Digital Health Strategy for Patient Centricity with Rado Andrian
This is a unique episode bringing a Digital Health Strategist to the podium. Rado endorses that digital is always a means to an end and not a means on itself - it helps health care professionals do their job better. It doesn't replace doctors or nurses, but can help them do their job better by bringing back time to the doctor-patient relationship and carving out nuisance admin bureaucracy. Co-creating digital innovation enforces collaboration - "we've been living too long in silos". Now, digital technology is a vector to capture insights and to bring in more perspective from all actors along the 5P value chain.
LetsTalkValue with Dr Jörg Goldhahn: creating value together with the NextGen of Medical Leaders
Today is a special episode very close to our podcast host's Verena Voelter's heart: Shaping a new culture of collaboration for and with young emerging doctors. No better guest than the Medical director of the Swiss based ETH school of bachelor medicine.
We discuss on both the system needs to create fertile environments to encourage creativity and out-of-the-box thinking, couple with the next generation of MDs picking up on these opportunites and become more pro-active in solution-finding and creativity.
This is an episode filled with practical example of what a modern Medical curriculum looks like! A must-hear for all Medical students, PhDs, residents and beyond (and teachers and lecturers as well for that matter)
*50* celebrating 50 episode of #LetsTalkValue with Collaborative Value Generation featuring Nienke Feenstra
Today we welcome one of our favorite guests and experts on the collaboration scene in health care --> Nienke Feenstra, GM Takeda in France. She was also recently featured at our #5PFlagship2023 event (direct link to the post production video here)
In this anniversary episode we're discussing practical ways, tips and tricks, on how to build bridges among key players along the 5P value chain: pharma - policy - provider - patients. It's a must-have for anyone who wants to get inspired that change in healthcare is indeed possible through a deep mindset and culture shift.
Learning from the best in #VBHC: Culture change for patient-centric health care
This episode is featuring the world's best clinic for the treatment of patients with prostate cancer - Dr Detlef Loppow @Martiniklinik is sharing the podium with our host Dr Verena Voelter, CEO 5P Health Care Solutions. A few sound bites that make this a unique opportunity to hear live from this leader in value-based health care transformation:
- mindset is key: people need to be enthusiastic about their field
- culture change: incentivize on outcomes "what can I do better for my patients today?"
- get the right people join the journey: recruitment and retention of key talent (doctors, nurses) and invest in creating new roles that are critical for VBHC success (case managers, care coordinators, IT specialists, data scientists, statisticians)
What can everyone do get started with a pilot? Start collecting data! Start by asking what do you want to change and collect these outcomes. This is what the Martiniklinik started doing in 1992 before it was even baptised and founded in 2004. Tune-in and share your thoughts. As always, feel free to like, share and engage.
LetsTalkValue with Medical Communication Professional Robert Matheis
Value in health care defined as <<bringing stakeholders together - early on - defining what best outcomes to achieve>>. There couldn't be a better way than to kickoff this 6th season of our LetsTalkValue podcast series, today with Rob Matheis, CEO of IMSPP. We speak about how linear & insular ways of working of the past have been replaced by connected & holistic cross-functional ways of working. Tune-in to hear how Rob brings in real-life example on how to make it happen. We also speak about the value of real-word data and patient-reported outcomes #RWD #PRO - two buzzwords these days that in our view belong into any comprehensive evidence generation plan early on! This episode isn't only a must for all SciComm and Publishing people, but anyone working in matrix teams as well as product development.
LetsTalkValue with Thomas Hefti, Angel investor
Today we look at the value chain from an early Startup perspective: innovation happens at the intersections, often between academia and business. This is where Thomas comes in. He emphasizes the importance of the '6th P' - which is passion. For a decision to be made on investments, the person presenting makes much to tip in favor. Show the passion, have a stake and show us how your Startup idea will change the lives of those who will use it. Go and talk to your endusers early and test it out! This works particularly well in the MedTech and Digital Health space. As a Startup leader, build your 'biotope' with various actors, don't only stay in your own tech space, and build a relationship anchored on purpose and trust with your investor community.
A must-hear episode for anyone working in the Startup space!
LetsTalkValue with Jennifer Clawson: patient centricity what does that really mean?
