I cut this clip out of episode 407 with Vivek Garg, MD, MBA, from Humana; and it's actually a really nice follow-on from the show last week with Scott Conard, MD, where we talked about the blowback that happened with clinicians at a clinic. This clinic had put into effect a bunch of the comprehensive primary care kinds of things that Dr. Garg talks about in this summer short. But what happened in Dr. Conard's case is a new practice manager tried to go back to the olden days, and, spoiler alert, it was a kerfuffle. All the docs and the rest of the clinicians staged what sounded like a “mutiny on the bounty” moment from the way Dr. Conard described it. So, this summer short you're about to hear and the one from last week again share one key point: Doctors, advanced practice clinicians, medical assistants, pretty much everybody on the team really likes a well-executed, operationally excellent transformed primary care model. And it produces better patient care. I was reading Dr. Robert Pearl's book Uncaring the other day, and he summed up the reason why, I think, these transformed primary care practices do better. He was quoting Atul Gawande, and here's the quoted quote: “The public's experience is that we have amazing clinicians and technologies but little consistent sense that they come together to provide an actual system of care, from start to finish, for people. We train, hire, and pay doctors to be cowboys. But it's pit crews people need.” I interviewed Dr. Pearl, by the way, so stay tuned for that show coming up. In this summer short, Dr. Garg digs into one common objection to more comprehensively comprehensive primary care, and that is that by improving care, we decrease throughput and, therefore, access to primary care, especially in areas where there are not enough primary care doctors.   You can learn more at humana.com, centerwellprimarycare.com, and the Humana report.     Vivek Garg, MD, MBA, is a physician and executive dedicated to building the models and cultures of care we need for loved ones and healthcare professionals to thrive. He leads national clinical strategy and excellence, care model development and innovation, and the clinical teams for Humana's Primary Care Organization, CenterWell and Conviva, as chief medical officer (CMO), where they serve approximately 250,000 seniors across the country as their community-based primary care home, with a physician-led team of practitioners, including advanced practice clinicians, nurses, social workers, pharmacists, and therapists. Dr. Garg is the former chief medical officer of CareMore and Aspire Health, innovative integrated healthcare delivery organizations with over 180,000 patients in over 30 states. He also previously led CareMore's growth and product functions as chief product officer, including expansion into Medicaid primary care and home-based complex care. Earlier in his career, Dr. Garg joined Oscar Health during its first year of operations as medical director and led care management, utilization management, pharmacy, and quality, leading to Oscar's initial NCQA accreditation. He was medical director at One Medical Group, focusing on primary care quality and virtual care, and worked at the Medicare Payment Advisory Commission, a Congressional advisory body on payment innovation in Medicare. Dr. Garg graduated summa cum laude from Yale University with a bachelor's degree in biology and earned his MD from Harvard Medical School and MBA from Harvard Business School. He trained in internal medicine at Brigham and Women's Hospital, received board certification, and resides in New Jersey.   02:31 Does advanced primary care reduce access to patients? 03:01 Are five-minute visits with patients really access? 04:17 Will advanced primary care provide outcomes that make certain PCP responsibilities unnecessary?   You can learn more at humana.com, centerwellprimarycare.com, and the Humana report.   @vgargMD discusses #advancedprimarycare on our #healthcarepodcast. #healthcare #podcast   Recent past interviews: Click a guest's name for their latest RHV episode!

