    Are your bags packed for Denver? Gear up for RosettaFest 2025 by listening to this conversation between MTVA and Dave Chase!  If you don’t yet know the pioneering disruptor Dave Chase, he’s on a mission to restore hope, health and economic prosperity to communities through healthcare transformation. Dave is a Co-Founder and CEO of Health Rosetta, a blueprint for high-performing health benefits using simple, practical fixes. Health Rosetta helps employers and unions provide better care for their members, while reducing benefits spending by 20-40%.  We discuss driving transformation within our multibillion dollar healthcare industry, navigating political headwinds, and scaling healthcare fixes from the local level with Health Rosetta.  “Healthcare was systematically extracting wealth from communities and families, all while delivering mediocre outcomes. And honestly it’s the largest wealth transfer in American history, from the working and middle class – who’ve had 30 years of wage gain stolen – to Wall Street and their water carriers. That was the cold hard truth that I found.”  Watch Dave’s TEDxTalk or read his books: The CEO’s Guide to Restoring the American Dream, Opioid Crisis Wake-up Call, and Relocalizing Health Further Listening from MTVA Unscripted: Employer Series - Part 1: The Critical Importance of Getting and Owning Your Claims Data What Employers Need To Do Now to Comply With CAA by End of Year : MTVA Talks to Chris Deacon From ERISA to CAA: How Has Employer’s Fiduciary Responsibility Changed Over Time? “YOU Are the Customer”: Fixing Healthcare from the CEO’s Desk w/ Darrell Moon Other Sources Referenced: Dr. Michael Fine’s book On Medicine as Colonialism Nautilus Health Institute SoNE Health's Crushing Healthcare “Healthcare is Local” ———————————— All episodes of MTVA Unscripted can be found⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠. | Sign up for our email list here.

    The Growing Direct Primary Care Movement w/ Frontier Direct Care Founder Dr. Peter Lazzopina

    “The only thing that actually reduces mortality and morbidity in primary care is a long-term relationship with a PCP.” In this conversation, MTVA explores the fast-growing movement of direct primary care (DPC) with special guest Peter Lazzopina, MD - Founder of Frontier Direct Care in Texas. Based in the Rio Grande Valley, Frontier has grown organically from a single-man operation to a thriving network that’s redefining access, cost, and outcomes. Dr. Lazzopina describes how relationship-based medicine works better for patients, employers and providers. The model keeps physician panel sizes small, visits long, and incentives fully aligned—resulting in high provider morale, better health outcomes, and big savings for employers. By partnering with Frontier, the city of McAllen, TX reduced ER visits by 74% in just one year. In two years, Frontier saved the city $8 million! Dr. Lazzopina and Frontier are proving that DPC can help solve our primary care crisis! This is a grassroots movement with real momentum—and one that can’t be ignored! NOTE: Frontier Direct Care has a business relationship with MTVA Board Member Dr. Steve Schutzer’s company Upswing Health. This episode is NOT sponsored by Upswing nor Frontier. ———————————— All episodes of MTVA Unscripted can be found⁠ ⁠here⁠⁠. | Sign up for our email list here.

    Delivering Real Value: Insights from Kevin Bozic, MD, MBA and the UT-Austin Dell Med Success Story

    What does “value” in health care actually mean—and how do we get there? MTVA sat down with a top leader in the value movement who’s put the value philosophy into practice!  Kevin Bozic, MD, MBA is Chair of Surgery and Perioperative Care at Dell Medical School at The University of Texas at Austin. He’s internationally recognized in the field of orthopaedic surgery (a Past President of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons) and a leading force in value-based health care.  For Dr. Bozic, value isn’t just about cutting costs or providing better services. It’s about delivering HEALTH.  “You can provide the lowest cost, most efficient, high quality, safe health care, and unless it improves someone's health, you haven't created any value.”  Since joining Dell Med in 2015, Dr. Bozic has built a department from the ground up around one central philosophy: health is the goal, and care is one contributor to achieving it. By recruiting mission-driven clinicians and fostering a team culture grounded in purpose, his department has seen not only improved outcomes, but also provider satisfaction and staff retention. In this episode, Dr. Bozic discusses: Why “health care” should always be 2 words—and what that distinction means The power of making health our North Star Why value must be measured by patient-reported health outcomes What it takes to shift culture in medicine—and how he built a new model from scratch How turf wars and rigid incentives are holding us back—and what we can do about it He challenges fellow physicians to take ownership of reform: “No one is more responsible for how we deliver and pay for health care than physicians, and we're the people that the rest of the world trusts. Society trusts us. They don't trust the government or health plans or bureaucrats or anyone else to fix these problems.”  Dr. Bozic also reflects on changes in medical education, and his experiences training the next generation of physicians.  If you’ve ever asked what it would take to fix the U.S. health system from the inside out, this conversation offers both vision and proof of concept!  “If we could get the country focused on the whole end game here in health care is health, that would be a step forward.” To learn more about the proposed cuts to Medicaid, check out our episode with Stephanie Noriea.  Sources Referenced: “Who Killed Health Care?

