When Russian forces invaded Ukraine earlier this year, Dr. Michael Fine was outraged—like a lot of Americans.  So he traveled to see first-hand the human cost of this war. Dr. Michael Fine serves as the Chief Health Strategist for the city of Central Falls, R.I. and as a family physician with a practice in Rhode Island.  He is the author of several books, including “Health Care Revolt: How to Organize, Build a Health Care System, and Resuscitate Democracy—All at the Same Time,” published in 2018, “Abundance,” a novel about love, war and redemption, based on his experience as a volunteer during the Liberian Civil War, published in 2019, “Rhode Island Stories,” published in 2021, among others.  Dr. Fine's career as both a family physician and manager in the field of healthcare has been devoted to healthcare reform and the care of underserved populations. Before his confirmation as Director of Health, Dr. Fine was the Medical Program Director at the Rhode Island Department of Corrections, with a healthcare unit serving 20,000 people a year and a staff of over 85 physicians, psychiatrists, mental health workers, nurses, and other health professionals. He was a founder and Managing Director of HealthAccessRI, the nation's first statewide direct primary care organization, which made prepaid primary care available to people without employer-provided health insurance. Dr. Fine founded the Scituate Health Alliance, a community-based, population-focused non-profit organization, which made Scituate the first community in the United States to provide primary medical and dental care to all town residents.  He also convened and facilitated the Primary Care Leadership Council, a statewide organization that represented 75 percent of Rhode Island's primary care physicians and practices.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today I am joined by my good friend, Melanie Sutherland. Melanie is a Pelvic Health Physiotherapist, an entrepreneur, a mother, and an incredible advocate of women's health.   And what we're talking about today are the things that we wish women knew before they had a baby to optimize their health and optimize their capacity to execute in the world on the other side of motherhood. Traditionally, one of the biggest challenges in healthcare — and especially for those of us who are passionate about upstream preventative health — is that we've been trained by a healthcare system to be reactionary about health. We wait until the problem arises to deal with it. And when it comes to the changes that take place in a woman's body in that prenatal phase and how it influences health on the other side, there are some key elements that you need to be aware of in order to maximize that next phase of life. What is it that every woman needs to know before they have their baby so that their body is in the best possible shape on the other side? This is what Melanie and I are delving into today. This is a powerful and important conversation and I am excited for you to have the opportunity to join in and meet Melanie and hear all of her incredible insights!   Key Takeaways: [1:00] About today's episode!

This podcast, the second in a two-part series, continues to explore the concept of "Chief Health Strategist" as a way to address the most pressing public health issues and advance population health activities. This discussion continues the conversation on moving from concept into practice, as well as how to apply ASTHO’s three pillars for population health improvement to support clinical to community connections, improve health equity and the social determinants of health, and utilize public health informatics. Mary Ann Cooney offers examples of this model already at work and tells you where you can get help if you want to move forward in your state.   GUEST: Mary Ann Cooney, Chief, Center for Population Health Strategies, ASTHO   RESOURCES: The High Achieving Governmental Health Department in 2020 as the Community Chief Health Strategist - http://www.resolv.org/site-healthleadershipforum/files/2014/05/The-High-Achieving-Governmental-Health-Department-as-the-Chief-Health-Strategist-by-2020-Final1.pdf ASTHO Center for Population Health Strategies - http://www.astho.org/Programs/Clinical-to-Community-Connections/ASTHO-CPHS-Overview_FINAL/ Trust for America’s Health – www.tfah.org

The concept of "Chief Health Strategist" allows public health leaders to serve as a chief architect across their jurisdiction and align health systems transformation and population health activities. Chief health strategists ensure that population health activities are targeting community health needs and build effective working relationships with healthcare partners and other sectors that affect the social determinants of health. This podcast is the first in a two-part series, and it will explore how the concept is defined, how it works, and how public health leaders can rethink their approach to be effective in their communities.   GUEST: John Auerbach, President and CEO, Trust for America’s Health   RESOURCES: The High Achieving Governmental Health Department in 2020 as the Community Chief Health Strategist - http://www.resolv.org/site-healthleadershipforum/files/2014/05/The-High-Achieving-Governmental-Health-Department-as-the-Chief-Health-Strategist-by-2020-Final1.pdf ASTHO Center for Population Health Strategies - http://www.astho.org/Programs/Clinical-to-Community-Connections/ASTHO-CPHS-Overview_FINAL/ Trust for America’s Health – www.tfah.org

My guest today is Dr. Roni Zeiger – a physician turned entrepreneur who was the former Chief Health Strategist at Google.  Currently, he is the co-founder and CEO of Smart Patients – an online community where patients and their families learn from each other. Roni has been a leading voice for patients having shared his views across prominent stages like TEDMED. On today’s episode, we get up close and personal where Roni shares his journey from a practicing doctor to leading the charge in health at Google. We discuss the importance of rapid experimentation and willingness to fail along the way.  Roni also shares key intrapreneurial lessons learned from his tenure with Google, including those associated with Google Flu Trends and Personal Health Record; and how that ultimately helped shape his networked community model for his current venture, Smart Patients. All this and more on today’s episode. Now, That’s Unusual. About Dr. Roni Zeiger Roni Zeiger, MD, MS, is the former Chief Health Strategist at Google. He is also the co-founder and CEO of Smart Patients, an online community platform where patients and families affected by a variety of illnesses can learn from each other’s knowledge and experiences. Roni earned his M.D. at Stanford University and completed his internal medicine residency at the University of California, San Francisco. He has served as a clinical instructor of medicine at Stanford University School of Medicine and received a master’s degree in biomedical informatics from Stanford. Roni is also a Community Staff Physician for urgent care patients at Santa Clara Valley Medical Center. Key Interview Takeaways Find the intersection of what you do best and what you care most about, and do that. There are no rules when it comes to careers; if you are creative and lucky enough, you can figure out how to do what you love for a living. Innovations happen at the intersections of industries. Zeiger’s specialty came from thinking about how consumer technology could be applied to medicine. Get comfortable operating in the face of uncertainty. Zeiger’s experience at Google coupled with his background in medicine have taught him that we are always learning and may never get the answer to a difficult problem exactly right. If you want to be a successful entrepreneur, the best way to start is through intrapreneurship. The culture at Google encouraged every employee to innovate and start new business entities, and Zeiger credits this practice with giving him the courage to develop Smart Patients. Disruption and transformation will come from both existing players within the health care industry (i.e.: Pfizer) and future competition from outsiders (i.e.: Google). The players have different core competencies, different risk tolerances, and different degrees of willingness to experiment. Peer-to-peer support is an underutilized resource in health care. Smart Patients seeks to connect patients and families who are going through similar things as they build an online community and support system. Offering peer support empowers patients. Asking patients what they know results in the “best ever patient advisory board,” and doctors have begun to prescribe peer support as part of a treatment plan. Because humanity is a “connected mess,” our most important attributes need to be defined by others. What each of us is individually doesn’t matter nearly as much as how we’re connected to each other.
