Access & Connectivity - Nate Beyor
/

This episode is in partnership with MIT Sloan Healthcare and BioInnovations Conference, an event that brings the healthcare ecosystem together. We sat with Nate Beyor, Managing Director & Partner at Boston Consulting Group, and discussed Digital Innovation, specifically data. For Nate, the key to all those digital innovations is the transformation of how we work with technology rather than adding tech. The biggest moves will be around automation and how we can “make steps go away” in processes to improve efficiency and experiences. With our current moves with data in healthcare, more interoperability, access, and connectivity will allow for further automation and improvements. Those algorithms will certainly be the less risky option for decision-making while ensuring we are empowering humans to make the final call.

“Build first. You’ll learn more by trying to do it than you will by spending a year debating what to do.“

Do The Right Thing - Assaad Sayah

This episode is in partnership with MIT Sloan Healthcare and BioInnovations Conference, an event that brings the healthcare ecosystem together. We sat with Dr. Assaad Sayah CEO of Cambridge Health Alliance and discussed his personal story, his leadership beliefs, and the “Value-Based Care”, topic of his panel at the conference. Value = Quality / Cost, this is the way to think about value-based care; it has to be of great quality with the best patient experience at a contained cost. Health equity in this context is key. We need first of all to be in the underserved communities and be thoughtful, and purposeful about addressing their needs to narrow equities gaps. For Assaad, leadership is about providing the space for people to do the work, it is about trust, clarity, transparency, and accountability. The ultimate success of a “care delivery system” is for it to disappear because we worked on education, prevention, and screening for the community to remain healthy.

“Provide the space for people to do the work“

MEET OUR GUEST Assaad Sayah Chief Executive Officer Cambridge Health Alliance.
