From the beginning of my career, my professional purpose has been to humanize healthcare. This personal mission was born out of my deep frustration with the incremental progress and subpar outcomes we’ve achieved over the past few decades. But, my approach has been to focus on the solutions, not the problems. To that end, I’ve been looking for positive deviance, seeking out those individuals and organizations that are creating demonstrable transformative change. Over the past decade, I’ve conducted hundreds of in-depth interviews with exemplars leading the way in creating a new healthcare. The intent of this podcast is to amplify their voices, share their stories and redirect the resources in American healthcare delivery toward solutions, not the status quo.