Curious about the link between individual focus on patient outcomes and improved system efficiencies and cost reduction? Then this is your episode! Listen to Boston Consulting Group's Jennifer Clawson, who leads their VBHC practice there, as she shares insights from her recently published book. As always, please share, like and engage to spread the word about #valuebasedhealthcare
LetsTalkValue with Dr Lesniak - working across intersections and transparent conversations
Managing different departments such as a clinical surgery department and a translational science group comes with its peculiar challenges. Dr Lesniak discusses his approach by telling us that it's really key to speak everyone's particular language - being a doctor seeing patients or a scientist working at a bench - comes with very different realities, pressures, and vocabulary. You need meet the people where they are. This also includes non-verbal components such as a way you show up given a business or a research context. #interests #relationships
We also discuss the importance of regular, privileged conferences where clinicians can discuss surgery cases in a transparent and honest way. Accepting everyone can make mistakes, but understanding the root causes to it, is what Dr Lesniak reminds us the airlines industry is doing very well. No reason why healthcare can't do the same. It's a critical piece in the #vbhc transformation: report in a transparent way the outcomes of patients.
Creating a culture of trust is what health care leaders can do along the the #5P value chain: providers - pharma - payers - policy - patients. Reach Dr Lesniak here https://www.linkedin.com/in/maciej-lesniak-51899b24/
LetsTalkValue with Dr Zeev Neuwirth and his latest book 'Beyond The Walls'
A deeply humanistic, practical, and specific book about the change that is possible in health care. Honored to welcome back Dr Neuwirth to the podium as we share similar deep conviction that change is indeed possible and we can pull back to the surface our intrinsic motivation to serve others - true for anyone working in health care. What does value mean to Zeev? Health and Experience on the journey to maintain and regain that health. Parts of it are also happening at home and parts of it are happening at the intersections of that patient journey. Tune in to this wonderful episode if you want to listen to the author as he gives a glimpse to the chapters and the practical guides you can expect when reading or listening to it.
LetsTalkValue: Collaborative Drug Development in discussion with Michele Schmidt, BSN, MPH
"You need to keep it front and center when you go to work every morning", says Michele Schmidt when she speaks on how much the focus on the patient is her North Star since she started her career as a nurse. We are talking about how we can move our mindset away from seeing barriers towards igniting opportunities for joint problem solving across the 5Ps. We discuss ample real-life examples from public-private partnerships in health care such as between academic study groups and pharmaceutical companies. Pro-actively reaching out to people outside of our comfort zone is a key success factor, be it regulators like the FDA or payers in various countries. Don't miss this episode to hear from a professional who knows how to manage matrix teams across functions - small and large!

Celebrating 40th Episode #LetsTalkValue with Dr Sanja Tomovska: The Importance of the Health Continuum
*** Celebrating 40 episodes of #LetsTalkValue ***
What a better topic than discussing the entire health lifespan: from earlylife to terminal care, from diagnosis to therapy, and from prevention to full cycle health care. Sanja is the best positioned to discuss this with us: how longevity topics impact not only a person's life, but society as a whole. Under the megatrends of #aging, #demographic changes, and increasing #chronic diseases, being able to predict and adapt behaviors early on are not only a nice-to-have. They are critical aspects for the decades to come. Make sure to tune into this very special episode. As always, if you like it, please like it !

LetsTalkValue with Prof Ana Paula Etges: paying for outcomes that matter
Now we are talking real stuff! Value-Based Health Care, Patient-Centricity and Integrated Care Pathways are great and the right thing to do. But aligning the cost structure behind that value chain of clinical activities is what makes the value equation complete: VALUE = OUTCOMES / COST. Someone who knows a great deal about TD-ABC (time dependent activity bound costing) is Ana Etges. She is the Co Founder of the TD-ABC International consortium that develops and deploys standard set of measures that everyone can start using. Make sure you don't miss out on this episode and follow Ana on Social Media and read her scientific publications. Much of the content can also be found in the podcast host's book 'It Takes 5 to Tango - from Competition to Cooperation in Health Care' - focus chapter 3.

LetsTalkValue with Dr. Ahunna: digital solutions to drive better patient outcomes
Value-Based Health Care is a buzz word to many. Making it real is what this episode is about: Ahunna Okwubunka-Anyim, MD MBA is the Medical director of IORA Health and a passionata about #VBHC and #DIGITALHEALTH. She beautifully explains in simple words and around practical patient examples what the current disaster of silo-mentality and lack of interoperability produces: poor patient outcomes and burned out health care workers. She describes how Apps, integrated EHRs, and DTx (digital therapeutics) can make the shared decision making in multidisciplinary teams a reality. It's not only an intuitively right thing to do, but leads to saving costs, too. A topic I will discuss in the next episode.

