Jeff Bennett, Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at Modivcare, is addressing and expanding supportive care services to provide transportation, personal care services, and remote patient monitoring. A lack of transportation leads to missed appointments and therapies, necessitating a coordinated approach to support vulnerable populations. Modivcare utilizes remote sensors and AI to enhance human engagement and coordination, and is designed to be both preventative and predictive, keeping patients healthy and out of the hospital. Jeff explains, "Modivcare works on behalf of health plans, states, and risk-based entities. We provide supportive care services that meet the needs and address the needs of patients. One of those services is transportation, so non-emergency medical transportation. We also provide personal care services, which support members with activities of daily living, like bathing, meal preparation, and such. And then finally, I lead the monitoring organization, which provides services to monitor members or patients at home so they can live and age at home on their own." "The biggest need, at the top, is that our members have health-related social needs or SDOH needs. They also are living with chronic conditions, so they need supportive care services that not only provides that core service -- so there's the obvious "I need a ride" or "if I press the button because I've fallen and I need 911 to be called if I need an ambulance or my caregiver or family member to come help me." But most importantly, the services that they need are providing an engagement service. Really, what we provide is a supportive care service that drives human connection through cutting-edge technology that drives continuous engagement. They always know that we're here, and we listen to them. We understand their needs and try to address those needs, which could be healthcare-related, social-related, or simply loneliness. So it spans that broad spectrum. And any one of our services, we're delivering that core service, but we're also driving engagement and listening for what else the member needs." #Modivcare #SDOH #SupportiveCareServices #MedAI #DigitalHealth #CareCoordination modivcare.com Download the transcript here

I sit down with Chris Hewish, Chief Strategy and Communications Officer at Xsolla, and Lee Jacobson, Senior Vice President of Business Development for Web3 at the same company. Together, they share how Xsolla is helping game developers adapt to the rapidly shifting digital economy by bridging blockchain innovation with proven business models in the gaming world. Xsolla is no stranger to transformation. With over two decades of experience and more than 2,500 games monetized through its platform, the company is once again stepping into a leadership role—this time at the intersection of Web3 and gaming commerce. One of the headline announcements we discuss is the launch of Xsolla ZK, a new blockchain-powered solution built on ZKsync technology. It's designed to scale Web3 experiences in a way that's secure, accessible, and meaningful for developers and players alike. We explore the "digital backpack" concept that sits at the core of this initiative. This isn't just a marketing buzzword—it's a player-owned inventory system that gives gamers real control over their in-game assets. Whether it's transferring gear between games or monetizing collectibles in ways previously restricted by walled gardens, this feature signals a shift toward deeper engagement and lasting value. Chris and Lee also offer a behind-the-scenes look at how direct-to-consumer models like Xsolla's Web Shop are unlocking new revenue channels for developers. With a fee structure significantly lower than traditional app stores and tools for customized experiences, these platforms are helping studios build stronger relationships with their communities while boosting margins. Security, transparency, and compliance remain central to the conversation, especially as blockchain adoption grows. We also touch on identity protection through zero-knowledge proofs and what interoperability might look like in a future where players and creators collaborate across an increasingly open ecosystem. From creator monetization to the evolution of in-game economies, this episode is a must-listen for anyone watching the convergence of Web3, blockchain, and gaming.

"We've moved from big bundles to à la carte chaos—there's a middle ground that offers real value and differentiation," says Chad Dunavant, EVP & Chief Strategy and Product Officer at CSG. Subscription-based services have reshaped the way businesses generate revenue and how consumers engage with brands. But has the explosion of subscriptions created more frustration than convenience? Chad joins Technology Reseller News to discuss the next evolution of subscriptions, telecom monetization, and customer engagement. The Subscription Economy: A Double-Edged Sword Subscription models provide businesses with predictable, recurring revenue streams, allowing them to scale efficiently. Consumers originally embraced subscriptions for their flexibility and ease of use. However, as Dunavant points out, many customers now find themselves drowning in multiple subscriptions, leading to frustration, bill confusion, and declining brand loyalty. From Bundles to Fragmentation – The shift from cable TV mega-bundles to fragmented streaming services has created consumer fatigue. Confusion & Lack of Transparency – Many customers are unaware of price increases or struggle to manage multiple services. Loyalty at Risk – Brands must balance monetization with clear value propositions or risk losing long-term customers. Telecoms & The New Opportunity in Subscription Monetization As telecom providers move beyond connectivity, they are uniquely positioned to bundle value-added services like streaming, cloud solutions, and enterprise tools. Dunavant highlights how telcos can use their scale to negotiate wholesale partnerships with digital service providers, creating discounted, frictionless experiences for consumers. Power of Wholesale Agreements – Telecom providers can secure better pricing for consumers by bundling third-party services with connectivity. Monetization Beyond Connectivity – New revenue streams include integrated streaming, cloud apps, and AI-driven services. Personalized Engagement & Billing – AI-powered billing solutions can proactively notify customers of changes, reducing call center frustration.

This week on Power House, Diego sits down with Dan Snyder, the CEO of Lower. This past year was a busy year for Lower amid their acquisition of both Neat Labs and Thrive Mortgage. Back in July of 2024, we welcomed Lower's Chief Strategy officer, Craig Montgomery, to give us the low-down on Lower's plan to become a top-five mortgage lender. Today, Dan continues that strategy conversation with Diego by discussing how the acquisition of Neat Labs is bringing Lower toward their 2025 goal of developing an end-to-end proprietary tech platform. He also reflects on the success of their Thrive Mortgage acquisition and discusses the challenge of integrating teams while also supporting your producers. Here's what you'll learn: The acquisition of Neat Labs is a strategic move to enhance Lower's technology stack. Lower aims to develop a proprietary tech stack rather than becoming a software provider. Cost efficiency is a key focus, and they expect to see significant reductions post-acquisition. Transparent leadership integration is essential for successful acquisitions and team cohesion. Effective communication can alleviate fears at all levels during the acquisition process. Coaching and support for producers are central to Lower's growth strategy.

Have you ever thought about creating a certification program but felt overwhelmed by where to start? What if you could turn your expertise into a structured, impactful learning journey for others? In this episode, I share my experience launching two certification programs: Chief Strategy and Operating Officers (CSOO) and Entrepreneurial Project Managers (EPM). I break down the process of designing and implementing certifications, focusing on starting with the end goal in mind. I introduce the Shuhari framework, inspired by martial arts, to simplify the process into three stages: SHU (learning), HA (practicing in context), and RI (mastery). This method helps structure certifications, whether they're short knowledge-based courses or in-depth skill-building programs. I also talk about the importance of hands-on application through capstone projects and share key lessons from my journey, including how I determined the length and structure of my programs.
