  1. What Healthcare Leaders Miss When They've Never Been the Patient | Stephanie Abbott

    What Healthcare Leaders Miss When They've Never Been the Patient | Stephanie Abbott

    In this episode of Humanizing Healthcare, we speak with Stephanie Abbott — author, speaker, and former Chief Experience Officer — about what healthcare leaders miss when they've only ever seen the system from the inside. Stephanie spent years leading patient experience strategy at major health systems, including Adventist Health. She understood patient experience intellectually. Then she became a cancer patient — and realized how much she didn't know. She shares what it felt like to spend 63 days not knowing if she would survive, and 83 days waiting to start treatment. She explains why those gaps weren't failures of compassion — they were failures of design. And why fixing them requires more than launching a new PX program. This conversation gets into the difference between measuring satisfaction and understanding trust, why employee experience and patient experience can't be separated, and what it actually takes for leaders to build systems where compassion is sustainable — not just expected. If you want to understand what humanizing healthcare really demands of its leaders, this is the episode. 🎧 Take a listen.

  2. Adopting Patient-Centered Outcome Measures with ICHOM CEO Jennifer Bright

    Adopting Patient-Centered Outcome Measures with ICHOM CEO Jennifer Bright

    In this episode of Humanizing Healthcare, we speak with Jennifer Bright, CEO of International Consortium for Health Outcomes Measurement (ICHOM), about what healthcare value really means and confront a question that challenges how most systems operate: Are we measuring what actually helps patients get better, or just what’s easy to count? Healthcare has become very good at tracking processes. But as Jennifer explains, many of the things we label as “outcomes” are actually tasks we do to or for patients. Screenings, follow-ups, time-to-needle. Important, yes. But they’re not results. Jennifer shares how ICHOM works with health systems around the world to define and use patient-centered outcome measures that reflect real results. She explains why survival alone does not tell the full story, why mental health and functional recovery matter, and why value must be defined by improvement in people’s lives. If we’re serious about humanizing healthcare, value has to mean improvement in people’s lives. This conversation pushes us to live up to that standard. 🎧 Take a listen. Key Takeaways Introduction (00:00) Jennifer’s personal journey into patient advocacy (02:43) From lived experience to healthcare system reform (06:27) What ICHOM does and how it was founded (09:04) Why measuring patient outcomes took so long (12:35) What measuring outcomes looks like in practice (19:04) Misconceptions about outcomes and what patients value (26:16) Additional Resources ICHOM website: https://www.ichom.org/ ICHOM LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/international-consortium-for-health-outcomes-measurement-ichom-/ Jennifer Bright’s LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenniferbrightmhs/ ---- Story Submission Link for New Book: https://forms.gle/32juxZ7aYFSuugBi7 Fidelum Health LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fidelum-health/ Planetree LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/planetree/ ---- Unlock the power of our HUMAN Brand™ insights model for enhanced patient, team member, and care provider experiences: https://fidelumhealth.com/ Learn how Planetree can help your organization deliver person-centered care at: https://www.planetree.org/

    Transforming Hospitals With Patient & Family Advisory Councils w/ Barbara Lewis

    How do we make sure hospitals are truly listening to the people they serve? In this episode, I am joined by Jill Adolphe from Planetree to talk to Barbara Lewis, a powerhouse advocate for the patient voice and founder of Healthcare PX. What started as a personal tragedy for Barbara became a mission to elevate how hospitals engage with patients and families through PFACs (Patient and Family Advisory Councils). We discuss why PFACs too often become symbolic and how, with the right metrics and leadership support, they can become engines of real change. Barbara shares what the best-performing councils do differently, why measurement is everything, and how hospitals like Kaiser Permanente have set a gold standard. We also talk about the future of PFACs and why they must evolve alongside digital health, AI, and new care models. It’s also time healthcare catches up with other industries in valuing customer feedback. Barbara is the author of the book: The Marketing Success Book. Interested in researching hospital Patient and Family Advisory Councils (PFACs), she went back to school, obtaining a PhD from UNLV School of Public Health in 2025, where she currently teaches. Her dissertation was a mixed-method study on Patient and Family Advisory Councils (PFACs). 🎧 Listen now and learn how to prove the value of the patient voice and PFACs! Key Takeaways Introduction (00:00) Barbara Lewis’s journey and research (01:17) Defining success for PFACs (05:51) Challenges and barriers in PFACs sustainability (08:39) Best practices for high-performing PFACs (10:43) Demonstrating financial and operational value in PFACs (11:34) Recruiting and retaining diverse PFAC members (15:04) Integrating PFACs into hospital governance (17:33) PFAC accelerators and outcomes (19:18) Future of PFACs and best practices (20:45) Q&A session (28:19) Additional Resources Healthcare PX Website: https://healthcarepx.org/ Barbara Lewis LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/in/barbaralewisjfbr/ —- Fidelum Health LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/fidelum-health/ Planetree LinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/planetree/ ---- Unlock the power of our HUMAN Brand™ insights model for enhanced patient, team member, and care provider experiences: https://fidelumhealth.com/ Learn how Planetree can help your organization deliver person-centered care at: https://www.planetree.org/
