I'm Deepak.

36
00:01:30,590 --> 00:01:33,329

health at Providence.

Today, we are going to talk about the

39
00:01:36,670 --> 00:01:39,810
intersections between health equity and value based care.

40
00:01:39,950 --> 00:01:41,729

41
00:01:42,030 --> 00:01:42,530
specialist

42
00:01:42,989 --> 00:01:45,185
and an incredible thought leader for Providence.

43
00:01:45,564 --> 00:01:48,605
Tim Schell Tarvit leads health experience and equity

44
00:01:48,605 --> 00:01:50,224
within Providence Health Plan.

45
00:01:50,525 --> 00:01:51,584
Welcome, Tim Schell.

46
00:01:52,125 --> 00:01:53,905
Thanks. It's great to be here.

47
00:01:54,525 --> 00:01:56,939
So, Tim Schell, just to start this off,

48
00:01:57,420 --> 00:01:59,579
what does it mean to be the chief

49
00:01:59,579 --> 00:02:02,540
health care experience and equity officer at the

50
00:02:02,540 --> 00:02:05,100
Providence Health Plan? What do you spend most

51
00:02:05,100 --> 00:02:06,159
of your time doing?

52
00:02:07,740 --> 00:02:10,155
Well, most of my time is probably spent

53
00:02:10,155 --> 00:02:12,555
in meetings. I say that tongue in cheek,

54
00:02:12,555 --> 00:02:13,055
actually.

55
00:02:13,675 --> 00:02:14,175
Yeah.

56
00:02:14,555 --> 00:02:15,134
You know,

57
00:02:15,995 --> 00:02:17,134
as I think about

58
00:02:17,514 --> 00:02:19,675
my role, it's really trying to find ways

59
00:02:19,675 --> 00:02:21,215
to push innovative solutions,

60
00:02:21,754 --> 00:02:22,254
empowering,

61
00:02:23,610 --> 00:02:26,269
Providence Health Plan and the teams to improve

62
00:02:26,409 --> 00:02:28,830
both our health care experience for

63
00:02:29,370 --> 00:02:30,269
our our members,

64
00:02:31,289 --> 00:02:32,110
but addressing

65
00:02:32,569 --> 00:02:34,330
some of the equity challenges that we have

66
00:02:34,330 --> 00:02:34,830
also.

67
00:02:35,370 --> 00:02:37,370
We know in in health care, there there

68
00:02:37,370 --> 00:02:39,745
are many inequities. And so how can we

69
00:02:39,745 --> 00:02:40,405
find innovative

70
00:02:40,705 --> 00:02:42,485
solutions that will will address

71
00:02:42,784 --> 00:02:45,025
will address some of the the inequities that

72
00:02:45,025 --> 00:02:47,284
there are? And also, you know,

73
00:02:47,585 --> 00:02:49,604
working then with our internal caregivers,

74
00:02:49,985 --> 00:02:50,485
leading,

75
00:02:50,944 --> 00:02:53,039
some of these these innovative solutions

76
00:03:01,759 --> 00:03:03,840
empower and have a voice as we are

77
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:05,780
looking at what we might want to do.

78
00:03:06,775 --> 00:03:08,935
Oh, that's great. So you're looking at not

79
00:03:08,935 --> 00:03:12,454
only the member population, but also our employees,

80
00:03:12,454 --> 00:03:13,194
our caregivers,

81
00:03:14,055 --> 00:03:14,555
because

82
00:03:14,854 --> 00:03:17,094
equity is is across it's

83
00:03:17,414 --> 00:03:19,020
it flows into both sides

84
00:03:20,219 --> 00:03:22,540
there. That's great. As an executive that's focused

85
00:03:22,540 --> 00:03:25,419
on achieving health equity, how do you see

86
00:03:25,419 --> 00:03:27,840
value based care supporting that effort?

87
00:03:29,180 --> 00:03:31,280
You know, that it's such a great question.

