Amir has spent his career seeking novel ways to increase access to care, cut costs, and advance population health. "The best innovation happens when you can innovate or disrupt from within the ecosystem," he says. Amidst the backdrop of conventional health systems and organizations, there is a remarkable surge in innovation. Notably, he observes transformations fueled by creative partnerships and inspired by the change taking place around them. In this episode of WittKieffer's Converge Cast podcast series, Rubin talks with WittKieffer's Michael Castleman and Shelly Carolan discuss the evolving and increasingly convergent roles of value-based care, new healthcare entrants, and digital health, as well opportunities and challenges of start-ups in today's market. Questions they consider: How do you enable innovative healthcare solutions with so many stakeholders-namely consumers, employers, clinicians and payers? In this current market, what makes an attractive, deserving healthcare investment? What role do insurers play in innovation? What role will AI and related technologies play in healthcare's future? To this last question, Rubin considers himself a "techno-optimist" – and it's clear he's an optimist on the potential for future with better, cheaper, more available healthcare.
