Imagine a world where health care's biggest problems collide with the world's best technology in a culture of transformation. We are excited to share the launch of the website for the Veale Initiative for Health Care Innovation where University Hospitals is building this kind of enabling ethos of transformational leadership and body of impactful project work.    “The Veale Initiative is revolutionizing the way we address our system’s most pressing problems,” says Brandon Cornuke, the inaugural Executive Director of the program, and Sr Director of Innovation, UH Ventures. "I couldn’t be prouder of our team and the amazing work they’re doing on behalf of our patients and caregivers."   "This is an innovative initiative to foster transdisciplinary collaboration within University Hospitals," says Kipum Lee, PhD, VP of Innovation & Product Strategy, UH Ventures, who helped architect the program and provides executive oversight and support. "We're excited to partner with the Veale Foundation and Peter Pronovost to shift healthcare from being 'less silos' and 'more systems' in the approach to human-centered care delivery and transformation."   https://lnkd.in/eRiB4-zv   David Sylvan, Sara Edwards, Brian Nelson, Srivishnu Pasumarthy, Patrick Runnels   #healthcaretransformation #problemidentification #transdisciplinarycollaboration #healthcareleadership #humancentereddesign

Day 3 of the Northstar Network LLC HBA Fellowship conference✅ An awesome day of discussions about healthcare equity and quality. Some defining statements: - "Health inequities exist through a complex system of upstream root causes, lived experiences, and healthcare ecosystem relationships." Yele Aluko MD, MBA, FACC, FSCAI. - "Efforts have failed to strategically address upstream drivers [of health inequities]. A differentiated strategic, holistic, and integrated approach is critical for impact." Yele Aluko MD, MBA, FACC, FSCAI. - "We need to get out of the habit of admiring the problem and start appreciating the process and buying into it." Robert Panzer - "Best practice implies there's no room for improvement. Perhaps we should call it a 'leading practice'" Michael Leonard - "We need to look at spaces outside of doctor's offices that we can influence. We need to change what we can and influence the rest." Joshua Weitz, MD
