Good morning from Pharma and Biotech Daily, the podcast that gives you only what's important to hear in the Pharma and Biotech world. In today's episode, we have several news and insights to cover. Let's dive right in.## Restructuring Efforts at Beam and Top Biopharma ConferencesBiopharmaceutical company Beam is undergoing a restructuring effort, which will lead to the layoff of 100 employees. This move is aimed at prioritizing medicines for sickle cell and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency. The company will also trim its plans for other programs.In other news, the top biopharma conferences for 2024 are already being planned, with a few key meetings remaining this year. While these conferences are important for networking and knowledge sharing, let's focus on the developments within the industry itself.## Ultragenyx's Exciting Venture and Worldwide Clinical Trials' Human-Centered ApproachUltragenyx, a biopharmaceutical company, is planning to spin out a new company focused on Alzheimer's gene therapy. The CEO, Emil Kakkis, believes that the findings are too exciting to ignore and describes this venture as "high-risk, high-return." This move highlights the ongoing pursuit of innovative treatments in the biopharma industry.Meanwhile, global clinical trials provider Worldwide Clinical Trials is delivering excellence in the clinical trial experience by offering a human-centered approach that combines cutting-edge science. This approach emphasizes the importance of putting patients first.## Merck's Partnership and Challenges in Biotech IPOsMerck has formed a partnership with Daiichi Sankyo to invest in antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for cancer treatment. This partnership solidifies the potential of ADCs in reshaping cancer treatment.On the other hand, fewer biotech companies are going public after a record run. Some companies have seen their shares lose value on the stock exchange, indicating that the public market may be becoming more selective in its support of biotech companies.## Insights in the Medtech Industry and Challenges for Biotech CompaniesMoving on to the medtech industry, Intuitive Surgical's Q3 sales missed estimates due to factors such as robot leasing and decreased demand in China. However, the company's overall procedure growth exceeded market expectations.The CEO of Advamed has warned Congress about potential supply shortages caused by regulations on ethylene oxide (ETO) and per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). This highlights the need for changes to regulatory proposals to ensure a steady supply of medical devices.## Addressing Affordability of Insulin and Telehealth in the Defense SectorGoodRx and Sanofi have partnered to make insulin more affordable. This partnership aims to address the rising cost of insulin, which has led many patients to ration their supply or go without. However, there are still concerns about high drug prices that need to be addressed.Amwell and Leidos have scored a defense contract worth up to $180 million, highlighting the growing role of telehealth in the defense sector. As more healthcare services are being provided remotely, telehealth is playing a crucial role.## Physician Turnover and Healthcare Worker StrikesA study has found that physician turnover is driven by a desire for increased flexibility. This highlights the need for healthcare organizations to prioritize work-life balance and offer more flexible schedules to retain physicians.Over 1,200 nurses in Pittsburgh have authorized a potential strike at Allegheny General Hospital amid ongoing contract negotiations. This is just one example of healthcare worker strikes occurring across the country, driven by concerns over working conditions, staffing levels, and wages.## Challenges in the Biotech Market and Strategies for Combating BurnoutThe biotech market continues to face challenges, with several gene therapy or editing companies laying off employees this year.

Os Rockefeller é uma família industrial, política e bancária americana com origem na região da Renânia, Alemanha. No início do século 17, por volta de 1723, um ramo da família migrou para a Filadélfia, especificamente para a província da Pensilvânia nos Estados Unidos e logo se tornou proprietário de uma plantação e de outras terras em Somerville e Amwell, em Nova Jersey. A grande fortuna e o império que construíram foram utilizados pelos Rockefellers para se manter influente tanto na política quanto na economia. Banqueiros, Secretária de Governos, Governadores de Estado, Senadores e Vice-presidência dos EUA, foram todos cargos ocupados por algum membro da família que também atuava com filantropia. Nelson Rockefeller, além de empresário, serviu também como vice-presidente do partido republicano ao Presidente Gerald Ford. Além de ser conhecido pela sua vida política e suas constantes traições em seu primeiro casamento, ele era famoso pela farta coleção de arte que tinha. Do seu primeiro casamento, eles tiveram cinco filhos e Michael Rockefeller, caçula do casal junto com sua irmã gêmea Mary. No episódio de hoje, os investigadores Andrei Fernandes, Gabi Larocca e Jey Carrillo falarão sobre o misterioso desaparecimento e consequente morte de Michael, uma figura que tinha tudo para carregar o legado da família, mas foi perdido na história, causando especulação que envolve canibalismo e morte até os dias de hoje.

