In the 80th episode of Burning Platform, we host Dr. Geeta Nayyar (“Dr.G”), SVP and Chief Medical Officer at Salesforce
Jujhar Singh, EVP & GM, Salesforce Industries recently gave us an update on Salesforce’s health and life sciences cloud from their Dreamforce event.
With Dr. G, the conversation is more about how to fix US healthcare – we spend a fifth of our GDP on that sector and our health outcomes don’t reflect that. She identifies a slew of areas she would prioritize for tackling
We talk about how most enterprises turned on a dime at the start of COVID and how McKinsey says if we can sustain that intensity, we may have the most innovative decade ever. And whether that is likely to happen in healthcare, given its ossified nature.
We talk about the promise and frustrations of electronic medical records. We discuss why public health performed inconsistently during the pandemic and how we can build public trust in those institutions
Healthcare is stubbornly regional, even country specific in medical practices, regulations, even payer/provider structures and how we can move to benchmark more across countries. We talk about a consumer-led movement transforming healthcare and a proactive focus on wellness versus the traditional focus on treating symptoms.
Dr. G covers an incredible amount of ground in around 20 minutes. Must see TV!