Okay … let me get real here for a sec. For a few reasons, I wanted to chat with Vivek Garg, MD, MBA. Dr. Garg is CMO (chief medical officer) of primary care at Humana. Dr. Garg is an inspiring and incredibly articulate individual, and I like to both learn from and also be kept on my toes by the likes of such folks. But also, yeah, I'm suspicious of vertically consolidated payers. I mean, you listen to this podcast. I don't need to recap what the financialization of the healthcare industry has done to patient care. But you heard my manifesto in episode 400. It's about trying to find the right path forward and being open to exploring options here. It's considering what doing well by doing good actually means. It's contemplating whether to celebrate some good stuff going on in the industry even if there's some not-so-good stuff going on in that same sector or even in that same company. Bottom line: We're living in the real world here, and utopia is not on the table, at least anytime soon. So, that means there is always going to be one thing that we are always going to have to have to weigh in our consideration set, in our assessment equation that I talked about in my manifesto in episode 400. What's this one thing? It's self-interested, shareholder-centric goal setting. In other words, just because I spot a self-interested, shareholder-centric goal doesn't mean I'm automatically gonna get out my red Sharpie and cross off the whatever with a sour expression on my face because … yeah, if I did that, a whole lot of Americans are not gonna get, even incrementally, better healthcare. The right equation to determine if something is net-net good is always going to be nuanced. The equation should weigh the impact of the self-interest, which is always going to be there, against the impact on patient care and patient financials and how the whole thing impacts clinicians at a local level or maybe a national level, depending on what's going on. I'd also suggest that there's no real broad strokes here, because the equation for any given initiative or pilot or approach is really singular. I think it'd be a big mistake to lump together, for example, all payviders across the country and assume that their impact is all the same. Or all Medicare Advantage plans. Or anybody doing advanced primary care. All of these words/groups I just referenced are relevant to the conversation today. You have some payviders, for example, doing all kinds of crap with dummy codes and/or anticompetitive contracts and/or steering only to their own medical groups which they staff inadequately and/or blanket denials of anything that will throw off their medical trend calculations and/or prescribing and care pathways coinciding with their own highly financialized PBM (pharmacy benefit manager) formularies. But then, on the flip side, you also have some interesting things going on that help patients and their communities. A key ingredient of these interesting things is taking into account longer time horizons. Longer time horizons are actually pretty key here for anybody trying to do anything preventative or anything involving forming patient relationships. Also, of course, you have those who are doing some combination of the good stuff and the not-so-good stuff; and one of the reasons why the not-so-good stuff becomes so ingrained is that risk adjustment (especially if you're a payvider) across the board has anything but a longer time horizon. So, let's dig into what Dr. Vivek Garg has going on at Humana Primary Care, which includes CenterWell Senior Primary Care and also Conviva Care Center. I ask Dr. Garg some pretty hard questions about balancing the tension between being a payer with a PBM with an incentive to deny care and a provider organization seeing patients that is also beholden to those same shareholders. Dr. Garg taught me a new term, and that's the “dyad model,” where you have doctors and admins working together or clinicians and admins working together. You get the clinical team to shadow the administrative team, and you get administrative team to shadow the clinical team. You teach doctors and others the business of medicine, and you teach admins what it's like to be a clinician or a patient on the other end of some of those policies. Now, if you have a good memory, you are probably also recalling that Eric Gallagher from Ochsner (EP405) talked about this exact same concept (ie, working together, ie, the scrubs and the suits coming together into this dyad leadership model). There's a quote from Denver Sallee, MD, in episode 402 with Amy Scanlan, MD, talking about pretty much this exact same thing. And furthermore, this whole getting doctors up to speed on the business of medicine is gonna be the topic of an upcoming episode with Adam Brown, MD, MBA. So, yeah … this is becoming a thing—the idea of teaching clinicians the business of medicine. But the opposite should also get some focus—teaching admins the medicine of medicine. Dr. Garg cites three pillars to improving an organization's ability to sustainably deliver better healthcare, and these three pillars are (1) to focus on the patient experience, (2) to focus on outcomes, and then (3) to engage the clinical teams and really protect them, to protect this precious resource that doctors and other clinicians actually are. Taken together, these three pillars coincide with the pivotal question here. And that pivotal question is: How much is any given entity actually investing in clinical leadership? Because in combination, great clinical leadership plus the three pillars (ie, a focus on experience, outcomes, and clinical engagement), you put all those things together and it adds up to each individual who works in the place to harness their own intrinsic motivation—to be able to explore and double down on and actually achieve the reasons why they went into healthcare to begin with and spent years of their lives in school in order to do so. Dr. Garg mentions the latest Humana report in the show. And then I mention how I interviewed Steve Blumberg from Guidewell (AEE12) about the 2020 Humana report. Also mentioned on this show is episode 312 with Doug Eby, MD, MPH, CPE, from the Nuka System, and episode 405 with Eric Gallagher from Ochsner.   You can learn more at humana.com, centerwellprimarycare.com, and the Humana report.     Vivek Garg, MD, MBA, is a physician and executive dedicated to building the models and cultures of care we need for loved ones and healthcare professionals to thrive.

