The Biden Administration is facing a set of unprecedented healthcare challenges as COVID-19 rages on. Americans covered by Medicare and Medicaid have been disproportionately affected by the pandemic, and among this population, patients living with diabetes face even more dire circumstances. What policies will turn this trend around? And how should health plans, employers, and health systems prepare? Few people are better positioned to share these insights than Don Berwick.
Dr. Berwick was previously the head of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, nominated by President Barack Obama, and CEO of the Institute for Healthcare Improvement. Over the course of his career, he pioneered several bold initiatives to transform healthcare, including the 100,000 Lives Campaign, and 5 Million Lives Campaign.
