    CommonSpirit Health ACO, Mount Sinai, Bloom Healthcare, White-Wilson Medical Center, & NightingaleMD: Reclaiming Time & Value in Chronic Care
    Apr 7 2026

    Chronic care isn't failing because of strategy. It's breaking down in execution.

    In this episode of Bright Spots in Healthcare, host Eric Glazer brings together provider leaders to explore a critical issue: the loss of time, attention, and clinical capacity to inefficient workflows instead of patient care.

    This conversation highlights how organizations are making structural changes to reduce friction, improve follow-up, and build more sustainable chronic care models.

    🎯 What you'll learn:
    • Why chronic care breaks down in workflow, not strategy
    • How leading providers reduce administrative burden
    • What changes when documentation stops dominating care
    • How follow-up systems are redesigned to close care gaps
    • How augmented care models expand capacity without replacing human care

  • Essence Healthcare and Humana: Moving from Episodic Care to Longitudinal Outcomes

    Essence Healthcare and Humana: Moving from Episodic Care to Longitudinal Outcomes
    Mar 31 2026
    In this Bright Spots in Healthcare episode, host Eric Glazer brought together payer and provider leaders to examine a major shift underway in specialty care. Historically, specialty models have been built around episodic intervention, stepping in after a condition has progressed. But as organizations take on greater accountability for outcomes and cost, that model is becoming harder to sustain. The conversation explored how AI, earlier signal detection, and more connected care models can help organizations identify risk sooner, guide members more effectively, and support better outcomes over time. Our guests include: Saria Saccocio, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Essence Healthcare Ross Lagerblade, Vice President, Value Based Strategies, Humana Mary O'Connor, MD, Chief Medical Officer & Co-Founder, Vori Health Together, they explored: How specialty care is evolving from reactive, episode-based intervention to models built around continuous visibility and earlier action How organizations are identifying risk that never shows up in traditional data, and what it takes to surface and act on those blind spots How leading plans are redesigning the member experience to create clearer, more guided pathways through complex specialty care journeys What it looks like to use AI and new data sources to scale outreach, triage, and coordination without increasing operational burden How clinically grounded models are ensuring members are directed to the right level of care at the right time, avoiding unnecessary escalation What it takes to align care delivery, incentives, and measurement around sustained outcomes rather than isolated interventions This episode offers an inside look at how leaders are building more proactive, coordinated specialty care models, and what it takes to make them work in practice.

Drawing on real-world implementation, it highlights how combining clinical expertise with data, AI, and coordinated care pathways can shift specialty care from reactive treatment to continuous management. Inside, you'll find insights on: Extending specialty care beyond traditional encounters to support members earlier in their journey Designing clinically grounded care pathways that guide members to the right level of care at the right time Using data, wearables, and AI to surface risk that is not visible in traditional workflows Reducing unnecessary escalation, procedures, and downstream cost through earlier intervention Building scalable models that combine centralized coordination with physician-led care delivery Why longitudinal accountability is becoming essential as expectations for outcomes, experience, and cost continue to rise To request your copy, reach out to show producer Nicole Roberts at nroberts@brightspotsventures.com Thank You to Our Episode Partner, Vori Health By combining a physician-led care model with data-driven insights and longitudinal support, Vori Health is helping extend specialty care beyond episodic encounters and into continuous, whole-person care.
