Ben Chapman is the General Counsel and Chief Privacy Officer at Swoop. Prior to Swoop, Ben was the Deputy General Counsel for Real Chemistry. He has nearly 10 years of experience in ad tech, data, and privacy matters. In this episode… Companies that operate in the healthcare marketing space, like Swoop, approach privacy by emphasizing transparency, ethical practices, and building trusted partnerships. To remain compliant, businesses need to thoroughly understand their data handling processes and regularly assess their partners. By asking detailed, factual questions, companies can make informed decisions about their partners' practices and ultimately strengthen their privacy programs. Additionally, adopting a consumer- or patient-centric perspective helps businesses navigate the complexities of privacy laws while aligning with regulatory requirements and ethical standards. A proactive and well-informed approach to privacy strengthens compliance efforts and builds trust. Healthcare marketing faces new challenges as privacy laws evolve and health data definitions expand. Laws like the Washington My Health My Data Act broaden the scope of what constitutes health data, requiring organizations to reevaluate how they handle consumer data. Navigating this complex regulatory landscape requires companies to ensure compliance with state privacy laws and federal regulations like HIPAA, all while maintaining trust and transparency with consumers. How can companies ensure ethical and privacy-friendly marketing practices? In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels speak with Ben Chapman, General Counsel and Chief Privacy Officer at Swoop, about the intersection of privacy and healthcare marketing. They discuss how state privacy laws redefine health data, the importance of ethical data practices, and strategies for evaluating partners. Ben shares his insights on building privacy programs, fostering collaboration, and navigating the nuances of healthcare marketing in a highly regulated environment. He also highlights the importance of continuous learning and collaboration within the privacy community to stay ahead in the ever-changing regulatory environment.

This show is going to be a little bit different because what we're going to do today is offer some advice to those who may work at a pharma company. But before we get into this advice portion of the discussion, let's start here. For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. Probably we're gonna have people listening to this episode who maybe are not in our normal tribe of Relentless Health Value listeners. While there are, for sure, regular listeners who work at pharma companies, there might be some newbies on the scene here. And to you, I say welcome. I hope that you feel right at home here. You know what, though? Many of us, including myself often enough, are slightly uncomfortable. Because this is the place where we all kind of look at ourselves in the mirror. We all live in glass houses, after all—everyone in the healthcare industry. There's no devils and no angels here. And the trick is maximizing the good and minimizing the not so good so that we all wind up with the highest net positive possible for patients. So, around here, we do not shy away from saying what needs to be said so that we all can find a way forward to serve the patient. We cannot solve problems, after all, that we have not taken a cold, hard look at. Yeah. So, today I am speaking with Brian Reid. I have been very much looking forward to speaking with Brian Reid, who many may know from his really great newsletter and really insightful LinkedIn posts. Brian Reid's advice, which he delivers in the episode that follows in sum. Spoiler alert here, but I also will say that he is much more eloquent than me, and the nuances are a thing. So, please do listen to the whole show. But Brian's piece of advice number one for Pharma (and really any product or service frankly), but piece of advice number one is this: Get a really solid bead on what value means—not just to PBMs (pharmacy benefit managers) or contract pharmacies or wholesalers who are middlemen but to the ultimate purchasers, the ones whose wallets the money is actually coming out of to pay the bill. Meaning, plan sponsors, such as self-insured employers or unions, patients themselves or members, and taxpayers. Again, how does value accrue to the ultimate purchasers like plan sponsors, patients/members, or taxpayers? Everybody else in the drug supply chain, let's be clear, is in the middle pushing money around that came out of somebody else's wallet. These middlemen have their own interests that may, for sure, may or may not be aligned with the interests of the ultimate purchasers. Getting value realized by patients will depend on