Podcasts about Osmosis

We like to think of Osmosis from Elsevier as a global community of millions of learners, connected by a desire to serve humanity and an inclination to use a diverse mix of educational resources to help them become excellent healthcare practitioners. On today's episode of Raise the Line, we're going to learn how Osmosis has created an opportunity for hundreds of those students from sixty countries to actually solidify those connections through the Osmosis Health Leadership Initiative (OHLI). Our guide to this effort is Osmosis Community Specialist Alfred Collins, who brings a keen interest in developing tech solutions to power the future of human communication to his work with OHLI.“Technology collapses barriers to communication and to understanding the nuances behind culture, behind global perspectives,” he tells host Lindsey Smith. One example he cites is how OHLI members learn about variations in the way different cultures approach collaboration, an important insight to gain as they head into team-based healthcare environments. OHLI members convene regularly over video sessions to hear from leaders in healthcare and learn about hosting successful on-campus events, among other enriching content.  They also have an opportunity to provide feedback on improving the Osmosis learning platform, and this year they're participating in a “hackathon” aimed at improving the future of healthcare. Tune in to find out more about what the OHLI program offers, how to apply, and how Alfred thinks virtual reality and AI technologies will impact the future of community building. Mentioned in this episode:Osmosis Health Leadership Initiative If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

In this thought-provoking episode of Skin Anarchy, Dr. Ben Johnson, founder of Osmosis Skincare, returns to challenge everything you think you know about skincare. From overprescribed medications to the obsession with exfoliation, Dr. Johnson breaks down why the industry's go-to methods might be doing more harm than good.He takes us behind the scenes of traditional dermatology, calling out harsh treatments like antibiotics, Accutane, and peels that treat symptoms but ignore root causes. Instead, he promotes a whole-body approach—one that starts with gut health, hormonal balance, and inflammation control.One standout topic? The exfoliation myth. Dr. Johnson explains why that post-peel “glow” might actually be trauma, not health. Rather than stripping the skin, he advocates for strengthening it—protecting the barrier, supporting circulation, and embracing intelligent ingredients that nourish rather than inflame.The conversation also rethinks cleansing, highlighting Osmosis's Purify Cleanser as a model for how skincare can be both gentle and effective. Plus, Dr. Johnson shares new insights into the gut-skin axis, the post-COVID microbiome shift, and how popular supplements might be contributing to skin issues like SIBO and H. pylori flares.If you're tired of the same old skincare advice, this episode offers a refreshing, science-driven alternative. It's not just about looking good—it's about helping your skin function as it was meant to. Tune in for a deep, transformative look at what it really means to have healthy skin.CHAPTERS:(0:02) – Introduction: Welcoming Dr. Ben Johnson(1:11) – Realizing the Flaws in Traditional Dermatology(3:50) – The Obsession with Exfoliation in Skincare(5:16) – The Truth About Exfoliation and Its Harmful Effects(7:23) – How Exfoliation Affects the Skin's Natural Barrier(9:02) – The Concept of "Glow" and Alternative Approaches(11:01) – The Importance of Proper Cleansing in Skincare(12:50) – The Right Balance for Cleansing: Lipids and Surfactants(15:18) – The Microbiome: Keeping It Intact for Healthy Skin(19:24) – The Connection Between Skin Health and Gut Health(22:57) – Exploring the Role of Epigenetics in Gut and Skin Health(25:25) – H.

Ever wonder what happens behind closed doors when recruitment entrepreneurs hit rock bottom? This episode pulls back the curtain on the raw, unfiltered journey Blake and Declan took from cold-calling consultants to the founders of a nationwide recruitment community.The brutally honest conversation reveals pivotal moments that shaped their path—like the chance meeting in a park where Declan first learned about recruitment after seeing Blake's Mercedes, or Blake's first day making random cold calls without training simply because everyone else was busy on the phone. These authentic stories illuminate how two regular guys built something extraordinary through sheer determination.Their transparency extends to truly harrowing business crises—predatory vendors demanding triple fees with four days' notice, critically ill children at home, and a devastating $300,000 loss when a client went insolvent—all happening simultaneously. Yet it's precisely these moments that revealed their superpower: community. When traditional businesses would have collapsed, their partners rallied together to help solve problems collectively.Whether you're contemplating starting your own recruitment business or simply fascinated by entrepreneurial journeys, this conversation offers profound insights about the true measures of success. As Blake notes, "I think the longer I'm in business, the more I realize it's the journey that matters, not the destination." But perhaps Declan delivers the most actionable insight: "Osmosis. You're 15 or 30% better when you're around people." Who's in your corner?Support the show· Our Website is: xrecruiter.io