LetsTalkValue with Prof. Gilles Salles: running successful consortia in science and medicine
Welcome back to this 3rd season in the fall 2022. I cannot imagine a better kickoff than welcoming Gilles Salles on the podium. An accomplished clinician researcher, group leader and cancer doctor, he shares some of his wisdom of running successful collaborations. Across continents, across silos in health care and always for the North Star of delivering better therapies and therefore more value to patients. His recommendations are simple: be clear on mutual expectations, define & repeat a common goal, and always put that common purpose above your own interests. The magic formula? 1+1=3 at least ! Secondly, a gentle reminder that phenomenal success in cancer care, namely lymphoma care, has only been possible through collaboration across science and industry. He gives a kudos to all of us in the 5P ecosystem - and I join him with that salute. A not-to-miss for any researcher, clinician, patient and pharma leader.
2 YR ANNIVERSARY 5P Health Care Solutions® and #LetsTalkValue with 5P experts
Delivering outcomes that matter and results that are important to patients is not only the right thing to do, but also the key to unlock value for all actors along the 5P value chain: providers - pharma - payers - policy - and patients. However, rising costs, unbearable inefficiencies and waning quality are getting in our way. The only way to master these hurdles is by breaking down silos and by building bridges through cooperation. It an honor to welcome five top experts and health care agents to discuss ways to make this a reality. You don't want to miss this episode as we say "Don't take No! for an answer".

#LetsTalkValue with Charles Barker: the 7 Steps to Effective Collaboration
If you ever wanted 'How the heck can I convince this guy' of your position - then this is a must hear episode. Charles Barker is an alumni of the Harvard Negotiation Project and a 30 years expert in 5P Multi Party Collaboration in Health Care. If there is one leader who can help us learn that skill of moving from 'convincing' to 'persuading' through joint interests, is it Chuck Barker. The full episode as annotaed video and slides is also available on the 5P Health Care Solutions homepage.
#LetsTalkValue on precision medicine & smart clinical trials with Nicolas Leupin
We all know what our issue is: waste in the system. Inefficiencies are driving cost, poor patient outcomes and frustration with all key actors: providers, pharma, payers, policymakers & patients. Today, I am excited to talk with Dr Nicolas Leupin (CMO at Molecular Partners) about his notion of value & the key to overcome waste. "People need to talk to each other!" he tells me when he explains that we collectively need to ask the right questions to the right people. Often they sit outside of our own expertise though. Drug developers talking to doctors, to software & data engineers ('don't forget the IT guy!'), data privacy lawyers, patients & payers at the same time! When did you do that for the last time? It's about courage & creativity to take action. But foremost, it's about trust, Nicolas reminds us. Put the patient at the center of your interest. Don't forget to ask them early when you design a trial - you may miss your goal and spend a lot of money. "Patient poor. Data rich" is his mantra to maximize as little as needed patients in a clinical trial while utilizing as much of pre-existing data as possible. For this to happen, what we need are effective software intraoperability and trustworthy partnerships. Like this episode? Don't forget to like wherever you saw our series.
#LetsTalkValue "Prozessoptimierung am Patientenpfad" mit Björn Zeien
Heute wieder eine Ausgabe auf deutsch. Björn ist seit mehr als 2 Jahrzehnten ein ausgiebigerer Netzwerker, der im Grossen & Ganzen denkt und dementsprechend handelt. «Sektoren haben keine Berechtigung mehr. Sie finden nicht mehr statt.» Um die gefragten Akteure aus den 5P an den Schnittstellen zusammenzubringen, hat er deshalb das health_h Netzwerk aus Experten im Gesundheitswesen gegründet. «Netzwerken ist das Finden von Andersdenkenden.» Um die Probleme der heutigen Zeit zu lösen, stellt er treffend fest: «man sich fortan mit Personen auseinandersetzen, die man gar nicht kennt. Bislang kannte man sich innerhalb seiner eigenen Zunft, das war bequem!» Im hyperkomplexen Gesundheitswesen geht es jedoch nur, wenn Alle an einem Strick ziehen. «Es ist völlig egal, ob ein Problem aufgetreten ist. Es geht darum, den gesamten Prozess entlang des Patientenpfades zu analysieren. Es geht nicht um das Produkt (aka es zu verkaufen), sondern darum, was vorher & nachher passiert.» Sehr spannend! Es lohnt sich, denn Björn hat einige konkrete Beispiele parat. Wenn Euch diese Episode gefällt, danken wir Euch für Eure Unterstützung durch liken & sharen.
