Collision Point

For years, the industry has entertained buzzwords like “interoperability” and “big data,” but what progress has really been made if a universally recognized information gap still exists? Is closing this gap too inconvenient from a business standpoint? Do we truly not have the tech to bridge the gap? This episode will explore the good, bad, and the ugly that is health data sharing.

Digital health systems are producing incredible amounts of valuable patient data for analysis and discovery. The data trove is revolutionary, research-ready and primed to drive transformational change.  

In this episode, Murry and Jeff discuss how applying technology like artificial intelligence and predictive analytics to population health data can lead to the discovery of lifesaving therapies, identify early warning signs and diagnosis, close critical gaps in care and more. 

The purpose of value-based care is to improve individual health 

outcomes. But without meaningful use incentives and the expansion of health IT in LTAPC facilities, how close are we to actually achieving VBC? While VBC has long dominated the healthcare payment conversation, are we there yet? 

Inaccessible clinical data has - and continues to - hamper organizations’ ability to implement this model of care, and a lack of government investment is making matters worse.  

This episode will explore how a greater investment in overall digital health is needed and how it can help value-based care succeed.  

What was once a trendy industry term with limited real-world evidence of success – particularly before the pandemic – telehealth has since experienced more widespread adoption, transforming the patient-provider relationship as we know it. In this episode, we will dive into the state of telehealth and discuss how virtual care solutions have evolved to meet the challenges of today’s care dynamics and the promise it holds, specifically for treating today’s vulnerable populations. 

As an industry, healthcare strives to improve population health and care outcomes for patients. But when outcomes are being improved for one segment of the population, these goals become effectively impossible. This episode will dive into health equity, exploring its role in achieving better population health, and how the industry can work to ensure better outcomes for all patients, regardless of race, age, socio-economic background, and more. 

Healthcare is fragmented. From disjointed care transitions to non-communicative systems, disconnected processes disrupt the care landscape. These existing fractures can only be mended through the collision of ideas that challenge the status quo. 

We’re starting this podcast for patients, for providers, for the future of care. It’s time to shatter siloes in healthcare, one conversation at a time, to drive true change. On every episode, real problems, real providers, and real perspectives collide to spark real transformation. 

Listen along as healthcare’s movers, shakers, and innovators examine pressing issues within the industry.