Whether innovating healthcare systems, challenging personal habits, or competing in an uphill cycling race in freezing weather, Chris Waugh often returns to the core principle of a “beginner's mind.” How would we approach this if it was our first experience?

This is a surprise live with my guest here today, Jill. She is here to tell us a lot about her struggles in this little passion project she has: Save Restaurants, Feed Nurses.Jill Cohen is working as a remote nurse right now in a virtual team with a group called One Medical Group, their primary care group. She worked in a hospital for twenty years and eighteen years in the ER. She wanted to use her degree in English and writing back into her nursing career so she started shifting gears. She realized that she has this flexibility. She took what she knows and did a little bit of a passion project on the side. We are going to talk about her struggles in the messaging that she put forth and how that relates to us as writers. We will also tackle other essential things like what we write for clients, how we struggle with messaging, and how she overcomes that. But we're going to talk more about her passion project because she thinks it can really help many of the nurses in the frontline right now.As the months of the pandemic started wearing on, Jill fell for the people who are still on the frontline who she's not working alongside anymore, in harm's way, at-risk, being understaffed, and overworked. People are having a really hard time. She noticed that the efforts at the beginning of the pandemic, there are great efforts to help nurses and boost morale. There's a program that feeds the frontliners but in the next few months, it died down.Jill thought that they need it now more than ever because we have months on top of months of more backbreaking work and that when you really need the boost, support, help, the show of recognition and appreciation. Just someone who'll give you free food is of really great help and appreciation. So she came up with the idea to resuscitate those efforts. She raised the money and connected with a local restaurant to give free food to the frontliners.Connect with Jill:Email: BackLinesFeedTheFront@gmail.comFacebook: @backlinesfeedthefrontInstagram: @backlinesfeedthefrontGo Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/backlinesfeedthefrontThank you for whatever you can give!

Description #043 - Today's episode features a very special guest, Jill Cohen. We are talking about a new passion project she is taking on, Save Restaurants, Feed Nurses. It's a backline brigade of compassionate non-bedside nurses who have committed to supporting, recognizing, and nourishing our battle-weary frontline friends by providing meals for hospital staff from local restaurants. If you happen to be a remote nurse or if you're a non-nurse friend who's interested, I invite you to listen to this episode, know more about this initiative, and together let's resuscitate the love, generosity, appreciation, and support that we showered upon our frontline healthcare workers. They need it now more than ever. Shownotes Want to be a part of this meaningful project? Donate to the Go Fund Me: https://www.gofundme.com/f/backlinesfeedthefront Want to do more?

More About Jill Jill grew up in Miami in the seventies and eighties playing tennis, roller skating, and doing aerobics. She went to Emory University, graduated Phi Beta Kappa, and earned an MA in English Literature from the University of Colorado. Afterward, Jill taught English abroad, taught writing at CU, and decided to pursue nursing. She initially wanted to specialize in sexual health education as a public health nurse and fix the whole teenage pregnancy problem. However, while earning her doctorate, she learned that hospital nurses get four days off every week. So, Jill became an ER nurse instead. She's worked in Colorado, Wyoming, California, Florida, and Australia. She's volunteered in Central America and pedaled as a medic on bicycle tours across Africa. After a 20-year ER career, she recently started a new chapter as an RN on the virtual team at One Medical Group, saving lives from her living room. Jill also volunteers at the humane society, travels extensively, backpacks, bike packs, dances, snowboards, teaches fitness, and is a varsity squad friend.

