Today I am joined by Nancy Agee. She is the President and CEO of the Carilion Clinic serving over a million people in Virginia and West Virginia. Nancy is also the former chair of the American Hospital Association.
She is renowned for her leadership and has been named repeatedly to the Top 25 Women in Healthcare. She has devoted her life to serving communities and improving healthcare accessibility, affordability, and outcomes in rural, underserved communities.
In our far-reaching conversation today, Nancy and I discuss the value of more female leadership in healthcare, the future of value-based care, how the pandemic expedited the need for behavioral health and telehealth, and our obligation to lift up our communities so that everyone has a chance at a long, healthy life.
