Since its first store opened in 1901, Walgreens has been embracing innovation in the retail pharmacy space, fueling its expansion to become a neighborhood health destination with more than 9,000 locations. As the healthcare industry navigates major structural changes – and a global pandemic – Walgreens is staying true to its roots of innovation and guiding what the future of healthcare looks like in America.Kevin Ban joined Walgreens as Chief Medical Officer in January 2020, and by the end of February was already being thrust into pandemic planning and response. In the short time since, he's implemented guidelines to ensure customer and team member safety, launched and expanded COVID-19 testing services across thousands of stores, and rolled out COVID-19 vaccinations, all while focusing on Walgreens' long term goals for the strategic role it will play in healthcare.During this episode of Healthcare is Hard, A Podcast for Insiders, Kevin draws on these experiences – as well as past roles including time spent as CMO at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, CMO at AthenaHealth, and Professor at Harvard Medical School – in a wide-ranging discussion with Keith Figlioli. They touch on a number of topics including:Decades of VBC Lessons – While value based care in America is still in its early days, Kevin has been a student of value-based arrangements for two decades. He describes time he spent in Italy in the early 2000s where he was exposed to the single-payer model, and what he calls the epitome of value based care. For example, he remembers the Italian health system being exceptionally good at delivering care outside of the hospital in a way that the U.S. health system would have never imagined. He also talked about how that background prepared him to become involved with one of the nation's first VBC experiments – Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts' Alternative Quality Contract – at a time when his peers showed little interest. (for more on AQC, listen to the Healthcare is Hard Episode with Pat Gilligan, Chief Commercial Officer at BCBSMA)Pairing primary care and pharmacy. In his time at Beth Israel, Kevin says he was amazed at how often plans for patients fell apart because of the challenges with medication management after discharge. These experiences formed Kevin's beliefs about the imperative for getting medication reconciliation right. He says that any time you can pair primary care and pharmacy together thoughtfully, it will drive better outcomes, and talks about different strategies for ensuring synergy in the future.Community care and retail's role. Kevin knows how important the last mile of care is and says that connecting with people outside of the hospital was a continued source of frustration during his time at Beth Israel. However, that paradigm is completely different at Walgreens. People trust their pharmacist because they're accessible and deeply knowledgeable, but overall, they're an underutilized resource within the health system. While not long ago, it's even difficult for Kevin to remember a time before pharmacies administered flu shots. And now, people go very comfortably to their local pharmacy for vaccines and testing, making them an important new site for primary care – just as Walgreens is delivering through its investment in and partnership with VillageMD.To hear Kevin and Keith talk about these topics and more, listen to this episode of Healthcare is Hard.
EASTER SERIES Have you ever knelt on the floor and washed someone's filthy feet? It's hard to imagine, isn't it? Mostly today, we wash our own feet, don't we? Back in Jesus' day, when everyone walked around in sandals, feet got super dirty and the least slave or servant in the house would be assigned the miserable task of cleaning up the feet before people tramped all over the house. We might not need foot washing these days, but there are plenty of icky jobs that still need doing, aren't there? Continue reading Choosing the Hard - Episode 35 at Sweet Selah Ministries.