88
00:03:31,980 --> 00:03:33,824
When when I think about, you know, the

89
00:03:33,824 --> 00:03:37,185
traditional system of, you know, getting people through

90
00:03:37,185 --> 00:03:38,405
as quick as possible,

91
00:03:38,865 --> 00:03:39,745
that's really,

92
00:03:40,064 --> 00:03:41,824
one of the things that just continues to

93
00:03:41,824 --> 00:03:43,284
perpetuate the inequities.

94
00:03:43,745 --> 00:03:45,599
So then when we start thinking about value

95
00:03:45,599 --> 00:03:46,340
based care,

96
00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:49,060
I really believe it's a step towards addressing

97
00:03:49,199 --> 00:03:50,479
some of the inequities that there are in

98
00:03:50,479 --> 00:03:52,159
the health care system. What we're really doing

99
00:03:52,159 --> 00:03:53,780
is we're focusing on the outcomes.

100
00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:56,719
And when you start focusing on outcomes, what

101
00:03:56,719 --> 00:03:57,939
you realize is

102
00:03:58,455 --> 00:03:58,955
individuals,

103
00:03:59,495 --> 00:04:01,414
each of us is an n of 1.

104
00:04:01,414 --> 00:04:03,974
And so our outcomes could be different based

105
00:04:03,974 --> 00:04:04,474
on

106
00:04:04,854 --> 00:04:07,495
other circumstances that we might have based on

107
00:04:07,495 --> 00:04:10,375
our race, our ethnicity, our age, our sexual

108
00:04:10,375 --> 00:04:13,169
orientation, gender identity, or our disability status.

109
00:04:13,969 --> 00:04:16,370
And so as we start to try and

110
00:04:16,370 --> 00:04:17,350
drive to

111
00:04:17,889 --> 00:04:20,230
outcomes that are more positive,

112
00:04:20,689 --> 00:04:23,329
not just an a giant number or getting

113
00:04:23,329 --> 00:04:24,149
people through,

114
00:04:24,529 --> 00:04:26,895
what I really think is that's where that

115
00:04:26,895 --> 00:04:29,935
intersection is. We start to see changes in

116
00:04:29,935 --> 00:04:31,074
how we are engaging

117
00:04:31,535 --> 00:04:33,774
with the patient or from a health plan

118
00:04:33,774 --> 00:04:35,395
standpoint, we call them the member.

119
00:04:35,855 --> 00:04:38,095
And and I think that this is we're

120
00:04:38,095 --> 00:04:39,930
at a pivotal point in trying to drive

121
00:04:39,930 --> 00:04:42,129
to that because it's really a different approach

122
00:04:42,129 --> 00:04:44,770
in health care, and and it's focused on

123
00:04:44,770 --> 00:04:46,949
meeting the change in in our world.

124
00:04:47,330 --> 00:04:49,089
And as I think about, you know, the

125
00:04:49,089 --> 00:04:51,649
the health plan that I'm blessed enough to

126
00:04:51,649 --> 00:04:53,894
be part of, Providence Health Plan. You know,

127
00:04:53,894 --> 00:04:57,415
we're definitely committed to being affordable and making

128
00:04:57,415 --> 00:04:58,154
sure that

129
00:04:58,535 --> 00:05:02,154
individuals can access high quality care that's equitable

130
00:05:02,294 --> 00:05:02,954
to them.

131
00:05:03,334 --> 00:05:04,935
And that can mean something different for who

132
00:05:04,935 --> 00:05:06,294
you are. And so we really wanna lead

133
00:05:06,294 --> 00:05:06,535
with equity,

134
00:05:07,430 --> 00:05:09,910
and lead with thinking about how we can

135
00:05:09,910 --> 00:05:12,730
make sure that our our patients and members

136
00:05:12,870 --> 00:05:13,850
get the outcomes

137
00:05:14,310 --> 00:05:16,410
to live their best and most healthy lives.