The stunning achievements of chatGPT (along with the enormous work that remains to be done) raise the questions of how generative AI will change industries and interactions. As the term "generative AI" indicates, these technologies use AI to communicate, not to do predictive analytics or alter events. Thus, according to Murray Brozinsky, Chief Strategy Officer at Amwell, generative AI will automate peripheral aspects of communication rather than affect health care directly. In this video, Brozinsky and John Lynn undertake a far-ranging examination of the potential of chatGPT and similar technologies. Brozinsky expects it to take over a lot of triaging. This addresses the urgent question a person has when calling about her chest pain or when holding a crying baby. Is it necessary to come in for a visit?

Research found that 84% of sales reps achieve their quotas when their employer incorporates a best-in-class sales enablement strategy. So what does it actually take to build an enablement strategy? Here to discuss this topic is Kelly Lewis, the vice president of revenue enablement here at Highspot. Shawnna Sumaoang: Hi and welcome to the Win Win Podcast. I'm your host, Shawnna Sumaoang. Join us as we dive into changing trends in the workplace and how to navigate them successfully. Thanks for joining, Kelly! I'd love for you to tell us about yourself, your background, and your role here at Highspot. Kelly Lewis: Thank you so much for having me, I am excited to be here. As you mentioned, my name is Kelly Lewis, Vice President of Revenue Enablement, here at Highspot. I actually have a little bit of a non-traditional background. I spent most of my career, almost 15 years, in the field before moving into enablement. I spent time as a sales rep and as a sales leader, really understanding what it’s like to carry a bag. I saw an opportunity for enablement at my last company, Amwell, which is a high-tech telehealth organization, and established the enablement practice there from the ground up. I learned a lot by doing that. A lot of what you’re going to hear is that I’m coming to this conversation pretty humbly and that I’m still learning a ton from organizations like Sales Enablement PRO, as well as our amazing customers, and, of course, my amazing team and my amazing peers in L&D. A lot of what you’re going to hear comes from that sales leader background with that enablement spin, as I’ve learned over the last few years. SS: Well, we’re excited to have you here, Kelly, and I have to say you are a fantastic enablement partner, and I get to speak from experience. KL: Thank you. SS: Now, from a revenue perspective, I’d love to understand from you, what should leaders keep in mind when building an enablement strategy that is aligned to business drive results. KL: I think we all know this, but you have to switch from being reactive to that really proactive mindset. That’s easier said than done. Part of it is that the asks don’t stop coming. How I look at it is you have to sit back and have some of those really hard conversations with your collaborators, whether those are your stakeholders or the individuals you work with very closely like marketing or rev ops, and understand what is actually going to move the needle. We always look at it from a rep productivity standpoint, we’re always trying to think about what we can do to get our reps more productive. Is that skill? Is that process? Is that messaging? Where do we need to focus? By doing that, and having those hard conversations upfront, we’re able to align and then commit to what we want to do, and then make sure we actually stay on course versus veering off, which is so easy to do. I’ve been there, I’ve done it, but being able to really say hey, we agreed to this at the beginning of the quarter, and let’s see it through. We have a lot of those conversations here. Do we also ask if what we’re doing here aligned with the bigger initiatives of the company are the things that we’re focused on here, the same things that our CEO is focused on? SS: I think that is fantastic advice. Kelly, given the current economic climate, can you share why aligning your enablement strategy with revenue goals is critical? KL: Absolutely. I think we’ve all heard the term ‘random acts of enablement' and we all know that enablement, at one time or another in your organization, has probably tried to do too much. When you align your goals to revenue goals, and when you have the same goal, it’s easy to make sure that you’re having the same conversation and that you don’t swerve from your original plan. What I was saying before is what you’re doing is going to move the needle. The current economic climate, it’s shifting all the time, and so we proactively asked at the beginning of a quarter, if something changes significantly in the economy in the next 90 days, does this change our strategy, and if everyone in the room can say, not too much, then we feel like we’re doing the right thing. That’s how we’ve