What keeps you up at night?
Margin compression. Labor scarcity. The sudden arrival of AI. For healthcare executives, the calculus of leadership has fundamentally shifted.
We’ve moved beyond traditional operational challenges into an era of structural disruption. Consumer expectations are evolving rapidly, regulatory mandates are tightening, and the transition to value-based care is forcing organizations to rewrite their revenue strategies. The question for the C-suite is no longer just how to survive the disruption, but where to allocate capital and attention first.
In the new podcast Health Uncapped, host Darshan Bachhawat presses healthcare leaders to go beyond surface-level talking points. Each episode isolates a single, critical economic, policy, or market issue, unpacking the unvarnished realities of the industry and the strategic bets executives are making to secure their organizations’ futures.
As Chief Revenue Officer at Phamily, Darshan Bachhawat has spent the last 17 years building healthcare companies and advising organizations on how to adapt to market shifts.
“I have the privilege of sitting down with forward-thinking executives at leading organizations to look at what is coming around the corner,” says Bachhawat. “Right now, we are seeing an unprecedented convergence of macroeconomic and technological factors. Health Uncapped is designed to capture those closed-door conversations and bring them to the leaders who are actively trying to build better healthcare models.”
Health Uncapped skips the basic overviews to deliver tactical, high-level intelligence from executives managing these crises firsthand. Early conversations include:
The End of Easy Risk Adjustment: Eric Pfleger, MBA (Chief Population Health Officer, Southeast Primary Care Partners) details why the OIG is bypassing payers to target provider organizations directly for coding enforcement, and why true cost-curve reduction is the only viable path forward in value-based care.
Defending Brand Equity in the AI Era: Chrisie Scott, MBA (Chief Marketing Officer, Virtua Health) outlines how to protect patient trust against the rise of AI misinformation and healthcare disruptors. As the steward of the 14th most trusted healthcare brand in the U.S., she makes the business case for compassionate, human-centric branding as a strategic imperative.
Hedging Volatility in the Shift to Value: Mike Sisti, MBA (Administrative Director of Managed Care, Silver Cross Hospital) audits the ongoing financial instability in the sector and shares frameworks for building institutional resilience amidst shifting value-based models.
Each of our guests brings a wealth of leadership experience, insights that help surface the most important aspects of big issues, and creative strategies to protect and strengthen their organizations.
Health Uncapped premieres Thursday, October 15, featuring Eric Pfleger’s breakdown of the new risk adjustment landscape. If your organization operates in a value-based model—or is evaluating the transition—this is required listening.
