Healthcare Upside/Down: Enabling Family Chief Health Officer with Kristin Begley
S1E6: Enabling Family Chief Health Officer with Kristin Begley, Chief Commercial Officer for Wildflower Health, and host Dr. Nick. Does the healthcare system know you? Do they really know you in the same way that Amazon, Pandora or Netflix does? Are you like me and find yourself drawn to the ‘recommended for you’ section on websites to see what else might be of interest or relevant to your life and world? In healthcare the system is not only tone deaf but many times a one size fits all approach with little customization. The family Chief Health Officer is an integral part of solving our health and wellness problems. For many of the underserved communities and groups like the Medicare mums by the time any support services and groups are aware the opportunity to intervene and make a difference might be long past. Finding these individuals early enough and identifying their personal Chief Health Officer in their family group, connecting the dots, and empowering these individuals makes for better health, better outcomes and lower costs of care. Your better pill to swallow is to enable the positive impact of the family network in your health community. If that’s your family then supporting and integrating that individual to empower them. For healthcare systems and payors, it means facilitating that network. Drop the barriers, oftentimes placed in the false name of HIPAA – if the individual authorizes access of their information to someone else, another system or partner that process has to be so easy even a 5 year old could do it and it has to happen quickly.
