    I pity the healthcare leader who doesn't listen to the HEALTHCARE RAP! I need my flava of the week, to stay in the FLOW. Seriously Jared continues to do an amazing job with this insightful, innovative, energy filled, entertaining podcast. He has super guests, keeps things real and causal, and always delivers value. Not only is the content stellar, but he production value is solid as well. Please keep it going.

  • Rap battle impact

    Jared & Peter really but some effort into this. If you are listening this to copy their idea and thoughts you might be missing what I feel might be the point they are trying to get across. Thank you guys for putting this out there! You had an impact for me that will be huge and I don’t think it was your intention, but for people looking for a way to change your thinking as you said it helps to empathize!!! Thanks again!!!

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

AHIMA’s New Framework for Building Patient Trust (#533)
Q: What is the first step in the nine-step framework and why is it foundational?
The first step is cultivating a culture and environment that supports trust across the organization, making trust a strategic priority and ensuring the organization allocates resources to understand and address communities' trust concerns and barriers.
AHIMA’s New Framework for Building Patient Trust (#533)
Q: Can you give us a little bit about the background, how you authored the white paper, and the approach to things?
The authors describe a multi-year effort to explore how collecting and sharing social determinants of health data can improve outcomes, building on existing trust frameworks, gathering external feedback, and emphasizing both data governance and consent issues before finalizing the nine-step framework.
Reframing Thought Leadership in Health & Wellness (#534)
Q: What's a practical tip for aligning sales and marketing around thought leadership?
Capture common questions and frustrations from the sales team, translate them into short-form, customer-centric content, and ensure the marketing team can act quickly to produce assets that sales can share without seeming pushy or salesy.
Reframing Thought Leadership in Health & Wellness (#534)
Q: What role does distribution play in a successful B2B healthcare podcast strategy?
Distribution is critical; production alone isn't enough. Repackaging content into clips, short-form videos, and articles, plus leveraging networks and conferences, helps reach decision-makers who might not engage with a full episode via email alone.
Reframing Thought Leadership in Health & Wellness (#534)
Q: How should brands approach content to avoid sounding like AI-generated marketing?
Use your own voice, customize wording, and inject personality. Avoid generic templates or over-polished presentations; include authentic stories, behind-the-scenes insights, and occasional humor to stand out while remaining professional.
