BOLD Healthcare from the Outside-In Aveus, a division of medecision

In our fifth and final episode of Season 2, our host Chris LaVictoire Mahai sits down with Octave’s Golee Abrishami, PhD, VP of Clinical Care, and Tony Glebe, Head of Business Development, to dig into the vast and often misunderstood topic of mental and behavioral health. Discussing a subject close to home for many yet only more recently thrust into the spotlight, Chris, Golee, and Tony explore the experiences of consumers/patients, clinicians, and healthcare organizations all trying to navigate this rapidly evolving space.

Join host Chris LaVictoire Mahai as she sits down with Jaffer Traish, the Chief Operating Officer of findhelp, to discuss the current challenges of, and great opportunity in, supporting consumers seeking help when they need it most. Access to quality healthcare is, of course, one great need. Then there are all the daily living needs everyone must juggle that have dramatic impacts on a person’s health and well-being. Access to healthy meals, transportation, financial aid, and safe shelter are just some examples.
What is the experience of individuals who have limited means, no health insurance, and no ready options for physical and/or mental healthcare nearby? How pervasive are these problems today? Where are we seeing innovative ideas and community action making a difference? Jaffer and Chris take on all these questions and more.

In this episode, host Chris LaVictoire Mahai sits down with Tia Newcomer, CEO of CaringBridge, to discuss those who are critical to the health and wellness of our inner circles and broader communities yet far too often left out of the conversation: caregivers.

Together, Tia and Chris unpack questions and stories that illuminate the unpaid caregiver experience today: Who are they? What barriers and burdens do they face? What value, seen and unseen, do they provide? And, as our title suggests, who in healthcare truly cares about them?
