Healthcare DisruPTion

Mentoring--- Mindset and the magic it creates!

Welcome to our first Interview of 2017!  The theme of What Ifs and DOING takes right off today in this conversation with Mitch Babcock, DPT.  

Mitch is what we call a #FreshPT, out of school just around 8 months.  Mitch has started his own business and is making his presence felt far wider than just his home town of Holly, MI.  We dont talk the tactics of business or financials…. We talk about the bigger issues.  The HOWs and the WHYs of how he got to this point.  

Mitch discussions, mentors, mindset, and the good and the bad of twitter.  He talks about supporters and also the detractors.   Take a listen regardless of where you are in career, Mitch brings some great insight to the disruption discussion….

Welcome to episode 14, the first Healthcare DisruPTion podcast of 2017!  Its short and sweet and no looking back!  In this episode Andrew and Jerry approach 2017 with the continual question “What If?”  

We rephrase some old questions and look to formulate new questions to old, ongoing issues in healthcare and physical therapy.  

Our challenge to YOU is to commit to new, different and even absurd questions in 2017 to the problems that have plagued you, healthcare and PT!

Welcome to episode 13.  In no way shape or form did we plan on this interview with Mike Eisenhart to be one of the last things you heard in 2016….BUT we should have!   We ALWAYS hear about “the future” and “plans for the future” yet we rarely hear about the execution to take control of the future.  Well Mike has a grand plan and he is EXECUTING it!  Mike is a rare find and exactly what physical therapy and more so, healthcare needs!  

Open your ears and take the blinders off your brain because what you are about to hear will cause you to think like you've never thought before about the role of physical therapy.  Welcome to physical therapy 2.0. Welcome to the future. Stay a while.

The opportunity for the profession of physical therapy is NOW!

Low back pain has just moved up to the #2 spot on the World Disability list...YES, World! Physical therapists are poised to step up and deliver a solution for a HUGE problem!  Big question is, are YOU ready?  

It will take more than just your clinical skills to make that happen.  My guest today, Jeff Moore gets just that.  It will take the Evidence Based Medicine WITH a focus on the patient experience (which starts with brand recognition) to be the healthcare provider of choice for low back pain!  Listen in as we discuss their ideas on how to deliver the education to Physical Therapists to be THIS Solution.

Today’s episode of Healthcare DisruPTion is an eye opening, mindshifting conversation  with an insurance industry expert, Richard Zhao.  Hell may just be about 1-2 degrees cooler today because YES! I have embraced someone from the insurance industry!  Richard brings his expertise and insight from years of running numbers for the musculoskeletal unit of a major US insurance provider to enlighten us on HOW the 3rd party payers look at physical therapists and their role in managing LBP.  

Richard is a true believer that physical therapists should be the entry point for all LBP patients in America.  And he believes that we can prove that point by using the data we already collect and gather on a daily basis.  At this point Richard’s knowledge will tell us how to bring the change to the insurance industry, instead of waiting for the insurance industry to bring us change!

 

Be sure to find Richard and Jerry presenting this plan at the Private Practice Section Conference in Las Vegas on Thurs Oct 20th at 10.45am PST!   

Thanks for listening!

Welcome to the 7th episode of Healthcare DisruPTion with Andrew Rothschild and Jerry Durham.  The conversation continues regarding the Customer Lifecycle.  This episode addresses the objectives of the customer lifecycle such as why do I need to put a lifecycle in place?  You will hear the discussion focus around WHO is the key employee in your company (hint...they do not have initials behind their name).  You will hear how these employee are involved in all the early interactions and becomes the voice of the company!  Lastly, we will discuss how with the Customer Lifecycle in place your employees will be empowered and in place to drive the change to make important improvements in the company.  The future is here, don’t fight it and don’t take it personally.  Time to figure out how to achieve your patient outcomes and keep your patients happy...all at the same time!

In this Episode Jerry and Andrew continue the conversation around the Customer Lifecycle.  There are multiples layers that create a successful Customer Lifecycle.  Today Jerry and Andrew speak about the importance of TEAM.  How does hiring, training and accountabilities fit into creating a great experience for the customer (patient)!  If you haven’t created the culture of team then you can never truly take care of the customer (patient).  We also address the role of customer service and its role in this process.  Lastly, we talk about how an interview should go from the perspective of the owner sitting across from you.

Thanks for listening to Healthcare Disruption!
