    Public Health – a Conversation with Brian Castrucci, DrPH, MA, president and chief executive officer of the de Beaumont Foundation

    Public health is sometimes commonly short-handed as all the other factors that lead to maintaining a health society – i.e. “the social determinants of health.” Our national health pandemic has only highlighted the gaps we have in addressing public health challenges in our society – with the dramatic impact it has had on underserved communities. And with record level of unemployment in these same communities and the partisan approach to addressing this pandemic, is there such a thing as a political determinant of health?. In this episode, I speak with Brian Castrucci, president and chief executive officer of the de Beaumont Foundation, a leading voice in health philanthropy and public health practice. Brian leads the de Beaumont Foundation’s efforts to advance policy, build partnerships, and strengthen the public health system to create communities where people can achieve their best possible health.  Listen in as we discuss how public health should change in a post-COVID19 world.

    Financial Stability of the Healthcare Industry – a Conversation with Michael Krivich, Corporate Healthcare Business & Marketing Strategist

    Health systems traditionally operate at razor-thin margins, yet have been embracing growth strategies through mergers and acquisitions, or adapting to shifts in care delivery models (from inpatient to outpatient) – all in an effort to stay solvent. Couple that with the rise of the consumer patient, that is also carrying a heavier burden of share of wallet with their healthcare expenses, and it’s clear that the system is already facing a fiscal crisis. Now with the added financial crisis of our national pandemic impacting both patient and provider equally, will the system be able to afford to continue in the same way in a post-COVID19 world? In this episode, I speak with Michael Krivich, corporate healthcare business & marketing strategist. A 30 year veteran in the healthcare industry, Michael has worked in senior leadership positions in hospitals, health systems, GPO, Specialty Pharmacy, and internationally. An internationally recognized influencer, his blog is read in 52 countries. Michael works as an independent consultant for hospital business and marketing strategy. Listen in as we discuss how the fiscal side of healthcare delivery might change in a post-COVID19 world.

    Consumerism and Marketing Technology – a Conversation with Carrie Liken, Head of Healthcare Industry at Yext

The trends in the marketplace are clear - consumers are actively demanding better access and more information so they can make better decisions about their care.

    The Patient Mindset – a Conversation with Tom Hileman, President of The Hileman Group

    The conversation about the future of healthcare often leaves out an important – and perhaps critical perspective– the role of the patient.

What long-term changes will the COVID19 crisis have on the patient’s mindset in society? I speak with Tom Hileman, President of Hileman Group, a healthcare marketing agency that develops high-touch, data-driven marketing solutions for leading healthcare organizations nationwide.

    Healthcare Marketing Strategy – a Conversation with Jackie Martin, Digital Marketing Strategy Consultant

    Healthcare marketing is different than marketing for other industries – but many of us also commonly complain that our industry lags behind other industries.

Does this represent a fundamental problem with healthcare marketing? In this episode, I speak with Jackie Martin, Principal and Owner of Branch Strategy.

    Healthcare Policy - a Conversation with Paul Keckley, Principal at the Keckley Group

    The ties between health policy and healthcare delivery have been critical, but there has been an ongoing tension between state and federal approaches regarding our industry.  During the coronavirus pandemic, healthcare crisis relief legislation has been passed to support health systems’ response to the crisis. Additionally, relaxation of legislation has hastened the adoption of interoperability and telemedicine. In this episode, I speak with Paul Keckley, a healthcare policy analyst and widely known industry expert. Paul is an advisor to healthcare organizations focused on long-term growth, sustainability and advocacy strategies. His past experience includes facilitating sessions between White House Office of Health Reform and major health industry trade groups as private sector input through the Affordable Care Act.

    Healthcare Data Privacy - a Conversation with Kurt Waltenbaugh, Founder and CEO of Carrot Health

    From contact tracing efforts that are designed to track travel and location data on cellphones to manage the spread of the virus, to the Department of Health and Human Services backing off certain privacy rules to make it easier for hospitals and vendors to share patient medical records with public health officials, in America the privacy of PHI is evolving. In this episode, I speak with Kurt Waltenbaugh, Founder and CEO of Carrot Health. Kurt has built his career focused on: using data to predict and influence consumer behavior. Through this, he has built successful analytic solutions, products and companies that serve many industries including health care, retail, education, and credentialing.
