The healthcare landscape is evolving, and at the center of this transformation is a renewed focus on that which should be most important: the patient and family we serve.   This podcast episode's primary theme features Carole Fisher, President of the National Partnership for Healthcare and Hospice Innovation (NPHI), and Bill Keane, Vice President and Director of Strategy at Emergence. 

The conversation delves into the current state of healthcare, particularly end-of-life care, and the need for a paradigm shift in how we view and manage it.  One of the significant points highlighted in this riveting discussion is the importance of putting people before profits.  This notion should be at the heart of any healthcare discussion, but with today’s challenges and pressures, non-profits are spearheading the call to return to the most important one. 

Recently, NPHI partnered with Emergence to publish a report titled “People Over Profits.”  The report highlighted many significant findings that have the potential to guide serious illness providers through the challenges of the future.  Here’s a great quote from the Executive Summary of the report that we unpack and discuss, “Community-based mission-driven organizations can offer a new narrative of what healthcare can and should be.”  The report included a section on the identified top concerns about aging, which are critical if serious illness providers want to understand the evolving landscape, desires, and needs of those we serve.  In the last portion of the episode, Carole and Bill directly speak to hospice and palliative care leaders and their advice to them, given the findings of this groundbreaking work. 

Join us.  This podcast episode is not only insightful but also thought-provoking.  It offers a fresh perspective on the future of healthcare and the potential of hospice and palliative care organizations to lead the way into the future.
