Insights: Navigating to Value-based Care - A Patient-First Approach

In this episode, we’re joined by Thom Walsh, PhD, healthcare consultant and professor at The Dartmouth Institute and University of Tulsa. Thom previously appeared on the podcast after releasing his first book on value-based care in partnership with MGMA back in 2017 and returns for another lively discussion now that his second edition — “Navigating to Value-Based Outcomes” — has officially hit the shelves.
