How do we actually drive something like that versus crisis here, crisis averted, crisis here, crisis averted?
That's great.
When you think about how you today think about productivity in your role versus how frontline folks in your organization think about productivity, is there a difference in those things?
You know, one of the things that some of my colleagues and I talk about is the fact that there are many parts of health care where the fundamental chassis has not changed, but we just add more and more to that chassis.
So primary care is one example, right, where if you look 50 years ago.
that interaction with the patient and the physician in that doctor's office was happening.
And if you look now, that same interaction is happening, maybe even shorter time periods, but the fundamental chassis is there.
Do you think that there is a fundamental unlock there?
Or do you think that, you know, we just need to think about healthcare differently?
If you step back and think about everything that the Brigham has done and everything that you've led here, what are you most proud of for what Brigham Health has been able to achieve in terms of productivity enhancing initiatives?
That is quite a testament.
Ron, I'd love to ask you a little bit about capital and capital investments, which are another theme in healthcare over the last decade have been significant at this system as they have at other systems across the country.
How should hospital executives such as yourself and your peers think about large capital technology investments in the context of productivity?
What would that look like to you if you take the example of, say, a supplier of capital equipment?
One of the other debates that I think several institutions like yours are having is around the question of whether you need to bring in leadership or views from outside healthcare.
And perhaps whether there are other industries who have done a better job at solving these problems and how can we learn from those?
I'd love to hear your perspective on that.
Are there one or two other things that you think are especially interesting to you as you think about productivity enhancing initiatives that you are undertaking or that perhaps you've seen elsewhere in the industry?
There's a critical person aspect to it, and I think you also raised a really important data aspect to it.
One of the issues is how do you actually get the right data to the right people?