The Brainy Business | Understanding the Psychology of Why People Buy | Behavioral Economics
Today is our last episode in the series on biases – and the last episode of the first year of the podcast! Can you believe it? A whole year of behavioral economics and business. A lot has happened over this year and I look forward to sharing that in next week’s anniversary episode. Today’s episode closes out the series on biases by talking about our brains’ penchant for novelty and story. You probably know that people remember better when they hear stories, and that they pay more attention, but this will explain the concepts of our brain that make it the case for everyone - and how you can use it in your business to be more effective. Show Notes: [04:00] Our brains like things that stick out or are different. This is called the bizarreness effect because things that are bizarre are remembered better than more common stuff. [05:13] We are also more likely to remember funny things compared to those that are not humorous due to the humor effect. [06:32] Incorporating humor into messaging is not always easy. If it is not done right and feels staged it can be detrimental to any brand. [07:32] Due to pareidolia our brains are primed to see faces in pretty much everything. No matter how vague or random the stimuli, it can be seen as significant when our brain gets a hold of it. [08:14] Illusory correlation is an inaccurate memory about the relationship between two different things. [09:17] Seeing faces on houses, trees, cracks in the sidewalk or whatever else (pareidolia) are deeply rooted in our love of story and of novelty. [10:51] Our brains’ appreciation for stories impacts so much of everything we do. We often tell ourselves stories about other people because it helps us to understand them. [11:07] Due to the empathy gap, we are likely to underestimate how much feelings will influence decisions and how strong they can be – this occurs both for ourselves and for other people. [12:48] Due to the identifiable victim effect, people tend to have a lesser response to a large group of people than they do to a single person. [13:58] Giving a specific story can help form a picture in their brain, which means they are more likely to remember you in the future. [14:39] Survivorship bias is a way we can remember and focus on those who survived and ignoring everything else because it is less visible. [16:14] If you are not thinking about where survivorship bias could be impacting your analysis, you could be doing a huge disservice to your business. [16:33] The just world hypothesis is where we want to believe the world around us is fundamentally just, and we will rationalize some injustice that is otherwise inexplicable as being deserved by the victim. [17:20] Moral luck is the tendency for someone to use the outcome of an event to assign moral standing even when it is likely unrelated. [18:07] Authority bias is where we are more likely to believe and be influenced by the opinion of someone in authority. [20:35] The Ben Franklin effect shows that if we have done a favor for someone, we are more likely to do a second favor for them. [22:03] Social desirability bias is where we want others to see us in the best possible light, so we will likely overreport our own socially desirable behaviors and characteristics, while we will under report them for everyone else. [22:30] The courtesy bias is where we share opinions that are more socially acceptable than our true thoughts and feelings so we do not offend anyone. [22:47] Because of omission bias we will judge actions (also known as commissions) more harshly than inactions (or omissions) even if they are more harmful than taking an action. [24:18] The backfiring effect is when we have done something good, and are therefore more likely to allow ourselves to do something bad. [25:33] The stories we tell ourselves are impacting the decisions we make all the time, and it doesn’t have to be as dramatic as these studies have made it out. [25:56] Once you understand how these biases impact you and your life, think about how it impacts the opinions others have of you (and you have of others). Then think about how understanding them can help you to make better decisions. Thanks for listening. Don’t forget to subscribe on Apple Podcasts or Android.

“Desperation and bad decisions go hand and hand.” Have you ever experienced loneliness and, as a way to decrease those feelings, you would be friends with just about anyone? This quote, then, demonstrates that we may participate in questionable behaviors when trying to make friends. We’ve all felt lonely and have been in situations when we are desperate to make friends, but, unfortunately, desperation isn’t helpful in making connections with others. Join Alysa as she talks about loneliness and desperation, and how to go about making friends in a more effective, especially when you feel lonely. Share Your Friendship Stories with Alysa!

What do we mean when we say “personal and relational wellness,” and why are they important for you as a leader? And how can you develop habits and routines that will help you stay healthy personally and in your relationships? We continue in our Wellness Series with this conversation about both personal and relational wellness. If you missed part 1, be sure to go back and listen to Episode 48. Staying Healthy as a Leader: Personal Wellness What do we mean by personal wellness? Our minds, our intellect Our emotions Our mental health If I’m feeling overwhelmed, it’s often because I’m not taking good care of my personal wellness. Neglecting our personal wellness can lead to stress, anxiety, depression and other mental health concerns. It’s important for you to know where your baseline is and be aware of this, especially when it comes to mental health so that you know when you may need additional support. How we can take care of our personal wellness as leaders: Doing things that help you to de-stress on a regular basis. Managing our emotions. Self-awareness--recognizing your own baseline for emotional and mental health. It takes a lot of self-awareness to figure out what things actually rejuvenate you and what things don’t. Regular rhythms of rest; having a Sabbath and times when you do not have work or a to-do list. Episode 260 of the Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast with Ruth Haley Barton addresses the issue of busyness and the need for rest as leaders. Taking our thoughts captive. Reaching out for additional support from professionals. Holly and I both share some examples of how we stay healthy personally. Staying Healthy as a Leader: Relational Wellness Relational wellness means the health of your most important relationships. In Episode 15 - we talked about Healthy Relationships 101, and we really dove deep into our framework for how we see this topic. The health of our leadership is directly impacted by the health of our relationships. How we can take care of our relational wellness as leaders: Invest in your most important relationships; make space for these people. Creating rhythms and routines for your closest people. Develop friendships and mutually support one another. Grow in relational skills and/or address specific concerns (communication/conflict, mentoring, step-parenting). See the list of episodes below for episodes that address these areas. Don’t live in unforgiveness. It is not easy to forgive, but it important to work towards that in all relationships. We discuss some of the habits and routines we have created to keep our relationships healthy. Conclusion: As a reminder, all 4 areas of wellness are interconnected. We need to be intentional about our personal and relational wellness because things naturally deteriorate rather than improve. And finally, don’t try to focus on changing everything at once.
