The United States has been willing to lead the world in large-scale strategic planning in the past. The creation of the United Nations, or the fight against HIV/AIDs are good examples. A new book edited by Oregon State University's Christopher McKnight Nichols makes the case that “grand strategies” do not have to be military in nature. In fact, Nichols argues that global strategic planning, led by powerful nations like the U.S., will be necessary to forestall future pandemics. Christopher McKnight Nichols and Elizabeth Bradley, president of Vassar College and contributor to the new book, join us to discuss the history and future of grand strategy.

Are you facing financial problems? Are you struggling with sickness or disease? Do you face problems with your job? Does it seem that after getting past one problem you come face-to-face with an even bigger challenge – that life is just a never-ending obstacle course? How can we overcome such challenges? Let's look at Elizabeth Bradley. She knows how to overcome obstacles. Cadet Bradley recently broke the record for the indoor obstacle course at the U.S. Military Academy. It's no easy course. The 11 challenges on the course include a crawl under a barrier, running through tires, a two-handed vault, a balance beam, an eight-foot long narrow shelf, a 20 foot horizontal ladder and climbing 16 feet up a rope. Oh, and don't forget the 350 meter sprint, in part of which you must carry a six pound medicine ball. I doubt I could complete the course. Bradley did it in two minute and 20 seconds. Now she practiced and conditioned herself before breaking the record. But the real secret is attitude. She says that 90% of the course is mental, “It requires you to push yourself past what you think you are capable of."* To overcome your challenges, adjust your attitude. Many Scriptures remind us of the power of God at work in our lives. One is Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (NKJV) Keep that in mind as you tackle your next challenge. *Matthew Cox, "Female Cadet Sets New Record for West Point's Punishing Obstacle Course," Military.com, April 2, 2021, https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/04/02/female-cadet-sets-new-record-west-points-punishing-obstacle-course.html.

“The model of medicine where you base treatment of patients on statistics and epidemiology- what works for most people- we felt like we could do better as a society and as a group of physicians, and that's what took us down the route of creating Wild Health and focusing on precision medicine.” - Dr. Matthew Dawson, Wild Health CEO Can human performance be optimized by tailoring medical care to each patient's unique genetic makeup? Matt Dawson, MD and Mike Mallin, MD are the co-founders of Wild Health, a healthcare clinic using a genomics-based personalized medicine approach. Dr. Dawson has been a life-long athlete focused on optimizing performance.  He received scholarships to play two sports in college even with self-professed "minimal talent" because of his voracious reading and implementation of any fitness or nutritional techniques that would give him an edge.  He continued that obsession into medical school at the University of Kentucky College of Medicine, and as a physician he has won numerous national awards for education, innovation, and leadership. Dr. Mallin has been in medical practice for 10 years, but obsessed with health, physical performance, and longevity his entire life. He attended the University of South Carolina School of Medicine and currently practices in Bend, Oregon. Dr. Mallin is board certified in emergency medicine and has completed a fellowship in point-of-care ultrasound. Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin met during their Emergency Medicine residency in Salt Lake City, Utah, where they bonded over their life-long passion for optimizing performance.  Throughout their residency, they continuously self-experimented with nutrition, fitness, and recovery techniques to give themselves a competitive edge. Together they have gone on to grow several businesses, create apps, and author two textbooks.  Most recently they founded Wild Health where they use a medical approach rooted in the lessons they learned during their time self-experimenting as residents. Wild Health utilizes a team of medical professionals to look at an individuals unique genetics, lab results, microbiome, and lifestyle factors in order to craft a precision treatment plan that fits the patient's health, fitness, and longevity goals. I recently had the opportunity to appear on Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin's Wild Health podcast, and I was excited to catch up with them at their home base in Lexington, Kentucky to have them as guests on Pursuing Health.  We talked about how they became interested in genomics and personalized medicine, how using an objective Health Score can motivate patients to make lifestyle changes, and the processes they're implementing to make precision treatment plans the future of medicine. In this episode we discuss: Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin's backgrounds in health and fitness, and why they decided to go into medicine How Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin met and some of the adventures they shared during residency The nutrition and biohacking they experimented with as they went through their medical training How Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin came to recognize that genomics were integral to practicing medicine What personalized medicine/genomics-based medicine means What the patient process looks like Using an objective Health Score to help motivate patients and give them a way to track progress How Wild Health uses health coaches to be more hands-on with their patients The Wild Health Fellowship The tipping point that allowed them to go all-in with Wild Health, and what their vision for the future looks like Three things Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin do on a regular basis that have the biggest positive impact on their health One thing they struggle to implement that could have a big impact on their health What a healthy life looks like to Dr. Dawson and Dr. Mallin You can follow Wild Health on their website, Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.