been handling at least our Q1 strategy as we look at it. SS: I think that’s a really agile approach to enablement. Now, when it comes to setting goals, what are some of your best practices for identifying the right goals that are going to help you drive the outcomes that you want to achieve through your enablement strategy? KL: First off, it starts with realistic goals. I think it’s really easy for enablement professionals or sales leaders to get in a room and assume that a change can happen overnight. When you look at strategic enablement and how you’re using enablement, one of the things that we consider as a core practice of how we do strategic enablement at Highspot is understanding how much change are we asking the reps to do and what is the exact call to action we’re going to ask them to do. We actually use a proficiency model here at Highspot that has four levels and we will be really clear with everyone in the room that, hey, we’re trying to get reps from a level one to a level two. For right now, we’re focused on getting the majority of our reps, we call our core reps, from level three to level four, depending on where they are in that proficiency model. I think setting expectations on where your reps are today, and where you want them to be by the end of a quarter, six months from now, really helps people understand that change does take time, it’s not going to happen overnight and it lets you set what the leading indicators are going to be over time, what is going to show that we’re moving the needle. SS: Those are some really fantastic best practices. Now, Kelly, as I had mentioned, I find you to be an absolutely fantastic and collaborative enablement partner. I know that to you as an enablement leader, creating strong cross-functional relationships and coordination is a priority for you. How does cross-functional collaboration influence how you bring your enablement strategy to life? KL: I greatly appreciate that. My team really has a strong goal of having cross-functional coordination, but I also think we have amazing partners to work with. As everyone knows, enablement sits right in the middle of revenue teams, as well as marketing. We’re always trying to play that balance of the goals that marketing has, and making sure we’re translating that conversation into our sellers and what they need. In order to do that, you have to speak their language. As I said earlier, it’s a lot about translating and making sure that you understand the different goals and have empathy for the different teams you’re working with. I find that I and my team spend just as much time creating a strategy as we do listening. A lot of what we do is listen to our stakeholders, or listen to our collaborators, on what their goals are and what they’re trying to drive. That is why it is really important. If you don’t understand why you won’t be able to translate it and make sure you create that bridge. We at Highspot actually have a concept here that we call a bridge meeting, and that is when marketing has an idea, a rev ops team has an idea, or even one of our stakeholders has an idea that they want to come to enablement with and they want to propose that we do something differently or challenge ourselves in a new way. During that bridge meeting, we ask a lot of those ‘why' questions to make sure that we fully understand what it is they want us to roll out, and how we will do that to make the biggest impact. I will say, being a former seller and on that side of the house, it’s really clear when your leadership isn’t aligned. You feel it when marketing and sales leaders aren’t talking. You feel it when sales leadership and enablement aren’t talking. It’s not hidden, I think being enablement professionals, sometimes we don’t know what the frontline is seeing, but they feel it. It’s super important that regardless of the decision you make on what the enablement strategy is going to be that everyone in the room aligns and agrees. One thing we do here at Highspot is we actually have approval meetings where we get in a room and we say this is the strategy, does everyone agree? We don’t leave until everyone’s agreed and then based on that we all, despite what happens within the quarter, continue to align to that initial strategy because we all agreed, and we all want to show a single one-team approach to our field. SS: I love that. What advice do you have for how you go about driving the adoption of the strategy and getting buy-in from key stakeholders? KL: It’s all about the frontline manager. We’ve actually been making a big shift over the last six months that are going to continue as we head into the next fiscal year, thinking about how we empower our frontline managers. They are so critical to enablement's success. A frontline individual, a rep, is not going to make a change unless they feel like it’s supported by their manager, and so we have shifted our approach to drive almost everything we’re doing through the manager. That looks