No wonder anyone participating in healthcare continually struggles with the puzzle of communication. Just today, I texted a pharmacy about access to a critical medication with an expired prescription, tried to explain my newly diagnosed diabetes and diet choices on FaceTime with a friend, and drafted a letter about lessons learned about measurement for team members to share with our leaders. I know some master communicators: Seth Godin, Nakela Cook, my wife, Ellen Schultz, Steve Heatherington, and my guest today, Dr. Aaron Carroll, President and CEO of Academy Health. They each excel in different ways under different circumstances. I must take care to keep listening to their content and not float above and marvel at their artistry and skill.

First of all, a shout-out to all of you listeners who have shared this show with colleagues and LISTSERVs—really appreciate it. It's because of you and your efforts to share that Relentless Health Value maintains its spot as one of the top podcasts reaching health care executives, executives who take the insights shared by our guests to drive actual change and transformation across our industry. So, thank you. Leaving a rating and/or a review on iTunes is also the bomb and really helps our RHV team stay motivated and keep it going. Weekly shows take a ton of work! Feedback is super appreciated. On to the topic this week: Who has read that white paper put out in February by the University of Pennsylvania, specifically, Penn's Leonard Davis Institute for Health Economics? It's called “The Future of Value-Based Payment: A Road Map to 2030.” I mentioned this paper last week, too. So, if you still haven't read it, go back after this show and take a look. There's links in show notes.  As with every interesting white paper, while you're reading it, you start thinking of more questions. That's why I was thrilled to get a chance speak with Mai Pham, MD, MPH. She is one of the paper's authors, a physician, and a trained health services researcher. Dr. Pham is a former chief innovation officer at the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). She also spent time at Anthem doing value-based care (VBC) work for the enterprise on a national level. Further, she's the parent of an autistic child and founded the Institute for Exceptional Care to transform health care for people with IDD (meaning intellectual developmental disabilities), which I'll get to in a second. Here's some highlights from my discussion with Dr. Pham: Markets get distorted when insane quantities of dollars rush in. I'm thinking about Medicare Advantage and all of its attendant suppliers right now. Think about all of the amazing brainpower captivated by figuring out how to upcode at scale, which, by the way, only a minority of the time corresponds to actual spend. Dr. Pham has some words on this. Attaining value-based care results and adoption has a big problem. As a policy maker, you can't just keep trying to sweeten the value-based care pot. You don't want to plow even more money into the system. So, at a certain point, we all have to get real and realize that for the cost-driving entities in this country—those IDNs (independent delivery networks) with huge market clout—to get on the VBC bandwagon, value-based care probably has to be a mandate; and it also will mean making FFS (fee for service) much less attractive. Thirdly—and here's something I never considered—commercial prices drive up Medicare prices. You have hospital systems pointing to growing disparities between commercial rates when they negotiate for higher Medicare rates, when the hospital systems themselves created those deltas with their private-sector negotiations. Lastly, we chat national versus local health care reform and about indie doctors and the “why” behind consolidation. It aligns quite a bit, our conversation in this health care podcast, with the insights from the show last week with Nicole Bradberry and Kelly Conroy (EP324).  The last 6 minutes of this podcast is Dr. Pham's insight about the scope and impact of not caring adequately for people with neurodevelopmental disabilities. We're talking about somewhere between 10 and 16 million people, as Dr. Pham notes for perspective. That's the number of new cancer cases each year. Collectively, we spend as a country somewhere between 1% and 2% of the GDP all in on this patient population. You can learn more at ie-care.org.  Hoangmai (Mai) H.

Dr. Sanjay Saint is the George Dock Professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Michigan and Chief of Medicine at the VA Ann Arbor Healthcare System. Dr Saint completed his Medical school at UCLA and Residency and Chief Residency in Internal Medicine at UCSF. He was a Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar at the University of Washington where he also received his Masters in Public Health. His research focuses on patient safety, implementation science, and medical decision-making; he has authored over 350 peer-reviewed papers. He serves on the editorial board of multiple peer-reviewed journals including the BMJ Quality & Safety and NEJM Catalyst. He has been awarded the Distinguished Mentor Award from the University of Michigan, and has received the National VA Physician of the Year Award. Our success in a career in medicine is heavily influenced by the mentors who we choose to surround ourselves with. But the challenge is finding and building relationships with said mentors. Today, Dr. Sanjay Saint teaches us the science and the art of finding a great mentor. The science being: The past is a great predictor of the future. Most great mentors will have a track record of positively impacting other mentees. The art is: Following our gut instincts, How do I feel when I'm in the presence of a potential mentor? Do I feel positive, supported, and seen? If the answer is yes, we should listen to our instincts—and trust our hearts. As Dr. Saint puts it, we've gotten this far as humans by trusting our instincts with individuals, whether it's with friendship, love, or business. Those instincts are finely honed—and we should respect and trust them. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Practice mindfulness during our hand wash. During that time, reflect on the way you have the ability to change the atmosphere in the room you are about to enter. And when you get into the patient's room, be fully present: Don't think about the previous or the next patient. Give that patient your time. 2. Everyone is an expert in something, and we can learn something from everyone. Pay attention to each interaction with another person—there is always something new to learn. 3. The key to finding a great mentor is a balance of science and art. Science in the way that the past is a great predictor of the future: Great mentors will likely have a great track record. And art is where our gut feelings will help us: How do we feel in a mentor's presence? If it's a positive feeling, trust that and move forward.

Kathlyn Fletcher, MD, MA, is a Professor of Medicine in the Division of General Internal Medicine, and the Director of the Internal Medicine Residency Program at Medical College of Wisconsin. Dr. Fletcher completed her medical school from University of Chicago and her residency in Internal Medicine from University of Chicago Hospitals. She then was a Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar at the University of Michigan. Dr. Fletcher has held a number of leadership positions including Section Chief of General Internal Medicine, and Director of Hospital medicine at Milwaukee VA Medical Center. Dr. Fletcher is active in a number of local and national bodies including the Society of General Internal Medicine and the Society of Hospital medicine, and is a recipient of numerous teaching and leadership awards including the 2013 Helen Dickie Woman Physician of the Year by Wisconsin State ACP, and the National Award for Scholarship in medical Education from the Society of General Internal Medicine. After reading Kim Scott's book, Radical Candor, Dr. Kathlyn Fletcher reframed her perspective on giving feedback. As someone who had previously been hesitant about telling students they needed to do better, Dr. Fletcher realized that to encourage others to improve is to truly care about them. Since then, Dr. Fletcher practices giving feedback in real time for her students and mentees. She takes advantage of small coaching moments that occur throughout the day as she guides her students. And while she gives positive feedback as much as possible, she recognizes that in order for it to resonate, she has a responsibility to create a safe environment for her learners. Dr. Fletcher recognizes how important it is for her students to be continually improving in order to reach the next level of competency, and she prioritizes leading with warmth, positivity, and encouragement. Pearls of Wisdom: 1. Know the three C's: Competence, character, and caring. In medicine, caring is all about the other person, and we need to pay more attention to care especially in a time of our life where it can be easy to be selfish. 2. Active feedback and encouragement—in real time—is the best way to not only improve as a physician, but it's a way for mentors to show mentees that they care about their growth. We also gain more trust when we are actively giving feedback. 3. By the nature of our profession, we are constantly living on the edge of burnout—a problem that is not likely to ever go away. So we have to learn how to deal with it proactively: This is where reflective writing, collegiality, and genuine personal interactions come in. 4. At the end of the day, medicine is a service industry. When we remember that our job is to serve others in their sometimes darkest moments, we will recenter with our purpose.
