The Impact of Healthcare on the Workforce and the Solution Healthcare Technology Has to Solve Them

 

Given the current and unprecedented disruptions, one element looms large and significantly influences all sectors of our economy: healthcare. Accounting for an astounding 18.3 percent of the U.S. GDP, the healthcare system’s vastness and complexity echo through the workforce, from healthcare professionals to workers insured by employer-sponsored programs. But how, precisely, is the impact of healthcare shaping the modern workforce? And what does this mean for the individual employee?

In a new episode of “DisruptEd,” host Ron Stefanski and co-host Larry Yuhasz, tackle these pressing questions with Craig Froude, the CEO and founder of MedZero, for the show’s healthcare edition. With a focus on the intersection of workforce, technology, and healthcare, this episode sheds light on the often-overlooked impact of healthcare on the workforce landscape.