Sarah joins me today to discuss the current failures facing the mental health system in America and the opportunities presented to society to make things right. We discuss the role that the environment plays in your mental health and how considering a patient’s environment can create a positive transformation in the success of their treatment. We discuss the four key elements that make up our mental health and the importance of the connection between each element to achieve optimal mental health. We also discuss the role that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on society’s mental health status and what Sarah believes we should do to respond and help others cope with the crisis in a healthy and sustainable way.   Mental health issues are a human epidemic and our system is failing to help the millions in need. This talk puts a spotlight on how each of us can help, starting with seeing the whole thing differently.   “We’ve been funding basic science and neuro-science with the intention of understanding what’s going on and how to fix things at a biochemical level, but in the last few decades, we’ve really neglected the environment of the person.” - Sarah Seegal This week on Insert:Human How a person’s environment can impact their mental health The connection between our biological, psychological, social, and spiritual elements and the impact of an unbalance between these elements How Affect Mental Health helps mental health startups accelerate and improve the mental health system The startup ventures Affect supports and the two current startup companies Affect is currently incubating Common stigmas around addiction and prescription medication abuse The education and societal limitations impacting our human development system The impact that COVID-19 will have on people’s mental health and how Sarah believes we should respond to the current crisis while protecting our mental health The challenges associated with accepting a ‘new norm’   Resources Mentioned: Radical Acceptance - Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) From Pull to Push: How to Manage Our Time In Disquieting Times 21 ACT Worksheets and Ways to Apply Acceptance & Commitment Therapy - Positive Psychology   Connect with Sarah Seegal: Affect Mental Health Affect Mental Health on LinkedIn Affect Mental Health on Instagram Affect Mental Health on Facebook Affect Mental Health on Twitter Sarah Seegal on LinkedIn   Insert:Human - For a Better Life & Better World Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Insert:Human.

John Zeratsky was a designer in the tech industry who became obsessed with the idea of redesigning time. He is the bestselling author of Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in Just Five Daysand Make Time: How to Focus on What Matters Every Day. John’s writing has been published by The Wall Street Journal, TIME, Harvard Business Review, Wired, Fast Company, and many other publications. John has appeared on stage more than 100 times, including at Harvard University, IDEO, and the Code Conference. For nearly 15 years, John was a designer for technology companies. At GV, he helped develop the design sprint process and worked with close to 200 startups, including Uber, Slack, Flatiron Health, Pocket, Foundation Medicine, One Medical Group, and Nest. He was also GV's in-house copywriter, editor, and content strategist; he created and edited the GV Library, which has attracted million of views since 2012. Previously, John was a designer at YouTube and Google, and an early employee at FeedBurner, which Google acquired in 2007. Originally from Wisconsin, John and his wife Michelle have lived in Chicago and San Francisco. Today they split time between their sailboat "Pineapple" (currently in Panama) and their home in Milwaukee. Key Points from the Episode with John Zeratsky John has been in the startup space for years, having been part of the team at FeedBurner when it was sold to Google. At Google, he started to work at Google Ventures, which inserted him into companies they invested in to help those companies scale toward success. Through those experiences, he learned a lot about productivity, and decided to dive head-first into it to find ways to become even more productive. He was focused on efficiency so he was making the most of his time while working. He saw this as a good thing, at least at the time. Until he realized you can’t just keep pushing productivity as, eventually, you burn out. That inspired him to look for something more sustainable. This is what lead to the journey to his current book, Make Time. The trick to making time, if there is one, is to spend less time on the default behaviors we fall into so we can focus more of our time on what matters. Mindfulness is a big piece of this approach, but it’s not the only aspect as finding yourself doing something mindlessly might suggest you need to try harder and use will-power to stop doing that. John does not see