This paper outlines strategic approaches to payer negotiations, emphasizing the importance of clearly defining practice strengths, understanding market conditions, and leveraging detailed contextual data to counter incomplete or misleading payer analytics. Specific considerations discussed include customer service efficiency, claims management, provider-payer relationships, clinical management policies, contract terms, and fee schedule clarity. We present actionable negotiation strategies illustrated by a case study, highlighting tactics such as targeted utilization reports, social media advocacy, and data-driven reimbursement proposals. Additionally, practical advice is provided on managing payer interactions, addressing common administrative inefficiencies, and strategically limiting patient volumes when negotiations stall. This structured negotiation approach empowers neurologists to effectively align clinical value with payer objectives, ensuring fair reimbursement and enhanced practice viability.</p>","PeriodicalId":49544,"journal":{"name":"Seminars in Neurology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2025-05-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144188391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As neurology becomes more complex-expanding diagnostics, treatments, and subspecialties-there is a growing need for usable, efficient electronic health record systems that enhance, rather than burden, care delivery. This paper reviews roles CI neurologists can play, as translators, architects, advocates, and leaders across clinical, operational, and strategic domains. We highlight examples where CI expertise addresses challenges in neurology, including access to care, documentation burden, burnout, quality improvement, patient engagement, artificial intelligence, research registries, and precision health.

However, clinical features of excessive sleepiness can have broad and variable presentations. In addition, there can be an increased likelihood of medical or psychiatric comorbidity. Examination of the networks that regulate sleep-wake and circadian control reveals a complex and intricately designed integration system. Dysregulation in the coordination, effectiveness, or efficiency of these systems can contribute to developing EDS, and inform on the endotypes observed and pharmacologic considerations for treatment. The discovery and characterization of the diurnal expression and function of orexin (hypocretin) have led to a transformed understanding of sleep-wake control and EDS, as well as its role beyond sleep. As a result, a novel drug class, orexin agonists, is anticipated to emerge for clinical use in the near future. An understanding of orexin physiology and its transdisciplinary impact is necessary to best prepare for patient selection, use, and anticipated benefit and monitoring of both expected benefits and any other health change.

This chapter examines the roles of sleep and circadian rhythms in memory consolidation, synaptic plasticity, and clearance of metabolic waste, highlighting recent advances in neuroscience research. We explore how insufficient and disordered sleep-a public health concern-can impair cognition, escalate neurodegenerative risks, and compromise neurovascular integrity, thereby impacting brain health. These findings underscore the need for comprehensive screening for disturbed sleep and targeted interventions in clinical practice. Emerging interventions and AI-driven technologies may allow early detection and personalized and individualized treatments and improve outcomes.

Categorized broadly as disorders of arousal (DoA), confusional arousals (CoA), sleepwalking (SW), and sleep terrors (ST) share common pathophysiological mechanisms and contributing factors. Sexsomnia is classified as a variant of CoA and SW, while sleep-related eating disorder is classified as a separate NREM parasomnia. These parasomnias emerge due to incomplete dissociation of wakefulness from NREM sleep, resulting in partial arousal characterized by decreased consciousness during motor and emotional manifestations. The behaviors emerge as a result of the interplay of various predisposing and priming factors with the additional layer of precipitating conditions. Cyclic alternating patterns and abnormal slow wave synchronization increase susceptibility to developing these behaviors in the background of genetic predisposition. We will discuss current diagnostic criteria, differential diagnoses, implications, and management of these parasomnias. Recent scientific developments in this area will be discussed, especially in reference to etiopathogenesis and treatment strategies of lesser-studied subtypes such as sexsomnia. The mainstay of treatment comprises alleviating the contributing factors and treating any comorbid sleep disorders that may curtail sleep duration and also increase abnormal arousal.