An interesting new study from the Geisinger health system in Pennsylvania examining if genomic screening in a large population increases the identification of disease risk prompted Raise the Line to re-release a previous episode about a textbook designed to help all medical providers understand the clinical applications of genomic testing. Genomics in the Clinic: A Practical Guide to Genetic Testing, Evaluation, and Counseling from Elsevier Science Direct dives into the use of this important tool in diagnosis and screening, indicating how individuals may respond to drug therapies, and more. “We really need to educate all healthcare providers about the practice of genetics because they're going to be involved directly or indirectly in genetic testing and conveying information about what the results mean to patients and their families,” explains co-author Dr. Ethylin Wang Jabs, enterprise chair of the Department of Clinical Genomics for Mayo Clinic. Jabs and her co-author, Dr. Antonie Kline, director of Clinical Genetics at the Harvey Institute for Human Genetics at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, chose a format that makes heavy use of case studies to help readers get a better grasp on this complicated field and they also include chapters on direct-to-consumer testing and the ethical and social implications in genomic medicine. “Any kind of potentially predictive testing can have ethical issues related to it, including insurance coverage, testing for family members, protections for minors, and more,” says Dr. Kline. Join host Caleb Furnas for an illuminating episode on an area of discussion in medicine that's growing in importance as the use of genetic testing rapidly increases. Mentioned in this episode: Genomics in the Clinic: A Practical Guide If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

The process of brining involves a salt and water solution. Osmosis is key to the brining process, affecting protein structure. Different types of salt can yield different brining results. Brining times vary based on the type of meat or fish. Curing salts help inhibit bacterial growth during the brining process. Historical brining practices were essential for food preservation. Corned beef became popular in Ireland due to low salt taxes. Pastrami and Montreal smoked meat evolved from corned beef recipes. Brining can also be applied to foraged ingredients and fermentation. You can flavor brines with various aromatics like ginger and garlic. Different meats require different brining percentages for optimal results. Ham and other meats can also be cured and used creatively.

To mark International Rare Disease Day, we're going to introduce you to a remarkable young woman, Zainab Alani, who is not letting her challenging rare condition stand in the way of her dream of becoming a physician. After noticing Zainab's struggles with muscle weakness and fatigue at age 15, her mother – a physician – took her to doctors advocating for a diagnosis of the rare autoimmune condition generalized myasthenia gravis (MG). Unfortunately, a series of clinicians attributed her symptoms to her menstrual cycle and other errant causes and even accused Zainab of being ‘a lazy teenager.' “Despite having that support and knowledge behind me, these doctors were dismissing my symptoms because of that deceiving label of rare,” Zainab explains to host Lindsey Smith. Wanting to spare others from this frustrating diagnostic odyssey, Zainab turned to advocacy once in medical school and is working with her sister and others through the organization Rare Aware Glasgow to raise awareness among the general public about rare conditions and to spur the medical community to adjust its perspective. “We don't expect medical professionals to know every single rare disease, we just want them to acknowledge their existence and not dismiss them when a family member or a patient brings them up as a differential diagnosis.” In this inspiring episode in our Year of the Zebra podcast series you'll also learn about intersectionality creating burdens in medical diagnosis and a questionable basis for patients being denied access to new treatments.Mentioned in this episode:Rare Aware GlasgowThe Myasthenia Medic If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Having the ability to manage uncertainty is helpful in all professions, but perhaps especially so in medicine where uncertainty abounds and the stakes for managing it are high. Despite that, medical students receive little training in this area, something which our guest today, Dr. Jenny Moffett of RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences in Dublin, is working to change. “There are approaches to uncertainty that can be learned. We can change our perspective and perceptions around uncertainty, stepping away from always viewing it as something aversive, but perhaps maybe looking at it with a little bit more curiosity and openness, and that's definitely a transformation that faculty can make,” says Dr. Moffett, the program director of the Postgraduate Diploma in Health Professions Education. In addition to a perspective shift, Moffett also believes providers should develop skills to talk about uncertainty with patients in an open and honest way. “Clinicians can say, I'm on this journey with you. I don't have all of the answers, but we have paths, we have options, and I'll be there with you as we work them out.” Join host Caleb Furnas as he explores Dr. Moffett's fascinating work in this area which includes development of an immersive puzzle game that encourages students to address complex, ambiguous, and unpredictable issues.Mentioned in this episode:RCSI University of Medicine and Health Sciences If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

