through smarter configurations,
  • How the new SDC interoperability standard for medical devices enables alarm receipt and response away from the bedside, and
  • Lessons from Cincinnati Children’s which successfully silenced in-room monitors on med-surg units, and insights on ICU alarm culture from Grady Health System.

Whitepaper: The Hidden Cost of the Status Quo: Why Healthcare Safety is the Defining Strategic Imperative for 2026

When clinicians worry about their safety, the impact reaches far beyond a single incident. Confidence drops, reporting suffers, turnover rises and operational strain spreads across the organization.

This healthcare safety report shows why best-in-class hospitals are treating safety as a strategic priority. It connects worker safety to workforce retention, trust and operational performance, giving leaders a clearer view of what is driving risk and what can improve outcomes.

The findings are drawn from an online survey of 1,014 healthcare employees across clinical, operational and executive roles. The results are hard to ignore – Nearly 85% of survey respondents have personally experienced a safety incident during their careers. More than 20% (1 in 5) have been involved in incidents that escalated to physical violence, and 76% of healthcare workers consider personal safety a daily concern.

One system that adopted connected safety technology saw violent incidents decline by 30% within six months, while incident reporting increased by 50%.

For leaders focused on sustaining care delivery, this report offers a practical look at how proactive safety programs can support both staff protection and organizational performance.

Download the report to learn:

  • How safety affects retention, trust and operational resilience,
  • What front-line trends reveal about workplace violence today,
  • Where proactive safety programs are driving measurable change, and
  • Why reporting culture matters for long-term improvement.