138
00:05:17,430 --> 00:05:19,529
It it's almost like so

139
00:05:19,855 --> 00:05:22,754
that incentive for better patient outcomes

140
00:05:23,134 --> 00:05:23,535
that,

141
00:05:24,014 --> 00:05:26,274
is part of these value based care contracts

142
00:05:27,214 --> 00:05:27,714
supports

143
00:05:28,335 --> 00:05:31,134
really getting to the root cause of why

144
00:05:31,134 --> 00:05:32,194
those outcomes

145
00:05:32,654 --> 00:05:35,475
are less than desirable in the first place.

146
00:05:36,649 --> 00:05:39,050
Absolutely. You have to take the time to

147
00:05:39,050 --> 00:05:40,589
understand because right now,

148
00:05:40,969 --> 00:05:43,050
if you're just fixing or putting a Band

149
00:05:43,050 --> 00:05:44,889
Aid on it, it's not gonna fit

150
00:05:45,370 --> 00:05:47,849
over time, what we've continued to see is

151
00:05:47,849 --> 00:05:49,469
it doesn't really fix the problem.

152
00:05:49,769 --> 00:05:51,604
And so if we want to figure out

153
00:05:51,604 --> 00:05:53,604
a way to fix the problem, we have

154
00:05:53,604 --> 00:05:55,845
to focus on what's the root cause driving

155
00:05:55,845 --> 00:05:57,604
this. And it could be very different root

156
00:05:57,604 --> 00:05:59,925
causes based on who you are, where you

157
00:05:59,925 --> 00:06:02,084
live, what access you have, even the healthy

158
00:06:02,084 --> 00:06:04,800
things like food. Right? And so if we're

159
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,759
putting in the value and based on the

160
00:06:07,759 --> 00:06:10,480
outcome and not how many individuals you can

161
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,020
get through or process,

162
00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,720
it it I think that's where the the

163
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:15,620
change happens.

164
00:06:16,985 --> 00:06:19,064
That's wonderful, Tim Shail. Thank you for sharing

165
00:06:19,064 --> 00:06:20,504
that. I think it's a it's such a

166
00:06:20,504 --> 00:06:22,045
refreshing approach to

167
00:06:22,425 --> 00:06:25,545
managing populations from a health plan perspective, which

168
00:06:25,545 --> 00:06:27,324
brings me to the next,

169
00:06:28,024 --> 00:06:30,264
question that occurs to me, which is, you

170
00:06:30,264 --> 00:06:32,379
know, in my role, I work on the

171
00:06:32,379 --> 00:06:34,960
health care delivery side, right, from a population

172
00:06:35,020 --> 00:06:35,759
health perspective,

173
00:06:36,220 --> 00:06:38,060
and you work on the health plan side

174
00:06:38,060 --> 00:06:38,720
of Providence.

175
00:06:39,899 --> 00:06:41,680
I'm wondering about your perspective

176
00:06:42,139 --> 00:06:43,279
on how organizations

177
00:06:43,899 --> 00:06:46,105
that are integrated like ours,

178
00:06:46,884 --> 00:06:48,725
can add more value to our community? I

179
00:06:48,725 --> 00:06:51,764
think it's, it probably leads from the from

180
00:06:51,764 --> 00:06:53,605
from the topic that you were just talking

181
00:06:53,605 --> 00:06:54,105
about.

182
00:06:55,444 --> 00:06:57,045
I I really think it does. One of

183
00:06:57,045 --> 00:06:58,740
the things that has been such a pleasant

184
00:06:58,740 --> 00:07:00,020
surprise to me this is the first time

185
00:07:00,020 --> 00:07:01,160
I've worked for an integrated,

186
00:07:01,939 --> 00:07:04,020
an integrated plan. And and one of the

187
00:07:04,020 --> 00:07:05,779
things that I have always thought and I

188
00:07:05,779 --> 00:07:08,420
have pushed is how can we find ways

189
00:07:08,420 --> 00:07:10,980
instead of working against each other to work

190
00:07:10,980 --> 00:07:11,415
together?