The Role of Clinicians in Addressing Climate Change: Dr. Catharina Giudice, Climate and Human Health Fellow, Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health “The healthcare system is in this interesting intersection when it comes to its roles and responsibilities as it pertains to climate change,” says our Raise the Line guest Dr. Catharina Giudice, a research fellow in climate and human health at Harvard University.  As she explains to host Hillary Acer, the medical industry is a major producer of the greenhouse gasses that are contributing to serious health impacts on patients, especially those who are already vulnerable due to pre-existing conditions and economic struggles. Giudice, whose academic work focuses on healthcare sector climate preparedness, believes this paradox requires a response from clinicians. “There's so many small things that you can do as an individual clinician to make a difference in the climate change intersection.” Options include working to change hospital practices, educating peers and patients on the health impacts of climate change, and advocacy in the public policy arena. In this thought-provoking installment in our NextGen Journeys series, you'll also learn how the healthcare delivery system is being affected by climate change, and about a new concentration in climate change and planetary health at the Harvard T.H.

We continue our NextGen Journeys series today featuring fresh perspectives on education, medicine, and the future of health care with an impressive medical student who was brought to our attention by a previous podcast guest, Dr. Michael Foti, whom we'd like to thank for the recommendation. Nikolas Bletnitsky is in his third year at Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine, Middletown, but that's just one element in his medical education. Over the last several years, Nick has done extensive work in the field of OB-GYN -- completing clinical electives in Paris, France and Bologna, Italy, in addition to the Mayo Clinic -- where he has pursued his intense interest in a variety of subspecialties, including maternal fetal medicine. “Right now I'm doing a lot because I'm young and I have the energy and I want to see a lot to give me different perspectives on things so that I can incorporate them into my own practice,” he tells host Michael Carrese. Join us for a wide-ranging conversation in which you'll learn about current practice in OB-GYN in the US and Europe, neonatal palliative care and advances in fetal surgery, along with what Nick has learned about having crucial conversations with the parents of patients when tough news needs to be discussed.Mentioned in this episode: Touro College of Osteopathic Medicine, If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Today, our ongoing global tour of medical education on Raise the Line stops in the Republic of Ireland by way of a conversation with the head of school at Trinity College Dublin School of Medicine, Dr. Colin Doherty, who is in the midst of revising the school's curriculum. In that process, particular attention is being given to how medical education needs to change to adjust to the potentially transformative impacts on health, healthcare and society from artificial intelligence, big data and climate change. As Dr. Doherty tells host Caleb Furnas, a recent creative workshop with internal and external stakeholders produced reassuring results. “It was really gratifying that central to the future of our workforce is not technology, but the humanity of the healthcare worker.” The widely-published epileptologist believes achieving that will require a regulatory framework that strikes the right balance. “Let AI help us with making the right choices for treatment, but don't put it between us and our relationship with the patient.” There is much to contemplate in this fascinating discussion of advances in understanding epilepsy, managing change in academia, instituting love as an outcome measure, and the many challenges and opportunities of leading a 300-year-old medical school into the future.Mentioned in this episode: Trinity College Dublin School of Medicine

On this episode of Raise the Line, we're going to learn about the organization behind one of the most important exams in healthcare: the NCLEX, which is the licensing exam for nurses in the US. The influence of the test, which is overseen by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing (NCSBN), is hard to overstate because of its role in driving what nursing students and educators focus on. That was made evident when the heavily revamped Next Generation NCLEX, launched in 2023, placed much greater emphasis on clinical judgment than had been the case on past exams. “I think the education transformation prompted by the new exam is still going on. The launch was more of a catalyst than I expected,” says Dr. Philip Dickison, CEO of NCSBN, who was director of Health Professions Testing at Elsevier before joining the Council in 2010. Through administering licensing exams and serving as the collective voice of nursing regulators across the country, Dickison says NCSBN strives to achieve its ultimate goal, which is building public confidence in the competence of nurses.  “I see our job at the Council as making sure there is a moment of trust between a patient and their nurse.” Join host Liz Lucas, Senior Content Manager for Nursing at Osmosis from Elsevier, as she explores the important work that goes on behind the scenes in the healthcare industry to help ensure public health and safety, and uncovers what Dickison learned as a military medic that still influences his work today.Mentioned in this episode:National Council of State Boards of Nursing

