We were made in God's image, which includes the ability to create and innovate. As Christians we credit God with all he creates and the creative abilities that he has endowed within us. The founding Father's saw this privilege and therefore wrote protection of the creators rights and ownership of their creation into the constitution. In the past 20+ years that has changed as politicians have altered our system. They have given the edge to large corporations. For the first time in over a century, we are now losing one of our greatest strength to the Chinese, who have now created their patent system to resemble the previous successful way the United States designed theirs. What can we do? Listen to our podcast with James Edwards. James Edwards Dr. James Edwards advises companies, trade associations, and conservative organizations on patent policy. He is Founder and Executive Director of Conservatives for Property Rights, is the patent advisor for the Eagle Forum Education and Legal Defense Fund, and Co-Director of the Inventor's Project, and participates in the Medical Device Manufacturers Association's Patent Working Group.

Third-party health apps can help patients manage chronic diseases, log vital signs, and take charge of their health. But these apps often fall outside of HIPAA's purview, leaving them in a regulatory gray area. Tina Grande, executive vice president for policy at the Healthcare Leadership Council and chair of the Confidentiality Coalition, Robert Tennant, vice president of federal affairs at the WEDI, and Marilyn Zigmund Luke, vice president at AHIP, discuss third-party health app privacy and security risks.

In this episode, Melanie sits down with Tina Grande, the Executive Vice President for Policy at the Healthcare Leadership Council. In her role, Tina helps to advocate for consumer-centered healthcare reform, emphasizing the value of private-sector innovation as well as public-private partnership. Tina has healthcare and policy in her blood: her father represented the Mayo Clinic on Capitol Hill, and she began her career as junior staffer in healthcare policy for Senator David Durenberger. In the early 2000s, she became an entrepreneur, creating a software that organized 44,000 pages of Medicare policy into a consumable format for policymakers and providers alike. During their discussion, Melanie and Tina dig deeper into Tina's remarkable career at the intersection of healthcare, technology and national policy. Tina also shares her perspective on the mission and successes of the Council, what inspires her, and the key priorities she believes policymakers and healthcare leaders should keep front and center in the months and years ahead.

The inability to easily exchange medical data is holding back healthcare improvements and innovation. Thankfully there has been concerted effort recently from governments, vendors, standards bodies, and healthcare organizations to address this. Key to this effort is a standardized way to measure our interoperability progress (or lack thereof). The Healthcare Leadership Council and other leading organizations have created a new measurement framework to address this gap. Watch this expert panel, hosted by Surescripts and moderated by Healthcare IT Today, discuss a proposed framework for measuring interoperability progress: • Mary Grealy, President of Healthcare Leadership Council • Tom Skelton, Chief Executive Officer at Surescripts • Ashok Chennuru, Chief Data and Analytics Officer at Anthem • Cris Ross, CIO at Mayo Clinic • Matt Swain, Chief of Staff at the Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT Learn more about Surescripts: https://surescripts.com/ Find more great health IT content: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

Are you living your core personal values? If you look carefully at how you're spending your time, how aligned is it with your core values? It's a great time to step back, take stock, and make some changes that can make a big difference in the year(s) ahead. Our guest Harry Kraemer, author of Your 168: Finding Purpose and Satisfaction in a Values-Based Life, highlights how self-reflection can help create greater alignment and flexibility. A Values Based Life Our conversation covers a lot of ground: Why 168 is his favorite number. After the books he's written on leadership, what inspired him to write Your 168. What a life based on values looks like versus one that’s less so. Why self-reflection is so important – and how it's part of his day. How planning and spontaneity can co-exist. What the transition was like for him when he retired  – and what led him to teach in the MBA program at Kellogg. What a friend and colleague learned from a wake-up call. The role habits play in a values-based life. Why genuine humility and making a difference are key parts of a values-based life. His involvement in the One Acre Fund. The best way to start if you want to make the most of your 168 starting in 2021. __________________________ Bio Harry M.

Matthew welcomes Mary Grealy, President of the Healthcare Leadership Council, for a fantastic conversation on how collaboration in the industry can truly usher in a new age in healthcare innovation.  Mary discusses HLC's upcoming Disaster Preparedness and Response Plan, the recently announced Stark Law and Anti-Kickback Statute, and how COVID-19 highlighted (and exacerbated) health disparities and value based care in the U.S.