like empowering the manager with coaching, so we make coaching plays where we actually guide the manager to the steps, here’s the conversation you need to have, here are the objections as a manager that you are probably going to get, here’s how you handle those objections. We also do life coaching. We’ll pull up Gong calls, or we’ll pull up our pre-call planners in a group setting, and we’ll have different managers look at those guides and calls and talk with each other about how they would coach, how would they score these, what feedback would they give, and I think by giving them a safe space to practice their coaching, they’re set up for success. It’s really about getting managers bought in early and then making sure they have everything they need to be successful when it comes to actually rolling that out. We consider those frontline managers to be partners in crime. SS: I love that. Now, I love your advice on this. How can teams keep kind of the big picture of the strategy and how it aligns with company goals in mind when they’re also juggling executing the plan throughout the year? KL: It’s really hard, and we struggle with it too. I think how we do that is we create some agility in our plan. I talked a lot at the beginning of this podcast, about how we have a quarterly strategy where we bring everyone together and we get alignment, but what I didn’t talk about was we leave some wiggle room. We are executing, things do change, and things come up. We need to make sure that we have that built into what we’re creating in our strategy. Depending on the quarter, we like to leave up anywhere from 20 to 40% so that we have that agility and ability to adjust as needed and take some input in the quarter. It’s not a ton, but it gives us that wiggle room to make sure that we’re continuing to align with the company goals and that we can be agile enough to hear what the field is struggling with and adapt. We also have this concept of available versus accountable. I think this is unique to Highspot, but it is this concept of during any given quarter, we give reps two or three things that we want them to change in behaviors. We’re really concise on what these calls to action are, and those are our accountable themes. We also do a lot of enablement that isn’t accountable, we’re not going to inspect it, we’re not necessarily going to coach it, we’re not going to hold people accountable to it. Those things we call available. Available things are like a play that we create that might help someone given a certain situation that might be industry-specific, but we’re not doing a ton of live enablement around it, we’re definitely not certifying it, we might just promote it via newsletter. Having this concept of available versus accountable helps us have really strong conversations with our stakeholders and our collaborators because they know when we say it’s accountable, they know we’re taking it really seriously and we’re going to create coaching programs. When they know it’s available, we’re all in agreement that hey, we’re not going to look at the scorecard for the progress or how many reps have viewed this potential play. Instead, we’re going to see how it does. We might make it accountable next quarter, it might just be available in the current quarter. This concept of available versus accountable has really translated into a language we all align on and make sure everyone feels really comfortable with our approach. SS: I have to say it has worked really well for us here at Highspot. Kelly, I am loving this conversation. I have two remaining questions for you. I don’t think there’s going to be any kind of surprise to these questions because I think we’re all trying to understand in the coming year, how we drive more impact. This is especially true for enablement. What are some of your best practices for correlating your enablement efforts with revenue impact, and how have you actually leveraged Highspot to help with this? KL: Such a hard question, in that it is hard for enablement professionals to always show their impact. It is not as straightforward as it is in other roles, and so we spend a lot of time thinking about this, frankly, not only as a company but as an enablement team at an enablement company. We always think about how we’re influencing revenue, and how we’re influencing business outcomes. We think of it a couple of ways. First is sales productivity, and then it’s consistent execution and participation rate. From sales, productivity is the timing of the things that we’re rolling out aligned to the timing of increases in sales productivity. We hope, and that’s the goal, and so we look at that reporting. We also look at consistent execution. This is harder to look at, we use tools like Gong, and we are partners with Groove, so we look at our email consistency, to see are the reps taking the enablement and applying it and if are they doing it in a consistent fashion. Then we look at the participation rates of those