understanding what the value is to these ultimate purchasers and then not getting derailed by any middleman who may not be so aligned. As a sidebar on this number one piece of advice, the whole “what's your value” and influence coloring this value equation made by ultimate purchasers is the prevailing beliefs of these ultimate purchasers, relative to Pharma, how they perceive the pharma industry. Whether it's earned or not—and this is not what we're gonna discuss today—but earned or not, Pharma does not have a great reputation with these folks right now. And this matters. Brian has a lot to say on this topic, which is fascinating. So, you should listen. Number two piece of advice that Brian Reid delivers in the podcast that follows that we talk about: Consider inching into the fray around benefit design. Rightfully so, there's always a lot of talk about patient affordability at pharma companies; but if I was gonna point to one thing that impacts affordability more than anything else, it'd be benefit design. There's only a small, underfunded cadre right now of folks out there (Mark Cuban aside, actually); but there's only a really small number of folks who never have any money who are really helping plan sponsors understand the impact on patients of some of the choices that they are making. I mean, personally, I could think of 10 things to do right off the top of my head that could help plan sponsors not get inadvertently screwed in this realm alone, just thinking they're saving money when, in reality, they are harming patients and not saving money. There's probably a lot of opportunities to communicate these kinds of things that are really win-win collaborations. Number three piece of advice that we talk about in the conversation that follows with Brian Reid: Keep an eye on hospital consolidation and vertical integration in the payer space. Consolidation raises prices and impedes patient affordability. This is as per study after study after study. Consolidation raises prices and sometimes considerably. Here's a part B to this third piece of advice about consolidation. There's sometimes wild swings in prices at different large, consolidated health systems in the exact same geography. Listen to the show with Cora Opsahl (EP452) for more about how their health plan, as just one example, saved $30 million a year just pushing a huge expensive health system, consolidated one, out of their network and navigating patients to more affordable sites of care. This matters to pharma companies because hospital system prices are currently crushing in many areas of the country, really impacting patient affordability. But there are better or worse options from an affordability standpoint in some of these geographies. To state the obvious, if an infusion of the same drug costs 10 times more if a patient shows up in one care setting versus another, that latter place, not affordable for patients. And by the way, that is not hyperbole of any kind. There are plenty of examples where literally an infusion of the same drug, same dosage will cost 10 times more if a patient goes one place versus another. But, again, it's not affordable. The patient cost share might be 10 times higher if it's coinsurance, if the patient goes to that latter place. And that latter 10x more of the cost place also just added 10x the cost to the PAP program or the foundation debit column. All of this is really relevant to Pharma. And just to pile on here because now I'm on a roll, another reason why this matters, these striking price variations between care settings, if we're talking about product value, and if the price the patient or the plan sponsor is paying is 10x the cost of the ingredients, nobody's doing that math and separating out the cost of ingredients from the, you know, total cost of the infusion. It is one lump sum number. So, if we're defining value as outcomes divided by cost and now the cost to the plan sponsor is 10x, product value just got reduced by 10x. Just in case anyone is confused here, and you probably know this, but many forget that the whole ASP (average selling price) plus 6% provider reimbursement—so, if that's what you're thinking and you're wondering how the 10x transpires—that ASP plus 6% provider reimbursement is only for Medicare kinds of plans. Hospitals can and do negotiate much higher reimbursements for commercial plans, and those carriers that have commercial lines of business and also MA (Medicare Advantage) books of business even allegedly actually negotiate higher commercial reimbursements so that they can get lower Medicare Advantage rates. Right, and you can see why, because the MA dollars are coming out of their own capitated pockets, whereas the commercial rates are being paid for by the ultimate purchasers, the plan sponsors.

