It’s About Impact: A Conversation Around Delivering At-Home Care

 

In a system where cancer care delivery is broken and needs a cure, Dr. Aaron Gerber and his team at Reimagine Care are working tirelessly to make Oncology Care more affordable, accessible, and home-centered.

 

In this episode of Memora Health Care Delivery, Aaron walks us through how he decided to move into the business side of healthcare, all boiling down to impact and the number of patients his work can reach. Aaron shares some statistics, challenges, and facts about cancer patients while receiving treatment. At-home care delivery is an area that has improved through the years, especially for cancer diseases, through the implementation of technology, enabling two-way texts or video calls between patients and providers. He also explains how Reimagine Care is partnering with several other institutions and organizations not only to deliver better care but to study how they can be better. 

 

The endeavor for better care delivery is daunting, challenging, and not as nice as it seems on the outside, but Aaron is hopeful about his mission he cannot wait to keep pushing boundaries. Tune in to this episode!
