Why value-based care is the most misunderstood concept in healthcare.

Value-based care, which prioritizes patient outcomes over the quantity of services provided, is often misunderstood due to its complex and multifaceted nature, as well as the significant changes it requires in healthcare delivery and payment systems. This has led to challenges in implementing and scaling value-based care initiatives across the healthcare industry.

When Community Health Care Missions Fail

I arrived at Dallas Love Field by private aircraft in the Fall of 1984. I was there interviewing for a job in venture capital. I am quite sure today that, at the time, I had never seen how the super-success class moved around. There was no comparison between the faux-leather in my Chevrolet Malibu and the imported leather I didn’t want to leave behind as we taxied into the flight base operation. I was there to meet a Texas icon, who I would later realize to be among the most influential mentors in my life. It was not hard to be impressed. The Highland Park penthouse. The grand portrait of him looming over me. Not surprisingly, a little brass plaque indicated it was painted by James Anthony Wills the artist who had painted President Richard Nixon that same year. The Bible on his desk was a subtle reminder this man had his priorities in the right place. The appreciation plaques from dozens of his philanthropic causes lined his bookshelf.

The Science Behind Habits: Why AI may come to understand you better than you

The article explores the science behind habits and how artificial intelligence (AI) is being used to analyze and predict human behavior, including the formation and maintenance of habits. With advances in AI technology, it is becoming increasingly possible for AI systems to understand individuals' habits better than they do themselves, which could have significant implications for personalization and decision-making in various industries.

Welcome to Digital Health's Future: Meet Your Digital Twin

Digital Health is one of the fastest growing technologies in healthcare. Edge devices, or remote digital electronics, can measure patient progress, actively or passively, and instantly send those signals to care providers. This data, collected by patients, introduces real-world evidence in "digital twin" science that can predict which characteristics may determine outcome success, or failure.
