ADHD Online Leaders Address Hidden Issue of Entrepreneurs’ Common Mental Health Challenges

CEO Zach Booker also praises Midwest as haven for startups

In two events at the recent SXSW Conference, ADHD Online, the leader in online ADHD testing and assessment, outlined the reasons for its exponential growth and addressed the unspoken prevalence of mental health issues for entrepreneurs.

"ADHD Online is based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, far from the entrepreneurial hotbeds of the U.S. coasts. But the Midwest is a powerhouse of talent, with unique opportunities, and ADHD Online leveraged the region's advantages," CEO Zach Booker told the crowd at the "Scaling in the Midwest" panel. "That allowed the company to grow to serve patients in all 50 states in just one year," Booker said.  

"Central to that success was the company's philosophy and structure, which allowed it to 'plug and play' a system that delivers and maintains a high standard of care for treating mental health patients in the same way regardless of where they live," Booker said.  

At the "Mental Health and Entrepreneurs" panel, Keith Brophy, ADHD Online's chief operating officer, outlined the increasing prevalence of mental health issues in the United States and among entrepreneurs in particular. According to the Centers for Disease Control, one in five Americans will experience a mental illness in a given year, while one in 25 lives with a serious mental illness.  

"Among the factors that can contribute to mental illness are adverse life experiences, substance abuse, trauma, loneliness and isolation - with the latter two being common problems among entrepreneurs as they create and launch their ventures," Brophy said, citing a number of studies. 

Entrepreneur Online reports found that one in four entrepreneurs will experience mental illness of some kind, with anxiety and depression the most common issues. A recent study found that 72% of entrepreneurs had mental health problems. And statistics from the National Institute for Mental Health show that entrepreneurs have depression at twice the rate of the general population, six times the rate of ADHD, three times the rate of bipolar disorder, and twice the rate of addiction. 

"Our panel really set the stage for entrepreneurs to be open in discussing their mental health and not hiding behind the mystique of entrepreneurs and leaders, where they can't be authentic about their mental health," Brophy said.  

"The mental health of entrepreneurs is overlooked, or even swept under the rug," Booker agreed. "There's an assumption that people have that entrepreneurs must be good at everything since they're in business for themselves. And the 'fake it until you make it' phenomenon means many entrepreneurs can't be honest about their struggles."

TCM Dashboard at Coordinators' Fingertips

TCM programs can use ADT feeds to populate transitions of care to better serve their patients.

CrossTx, a leading care management cloud-based technology company serving Rural Health Clinics, Federally Qualified Health Centers and physician-owned clinics with C3HIE, a leading Texas-based health information exchange (HIE) in 129 Texas counties, announce exciting new functionality to a long-standing partnership. This novel approach utilizes the C3HIE Admission, Discharge, and Transfer (ADT) data-feed to support comprehensive Transitional Care Management (TCM) programs across Texas. The new functionality includes a comprehensive dashboard that auto populates discharged patient information from surrounding hospitals which provide a step-by-step transitional care workflow. Throughout the transition process, the software generates a patient specific report and patient population report, complete with audit trails. This collaborative service offering ensures proper care coordination tracking for TCM codes 99496 and 99495, supports ACO shared savings programs, and other quality-based initiatives.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) TCM program helps improve patient outcomes in the transition from an inpatient or partial inpatient setting to community location. With the ADT data-feed from C3HIE, discharged patients are identifiable as well as filtered to focus on eligible Medicare Beneficiaries deemed at risk for readmission or other adverse events following hospitalization. C3HIE's data provides real-time information on patient discharge status. This data, when placed into CrossTx, supports patient progress while facilitating specific steps in the TCM program including 30 days of care coordination, any necessary adjustments to the care plan, provider chart and discharge review, medicine reconciliation, care coordinator chart and discharge review, documentation of the interactive call, and completed follow up visit within 7 or 14 days after discharge.

"We are excited to expand our partnership with C3HIE to develop a TCM program that improves patient outcomes and reduces healthcare costs," said Chad Nybo, CEO of CrossTx. "By utilizing the ADT data-feed from C3HIE, our TCM cloud-based service populates eligible patients, in real-time. Our client's care coordinators can now provide them with the support they need to transition from hospital to home smoothly."

