Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Business of Healthcare Podcast, Episode 136: Pharmaceutical Pricing 101
Q: Can you explain in basic terms the drug pricing model and who the players are?
There are essentially two transactions: the physical distribution and the net payment. Manufacturers sell to wholesalers at a discount, wholesalers sell to pharmacies, and pharmacies sell to patients, with the insurance plan via the PBM determining coverage and rebates that affect the final price. Rebates from manufacturers to PBMs influence formulary decisions and ultimately the price seen by patients.
The Business of Healthcare Podcast, Episode 135: Hybrid Healthcare
Q: What exactly is hybrid healthcare and why has it become a focus of US healthcare transformation?
Hybrid healthcare is the integration of human care with technology to deliver services more cost-effectively and with greater access. The approach expanded during the pandemic as providers used screens and remote methods to stay connected with patients, and it has continued as technology, AI, and ambient data capture reduce the burden on clinicians while expanding reach and personalization.
The Business of Healthcare Podcast, Episode 134: Employer-Focused Wellness
Q: What does it look like for an employee using Levanto?
Employees access Levanto through the My Baylor Scott & White Health app or web experience, unlocking premium features when sponsored by their employer, with access tailored to clinical appropriateness and personal history.
The Business of Healthcare Podcast, Episode 134: Employer-Focused Wellness
Q: How does Levanto coordinate with a employer's existing health insurance plan?
Levanto onboards with the employer, uses the existing health plans for coverage, and conducts care through the employer's claims framework when additional care is needed, avoiding a separate budgeting mechanism and aligning with in-network providers where possible.
The Business of Healthcare Podcast, Episode 134: Employer-Focused Wellness
Q: Are you using AI or not at this stage?
AI is used in two main areas: back-end operations to improve clinician efficiency with summarized patient histories and patient-facing features that personalize and streamline care, such as AI-assisted food tracking and virtual physical therapy. The approach is AI plus human, with tasks allocated to each where they are most effective.
