Decoding Healthcare

Saving lives with data sharing and $10 sketch pads

Episode Summary

We drill down to the local level to see what happens when traditional competitors decide to connect care across a community network.

Episode Notes

As the adage goes, all healthcare is local. In this episode we turn our focus to Trenton, New Jersey where an experiment in data sharing and institutional collaboration is putting high-risk patients at the center of care. We speak to Dr. Kemi Alli, CEO of Henry J. Austin Health Center about the Trenton Health Team initiative and how community networks can save lives.
