    000 - Your Podcasters - Who We Are

    Since we're not celebrities it seems important to let everyone know just who we are and where we work! Don Hall, MPH, is a Principal at DeltaSigma, LLC. Don got his Masters in Public Health in the 1970s studying epidemiology and human ecology, and has been in public health (maternal health, for-profit and non-profit hospitals, for-profit and non-profit health plans) since then. He brings great experience in many facets in healthcare over the last 40+ years. Jeff Carlisle is a Vice President at The TPG Family of Companies, which is a group of five different LLCs that offer consulting services to companies in US healthcare. Jeff got a BA in English from the University of Connecticut in 2007 but has been working in healthcare consulting since 2008. Jeff has traveled to over a dozen countries to study their healthcare systems with TPG International Health Academy. Healthcare is complicated, and so many different fields play a role in how healthcare is administered, paid for, provided, innovated, etc, and it's impossible for any one person to have a handle on all of it. Our podcast aims to have conversations with various experts in these fields so we can bring people information they may not have themselves. Don provides the official knowledge and experience from inside the healthcare system as a professional, and Jeff adds the everyday layman's perspective of someone who must interface with the often over-complicated healthcare system in the US. We hope this little introduction provides some background on who we are and why this podcast, and these conversations, are important.