C3HIE's ADT data-feed provides timely and accurate information on patient admissions, discharges, and transfers, making it an essential tool for care coordination. "We are thrilled to work with CrossTx to develop a TCM program that leverages our ADT data-feed to improve patient outcomes and reduce readmissions," said Jim Hoag, COO of C3HIE. "This integrated partnership leverages our provider connections in the HIE ecosystem giving providers revenue-generating tools to improve outcomes for less cost."

C3HIE and CrossTx have collaborated now for several years to support clinics, community health centers, and other healthcare facilities to develop Chronic Care Management (CCM) programs. CCM programs are designed to support patients with chronic conditions between visits with their provider. TCM programs can increase the enrollment of patients in CCM programs and thereby optimize patient outcomes, reducing costs, and addressing gaps in care within the community. The TCM dashboard would not be complete without a section dedicated to encouraging TCM patients to enroll in the facility's CCM program for long-term improvement.

About CrossTx: CrossTx is a healthcare technology company that is dedicated to improving the healthcare experience for patients and providers alike. With a focus on innovation and user-centered design, CrossTx develops care coordination solutions that make CMS programs such as Chronic Care Management and Transitional Care Management more efficient, accessible, and effective. www.crosstx.com

About C3HIE: C3HIE is a Texas-based, multi-region collaboration building the safe and secure infrastructure between healthcare providers' electronic health records (EHRs) making it possible to exchange information across different platforms. C3HIE offers customized health data sharing and analytics solutions aimed at hospitals, providers, health plans and patients that include real-time alerts, historical and predictive analytics, a longitudinal patient health record and community resource collaboration. http://www.C3HIE.org

Curiteva Announces First Surgeries Performed With Novel 3D Printed Porous HA PEEK Technology

Curiteva pioneered and received clearance of the world's first 3D printed, fully interconnected porous PEEK structure, utilizing internally developed Fused Filament Fabrication.

Huntsville, AL based technology company, Curiteva announced a limited commercial release utilizing its recently FDA-cleared Inspire Porous PEEK HAFUSE Cervical Interbody System. Curiteva pioneered and received clearance of the world's first 3D printed, fully interconnected porous PEEK structure, utilizing internally developed Fused Filament Fabrication.

The Inspire platform is manufactured utilizing the Evonik VESTAKEEP® i4 3DF PEEK high-performance polymer on a proprietary, patented 3D printer designed, programmed, and built by Curiteva.

Alex Vaccaro, MD, PhD, president of Philadelphia-based Rothman Orthopedic Institute shared, "I believe structure drives biology and the lattice PEEK architecture enabled by Curiteva's 3D printing process represents an exciting advancement in spine, orthopedics, and neurosurgical procedures which involve any type of biologic implant."

Kevin Foley, MD, Chairman of Semmes-Murphey Neurologic and Spine Institute and professor of neurosurgery, orthopedic surgery and biomedical engineering at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center stated, "The Inspire porous PEEK technology checks all of the boxes for an ideal interbody implant: fully interconnected porosity, modulus of elasticity equivalent to cancellous bone, strong biomechanical properties, radiolucency, and a bioactive surface for osseointegration."

Randy Dryer, MD, Central Texas Spine Institute commented, "Interconnected porosity, pore size distribution, and nano-surface architecture are typically hallmarks of the most effective synthetic allografts. I believe this novel implant enhanced with HAFUSE nano-surface topography incorporates those features and presents an optimal environment for osteoprogenitor cells to move throughout the implant enhancing bone healing (fusion) and reducing risk of subsidence. I'm excited to offer this to my patients."

"This new technology further demonstrates Curiteva's commitment to developing and investing in disruptive technologies," said Todd Reith, Inventor and Vice President of Emerging Technology. "Our unique architecture is the result of years of research and development in 3D printing. As this technology matures, with our internal expertise, we have already contemplated other applications outside of spine and orthopedics." The company plans a full commercial launch in the United States later this year. 

About Curiteva:

Curiteva is a privately held technology and manufacturing company dedicated to advancing spine surgery and improving clinical outcomes by partnering with providers and suppliers to deliver innovative and intuitive implant systems to the market. Our business is founded on a commitment to building world-class manufacturing, accelerating research and development, maintaining lean operational discipline, and delivering novel technology to meet the evolving needs of our customers and the patients they serve.