191
00:07:12,375 --> 00:07:15,175
And coming to Providence, I really see us

192
00:07:15,175 --> 00:07:17,095
as one providence. One of the things that

193
00:07:17,095 --> 00:07:18,855
I'm lucky enough to get to do is

194
00:07:18,855 --> 00:07:20,535
to do some outreach to some of our

195
00:07:20,535 --> 00:07:21,035
members.

196
00:07:21,574 --> 00:07:23,814
And when I do that outreach with the

197
00:07:23,814 --> 00:07:25,995
members and I'm I'm talking with them,

198
00:07:26,810 --> 00:07:28,170
there's a lot of times where, you know,

199
00:07:28,170 --> 00:07:29,610
I say, what are we doing well? And

200
00:07:29,610 --> 00:07:31,370
they talk to me about what the doctors

201
00:07:31,370 --> 00:07:33,610
and the nurses are doing, or they talk

202
00:07:33,610 --> 00:07:35,850
about what our customer service folks are doing.

203
00:07:35,850 --> 00:07:37,389
They don't see us as different.

204
00:07:38,009 --> 00:07:40,170
And I think that is key. Right? Instead

205
00:07:40,170 --> 00:07:42,615
of thinking of us as there's the insurer,

206
00:07:42,615 --> 00:07:44,935
there's the system side, and they're always going

207
00:07:44,935 --> 00:07:46,774
to be, you know, from a delivery side

208
00:07:46,774 --> 00:07:49,175
or an insurance side fighting against each other.

209
00:07:49,175 --> 00:07:51,435
Instead, we're partnering and

210
00:07:51,814 --> 00:07:55,194
walking together and, you know, presenting that unified

211
00:07:55,254 --> 00:07:55,740
presence

212
00:07:56,379 --> 00:07:58,139
and doing it in a way that the

213
00:07:58,139 --> 00:08:00,620
entire community sees us. And so it creates

214
00:08:00,620 --> 00:08:02,399
this level and this name

215
00:08:02,939 --> 00:08:05,419
of trust. They know who Providence is, and

216
00:08:05,419 --> 00:08:06,479
they trust us.

217
00:08:06,779 --> 00:08:08,954
In addition, there's such key things that

218
00:08:09,595 --> 00:08:11,214
I think we're able to do together,

219
00:08:11,754 --> 00:08:14,735
that are huge. So I'm sure everybody

220
00:08:15,754 --> 00:08:17,274
both of you are very much aware of,

221
00:08:17,274 --> 00:08:19,055
you know, the commitment, the Providence commitment,

222
00:08:19,754 --> 00:08:20,154
to,

223
00:08:20,634 --> 00:08:22,110
to put $50,000,000

224
00:08:22,889 --> 00:08:23,389
into,

225
00:08:24,169 --> 00:08:27,449
the community to address inequities. Well, we are

226
00:08:27,449 --> 00:08:27,949
actually

227
00:08:28,250 --> 00:08:29,310
one of the beneficiaries

228
00:08:29,769 --> 00:08:32,350
this year. We put in a a proposal

229
00:08:32,570 --> 00:08:33,629
to get some,

230
00:08:34,490 --> 00:08:37,225
in language care navigators that are gonna help

231
00:08:37,225 --> 00:08:39,884
navigate the the system, not just,

232
00:08:40,745 --> 00:08:43,945
a care delivery standpoint, but from a health

233
00:08:43,945 --> 00:08:44,925
plan standpoint.

