206: 24th Secretary of HHS Alex Azar shares his vision on healthcare transformation
As healthcare leaders continue to contend with workforce shortages, technological shifts, and fragile financials it can be hard to predict what the future looks like for their organizations and the transformation that needs to happen to improve healthcare for all.
In this episode, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites the 24th Secretary of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Alex Azar to discuss what "transformation" actually means, what conditions need to be in place to mitigate financial loss, and what leaders can do to advance towards industry-wide transformation.

205: Live from ViVE 2024: Four leaders on how technology is redefining clinical work
You might be burned out from talking about burnout. But the truth is, healthcare workers are still suffering from high administrative burden, reduced autonomy, and a cycle of turnover and retirements that we cannot escape. In response, industry leaders are looking to the latest and greatest technologies to unburden their workforce and improve the mental wellbeing of their staff. But will the promise of a tech-enabled clinical workforce live up to the hype?
In this special episode, recorded live from ViVE 2024, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites Dr. Nele Jessel, Chief Medical Officer at athenahealth, Dr. Jesse Ehrenfeld, President of the American Medical Association, Dr. Syl Trepanier, SVP and System Chief Nursing Officer at Providence, and Dr. Tina Shah, Chief Clinical Officer at Abridge, to discuss the state of the workforce crisis, how new technologies are redefining work, and why emerging technologies like AI might not be a silver bullet.

204: Unveiling "Bespoke Care": Healthcare's tailored future
High-cost drugs, generative AI, diagnostic testing – the pace and sophistication of healthcare innovation has been keeping our experts busy over the past several years. At some point, they realized there was something deeper going on – a sea change in what healthcare innovation is seeking to achieve, and the world it's pushing us toward.
This week, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board innovation experts Solomon Banjo and Nick Hula to talk about a new era of innovation, where progress in diagnostics, treatments, data analysis, and ongoing management have the potential to revolutionize patient care through unprecedented customization. They define what "bespoke care" is, explain how it differs from other delivery models, and highlight the opportunities (and challenges) it presents.

203: Value series: Is the future of VBC in specialty care? Zing Health & Strive Health say yes.
Last week, in part two of our series on value-based care, we talked about how CenterWell, Humana’s provider arm, turned to senior-focused primary care to grow their value-based strategy. But as the Medicare Advantage market gets larger, older, and sicker, it is becoming clear that a focus on primary care isn’t enough. The fact is, VBC in specialty care is the future.
In part three of our value series, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites TJ Ackerman, Senior Vice President of Provider and Network Performance at Zing Health, to discuss what good specialty care in Medicare Advantage looks like. We also talk with one of Zing’s provider partners, Will Stokes, Chief Strategy Officer at Strive Health, a leader in value-based kidney care. Together, TJ and Will discuss the importance of payer-provider partners in value-based specialty care.

202: Value series: Why CenterWell (and Humana) is going all in on senior care
Last week, in part one of our series on value-based care, we talked all about health systems taking on risk, and why that looks a bit different for everyone. This week, we're exploring an organization that embodies that principle. CenterWell, Humana's provider arm, is pursuing value-based care by going all in on senior focused care. So how are they doing it?
In part two of our value series, host Rachel (Rae) Woods invites CenterWell President, Dr. Sanjay Shetty, to discuss the philosophy behind and strategies for pursuing value-based care through senior care management. Throughout the conversation, they discuss why this strategy is right for CenterWell, what it takes to succeed, and how they are navigating today's market challenges.

In a few weeks, Advisory Board will be convening leaders across the industry in New Orleans, Louisiana to talk about the meaning of "value" in healthcare.

In the first episode of our mini-series, host Abby Burns invites Advisory Board value-based care experts Clare Wirth and Daniel Kuzmanovich to paint the landscape of health system VBC adoption and break down why the road to VBC is neither linear, nor uniform.

Bloated delivery of industry truisms and corporate speak packaged as insight, constantly interrupted by the host’s pointless, agreeable interjections.
