As someone who helped coin the phrase “purchasing population health,” David Kindig has been at the forefront of the move to a health care system that prioritizes outcomes, aligns incentive structures, and eliminates waste. His work has always been prophetic and ahead of its time, pushing value based purchasing in the 90s before most knew what it meant. His approach weaves population health concepts with emerging cross-sector partnership frameworks, all in an effort to prioritize health, reduce inequality, and unleash our collective potential, all in an effort to achieve longer, healthier lives for all of us.

Harper Reed knows more than most that technology designed to do great things can be easily weaponized to do bad things. His view of the role technology should (and should not) play is heavily influenced by decades of work bringing technology to the forefront in industries such as ecommerce, politics, and startups. When the covid-19 pandemic hit, Harper was involved in efforts to help guide technological supports for the critical work being done in communities across the country, and has emerged with a deep sense of awe for the public health community and some ideas on how to make the system work better for all of us.

Today’s healthcare delivery system has too little competition and too much regulation, but could we see a fix if both sides of the political spectrum lay down their proverbial swords and agree to key pillars such as universal coverage and broader competition?
