Arrive Health's Kyle Kiser on Clearing a Way For Better Health, Access, & Engagement
Kyle Kiser is the CEO of Arrive Health, a virtual pharmacy assistant. This tool is used as a care team tool to automate outreach to patients, drive adherence, and improve quality and readmissions. Kyle's goal is to make connections beyond just pharmacy, particularly in the realm of specialty medications, and to make it easier for patients and providers to access the tool. The core mission remains the same, but the new capabilities allow for more frequent interactions to occur between providers and patients. The main organizations using the tool are small practices, large organizations, and hospital networks. This tool has allowed for the patient to get answers from their provider more often than not, and has been beneficial in driving adherence and value-based care.

Putting Medical Professionals in Charge of Their Care with Dr. Candace Walker of Flowing Life Direct Health
Chris welcomes Dr. Candace Walker to his podcast, Healthcare Americana. Dr. Walker is a practicing direct primary care physician and owner of Flowing Life Direct Health in Atlanta, Georgia. She has been utilizing a business model to provide healthcare to her community. Christopher asked how the practice was going, to which Dr. Walker replied that it was going great. She is living her dream and is happy to wake up every day to her passion. Christopher concluded the conversation by emphasizing the importance of putting patients first and restoring trust in American healthcare. This conversation focuses on the experience of a doctor who has adopted the direct primary care model. Through this model, Dr. Walker is able to practice medicine in a way that is more patient-centered and free from the restrictions of health systems. Although the doctor is still quite new to the model, she is learning the business side of it and has already seen the positive impact it has had on patient experience. Patients who come in to see the doctor are often those who have not been able to get the answers they need from prior experiences, but through the direct primary care model, the doctor is able to provide them with the understanding and empowerment they need for their health. Chris and Candace discuss the importance of having control over one's own health, and how it is an important factor in the fulfillment of a doctor's work. When a doctor is able to help a patient attain their health goals, it is a very satisfying experience for both parties. Dr. Walker then goes on to discuss the art of doctoring, which is the intersection of art and science in the practice of medicine. She then talks about their experience in the last six months of practicing in their new Direct Primary Care (DPC) practice and how it has differed from their patient interactions before. The speaker mentions that they have had to learn the business side of health care quickly, and also have come to understand what they do and don't want in their practice. They have been able to tweak certain systems that were aggravating in the traditional healthcare system and help people understand the different model of health care that comes with DPC. Dr. Candace Walker, a physician and owner of Flowing Life Direct Health, discussed the public perception of physicians and why the current healthcare system is not set up to support a caring, intelligent approach. She believes that 99% of doctors would like to spend more time with their patients, but due to time constraints and certain metrics, that is not always possible. Walker also encourages other physicians to remember the power of their training and to consider other models of practice that can fulfill their needs. She likens the current system to a 1984-style mindset where doctors are often commoditized and reduced to a list of names.
