Rhode Island's largest hospital group, Lifespan, changed its name last June to Brown University Health. The name change and related agreements were billed as a way to improve patient care, medical education and biomedical research in the state. But making headway against Rhode Island's healthcare challenges is more difficult than changing a name. The state suffers from a lack of primary care doctors. Reimbursement rates for Medicaid and Medicare are lower than in neighboring states, putting Rhode Island at a competitive disadvantage. And the Hospital Association of Rhode Island advocacy group warns that Governor Dan McKee's recent budget proposal would hurt hospitals and the patients who rely on them. As president/CEO of Brown University Health, John Fernandez is on the frontline of facing these issues. So can Rhode Island improve healthcare while reducing costs? What is the answer for the state's medical reimbursement problem? And how is the financial outlook for the state's top two hospital groups? This week on Political Roundtable, I'm going in-depth with president/CEO of Brown University Health John Fernandez.
In this conversation, Tyler and John Fernandez discuss the importance of studying scripture to build a personal relationship with God. They explore various approaches to scripture study, the significance of understanding the audience, and the necessity of discerning non-scripture resources. The dialogue emphasizes that scripture reveals God's love and purpose, and offers practical tips for effective study, including setting short-term goals and focusing on one scripture at a time.

Summary In this episode, Tyler and his guest John Fernandez discuss the importance of putting our trust in God, even during times of discontentment. They explore the difference between contentment and happiness, and how discontentment can hinder our ability to see God at work in our lives. They also discuss the role of comparison in discontentment and the importance of being present and grateful in our relationships and careers. The episode concludes with practical ways to put our trust in God and find contentment in any circumstance. Takeaways- Putting our trust in God can help us find contentment in any circumstance. Contentment is not the same as happiness; it is about being sufficient and independent of external circumstances. Discontentment can hinder our ability to see God at work in our lives. Comparison can kill contentment; we should focus on what we have in the present rather than comparing it to the past. In relationships and careers, it's important to be present, grateful, and do our best with what we have. We can put our trust in God by realizing that He has placed us where we are for a reason and seeking to bring glory to Him in that place.

Today’s guest is John Fernandez, the President and CEO of the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary in Boston, Massachusetts. Mass Eye and Ear is one of the world’s leading specialty hospitals dedicated to ophthalmology and otolaryngology care, or as John says, they take care of everything from the neck up except the brain, but maybe the brain too sometimes. In this podcast John talks about his journey to leading this world class organization, including his progress into the executive ranks at another world class Boston organization, the Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Throughout the interview, John talks about his management approach, which focuses on the fundamentals: plan, execute, follow up. While this sounds like a fairly simple formula, I think anyone who has tried it knows that simple isn’t always easy. John tempers his management approach with a focus on kindness, which was something heartening to hear from a senior executive. One of the things that is clearly important to John is work life balance. We talked about work-life balance both before and during the interview, and one of the pieces of advice he gives to early careerists is to get your personal life sorted out first, and then figure out what you want from work, which was interesting advice. John has a series of questions that he gives people to help guide them through that process. I will post a link to those questions on the podcast web page. podcast web page: http://healthleaderforge.blogspot.com/2016/08/john-r-fernandez-president-and-chief.html