two. Are our core performers in the category of consistent execution, and do they have high sales productivity? At Highspot we use a couple of different ways to look at leading indicators. Leading indicators are huge for my team. Do we look at things like did people take the training? So we’ll jump into Highspot and see, did they take the course? Then, we will look at if they reviewed the sales play. This is super important. If they’re not reading the sales play, they’re definitely not going to make the action. It’s a huge leading indicator for us, how much time they are spending on the sales play. Then, are managers looking at the coaching play? For every sales play that is accountable, using the term I mentioned before, we also create a coaching play. Is the manager looking at that coaching play? Do they know how to coach to whatever we’re trying to drive? We then look at the action they’re taking. Are they engaging with our customers in the correct way? We use Highspot to understand if they are pitching the content that is part of this campaign or this strategy, and then are our customers and our prospects engaging with that content. Those are really key indicators that help us show our influence and impact in a really easy way. Definitely helps those business reviews that I know are so hard to put together, but just being able to take some screenshots from Highspot really helps that conversation. SS: I love that. Last question for you, Kelly, as we get underway with 2023, what are some of the top trends that you think enablement leaders should be paying attention to this year, and how are you leveraging Highspot to help address some of those? KL: Absolutely. I said it before, managers are your unlock. We are spending a lot of time thinking about manager coaching enablement. We’re actually going to be putting on a leadership summit for all of our leaders here at the end of February that’s going to be focused on coaching. What does good coaching look like, and how can you apply that to your day-to-day as a go-to-market leader? I think the next trend we’re going to see and things that we’re leveraging at Highspot is thinking through how we tackle formal training. Formal training can be put into different buckets and we’re trying to rethink what formal training looks like to make it feel light. My partner in crime, Annie Lizenbergs, in our L&D department always talks about how we make coursework feel light and engaging so that reps know that we’re being really efficient with our time. We’re going to be rethinking a lot about what our formal coursework looks like to make it feel light. The next is we’re going to have a big focus on our core performers. A lot of times your stakeholders are going to come to you with information and feedback about your low performers. That’s really normal. They tend to be the loudest, and they tend to spin up sales leaders because sales leaders want them successful. We’ve created a slide and we use it in almost every meeting where we say, hey, this program is going to be focused on the core performers. These are the core performers that we’re trying to make top performers, and we’re going to use our top performers to show our core performers what good looks like. We’re going to use our top performers to champion this. We’re going to use our top performers to help us teach. Those top performers are going to get better because when you teach something, you get better at it. Our core performers are going to learn from those top performers. That way, we’re not focused on those low performers, who will hopefully get something out of the core performer training, but we’re really leaving those lower performers up to managers to work with and coach. Then, I would say, the last thing that we’re changing this year is one SKO a year is not enough. You need solid enablement moments throughout the year, that really ensure that your reps are getting the reinforcement, and are taken out of the field in a way that separates them from the busyness and lets them really focus on learning. We started this last year, and we’re going to continue it this year. We call it camp momentum in the summer, but we’re going to have multiple touchpoints throughout the year, one just with managers and three with all go-to-market teams where we make sure that there’s set aside learning time for everyone to learn to stop the busyness to stop the calls and to really focus on the big initiatives that we’re trying to drive and then of course, giving them a safe space to practice. SS: I love those trends. Thank you, Kelly, so much for joining us today. KL: Absolutely. Happy to be here. SS: Thank you for listening to this episode of the Win Win podcast. Be sure to tune in next time for more insights on how you can maximize enablement success with Highspot.

Friends, This is one of a series of interviews I conducted to better understand the role of platforms in healthcare delivery. Our guest today, Dr. Roy Schoenberg, is one of ...
