In this episode of Relentless Health Value, host Stacey Richter speaks with Rik Renard from Awell about the significance of standardized care flows in digital health. The discussion covers the impact these care processes have on patient outcomes, clinician efficiency, and the healthcare system's overall performance. Highlights include an overview of a survey conducted with Health Tech Nerds, revealing that while 84% of digital health vendors use care flows, only 16% are based on evidence. The episode emphasizes the need for real-time data integration, continuous improvement, and addressing clinician autonomy to ensure the effective and scalable implementation of care flows. Renard shares insights from experts like Dr. Ali Khan of Oak Street Health and the importance of transitioning from basic documentation to advanced, integrated systems. === LINKS === 🔗  Show Notes with all mentioned links:   https://cc-lnk.com/EP427 ✉️  Enjoy this podcast?