will-power as a long-term strategy, and I agree with him. Instead, he says we should make it harder to get distracted. We need to create the space to become more mindful with the time we have. It starts with the idea of self-responsibility, since no one cares about you more than you do. Rather than focusing on grit and execution, we should focus on structure that helps us succeed. Instead, we would see ourselves as failures or incapable if we don’t succeed. Make the path to success the path of least resistance. As he says, if you are a compulsive gambler, you don’t live next to a casino. Make choices in the structure of your life to make it easier to get to where you want to be. He shared the basis of his first book, Sprint, which is about bringing software engineering design sprints into making teams more productive. It was an experiment with redesigning time for teams. Some of what they learned became the framework for his new book, Make Time. Speaking of which, what is it? Make Timeis a book, but also a strategy for how to make time for the things you want to be doing. It is filled with 87 concrete tactics, but it boils down to four daily steps, which are in a daily loop. They are: Highlights - what is the highlight of your day that you want to see accomplished, and then build your day around that. Laser - make the structural adjustments to your technology and physical environment to cut back on the activities you get into mindlessly that you don’t really want to do, like, “Today, I want to spend three hours lost in my Facebook feed.” It’s about adding friction and barriers back oil so you make better choices. Energize - you can’t make good use of your time if you’re tired, don’t have energy and are worn out. This is about concrete ways to build energy for your body and mind through different things you can do to take care of yourself. These are simple, concrete things you can do in a given day. For example, he shares small ways to bring movement into your day like walking to work at least part of the way (which brought up a convo about my idea of #CUYOP - Commuting Under Your Own Power), or not ordering online but going out to a store to get what you need. Reflect - look back on your day and note what went well and what didn’t, and think about what you can do differently the next day. We talked about a lot of pressure from “Musts” in our life, especially around exercise. You don’t have to workout for an hour to get benefit, and some is better than none, so do something. He cited some research that shows that the majority of the benefit of an hour of cardio comes in the first 20 minutes. And he shared other insights that, if you aren’t doing anything now, try to do just 15 minutes a day, which is a great start, builds consistency, and will start to have impact. You don’t have to stare at a huge effort and cower in front of it and end up doing nothing (that is, Do a Day!). John is all about breaking down the big things into small things we can do today. It may not get us where we’re going today, but will get us going towards it, and if you don’t start, you’ll never get there. Looking at something that’s 60-90 minuets seems to be a good place to start. It’s long enough to be a big deal that you have to make time for purposefully, but not so big that it’s impossible (like an all-day effort). We also talked about the idea of Someday vs. Today. It’s never “Someday,” but is instead always, “Today.” This is central to Do a Day, so of course I loved it. If you focus on “Someday,” you will never start since it’s always in the future. This is really useful for New Years Resolutions, especially. Break down those “Someday” goals into “Today” actions. We always know that there is something that we want to be better at, but we don’t always know quite what that would look like if we haven’t started. John talked about the idea of treading water. You know you want to get to land, but you can’t really see around you to know where to go or what getting there would entail. Sometimes, you need to start, get your head above water, and as you get going, you will see more clearly where that goal point is. John shared a personal story of doing exactly that. While he and his wife were living in San Francisco and were busy, they started to find that they were having trouble finding the space for what they wanted to do. They started (the key!) to create space for doing just that, and used it to get into sailing, which they enjoyed. The more they did it, the more they were able to make time to do it, and over the course of years, this turned into a complete change in their life. They moved out of San Francisco and onto their sailboat, and cruised their way down to Panama, where their boat is today  and they spend their summers (and they are in Milwaukee, WI the rest of the year). They didn’t start with the plan of doing any of this, but made time, and the goals started to come together toward their current life.