One of the silver linings of the pandemic has, in fact, been, the expansion of telehealth services and virtual care delivery. The pandemic has also accelerated the healthcare industry's transition from fee-for-service to value-based care. The continued growth of telehealth is fueled by providing incentives for care delivery in the lowest cost settings, identifying and interacting with highest-risk individuals before disease onset, managing care teams with more efficient workflows, and taking advantage of digital remote technologies. Virtual care is an easy and cost-effective path to achieve value-based care, thereby improving health outcomes and patient satisfaction across a broader population of patients. Our guest this week, is Dr. Carrie Nelson, the Chief Medical Officer for Amwell, a leading digital care and telemedicine company. Dr. Nelson is a seasoned physician leader committed to healthcare transformation. She has demonstrated success in innovation and change management, physician engagement, solution development and deployment, value-based care, managing and coaching other leaders and delivering results. Before joining Amwell as Chief Medical Officer and President of their Amwell Medical Group, she served as the Senior Vice President and CMO for Population Health and Health Outcomes at Advocate Aurora Health. She also served as the Chief Clinical Officer for Advocate Physician Partners, a benchmark organization known internationally for delivering value-based care in collaboration with about 5000 employed and independent physician practices. With more than 28 years' experience as a Family Medicine provider, Dr. Nelson is an innovative physician leader with a proven track in quality improvement, patient safety and population health. Bookmarks: 01:30 The silver lining of the pandemic is the expansion of telehealth services/virtual care delivery and the acceleration to value-based care. 02:15 Introduction to Dr. Carrie Nelson, the Chief Medical Officer for Amwell, a leading digital care and telemedicine company. 05:00 Dr. Nelson's recent career transition from Population Health leadership at Advocate Aurora Health to a national leadership role in digital transformation and virtual care enablement. 06:00 A career in driving healthcare transformation in population health, quality, and patient safety. 06:30 The influence of “Crossing the Quality Chasm” and “To Err is Human” on awakening a healthcare transformation. 07:00 The pace of change across the country is still insufficient due to over-dependence on fee-for-service. 08:00 The consequences of poor disease control during the pandemic as a result of ineffective healthcare delivery. 08:30 The multifactorial limitations in the capacity for healthcare systems to change (e.g. culture, failure to adapt to technology) 09:00 Strong technology partnerships needed to prevent health systems from regressing back to their pre-pandemic care delivery model. 09:30 Workforce burnout in healthcare prevents sufficient time to think about system transformation. 10:30 Telehealth improves patient health, reduces overall costs of care, and improves health equity in medically underserved communities. 11:00 The plunge of telemedicine usage since the peak of the pandemic. 12:00 “During the pandemic, we largely moved brick and mortar care to online. If that is all we ever achieve, we will have fallen far short of the potential for a technologically-enabled model.” 12:30 Shawn Griffin (President and CEO of URAC) and his analogy of COVID-19 telehealth deployment to only “watching the dancing baby online” when launching the Internet. 13:00 Dr. Nelson discusses Amazon Care's recent departure from telehealth and itsrecent acquisition of OneMedical. 13:30 Wider uses cases for telehealth and recent trends in claims activity. 14:30 Inserting new tools into the virtual visit creates healthcare transformation th...
We've talked extensively on this podcast about how COVID ushered in a period of rapid adoption of telemedicine. According to McKinsey, we went from around 11% of people using telehealth to around 46% during the pandemic. Few companies in the world were better poised to capitalize on this moment than Amwell. What's so interesting about Amwell is that they weren't created to meet this moment. They have been patiently and persistently ringing the telemedicine bell since 2006. Back then, seeing your doctor over your computer seemed like a pipe dream, or worse, some dystopian future. Now, well, things look a bit different. Building the infrastructure to deliver healthcare virtually is an idea whose time has come. And Amwell's persistence has made them a world leader in the market. Now, Amwell is expanding the definition of virtual care. Last year they acquired StartUp Health portfolio company Conversa Health, which uses chatbot functionality to automate care in between visits to improve efficiency and outcomes. This episode of the podcast is pulled from a Fireside Chat where we sat down with Roy Schoenberg, MD, CEO and Co-founder of Amwell, and Murray Brozinsky, CEO of Conversa Health. The chat, which was moderated by Steven Krein, CEO and Co-founder of StartUp Health, pulls back the curtain on how these two companies came together, the lessons learned from the process, and what it all means for the future of virtual care. Roy and Murray are a wealth of wisdom and experience when it comes to digital health, so it was a powerful conversation. Hope you enjoy.