Date: November 15, 2012 Featuring: Patricia Rutherford, RN, MS, Vice President, Institute for Healthcare Improvement; Co-Principal Investigator, STate Action on Avoidable Rehospitalizations (STAAR) Elizabeth H. Bradley, PhD, Professor of Public Health (Health Policy and Management), Yale School of Public Health; Faculty Director, Yale Global Health Initiative Leora Horwitz, MD, MHS, Assistant Professor, Internal Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine Of all the improvement issues facing health care, reducing avoidable hospital readmissions may well be the one that finally breaks down traditional silos — and allows promising changes to realize their full impact. Why? In order to prevent patients from bouncing back into the hospital, front-line staff must create robust care coordination strategies across multiple health care settings, as well as the home and the community — taking a fundamentally broader view of the patient journey and the reforms needed. However, doing the right thing ​— keeping patients out of the hospital — often hurts a hospital’s bottom line. So far, anyway. In the US, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has now imposed fines on some 2,200 hospitals for higher-than-average readmission rates, as part of new federal policy. This latest move won’t make the financial piece any easier, but it does put hospitals on notice that there’s “nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.” If you want to reduce readmissions, you have no choice but to fundamentally redesign what you’re doing now.What are the most promising ideas and strategies to look to and build upon? This WIHI convenes some important leaders and thinkers on reducing readmissions and care coordination that, between them, have a comprehensive view of what’s working, what’s challenging, and where we go from here. Elizabeth Bradley and Leora Horwitz are among the co-authors of an article in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology published in August 2012 that examines the all-too-persistent gap between best intentions and uneven execution of known best practices. Drs. Bradley and Horwitz discuss the study findings and what can be done to help health care organizations follow through on their own robust policies. In her role as Co-Principal Investigator of IHI’s STAAR initiative, Pat Rutherford has been deeply involved with hospital leaders and officials in three states that have taken to heart the challenge of reducing readmissions, with results to show for it. Pat Rutherford also carefully tracks the work of multiple initiatives in the US, including Project BOOST, Project RED, and Hospital to Home (also known as H2H).WIHI host Madge Kaplan welcomes Dr. Bradley, Dr. Horwitz, and Pat Rutherford to the show, to share their crucial and timely insights and learning. These improvement leaders are keenly aware of the ways in which policy and reimbursement changes surrounding readmissions are giving hospitals that want to do the right thing a jolt.

It’s amazing sometimes how simple ideas get lost in the big picture.  Back in 1923, President Warren Harding proposed a federal department to look after the nation's health, education and welfare.  The department was finally created by Eisenhower in 1953.  In 1979, Education was spun off and we created the department of Health AND Human Services.Clearly as a nation, we’ve long understood the connection between health and human services.  Yet the way our health care system has evolved, preventive care, and human services have been almost abandoned as part of the health care enterprise.Today we spend more money, per capita, on health care than any other nation.  Yet our outcomes, are near the bottom.  How did this happen, especially when we seemed to understand all along that there was a connection?Is the fault in our government, our doctors, in our philosophy or in ourselves?  Elizabeth Bradley and Lauren Taylor set out to try and find out.  The result is their book The American Health Care Paradox: Why Spending More is Getting Us LessMy conversation with Elizabeth Bradley and Lauren Taylor:
