Hello everyone,

I am excited to share some recent healthcare news with you. AHCC has strengthened their cancer care program with the Patient Advisor program, which focuses on building trust, explaining procedures, and following up on therapy. In another development, the digital migraine treatment devices market is projected to reach $298.7 million by 2030, with hospitals being the leading end-users. Macquarie University Health has adopted an automation platform for patient records, supporting real-time search, batch uploads, and a searchable repository.

Christchurch Hospital has completed an upgrade to its cardiac cath lab, including the addition of a newly built third laboratory. India has approved the expansion of medical education capacity, adding about 5,000 postgraduate seats. Fortis Hospital has launched a Pediatric Intensive Care Unit in Greater Noida, featuring ECMO support and critical haemodialysis. NHG Health has signed an MoU with AIA Singapore to support programs aimed at improving population health, while Cardinal Santos has unveiled a brain and spine masterclass in partnership with Medtronic.

Moving on to other news, the latest issue of Happiful Magazine is out, featuring articles on women’s circles, menopause insomnia, and myths about burnout. The magazine also includes exclusive journaling pages and a brain-teasing puzzle. In the realm of policy, the government shutdown has led to the announcement of the first ‘most-favored nation’ deal by President Trump, which involves Pfizer offering lower prices on drugs to the Medicaid program and in direct-to-consumer sales for uninsured patients.

As we continue to navigate through these developments, it is important to stay informed and optimistic about the future of healthcare. Let’s keep supporting each other and looking forward to positive changes in the industry.

Stay healthy and happy,

Summy

Stay Well!