Let's talk about provider organizations and telehealth. It's just too common a refrain amongst provider organizations who say some combination of: Our patients and/or clinicians don't like telehealth. Telehealth is too expensive for us to do ... unless maybe we should charge facility fees for telehealth visits. Telehealth is risky to invest in because as soon as payers start paying less than 65% of in-person visits, we're gonna drop it anyway. These things are said despite the overwhelming popularity of telehealth in almost any large-scale survey that you'll find. It seems like largely the only entities reporting that patients and clinicians don't like telehealth are provider organizations who haven't adequately invested in telehealth at the systematic/strategic level. Therefore, the only thing their anecdotal evidence about telehealth really seems to show is the negative impact of phoning it in—which is no one wanting to phone in (pun unintentional but, you have to admit, kind of great). All of this is going on with an interesting backdrop, as reported by Chartis Group (and shared by Olivia Webb in her Substack the other day): Health systems see telehealth as a major competitor—82% of health systems surveyed reported that telehealth companies like Teladoc or Amwell are competitors. This is second only to the percentage of surveyed health systems that named other health systems as competitors. John Singer wrote on Twitter the other day, “Any leader who thinks their business is immune to the wild dynamism of our time is unlikely to last long.” So apropos. Love it. I said this on a podcast last December (and you can go back and check the tape if you want to), and I'm even more convinced of it right now: Telehealth is inexorable, and it's already showing its disruptive potential. But let me point out something here. Who is leaning in hard to telehealth? I'm gonna make a broad-stroke statement here—so take it for what it's worth—but let me hypothesize that who is leaning in hard to telehealth and virtual healthcare are telehealth and virtual healthcare companies. Many of them are adding in-person care because billing codes, but their DNA is digital. So, most of the so-called “hybrid” companies out there are digital companies with in-person clinics that they've added—not ye old in-person clinic that added a digital service line. So, I say all this to say I wanted to talk to a traditional sort of provider organization. I wanted to talk to an in-person provider organization who is conceiving of telehealth not as a threat but as a new opportunity to provide ancillary services. One who is going “hybrid” but from the other direction—traditional in-person to digital instead of digital to in-person. Further, I wanted to talk to the CFO of one of these places. I thought the CFO would be the one to get the real scoop from because it's all about the business model, baby. Let me underline the business model point with a quote from a Substack entitled “I wasted $40k on a fantastic startup idea.” And here's the quote: “It had been … a working assumption of mine ... that if you could improve the health of … patients then, you know, [someone] would pay for that.” Yeah. No, they won't. Unless … business model. My guest in this healthcare podcast, Ali Ucar, is the CFO of Care Solutions Group. They provide mobile physician services to seniors. As they expanded their mobile physician service, they also looked at additional ancillary opportunities. Those ancillary opportunities all involve telehealth. Right now, Ali Ucar's company is running two telehealth programs. One of them is basically tele-urgent care. The second one is using telehealth for care transitions including some care coordination. They transition patients back to the home care setting as safely as possible. Let me say that again in business model speak: Discharged patients don't wind up in the ER and/or readmitted within 30 days. So, let's hear about telehealth from the vantage point of a CFO. How do organizations who realize that telehealth is essential for future viability, how do they make it financially viable today? Ali Ucar listed out a stepwise approach to creating a sustainable business model that takes advantage of telehealth. Here's the first thing: Figure out what you're trying to do on behalf of patients … please. For example, what opportunities are you trying to give your team or customers to improve patient care or equity in care? That's where it really should start. The next step, then, is figuring out how you're gonna get paid sustainably. There are two pieces to that. Maybe you can get paid directly, if at all possible. The most common way to do this, which is also the one I like the least because it echoes with the ghosts of paying for volume, is the whole “get yourself a code and bill FFS” for your activities. Maybe there's a value-based or risk-based contract that you can get where