The Break Room

IN EPISODE TWENTY-FIVE of The Break Room, we discuss issues in women's healthcare, such as ways to optimize the patient experience for women, tools to offset the OB-GYN shortage, and the state of value-based care. Our guest is Melissa Montague, Vice President and General Manager, Privia Women's Health and Pediatrics. 

In this episode, we examine the challenges providers face in transitioning to value-based care and share tips to avoid common mistakes. Our guests are Rick Foerster, Senior Vice President of Value-Based Operations at Privia Health, and Sam Starbuck, Vice President of Privia Quality Network, a high-performance accountable care organization. 

We’re in the midst of a data and technology revolution, yet healthcare — the place where this change could truly help people the most — lags behind the market. Clinical informatics seeks to close this gap and make life better for patients and providers. Nele Jessel, MD, is our guest and will discuss clinical informatics' power to elevate the "clinical voice" and improve EHRs.
