At the annual gathering of dynamic perspectives at the HLTH convention in Vegas, this year there was a poignant narrative that flowed — the imperative of holistic community involvement in healthcare evolution.

Roche of Siemens Healthineers and host of Holistic Leadership, explored the complexities of value-based care, workforce attrition, and the daunting stories of provider burnout. 

For an episode of “Highway to Health” with David Kemp, Roche and Kemp’s discussion spotlighted an urgency to innovate and embrace holistic solutions, new technologies, augmented reality (AR) and mental health advancements. He added that strategies for healthcare are still brimming with promise and resilience despite some difficulties. Listen to Roche discuss HLTH, the pathways to invigorate a sector that is facing recurring challenges, and navigating the future of healthcare.
