The second episode of season two of Healthcare Reimagined was recorded on November 17th, 2020. I had a chance to speak with Dr. Edmondo Robinson, who is the Chief Digital Innovation officer for the Moffitt Cancer Center. In his last role, he served as the Chief Transformation Officer and Senior VP of Consumerism at ChristianaCare, one of the largest health care providers in the mid-Atlantic. Dr. Robinson is an associate professor of oncologic sciences at the University of South Florida’s Morsani College of Medicine. He received his MD from UCLA; his MBA from Wharton; and his Master’s in health policy research from the University of Pennsylvania.
We began with a discussion about the long-term impacts of COVID on healthcare, specifically related to the move from volume to value based care. We then discussed the technological and behavioral challenges associated with utilizing AI tools to improve care. We dove into the intersection of AI and race, building upon a webinar the SCHI hosted this summer with Dr. Michael Kearns and Aaron Roth, the Co-Authors of “The Ethical Algorithm.” Worse outcomes among people of color are sometimes associated with genetics, but in fact, as Dr. Robinson points out, these are really the result of both systemic racism and implicit biases. We discussed some of the many ways in which COVID has illuminated racial disparities within our society, and how race is related to Socioeconomic Determinants of Health.
The Society for HealthCare Innovation is a community of professionals dedicated to improving healthcare through innovation. We are comprised of physicians, nurses, healthcare executives, tech and industry leaders, and many more with a unifying ethos and mission- improving healthcare through innovation.