you're taking care of a patient population at a certain stage in their care journey. Good luck with that, and I say this as a finger wag to plan sponsors/employers/carriers who, only in a slim majority of cases, offer a way for providers to get paid for the value they create. Please do better. OK … moving along in our ways to get paid list besides trying to figure out how to get paid directly vis-à-vis FFS or in some kind of risk-based way, another thing that you can do is to ascertain how another stakeholder in the care continuum is going to directly benefit from what you're doing. Make them your customer and then bill them. You can figure out the quality programs that they're a part of and how much revenue is at stake, then take a piece of that. Maybe you can charge them to do something because they could get direct reimbursement for what you're doing, and then you take a piece of that. There's a second part to the business model here besides the revenue generation part, and oddly, despite its apparent, I don't know, seeming straightforwardness, it's so often relegated to the world of the afterthought. After constructing the revenue side of the business model, you gotta get operational and figure out how you're going to switch up your workflows and your processes and your roles and responsibilities, your strategy or infrastructure ... ascertain how you're doing business has to change to accommodate the new service offerings. Listen to the shows with Liliana Petrova (EP357) and Christian Milaster (EP320) for many examples of healthcare businesses kind of weirdly disregarding this last part here. If I had to pick one predominant reason why, first of all, telehealth at some provider organizations is getting a bad rap but also why doctors are suffering under the weight of their administrative burden (and other clinicians as well, of course), it's this, right here. If leadership in an organization doesn't stop and pick apart their operational model when their revenue model changes, you get a suboptimal and misaligned operational model. I feel like there's three shelves of books on this topic in most public libraries, so I won't belabor it here.

Ali Ucar is CFO of Care Solutions Group with a diverse background in finance, operations, and strategic planning. Ali has been instrumental in designing and implementing programs targeted at reducing costs to insurance companies, hospitals, and nursing homes. Ali played the lead role in the acquisition and integration of a distressed, near-bankrupt mobile physician practice in 2015. The integration included implementation of operating and restructuring initiatives to improve competitive positioning and financial performance. As part of the mobile clinician service and to improve access to care while minimizing the financial impact of the pandemic, Ali launched the statewide telehealth program in 2020. Additionally, to address the needs of a chronically ill and high-risk patient population, Ali has assisted in the launch of the Transitional and Chronic Care Management Programs to assist families and patients with the required coordination of care in the home. Providing this connectivity to a dedicated, single-contact point provided through a registered nurse has been a major factor in reducing hospitalizations, readmissions, and emergency room visits. Ali also has secured contracts with commercial insurance companies for implementation of Chronic Care Management programs as well as program outreach initiatives targeted at engaging and communicating with moderate- to high-risk members. His work also includes project management expertise gained while leading projects with a chain of skilled nursing facilities targeted at managing the needs of discharged patients and for projects initiated by Blue Cross Blue Shield, Ford Motor Company, and multiple start-ups.

Our guest this week is telemedicine pioneer Roy Schoenberg, MD, MPH, the Co-CEO and President of Amwell. COVID was an absolute game changer for telemedicine adoption, and Amwell was right there to seize the momentum. But before COVID, Dr. Schoenberg and his team labored for 14 years trying to bring the dream of telemedicine to reality. They learned a lot along the way, and we'll hear some of those lessons in this conversation between Roy and Unity Stoakes, StartUp Health's President and Co-founder. The chat was held on stage at the StartUp Health Festival, which occurred at ViVE in Miami Beach in March 2022. You'll hear Dr. Schoenberg's philosophy on health automation – why that shouldn't be a dirty word – and a bit on why they acquired Conversa Health, a StartUp Health portfolio company that made its name building healthcare chatbots. Dr. Schoenberg also delivers some hard-won wisdom to today's healthcare entrepreneurs, like the fact that persistence is the name of the game. If you want to change health, he says, you have to be ready for the long fight.