234
00:08:45,384 --> 00:08:47,545
So now these care navigators are gonna have

235
00:08:47,545 --> 00:08:50,850
the opportunity to help individuals who English is

236
00:08:50,850 --> 00:08:52,070
not their first language,

237
00:08:53,570 --> 00:08:56,049
navigate it from dealing with the insurance side

238
00:08:56,049 --> 00:08:57,809
and the system side. So that I mean,

239
00:08:57,809 --> 00:08:59,250
that's just a way right there where we're

240
00:08:59,250 --> 00:09:02,644
trying to, you know, integrate but be innovative.

241
00:09:03,424 --> 00:09:05,345
And I I I wish that there were

242
00:09:05,345 --> 00:09:06,245
more opportunities

243
00:09:06,705 --> 00:09:09,125
for other organizations to do that also.

244
00:09:09,985 --> 00:09:12,644
Yeah. And, you know, the the care navigator

245
00:09:12,785 --> 00:09:15,105
initiative, I'm super excited about because one of

246
00:09:15,105 --> 00:09:17,830
the gaps we've already heard about in our

247
00:09:17,830 --> 00:09:20,250
communities is the challenges of,

248
00:09:21,029 --> 00:09:23,110
of people who are not native English speakers

249
00:09:23,110 --> 00:09:24,789
to actually get access to the type of

250
00:09:24,789 --> 00:09:26,730
care that they need and be able to

251
00:09:26,789 --> 00:09:28,250
access the health care system.

252
00:09:28,654 --> 00:09:30,654
And it's it's exciting that we're able to

253
00:09:30,654 --> 00:09:33,054
partner on this very important initiative for our

254
00:09:33,054 --> 00:09:33,554
communities.

255
00:09:34,894 --> 00:09:37,134
Just a great opportunity. And I think it's

256
00:09:37,134 --> 00:09:39,215
a first step. Right? I mean, there's so

257
00:09:39,215 --> 00:09:41,490
many other things that as I think about

258
00:09:41,710 --> 00:09:44,529
Providence overall that we we have the opportunity

259
00:09:44,830 --> 00:09:47,309
to just partner on, and I think this

260
00:09:47,309 --> 00:09:49,550
is gonna be one one proof point, but

261
00:09:49,550 --> 00:09:50,910
I am sure that as I think about

262
00:09:50,910 --> 00:09:52,750
One Providence, there's gonna be a lot more

263
00:09:52,750 --> 00:09:54,910
that we we can elaborate on in in

264
00:09:54,910 --> 00:09:55,970
that same vein.

265
00:09:57,245 --> 00:09:59,985
Yeah. You know, I health care is so

266
00:10:00,365 --> 00:10:00,865
difficult

267
00:10:01,644 --> 00:10:04,044
to navigate in general. And then to add,

268
00:10:04,365 --> 00:10:06,144
not being a native English speaker,

269
00:10:07,565 --> 00:10:08,065
it's,

270
00:10:08,919 --> 00:10:12,059
just so complex and what a great initiative.

271
00:10:12,279 --> 00:10:14,679
So, I mean, kudos to Providence Health Plan

272
00:10:14,679 --> 00:10:15,240
and to yourself for,

273
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,259
for putting this into place and implementing,

274
00:10:20,279 --> 00:10:21,419
just really exciting.

275
00:10:23,034 --> 00:10:24,495
And speaking of complexity,

276
00:10:25,274 --> 00:10:27,914
contract and payment models are complex even for

277
00:10:27,914 --> 00:10:30,955
those who live and breathe this work every

278
00:10:30,955 --> 00:10:31,455
day.

279
00:10:32,394 --> 00:10:35,115
We have an obligation to not transfer that

280
00:10:35,115 --> 00:10:35,549
complex

281
00:10:38,509 --> 00:10:39,309
communities. What do health systems need to prioritize

282
00:10:39,309 --> 00:10:40,480
to ensure we're easing the way for all?

283
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:42,750
Yeah. I mean, as I think about, the

284
00:10:42,750 --> 00:10:44,769
complexity, I even get confused sometimes.

285
00:10:45,470 --> 00:10:45,970
Right?

