Terry Shaw 0:03
There are many times that I would want to go back and deal with the issues that I'm comfortable with when what I really needed to be doing is making sure that I was working on communications and organization and thoughtful planning for the future of our organization. There was a time period where I just told the team, I'm out of the firefight. I'm taking four people and we're going to spend two weeks doing exactly what I said. So that's what we did.
Gary Bisbee 0:30
That was Terry Shaw, President and CEO AdventHealth, discussing the necessity for a CEO to focus on the right things, rather than those with which they might be most comfortable. I'm Gary Bisbee, and this is Fireside Chat. Terry outlined AdventHealth's 2030 aspirations document and spoke about how the experience with COVID accelerates the consumer plan from five to two and a half years and how they decided to harden their telehealth services into a business. Let's listen to Terry respond to a question about whether it will become a new core competency of health systems to flex up and down in the face of a crisis.
Terry Shaw 1:07
For this crisis specifically, that means you have to have an inventory of not only people but equipment and supplies that you can move across your system. As you turn PC us into IC us and med surge into PC us as COVID ramps up. What I never want to have done in the future is a complete shutdown. We need to be able to flex up and down with the outbreak that happened across the country in the markets that we're in and not disturb the other markets that we're in. While we're providing normal routine care to everybody.
Gary Bisbee 1:43
Our conversation includes Terry's view of how consolidation among provider health systems will play out over the next three years. What steps CMS should take to make care more efficient and consumer focus, how he expects AdventHealth to lose from $400 to $600 million in 2020, what were his first thoughts when he realized that the covert crisis is going to envelop AdventHealth, and what personal and professional learnings he took away from the crisis. I'm delighted to welcome Terry Shaw to the microphone. Well, good afternoon, Terry, and welcome.
