On this episode, Krista Drobac joins hosts Dr. Jessica Shepherd, Dr. Gautam Gulati and Dr. Jordan Schlain to explore the innovations in hospital-at-home and SNF-at-home we achieved during the pandemic. Krista discusses who benefits most from home-based care (and who might want to opt out) and describes how providers can identify environmental risks when they’re in a patient’s home. Listen in to understand why Krista advocates for value-based reimbursement models and learn what you can do to help persuade legislators to embrace home-based care.
When Krista Drobac first started thinking about home-based health care, she assumed that the biggest barriers to adoption would be cultural. But she quickly learned that policy was the problem.
And then came COVID-19. Regulations were loosened, and we were allowed to experiment with caring for patients at home.
So, how do we convince policymakers to preserve the advances in home-based care made during the pandemic and change the rules for good?
Krista serves as Partner at Sirona Strategies, Executive Director of the Alliance for Connected Care and Founder of Moving Health Home, a coalition working to change policy to enable the home to be a clinical site of care.
Krista has 25 years of experience in federal and state government policy and public affairs, and she consults on Medicare, Medicaid, digital health, social determinants of health and new care models.