286
00:10:50,544 --> 00:10:52,945
Yeah. I think we need to we need

287
00:10:52,945 --> 00:10:54,945
to start with as as I think about

288
00:10:54,945 --> 00:10:57,024
it, you know, the contracting side on the

289
00:10:57,024 --> 00:10:59,264
back, one of the things that as I

290
00:10:59,264 --> 00:11:00,404
think about the evolution

291
00:11:00,865 --> 00:11:01,845
of I don't

292
00:11:02,304 --> 00:11:03,665
know how many of y'all have bought a

293
00:11:03,665 --> 00:11:05,779
house over the last, I don't know, 30

294
00:11:05,779 --> 00:11:08,259
years, but it has gotten a lot easier

295
00:11:08,259 --> 00:11:10,199
even though there's a lot to sign.

296
00:11:11,139 --> 00:11:13,539
It's gotten easier. Right? And so I think

297
00:11:13,539 --> 00:11:16,419
part of it is, you know, thinking about

298
00:11:16,419 --> 00:11:18,199
a way to, you know,

299
00:11:18,740 --> 00:11:19,959
break down the silos,

300
00:11:20,514 --> 00:11:23,315
between, you know, the the delivery system side

301
00:11:23,315 --> 00:11:25,634
and and the health insurer side, and then

302
00:11:25,634 --> 00:11:28,294
really finding a way to put the patient

303
00:11:28,754 --> 00:11:30,514
or the member at the center of it.

304
00:11:30,514 --> 00:11:32,214
Right? So when I think about the Providence

305
00:11:32,274 --> 00:11:34,195
promise of knowing, caring for, and ease in

306
00:11:34,195 --> 00:11:35,894
the way of our members and our patients,

307
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:37,840
I really think that that's the way that

308
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,840
we have to do it. So that's gonna

309
00:11:40,000 --> 00:11:42,080
that will help us to solve for the

310
00:11:42,080 --> 00:11:45,139
complexities and prioritize that patient experience.

311
00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:48,080
Yes. We're a business. Yes. We have to

312
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:49,759
make sure that we we take care of

313
00:11:49,759 --> 00:11:51,575
all of that. But if we are really

314
00:11:51,575 --> 00:11:53,975
centering it around the patient and what their

315
00:11:53,975 --> 00:11:55,355
experience is gonna be,

316
00:11:55,815 --> 00:11:57,334
also think that we need to find better

317
00:11:57,334 --> 00:11:58,875
ways to communicate and collaborate.

318
00:11:59,575 --> 00:12:01,575
I think that there's you know, as as

319
00:12:01,575 --> 00:12:03,735
we think about even just you know, we're

320
00:12:03,735 --> 00:12:04,475
very regulated,

321
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,240
and there's a lot of mandatory notices and

322
00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:10,240
things that we have to send out. But

323
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:10,740
when

324
00:12:11,199 --> 00:12:13,839
the the the delivery system has to send

325
00:12:13,839 --> 00:12:15,679
them out and the insurance system has to

326
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:17,379
send them out, how can we find ways

327
00:12:17,795 --> 00:12:19,575
to not have it be so siloed

328
00:12:20,035 --> 00:12:22,375
and to make it easier for the individual

329
00:12:22,514 --> 00:12:24,855
and the patient and the member to understand?

330
00:12:26,514 --> 00:12:29,315
Amen to that. Well, thank you so much,

331
00:12:29,315 --> 00:12:31,370
Tim Schall. I really appreciate your conversation.

332
00:12:32,389 --> 00:12:34,485
I'm really excited for this to launch and

333
00:12:34,485 --> 00:12:34,629
for others to hear, what you have to

334
00:12:34,629 --> 00:12:36,169
say and, have

335
00:12:36,620 --> 00:12:37,690
a wonderful day.

336
00:12:46,337 --> 00:12:48,037
Yeah. Thanks. It's been great.
