"As devastating as the #COVID-19 pandemic has been, I do not believe it's the worst pathogen we're going to see," says @drcharitydean, CEO and Co-Founder of @ThePubHealthCo. She believes an even greater threat is coming and our healthcare system is no better prepared for it at this point. @AmerPhysGrps President and CEO @DonCrane talks with Dr. Dean about the pressing need for developing technology and software that gives real-time intelligence to identify and deal quickly with emerging infectious diseases. Dr. Dean is a keynote speaker at the #APGAC21 meeting, December 9-11, in San Diego. #publichealth #pandemic

We need to stop the separate and unequal system of funding and access to healthcare for our low-income, underserved communities, says Elaine Batchlor, MD, MPH, CEO of MLK Community Healthcare @yourMLKCH. Dr. Batchlor talks with @AmerPhysGrps President and CEO @DonCrane about why simply adding more people to #Medicaid without correcting the payment disparity between #Medicare and Medicaid won't give people adequate access to quality medical care. Listen to this frank and straightforward discussion about how the provider reimbursement system is a good example of structural racism and why we must change it to achieve #healthequity. #SDOH

Humility is the watchword when it comes to making assumptions about #COVID19 because every new piece of data often upends what we thought we knew about the virus, says @Bob_Wachter, Chair of the UCSF Department of Medicine, and one of the most respected medical voices in the nation today. Join APG President and CEO @DonCrane as he talks with Dr. Wachter about the likelihood of COVID-19 vaccine boosters, what characteristics healthcare systems need to handle the next pandemic, and why artificial intelligence is going to be the biggest disruptor to healthcare. @UCSFMedicine @AmerPhysGrps #AI #populationhealth