#LetsTalkValue with Caitlin Masters, a practical expert on value-based care from the provider & payer perspective
Value emerges when we collaborate to success, united in a common purpose. What a wonderful summary from someone who has done this in real-life: in this session, Caitlin Masters, MPH, shares her learnings from implementing outcomes-based reward models in team-based care models both in the provider & payer worlds. Her keys to success? 1) align on single payment policies, don't leave the patient outside of the care; 2) readjust power balance and invest in education & health literacy to patients and other stakeholders; consider the 'whole' person - medical, behaviors, socioeconomic; 3) modernize reimbursement structures. We speak about how we can open sealed doors, with payers and others. 'Help me understand how I can help you' is a magic door opener to collaborative, mutual-gain value creation. Tune in and send us your thoughts on what works and what doesn't!
#LetsTalkValue with Fred van Eennenaam: Next Gen VBHC
Prof van Eennenaam has been a long-time pioneer in the field of value-based health care. In today's episode he shares his real-life examples, passion & thoughts for what works in real-life and what his plans are for the future. It's a total must-hear for anybody working on implementing this new way of working: putting outcomes & results that matter to patients first, creating cross-functional teams around that goal, aligning activities needed to achieve these best outcomes for patients, and lastly synergizing around measurements & rewards. This not only increases patient experience, but team satisfaction. We are talking about how to implement VBHC in multimorbid conditions and share real models on how to bring this theory into practical reality for the interested health care leader.
#LetsTalkValue with Craig Horbinski: Views from a neuropathologist on the importance of trust & communication
Prof Craig Horbinski is a world-known expert in his field of neuropathology and widely known by an audience on Social Media for his educational posts. He advocates for the willingness to engage, volunteering information and break down silos in real life. On the podium, he tells us how this works in his day job as a pathologist: using EMRs to get the best out of integrating clinical information, radiology results & others; engaging live as the 'goalkeeper' at the intersection of diagnostics & treatments with his colleagues in clinical tumorboards. Compared to 10yrs ago, he believes that EMR really made his work more effective than at the times of pen & paper charts. For his view to the future, he is clear about 2 bottlenecks: we need to get better at communication lines with payers and at accelerating the interoperability of systems. Will say, IT & software programs need to be compatible between hospitals, GP practices, labs & other stakeholders for AI & ML to play out their full potential. Many calls for action to all of us - let's take that one next step!
#LetsTalkValue with Dr Zeev Neuwirth: Overcoming Barriers to Reframing Health Care
Dr Neuwirth is a renown health care leader and executive who restlessly drives change towards a humanistic, patient-centered system of health that values care & outcomes. He shares views & advise deep from his wealth of experience and this is a must-hear episode for anyone who wishes to be part of the solution rather than the problem! Zeev is such an important role model for many of us who share the journey of transforming health care. We talk about how critically important it is to refocus our mindset & reward system on our ultimate customer: the patient. We discuss what we can learn from marketing; the role of modernizing clinical care models; the importance for social determinants of health; the role of policy & political administrations; and how segmentation of patient populations can actually deliver that goal of driving more value to patients - and the system! Curious? Then tune-in today and share your thoughts on https://www.reframehealthcare.org/ and contact us at https://5phealthcaresolutions.com/.

#LetsTalkValue with Ilka Dekan: Innovative Cross-Sector Collaborations. Heute auf Deutsch.
Dies ist er der Erste von 2 Podcasts auf deutsch, in denen ich mit Visionären im Gesundheitswesen spreche, die völlig neue '5P' Konzepte in Stein meisseln und somit zu einer echten neuen Realität beisteuern.
Ilka Dekan ist Pionierin auf ihrem Gebiet. Als langjährige Führungskraft im 'Payer P', hat sie früh innovative Ideen bei Krankenversicherungen umgesetzt. Heute ist sie eine gefragte Podcasterin und Expertin für den Wandel im Gesundheitswesen und Leiterin der INNO3 platform, welche Akteure aus den 5Ps an einen Tisch bringt. Probleme ansprechen, Lösungen gemeinsam entwickeln. Das ist ihr Motto. Stets den Patienten als Kunden und 'consumer' im Zentrum halten ist die Essenz des #valuebasehealthcare und des strukturellen Wandels, den es braucht um 'outcomes' und nicht 'services' als Anreize in den Vordergrund zu rücken. Gesundheit findet überall statt: zuhause, am Arbeitsplatz, im Auto zB. Wir sprechen über branchenübergreifende Ansätze - zB was können wir von der Automobilindustrie lernen? Wir sprechen über den 'digitalen Zwilling', um personalisierte Medizin umzusetzen. Zum Schluss teilt Ilka ihre Vision von unserem Podcast in 10 Jahren, wenn sie zurückschaut und welchen Weg wir bis dahin gegangen sein werden. Spannend!
