SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Maya Jerath\, "Alpha-Gal Allergy Update"
DESCRIPTION:Dr. Jerath has a special interest in a novel condition known as “alpha-gal food allergy\,” which causes some patients to experience allergic symptoms when they eat mammalian meat such as pork and beef. She has a cohort of patients with this condition and\, together with her UNC colleagues\, is trying to understand this condition at all levels — in the clinic\, in the community\, and at the bench. Dr. Jerath firmly believes that what they learn has the potential to help not only her patients with this condition\, but also to shed new light on the broader field of food allergy. \nMaya Jerath is an Associate Professor of Medicine and Pediatrics and serves as Associate Chief of Clinical Allergy and Immunology in the Division of Rheumatology\, Allergy\, and Immunology. Dr. Jerath is Director of the UNC Allergy & Immunology Clinic.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Darren DeWalt "Healthcare Payment and Changing Healthcare Delivery: What is an Accountable Care Organization?”
DESCRIPTION:As of the beginning of this year\, UNC Senior Alliance\, our Accountable Care Organization (ACO)\, is responsible for the total cost of care for approximately 24\,000 attributed Medicare beneficiaries in the Triangle and Caldwell service areas\, regardless of where they receive care. \nOur ACO rewards coordinated care across settings and provides us with flexibility to test innovative care delivery approaches\, such as telehealth in a patient’s home and expansion of home health services. By reducing avoidable costs\, we can invest in other needed services (e.g.\, transportation services\, case management\, etc.). \nOur first goal is to reduce avoidable ED utilization\, admissions and readmissions. We are concentrating our implementation efforts on UNC REX\, UNC Hospitals\, Caldwell Memorial Hospital and Chatham Hospital. \nDr. DeWalt was part of the work team that implemented these programs. He is Chief of the Division of General Medicine and Clinical Epidemiology.

SUMMARY:Medicine Grand Rounds\, Gary Winzelberg "Medications for Dementia and Its Complications: Are We Treating Patients or Ourselves?"
DESCRIPTION:Dementia (Alzheimer’s disease and other major neurocognitive disorders) affects 15% of the United States’ population older than age 65 and is the sixth leading cause of deaths among all adults. Despite the impact of dementia on patients\, families and society\, the last FDA-approved treatment was in 2003. \nIn this presentation\, Dr. Winzelberg will share evidence-based approaches to both treating dementia and its behavioral disturbances. Dementia remains a disorder in need of more effective pharmacologic therapies. Dr. Winzelberg will discuss strategies to minimize potential harms from currently available treatments for patients with dementia\, including de-prescribing of medications with unfavorable benefit to burden expectations.  \nDr. Winzelberg serves as an associate professor in UNC’s Division of Geriatric Medicine and Palliative Care Program. He was Medical Director of Carol Woods Retirement Community from 2008-2016. His clinical and teaching interests involve improving the care of vulnerable older adults through effective physician communication with patients and their family caregivers.
