Live at ViVE: Revolutionizing Healthcare at Home with Daniel Graf

Episode Summary

How can healthcare providers change the way people think about and use emergency services like the ER? What is home health, and how can it improve patient outcomes, and what are some benefits of delivering healthcare services to the home? As DispatchHealth’s Chief Product Officer, Daniel Graf leads all technology functions, including engineering, data, product, IT, and InfoSec. With Daniel at the helm, the technology team is focused on enhancing the company's clinical and operational foundation to enable better care. Before joining Dispatch Health, Daniel worked as the Vice President of Product at Uber and was responsible for the consumer side of Google Maps. On this episode of The Beat, recorded at ViVE 2023, healthcare expert Daniel joins hosts Dr. Jessica Shepherd and Dr. Gautam Gulati to discuss the future of home-based care healthcare, the benefits, and how it can help reduce the burden on emergency rooms and provide a better option for patients recovering from surgery. As someone with a non-healthcare background, Daniel brings a fresh perspective to the conversation, highlighting how technology and innovation are driving positive change in the industry. He walks us through his experiences of working with patients in their own homes and how that has provided him with unique insights into their social determinants of health. Listen in as Daniel provides insight into the four ways people can engage with the healthcare system, from digital-only to in-person interactions, and how technology is helping to remove friction and improve access.
