Healthcare is Hard: A Year of Learning From Industry Leaders

The Healthcare is Hard podcast exists for a single purpose – to help listeners get inside the minds of people who understand the complexities of the health system best, and are pushing it towards change and innovation. In the past year, guests have included 5 current or former CEOs of major health systems, 2 current or former CFOs and leaders of organizations like The Health Management Academy, The Institute for Healthcare Improvement, and Premier, Inc. that are working deep inside the industry to drive change and innovation.

In these far-reaching discussion with industry leaders, there were three recurring topics that stood out the most: the shift to value-based care, a growing focus on social determinants of health, and the impact of new entrants into the market.

Here are a few of the highlights from the first twelve months of Healthcare is Hard that we’ve cultivated for this look back. To hear more insightful comments like this and Keith Figlioli’s takeaway’s from his many conversations, listen to the one year anniversary episode of Healthcare is Hard: A Podcast for Insiders.
