Colleen Kavanagh – Innovation in Healthcare Access

Download the Show Audio Here

Show Topic:

“It’s no secret that our healthcare system is broken, and that people are having trouble accessing care,” says Colleen Kavanagh, who spent the first decade of her career working with hospitals to implement new technology and maximize profitability.

“But to solve this problem quickly, we’re asking the wrong questions, and we’re asking them of the wrong people.” In this episode, host CMA’s David Ciullo speaks with Colleen Kavanagh, CEO of SoulBeing, about Innovation in Healthcare Access: An Integrated Approach to Evidence Based Healthcare.

Learn about leveraging existing mechanisms to help your teams find healthcare services more easily and affordably. Consider an expanded view of healthcare services that incorporates all aspects of physical, mental and emotional health to provide truly integrated support, and empower your team and their families to be their healthiest, happiest selves.

About The Guest:

Colleen Kavanagh is the Founder and CEO of SoulBeing. She spent over a decade consulting with hospitals on how to run their imaging businesses more efficiently and profitably, and in the process discovered that over 70% of imaging patients were being treated for preventable conditions.

Now, she and her team at SoulBeing are on a mission to get people better access to care options outside of the hospital system, by designing an infrastructure to help keep people from getting sick, and managing symptoms and conditions more proactively and affordably.

Jeremy Vesta – Addressing the Hidden Cost of Insurance.

Show Topic:
Recent studies show that 31% of US healthcare costs can be directly attributed to “behaviorally influenced chronic conditions,” while 69% of costs are influenced by consumer behaviors.

  These statistics hold true for your workforce. The employees who walk through your door each day are managing more than just the workload; they have families, lives outside of work, and health conditions.

  Is there a way, however, that employers can commit to helping their employees understand their health conditions, embrace different treatment options and change their behaviors to positively influence chronic health conditions? The answer is yes; but it takes work.

  The good news, however, is that hard work has significant returns on not just your employees’ health, but also their commitment to your organization. In this episode of HR Power Hour, join Tawny Alvarez of Verrill as she speaks to Curally’s Chief Financial Officer, Jeremy Vesta, concerning addressing the hidden costs of insurance.

  In this episode Tawny and Jeremy will discuss the current issues employers are faced with concerning employees with chronic health conditions, the work that Curally has undertaken to provide employers with a path to respond to these challenges, and the positive long-term effects this strategy has on both employees and employers.

About The Guest:

Jeremy Vesta is Chief Financial Officer of Curally where he uses his expertise as an economist and his extensive business leadership background to empower companies to optimize their investment in their most valuable resource—their employees—through innovative strategies.

  Additionally, Jeremy is the Managing Director of Vesta Holdings, a company with diverse interests in the fresh beef industry. Among its ventures, Vesta Holdings is involved in beef manufacturing through Harmony Beef, a company established and run by Jeremy and his family.

  Before joining Vesta, he gained experience as a commodities trader at Bunge. One of Jeremy’s core beliefs is that to address the challenge of rising insurance costs, businesses must adopt new approaches that go beyond the surface-level factors like plan design, benefit providers, and coverage provided. Instead, the focus should be on identifying and resolving the underlying factors driving these costs. By doing so, business owners, benefit administrators, and HR leaders can effectively mitigate the impact of escalating insurance expenses.

Show Topic:

While so often we focus on the questions we cannot ask applicants during the job interview process, it’s time to flip the script and focus in on the questions we should be asking as well as how many common interview practices have damaging effects on applicants and their ability to successfully present themselves in interviews.

When looking at the process from the seat of the applicant, companies can better understand how to implement practices which will result in the right people being hired for the right position. In this episode of HR Power Hour, join co-host Tawny Alvarez as she talks to Lori Wallace, the founder of Career Ecology and a Social Innovator working to liberate heart-mindfulness within the challenging and often traumatizing job hunt as they discuss mindful interviewing and tips for Companies to identify the right people to meet human capital potential.

About The Guest:

Lori Wallace is the Founder and CEO of Career Ecology – a hub spot for Work-Life Empowerment. She’s mentored job seekers for over twenty years as the owner of her own search agency where she matched prominent hospital systems like Cedars Sinai, Kaiser Permanente, and Sutter Health to skilled and passionate professionals ranging from CEO to Lab Assistant.

But, Lori brings much more than meets the eye. She calls herself a “Work-Life Doula”. Out of the angst of 2016, Lori founded Career Ecology in order to, as she puts it, “help every human shed the old, awaken the imaginal, and fly free.” Lori has a degree in Psychology from UCLA and certifications from the Nurtured Heart Institute and with Mary Reynold’s Thompson’s Wild Soul facilitation. She brings a “practical + poetic” approach to work-life across all critical touch points, including job search, resume, interviewing, as well as the touch point to self.

Lori views the realm of “work” as the ideal entry point for radical initiation and healing in the world. It’s the modern-day “hero’s journey.”
