Economically Improving the Collaboration Between Payers and Providers w/ Dr. Kenneth Schaecher

Who owns the fiduciary responsibility between insurance and physicians? Could the answer include both? This episode includes a fantastic conversation about the perspective of larger economics within these roles. 

Today’s guest is Dr. Kenneth Schaecher, the Interim Chief Medical Officer at the University of Utah Health Plan. Not only does he break down current ideas of improvement, but also the history behind the relationship of the payer and physicians. 

Join us as we further discuss:

•  The dynamics of under-utilization and over-utilization of patient testing
•  How monitoring testing affects all of us economically 
• Why values-based fees are the current and future wave of costs