    “YOU Are the Customer”: Fixing Healthcare from the CEO’s Desk w/ Darrell Moon

    “I really do think it's as simple as waking up the buyer, because if the buyer is going to define what they want and hold people accountable, everything else will happen naturally.” One often overlooked stakeholder in the U.S. healthcare system is business leaders. Our guest this week, Darrell Moon, is on a mission to mobilize these decision makers. Darrell is the CEO and Founder of Orriant and Aspirational Healthcare. As a hospital administrator, Darrell saw the profound misalignment between the health system and its customers. For the last 30 years, he’s been advocating for a different approach – based on the Nuka System of Care in Alaska and Deming’s principles – and coaching executives on how they can too! His recent book “Make Healthcare Work for You” is a pragmatic guide for how CEOs can get better healthcare for HALF the price. Darrell and MTVA discuss his new book and how CEOs can lead the movement to better healthcare!

  6. Transforming Dermatology Through Value-Based Virtual Care w/ Zest Founder Olivia Deitcher

    Transforming Dermatology Through Value-Based Virtual Care w/ Zest Founder Olivia Deitcher

    Thinking about Dermatology may bring to mind Botox injections and commercials for anti-aging skincare products, but behind the scenes, it’s one of the most broken specialties in healthcare. Long wait times for short visits, some of the most expensive drugs on the market, and a system that too often overlooks patients with chronic autoimmune skin conditions. In this episode, we sit down with Olivia Deitcher – Founder and CEO of Zest Health and one of Slice of Healthcare’s “50 under 50" leaders transforming our health system. A “patient founder” living with psoriasis and a veteran of the biopharma startup world, Olivia launched Zest to build the dermatology experience she wished for: high-touch, data-driven, and value-based. “I am candidly very optimistic about where dermatology as a field can go if we can put in place value-based care rails.”  Zest is a virtual-first dermatology clinic designed for patients with chronic autoimmune conditions like psoriasis and eczema. Zest patients are seen within days (not months), and get continuous follow-up care with frequent engagement (30-60 minute visits every 4-6 weeks). Through what Olivia calls the “de-prescription paradigm”, Zest helps patients reduce unnecessary medication use and better manage their conditions — saving tens of thousands of dollars per patient. “We bring a very vast toolkit of therapeutic interventions into the analysis of what is appropriate for the patient. It may be that that patient should change their laundry detergent… see if that helps alleviate things. Just moving to a $6 unscented laundry detergent, before we initiate that patient onto a $90,000 therapeutic where they’re going to have to be at home, injecting a drug into themselves, managing the side effects, and feeling like that’s the only answer.” Olivia and her team are serious about the movement to value – Zest only enters value-based arrangements that pay for improving their patients’ quality of life.  Listen to hear why 91% of their patients said Zest is a better approach to dermatology care – and how Zest accomplishes this while saving patients and their employers hundreds of thousands of dollars on unneeded prescriptions.  To learn more about the link between environment, lifestyle and health, check out our episode with Dr. Elizabeth Boham.

    Value-based Primary Care: Payment Models that Reward Providers w/ Mary Tracy Mock

    “Right now, the value-based care reward is coming into the payers far more than it’s coming into the providers.” A primary care provider shortage is on the horizon. Between resolving coverage disputes, trying to get reimbursed for services, and limited time with patients, PCPs are burnt out. But what if we reimagine the primary care payment model to work better for providers and patients?   In this episode, we sit down with Mary Tracy Mock to tackle one of the most urgent and complex issues in healthcare today: the state of primary care and the payment arrangements shaping its future. Mary is a seasoned healthcare executive and veteran of value-based arrangements.  We break down the pressing primary care workforce crisis, and how outdated reimbursement systems are contributing to provider burnout and could soon lead to primary care “deserts.” Mary makes a compelling case for a radical reimagining of how we value and pay for primary care — from capitation to Direct Primary Care (DPC) and beyond. Whether you’re a policymaker, provider or patient, this conversation will challenge your assumptions — and offer real solutions!

    How eConsults Empower Primary Care, Expand Access for the Underserved & Unlock Savings w/ ConferMED’s Dr. Daren Anderson

    From geography to network adequacy and endless waitlists, getting seen by a specialist can be tricky. And the challenges are even more pronounced for underserved communities – who may be hours away from the provider they need to see, or whose insurance might not be accepted by specialists. Then, after waiting months for an appointment, it may turn out to be one of the many specialist referrals that are unnecessary.  There’s a better way: eConsults. In this episode, MTVA sits down with Dr. Daren Anderson, the President and Founder of ConferMED, a not-for-profit telehealth company that connects primary care practices across the country with specialists through virtual “eConsults”.  “Using an eConsult platform like ConferMED allows you to bring the specialist and the subspecialist into that care team virtually.” Dr. Anderson shares his journey – from primary care provider at a federally qualified health center, to leading the Weitzman Institute, and eventually founding ConferMED, which now helps improve access to specialists across 32 states.  With eConsults, primary care providers are empowered to provide better care without unnecessary referrals, specialists can support more patients efficiently, and patients get answers more quickly. Dr. Anderson and his team have also published research showing that eConsults can generate cost savings for the healthcare system.   “We’re seeing more and more primary care practices looking for eConsult solutions because it makes sense for everybody, not just the underserved. And I kind of like that story, because we figured out something for the underserved that actually makes great sense for everybody else as well, and the underserved got it first!” To learn more about the proposed cuts to Medicaid, check out our episode with Stephanie Noriea.