Conversations around GLP-1s in today's healthcare market are mixed. Some stakeholders are thrilled with their potential, while others are filled with questions and even anxiety about how these powerful and popular drugs will impact their business.

Jim Weiss has evolved Real Chemistry from a one-person consultancy into an international leader in health innovation. Currently, he serves as Chairman and Founder and as Executive Advisor to New Mountain Capital, Real Chemistry's investment partner. Jim is a healthcare, biopharma, medical tech entrepreneur, business leader, and digital health pioneer. He's been named a Top 50 Health Influencer and Innovator of the Year. Last year, he received the Trailblazer Lifetime Achievement Award.  His affable curiosity began in our hometown of Honesdale, Pennsylvania, and was furthered at his alma mater, Syracuse University, where he was inducted into the Newhouse School's 50 Forward as one of its most accomplished graduates of the last 50 years. Jim and his wife Audra also founded the Weiss Center for Social Commerce at S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. In this episode, Jim talks with Todd Stephens about taking the leap from big pharma to launching a start-up. He recounts his early days becoming the leader that, perhaps, no one saw coming. He also touches on the next phase of his career.

In this episode of the Data Malarkey podcast, data storyteller Sam Knowles is joined by Shai Reichert, Co-Founder of XDS – a US-based business also known as the Experience Design Studio. Shai has almost 20 years' experience working in web development, user and customer experience. He has held senior roles on both the client side (for Comcast and Rosetta) as well as in digital marketing agencies. Shai spent six years in charge of all things technological at the specialist healthcare agency the W2O Group – now known as Real Chemistry.   Half-a-dozen years ago now, Shai co-founded XDS, where he focuses on the technology and operations necessary to build a positive and robust customer experience for its clients, which are mostly active in healthcare. XDS offers a heady mix of consulting, design thinking, engineering, marketing, and analytics. The company aims to enhance the customer – or patient – experience ‘beyond the pill' for pharma and healthcare companies.   Our conversation was recorded remotely, via the medium of Riverside.fm, on 19 April 2023.   Thanks to Joe Hickey for production support.   Podcast artwork by Shatter Media.   Voice over by Samantha Boffin.   As a sports fan – to play, to watch, and to encourage his sometimes reluctant kids to take part – Shai spends a fair amount of his time outside of the office with his head deep in sport. That includes in the data surrounding sport – particularly his favourite, baseball – though he baulks at the real-time application of the Moneyball principles. Particularly if that means taking off a pitcher when he's only pitched a few balls because the next three at-bat have a great record over him. That's a bit much.   Shai's agency, XDS, makes extensive use of data to understand how its clients are performing in their digital marketing channels, learning from data how they could improve performance, and monitoring it for evidence of impact. XDS helps clients enhance analytics, web traffic, search engine optimisation, paid ads – all different components of digital marketing spend.   The company was founded pre-pandemic, but on principles and ways of working – it turns out – that were perfectly suited for a locked-down world. XDS associates are spread across the US and, even when team members travel overseas, Shai observes that “they never miss a beat”. He goes on: “COVID accelerated a lot of things we were doing – on Slack, Teams and so on – and actually created a huge number of opportunities for us and our clients.”   Shai is lukewarm about the potential of mass-availability AI such as ChatGPT to transform marketing, but XDS finds it helpful in suggesting and elaborating copy and content strategy ideas. That said, Shai knows from experience that many businesses are not doing many of the seven critical website tactics he blogged about back in 2016, let alone embracing ChatGPT. EXTERNAL LINKS The XDS homepage – https://madebyxds.com Shai's LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/shaireichert/ The evergreen, always-relevant post Shai first shared on LinkedIn on 4 January … 2016: “Forget 2016 ‘Digital Trends' – Here are 7 Website Tactics You Should Focus on Right Now” – https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/forget-2016-digital-trends-here-6-website-tactics-you-shai-reichert/ Shai on Twitter – https://twitter.com/thesreichert     To find out what kind of data storyteller you are, complete our data storytelling scorecard at https://data-storytelling.scoreapp.com.

A major reason stems from the myriad comms pitfalls that appeared during COVID-19, particularly the early days.From real-time information challenges to opinions being misinterpreted as fact, Real Chemistry's Jennifer Gottlieb dissects the root of the COVID-19 comms problems that kept leaders such as her so busy from the get-go.When she confronts a particularly difficult scenario, one of the first questions she asks – Is this a crisis or a PR crisis? Knowing that answer impacts the response tremendously. This is just one of numerous bits of valuable counsel offered throughout the podcast.Aaron Rodgers. Healthcare choices made along political leanings. The important of “insight integration.” All these topics — and more — are tackled during Gottlieb's podcast with PRWeek managing editor Gideon Fidelzeid. We welcome you to listen in.

It's been a long time coming, this in-person get-together of the three SmallDataForagers (I assume that's what you call someone moderating a forum?) to celebrate our Golden Jubilee. 1,955 days, in fact, since our fateful first encounter in the now sadly defunct Hospital Club in Soho. And nearly 650 days since our last Olivelli feast, just before Christmas 2019, when the world was a different, less pandemic place. That is of course all small fry compared with the 5,788 days that Angela Merkel has held the office of German Bundeskanzler. More of her and German politics later.    So, a long time coming, and well worth the wait: great company, inspiring conversations – the three of us don't just have now 50 SDF episodes to reminisce over, but also a shared professional history of one time (Sam, Thomas) and other (Neville) working in the London office of what is now Real Chemistry, a power house of digital analytics alchemy driven business insights in life sciences. As rebranding is such a thing, and in light of our professional interests (not least Sam's second book), perhaps we should start calling ourselves the SmallDataBigInsightsForum? Demonstrating resilient continuity in the face of pandemic disruption, we also reconvened at the Picturehouse Central members bar high above Piccadilly for one of those rare occasions, a live in-person podcast recording.

We've partnered with Real Chemistry— formerly W2O — on a new series Healthy Bites. In each episode, we will have a quick chat with a healthcare expert to provide a digestible "what you should know" to help the industry stay ahead of the rapidly changing healthcare public relations and communications landscape. We are launching the series with Emily Poe, group president of integrated communications at Real Chemistry, who talks to PRovoke Media executive editor Aarti Shah about data-driven communications.  Topics covered: 02:01 Defining data-driven communicator  02:59 The balance between instincts and data  03:53 Most exciting data-driven advancements  06:39 When does data have the most impact?

Value-based insurance design (VBID) uses incentives to increase health care quality and to promote cost efficient health care services and consumer choices. But like all approaches to health care cost containment, VBID isn't one-size-fits-all. For VBID to be effective—that is, promote high-quality services and discourage use of low-quality care—incentives must embrace clinical nuance, using data to assess how clinical benefits vary by person, provide and site of service. Leslie shifts from our typical “supply side” perspective to talk health care demand and how VBID engages consumers in their own health decisions with Christine Juday, Vice President at Discern Health, Real Chemistry's consultancy focused on quality-based payment and delivery models.

Could life have arisen from non-living chemicals via chemical evolution? If life couldn’t start by itself, then Darwinian evolution could not have started, therefore it is a fiction.