The coronavirus pandemic is stretching the US healthcare system to breaking point, with tens of millions of people losing their employment-related coverage. One such person is Susan, a breast cancer survivor who has had to avoid vital check-ups after being made redundant as a bartender in New York. And there are many more like her. Kaiser Family Foundation Data Scientist Cynthia Cox explains how difficult it is to know how many people are actually without healthcare right now. Dr Adam Gaffney, a pulmonary and critical care doctor and instructor at Harvard Medical School says the insurance-led model already was in need of a drastic overhaul, while Mary Grealy of the Healthcare Leadership Council counters that the system does still work and offers greater choice to the consumer. And LaRay Brown, who leads the One Brooklyn Health System, describes how the pandemic is having a devastating effect on hospitals’ finances. Will the US health system stand up to the strain of Covid-19, and its economic disruption? (Picture credit: Getty Images)

The Philanthropy Episode – A Holiday Double Feature A CEO’s Virtual Mentor® Episode 14 Holiday greetings from The Leadership Lyceum!  Welcome to our 14th episode of the podcast. ‘Tis the season of giving and we give you our holiday gift in the form of this holiday special double episode on Philanthropy.  We’ll cover the subject from a few different angles. First. from the perspective of the giver – with our first guest, University of Chicago benefactor Bernard DelGiorno.  Bernie also advises his clients on charitable giving in his role in private wealth management at UBS. Next, from the angle of the recipient.  We’ll glean the perspectives of Jennifer Sampson, CEO of The United Way of Metropolitan Dallas.  Jennifer led a remarkable turnaround in Dallas and has led the development of programs that fund impactful and innovative social entrepreneurship.  Finally, we introduce you to a group of public company CEO’s in Ohio that are leveraging their musical talents to raise money for charities in Ohio.  Two of the CEOs that we feature have the ultra-cool distinction of being board members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  We feature the music of the CEO band, Power Chords throughout the music interludes in the program.  Segment I: Bernard DelGiorno, University of Chicago benefactor Segment II: Jennifer Sampson, CEO of the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas Segment III: The Ohio CEO band for charity - The Power Chords.  Perhaps it is not widely known that there is a group of several CEOs in Ohio have given their musical talent and time to charitable fundraising events.  One band that raises money for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame includes three of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame board members: Drums: Nick Akins, CEO of utility AEP in Columbus; Guitars, vocals and keyboards: George Barrett, CEO of Cardinal Health; Guitars: Dr. Michael Drake, President of The Ohio State University and; Bass: Greg Harris, President of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  Another band, The Power Chords, includes Akins and Barrett, plus multi-instrument virtuoso and vocalist Joe Hamrock, the CEO of utility NiSource.  Segment III is my coverage of The Power Chords at their Thursday, September 28th evening gig fundraiser for the Mid-Ohio Foodbank in Grove City, Ohio, outside Columbus. Conclusion  We hope you enjoyed this holiday season episode of A CEO’s Virtual Mentor and the fitting subject of Philanthropy from its many different angles.  It’s clear across all of these segments the devotion of our guests to something larger than themselves.  Famous Last Words We close our episode in Lyceum tradition with Famous Last Words.  It’s December 24, 1941.  Christmas Eve.  Just 17 days after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.  President Franklin D. Roosevelt lights the White House Christmas tree and is joined in this, his 9th ceremonial act (pre-presidential term-limits) by Prime Minister Winston Churchill, who was in Washington for the Arcadia Conference, the first wartime conference between these two close allies since the US entrance into World War II just 16 days prior on December 8th. Try as I might to edit this down for our 21st Century attention spans and our improved discourse efficiency at between 140 to 280 characters, with the fate of the world hanging in the balance, I lacked the courage to cut.  Use a bookmark, because it’s well worth a listen.  On this day, 76 years ago, two of the 20th century’s most monumental figures took the stage with two purposes.  On the surface, they took to the microphone to announce the lighting of a tree.  But in their soaring speeches, they made clear the principles for which they had now committed both of their nations.  The overtones and undertones are thought-provoking and revealing for our current state of sensibility.  Warm wishes for the holidays and for your resolve for the New Year. Thanks for joining us.  We can’t improve without your feedback – write us through our website www.LeadershipLyceum.com and subscribe on iTunes.  See you next time.

Guest: Nancy H. Nielsen, MD, PhD The second of two programs consisting of excerpts of a panel discussion examining the issues surrounding healthcare coverage for millions of uninsured Americans. The panel was presented by U.S. News and World Report's National Issues Briefing, in association with the American Medical Association. Panelists include Senator Max Baucus (D-MT), Senate Finance Committee Chairman; Mary R. Grealy, president of the Healthcare Leadership Council; and Paul H. Keckley, PhD, executive director of the Deloitte Center for Health Solutions. Brian Kelly, editor, U.S. News and World Report, moderates. The panel was introduced by Nancy H. Nielsen, MD, PhD, president of the American Medical Association. Given latest U.S. Census profiles of uninsured Americans, and the obstacles to retaining coverage, including evolving private sector and employee work patterns and gaps in existing health care plans, panelists debate possible solutions -- from group coverage to state and federal benefits plans -- as well as current and emerging solutions from within the Administration and Congress, the presidential candidates, and other experts. The panel was recorded on September 23, 2008, at the National Press Club in Washington, D.C.
