In this episode of Quality Talks with Peggy O'Kane, Peggy welcomes Dr. Troyen Brennan, adjunct professor at the Harvard School of Public Health, former Chief Medical Officer at CVS Health and Aetna, and author of Wonderful and Broken.With decades of experience spanning academic medicine, hospital administration and retail health care, Troy brings candor and clarity to the challenges facing American health care and the promise of primary care reform.Troy's insights are both sobering and hopeful, pointing to a future where coordinated, data-driven primary care can finally fulfill its promise.Highlights:·Diagnosing a System Under Pressure: The limits of fee-for-service payment and why employer-sponsored insurance is reaching a breaking point.Building the Foundation for Better Care: The critical role of primary care in medicine's value-based future.Spotlighting Innovation Across the Map: Real-world examples of successful primary care transformation, including Catalyst Health in Texas and Southcentral Foundation in Alaska.Reimagining Accreditation for Modern Needs: Reflections on NCQA's Patient-Centered Medical Home and future redesigns.Clearing the Policy Bottleneck: Observations on policy inertia and how policymakers can accelerate change.This episode is a timely and thought-provoking update for healthcare executives, policymakers and clinicians committed to building a more sustainable, efficient health care system.Key Quote:The only way you can see a health care system that works in the future is if it's value based—that it's prospective payment and risk on the providers for the elaboration of care provided.If we believe what most people write about these things, we've got 25 to 30% waste as a result of the fee-for-service system.If we move to a value-based approach, that's money that's going to fund the system, that extra third that we can put back into real health care. So you need a value-based approach.-- Troy Brennan, MDTime Stamps:(3:12) Employment-Based Health Care is Unsustainable (7:29) The Value-Based Future and Primary Care(10:00) Payment Disparities and Policy Inertia(22:00) Technology and Data Analytics in Advanced Primary Care(28:18) Peggy's ReflectionLinks:Connect with Troyen Brennan Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Disciplined, purpose-driven innovation, anchored in governance, data, and the human experience, beats shiny-object hype.In this mega-episode, Lisa Fry, Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer at SCP Health, discusses “purposeful innovation” that reduces clinician burden and elevates patient experience: ED-volume prediction to align coverage, early pilots of ambient scribing, and patient-preferred models like hospital-at-home. She explains the guardrails, an enterprise architecture review board, commitments to core platforms, and stage-gated pilots with predefined success metrics, to avoid the “tyranny of the urgent” and scale only what works. Nancye Feistritzer, DNP, RN—VP, Center for Care Delivery & Innovation at Emory Healthcare, talks about how bold initiatives, including the Apple hospital work and implementing Epic on Apple devices, succeed only when they explicitly align with an organization's strategy, mission, and values. Nick Yaitsky, Board Member for TAG Digital Health, urges outcome-first AI roadmaps: accept that healthcare data is imperfect, mitigate bias by fine-tuning models to local populations and even individual patients, and build trust in the same way we came to trust GPS, through consistent, measurable results and governance. Olga Ryzhikova, Founding Partner at Kepler Team, tackles adoption by starting integration where clinicians work (SMART on FHIR/SSO), designing modern user experiences, and favoring ambient, low-click workflows so tools remain in use. Ron Strachan, Global Healthcare CIO Advisor, addresses rural access, noting that resilient, low-bandwidth virtual care and platform economies can “meet patients where they are.” His own brain-tumor journey underscores how imaging precision and reliable infrastructure can change outcomes. Finally, Wes Whitaker, AVP of Growth Strategy & Data Analytics, shows population health at scale: unifying EHR, eligibility, claims, and ADT into a modern cloud/Databricks stack, then applying predictive models to anticipate ER visits, target outreach, drive attribution, and prove ROI, while tightening security with role-based access. Together, their message is clear: govern hard, integrate early, pilot fast, measure relentlessly, and scale empathetically.

“We did do a study where we shared the story of the careful thought that went into products that were better for people and the planet … Then we administered the standard guest satisfaction survey, and what we found, Joan, was 150% increase in satisfaction, loyalty numbers… Why?...They equated it to service. They said, a hotel that goes out of its way to choose products that are better for me and the planet is a hotel that I have confidence is going to take better care of me while I'm there.” JoAnna Abrams on Electric Ladies Podcast As conference season begins and then the holidays, a lot of us are traveling. The American Hotel and Lodging Assn. (AHLA) says 56% of American adults stay in hotels per year, and 77% of business travellers do. What's the impact on our health – and the planet of being in those hotel rooms? Listen to JoAnna Abrams, Founder/CEO of MindClick in this fascinating conversation with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson. MindClick is a supply chain product intelligence company specializing in the hotel industry. They tell us if furniture, carpets, beds, etc. in hotels have toxic chemicals, were made with renewable materials, if hotels use clean energy, etc. You'll hear about: ● How MindClick measures the impact of the furnishings in hotels on our health and the planet. ● How corporate travel buyers decide which hotels their executives and employees need to stay in when they travel – and how MindClick intelligence helps keep their teams safe & sustainable. ● How consumers can find information on hotels verifiably adhere to ESG-related standards. ● Plus, career advice, such as: “First of all, don't give up on that, wanting to make a difference. I remember early in my career saying that that's something I wanted to do, and the response was, no, you don't. You just want to make money. The truth is, you can find opportunities to make a difference and make money. The key is, being very clear in communicating that out to your network, and you'll be pleasantly surprised at how many people actually share that same sentiment. We all want to feel good about the work that we're doing, and by being open about that you'll find that people will be open in return and refer you to those that are on that path.” JoAnna Abrams on Electric Ladies Podcast Read Joan's Forbes articles here.