We have a special Raise the Line episode today that takes a look at some behind-the-scenes work happening at Osmosis from Elsevier to expand the reach and impact of our educational content, which is now being used by learners in nearly 200 countries. Over the past year, dozens of volunteers have been hard at work translating over 100 Osmosis videos into Arabic while simultaneously researching whether these translations increase student engagement and comprehension, and improve educational equity. Our host, Dr. Amin Azzam -- who has played an oversight role in this project -- is joined by two other key members of the team: Mohammad Kabakibi, the founder of Chain of Education, an online learning platform he developed while in school at Lebanese American University; and Dania Reina, who is an e-learning creator and a pharmacist from Brazil. “In the beginning, we had one or two volunteers, but now we have more than fifty. This is huge and this only happens because we are building this for us and to leave for other healthcare professionals who will hopefully keep it going,” says Reina. Research has shown significant learning improvement among video watchers and as a bonus, the people doing the subtitles report enhanced knowledge of the subjects they work on. These positive outcomes have spurred Kabakibi to look for other opportunities to make an impact, including helping Arabic speakers learn how to do research in English. “I believe one of the legacies that this project will carry through me will be my continuous mission in reducing barriers when it comes to healthcare and education,” he shares. Check out this inspiring episode to learn about other offshoots of the project, how this work supports lifelong learning, and why AI is not up to the task.Mentioned in this episode:Chain of EducationOsmosis Video with Arabic Translation

Brothers Inspire and Share Life Lessons Through Endurance Sports: Kyle and Brent Pease of the Kyle Pease FoundationToday, we have an especially inspiring episode in our Year of the Zebra series on rare conditions featuring Kyle Pease and his brother Brent, who recently helped each other complete the 140.6 mile Ironman World Championship in Hawaii, a challenge they also took on together in 2018. What makes their story extraordinary is that Kyle, who was born with cerebral palsy and spastic quadriplegia, participated in these races with Brent's assistance, making them the first push-assist brother duo to finish the grueling competition. With over 125 endurance races under his belt, Kyle has become a leading disability advocate, demonstrating resilience and breaking barriers through sports. “Competing really reminds me of my life. I go through many ups and downs throughout my day just as I do in this sport. You get through a lot of different challenges throughout the competition by just focusing on the idea that anything is truly possible,” he tells host Lindsey Smith. To amplify their message of inclusivity and determination, the brothers co-founded the Kyle Pease Foundation which sponsors races and other awareness building events and they deliver speeches to a variety of organizations to share the lessons they've learned. “We want to encourage people to figure out what their finish line looks like.

We paused at the pivotal moment when he founded Osmosis, which now manages over $17 billion in assets.Today, we're continuing the Osmosis story and diving into the groundbreaking strategies behind its success. Ben explains how his team developed a systematic, data-driven approach to investing, using their resource efficiency factor to measure carbon, water, and waste management as predictors of company returns. This method allows Osmosis to build portfolios that consistently outperform benchmarks while significantly reducing environmental footprints.We also talk about ESG data – what's broken, why it matters, and how Osmosis collects, cleans, and standardizes its own data to ensure accountability. Ben unpacks the nuances of portfolio construction, balancing risk and reward, and shares how they've managed to cater to global institutional clients while staying laser-focused on their mission: delivering returns that are both financial and environmental.If you still doubt that sustainability can drive profitability – or that a boutique firm can achieve explosive growth while redefining public equity investing – this episode is a must-listen.Let's pick up where we left off!–About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