As AI matures, we are starting to see some practical applications. During this episode, we learn that, when used properly, AI can allow for collaboration, reduce reporting time, and include valuable unstructured data into a data set to make better decisions. Christy Burris from North Carolina gives an outline of the challenge her organization had with sharing data. They were struggling to analyze data from 54 sources, so they developed a utility called North Carolina eLink that utilized AI to provide understanding without compromising privacy. She continues with some specifics. In one case study, they estimated an annual time savings of 415 hours. Some governments attempt to improve wireless service for their citizens; the challenge here is to document that increase. Artie Tangri from California outlined how they took a complex and overwhelming amount of data from Wi-Fi access points to demonstrate improved service. Leveraging AI for analytics needs the correct tool set. Bob Deppisch from Heavy AI emphasized the evolving role of AI, noting advancements in data management and security.

Rishard Rameez is the Co‑Founder and CEO of Zown, an AI‑powered real estate platform that makes homeownership more accessible and affordable. Zown was born from a viral Reddit post where Rishard shared his frustration over paying over $70K in real estate commissions. The outpouring of support inspired him to flip the model: instead of paying big commissions, Zown gives buyers significant upfront cash to help with their down payment and closing costs, while offering sellers flat fees. This customer‑first model has driven rapid growth, with Zown processing over $300 million in transactions and becoming Canada's fastest‑growing real estate brokerage. The platform has recently launched in California and continues expanding across North America.

Cameron-Brooks June 2025 Career Conference Review: Insights for Your Military-to-Business Transition Transitioning from the military to a professional business career is a pivotal moment for any Junior Military Officer (JMO). At Cameron-Brooks, our mission is to help JMOs navigate this career transition with clarity and confidence through a three-step approach: 1) Prepare 2) Search 3) Launch Our June 2025 Post-Conference Review offered a deep dive into the April Career Conference results and shared actionable insights for those preparing for the August 2025 conference, and those in the Cameron-Brooks Development and Preparation Program. I was joined by three recent Cameron-Brooks Alumnus who attended the Conference: Jesse DeVries (Caterpillar), Patrick McMahan (Intuitive Surgical), and Connor McNamara (Optimized Process Designs, LLC - a Koch Engineered Solutions company. Whether you are actively preparing for your transition or simply exploring what's possible, here are the biggest takeaways from our latest Career Conference and alumni panel. June 2025 Conference Recap: A Fast-Paced Career Launchpad The Cameron-Brooks Career Conference is a 4.5 day, high-intensity event, where you'll meet with Hiring Managers for open positions from industry leading companies spanning across multiple industries. At the June Conference, 46 JMOs attended, and 445 interviews were conducted. Every single JMO was "pursued" to the next round of interviews. These open positions are highly complex, designed to be filled by high-performing junior leadership talent in order to get into a company's succession planning. With about two openings per position on average, some opportunities were highly competitive single openings, while others offered broader geographic flexibility and multiple openings. Every JMO had multiple pathways to success. Navigating the Market and Maximizing Interviews Despite a competitive economy - high interest rates and unemployment hovering around 4.2% (Which is relatively normal) - The JMOs interviewed for premium roles in leadership, operations, sales, and engineering. Key lessons from the conference: Be a Giver: Successful candidates focused on solving the company problem first (The open position). When candidates successfully connected their background, built rapport and demonstrated genuine interest in that position, the companies reciprocated with a pursuit for the next round of interviews, and then offers onsite. Preparation Drives Pursuits: The best-prepared JMOs - those who dressed for success, mastered their stories, and tailored their answers - earned the most follow-up interviews. There was a direct correlation between time spent in preparation (Phase 1 -Preparation), and successfully launching (Phase 3 - Launch). Embrace a Broad Search: Flexibility in industry and location opened the door for a broader search (Phase 2 - Search). The average time from conference to signed offer was 13.25 working days, with some candidates accepting in as few as six working days. Preparing Like a Pro: The Cameron-Brooks Process Our alumni panel reinforced the importance of preparation prior to, during, and post-conference. Pre-Conference Development & Preparation Program (DPP): Build your foundation, refine your stories, and understand how your military experience translates. Study Groups: Considered the most valuable tool for refining answers and building confidence. Mock Interviews: Essential to remove military jargon and communicate stories effectively. Reading List: Builds business acumen and helps connect with the interviewers, and recognized industry practices and topics such as: Lean, Six Sigma, Data Analytics, etc. During the Conference Company Briefings: Every JMO received a 30-minute briefing on every company they interviewed with accelerating their knowledge on each company, and what skills were necessary to connect on and be su...