The use of simulation in nursing education has been growing in recent years not only because of its proven effectiveness as a training method, but because of limits on clinical training placements, and a dearth of nursing faculty. Today on Raise the Line, we're happy to welcome one of the pioneers in this area, Dr. Pamela Jeffries, the Dean of the Vanderbilt University School of Nursing which is consistently ranked among the top graduate nursing schools in the US. “Now that we've moved to competency-based education and outcomes, I feel simulation is one of the mechanisms that's going to help faculty to see our students demonstrate those competencies needed across domains,” Jeffries tells host Maria Pfrommer, director of Nursing Education at Osmosis from Elsevier. Dr. Jeffries is also known for her work improving the online learning landscape in nursing education. “Online learning is so important in nursing because if you look at our students, they're typically working part-time or even full-time and need that flexibility.” Maria and Dr. Jeffries also get into the details of Vanderbilt's graduate nursing programs and discuss the game changing potential of AI in nursing education and practice in this informative episode.Mentioned in this episode:Vanderbilt University School of Nursing

Today, I'm joined by Ben Dear, founder and CEO of Osmosis Investment Management, and this is the first part of a story that is anything but ordinary.It's a true odyssey that began in a small town in England, passed through many entrepreneurial experiments, and ultimately led him to found Osmosis – a $17 billion sustainable investment fund.But Ben's journey was far from an overnight success. He faced academic struggles, tried his hand at various careers – including managing a Jamaican restaurant and building a software testing company he later sold for millions – and learned important lessons about taking risks and building trust in business.A pivotal moment in Ben's life came when he watched ‘An Inconvenient Truth,' which inspired him to align his career with sustainability and create Osmosis based on values and integrity. It combines investment strategies with a focus on environmental impact, using a rare systematic approach that has driven remarkable growth and success with solutions like green indices and ETFs.In this first part of the interview, Ben openly talks about the highs and lows of his journey, how he overcame early obstacles, and what it took to convince initial investors to believe in his vision.Tune in for this inspiring conversation about what it really takes to build something impactful from scratch.P.S. Don't forget to join us next week as we dive into the second chapter of this story. We'll talk about how Osmosis is revolutionizing sustainable investing, share the strategies driving its success, and explore why it's become a leader in aligning finance with environmental values.–About the SRI 360° Podcast: The SRI 360° Podcast is focused exclusively on sustainable & responsible investing.

“Being a provider yourself doesn't protect you or your loved ones from illnesses and it really brings the humanity back into medicine to recognize that we're all struggling and that the  patient in front of you is processing what they hear in their own way,” says Dr. Marta Perez, and OB-GYN and mother of a child with a rare condition. As Perez shares with host Lindsey Smith, her young daughter's struggles with Smith-Magenis Syndrome – which causes an array of developmental delays and other challenges -- has made her, and her physician husband, better doctors by sharpening their understanding of the difficulty patients have navigating the healthcare system and dealing with dismissive providers. “That's been something really formative for us in how we approach patients in our own practices. We understand the stresses in medicine.” In this candid interview, Perez talks about how she and her husband juggle two demanding jobs and a child with special needs, the impediments to finding treatments for rare diseases and the emotional impact of realizing your child will not have the kind of life you hoped they would have. Don't miss an episode rich with lessons for providers and parents as our Year of the Zebra series continues. Mentioned in this episode:@Dr.MartaPerezSmith Magenis Syndrome

This episode of Raise the Line is special for a couple of reasons. Our guest, Toh Hong Keng recently graduated from medical school at the age of seventy, making him one of the oldest medical students in the world; and Shiv Gaglani is taking a break from his 3rd year of medical school -- which he is completing at the age of 35 -- to make a rare appearance hosting the show so he can compare notes with Toh about being a non-traditional med student and to learn from his inspiring example. Toh is a retired tech sales executive who earned his medical degree this summer from Southwestern University PHINMA in the Philippines after a long career in the Asia-Pacific region. As he tells Shiv, Toh brushed aside the opinions of acquaintances that pursuing a medical degree in his late sixties was a little crazy. “I'm a firm believer that at this age, we should be able to do what we like to do, not what people think we should be doing.” Tune in to find out what sparked his interest in getting the degree, what his biggest challenges were, how his classmates interacted with him, what he considers highlights of the experience, and what he plans to do next.  You'll also learn about the concept of “sayang” which Toh relied on when he was facing doubts along this very difficult, but rewarding journey. Mentioned in this episode:CNN Article About TohSouthwestern University PHINMA School of Medicine

Leaning into the ancient wisdom that ‘practice makes perfect' nursing educators are increasingly embracing approaches such as simulation and competency based education that provide students with low-risk opportunities to practice skills. You might even say that the  ‘see one, do one, teach one' framework has evolved into ‘see one, do one, debrief, get assessed and do it again.' But while research shows these hands-on methods lead to increased patient safety and better clinical outcomes, they can be challenging to implement as we'll learn on this episode from April Rowe Neal, PhD, RN, the graduate nursing simulation educator at Winona State University College of Nursing & Health Sciences. “It can be hard for a lot of faculty because it's not necessarily how we've all been trained, right? You have to take more of that ‘guide on the side' role rather than having all of your lecture notes perfectly typed to deliver to your students,” she explains to new Raise the Line host Kelsey LaFayette, DNP,  Senior Content Manager at Osmosis from Elsevier. On the plus side, Rowe Neal thinks these methods build a partnership between the learner and the teacher. Find out why that happens, learn how her program uses scaffolding to set students up for success and get Rowe Neal's take on the role of mindfulness for medical learners and providers in this insightful conversation.Mentioned in this episode:Winona State University College of Nursing & Health Sciences

2024 is the year today's Raise the Line guest, Michelle Hughes, is supposed to die. That's according to the diagnosis she received three years ago from an oncologist who told her she had a rare, incurable form of cancer that had already caused innumerable tumors throughout her body.   As a mother of three – with her youngest child being just a few weeks old at the time of her diagnosis – this was obviously devastating news.  But fortunately, the optimism and encouragement of a second oncologist allowed for a new path forward. “It changed my entire world when that one doctor had hope,” she tells host Lindsey Smith.Fueled by the advice of her new doctor “to just live your life” Michelle embraced a healthy lifestyle that includes distance running, including a recently completed triathlon. She has also embraced the role of empowering others to face their challenges through “My Journey to Just Live” an organization she created that keeps her busy doing a blog, social media posts, speaking engagements fundraisers and other activities. Join us for a special edition of our Year of the Zebra series focused on rare diseases to learn about Michelle's challenging journey to motherhood, being a parent to three young children, and living with terminal cancer. “I remind my children and myself that cancer doesn't define me. I'm so much more than that.”For information on the November 16th online premiere of a documentary about Michelle's story, visit My Journey to Just Live

What good are dazzling advancements in science – such as the rapid development of an effective COVID vaccine – if public distrust of science and medicine leads people to reject them?  That's the sort of question animating the work of today's Raise the Line guest Dr. Kathy Reeves, president and CEO of the Arnold P. Gold Foundation. A key part of the answer, Reeves believes, is to increase the level of humanism in healthcare, defined as providing kind, safe, trustworthy care. “Humanism in healthcare is the vehicle to allow science to make an impact, and it is what is needed to change a broken healthcare system,” she tells host Caleb Furnas. Her conviction is based on numerous studies showing that patients who feel heard, understood, and treated with empathy by their healthcare providers report higher satisfaction levels and improved quality of life. The approach boosts provider satisfaction and lowers costs as well. “There's more science in the value of humanism than in many of the things I learned almost thirty years ago when I was a pediatric resident.” Tune in to this insightful episode to discover what providers can do in less than a minute to create a connection with patients, what Reeves and the foundation are doing to support providers who want to incorporate humanism into their practice, and how the White Coat ceremony got started. Mentioned in this episode: Arnold P.

We've learned quite a bit on Raise the Line about the growing trend of providing medical care in the home, particularly as it relates to services enabled by advances in remote monitoring technologies. In this episode, we're adding to that base of knowledge by focusing on what's happening with in-home physical therapy services. Our guide will be Palak Shah, PT, the co-founder and head of clinical services at Luna, a leading provider of in-home physical therapy that has completed one million patient visits in twenty-eight states since its founding in 2019. “Our patients appreciate this option so much because there are so many hurdles to access -- time constraints, ability to come to a clinic, the cost of travel, the dependency on family and caregivers -- and Luna eliminates all of that,” Shah tells host Michael Carrese.  The company has also focused on convenience for its 3,000 licensed providers through developing an app that integrates documentation, care coordination, billing, scheduling and other administrative tasks. But can you actually provide high-quality care for a full range of patient needs in what might often be small spaces? Based on data from its patient population in Southern California, Shah says Luna found that 87% of people can be seen in the home because large pieces of equipment are not needed to provide the required treatments. Tune in to learn how the services are paid for, how the system works for the hospitals and practice groups the company partners with, and what Luna's providers say about working in the home environment.Mentioned in this episode: Luna
