Post-Acute Care: The Next Frontier

A foreword from Bruce Greenstein, EVP and Chief Strategy and Innovation Officer at LHC Group,

and moderator of the Post-Acute Care: The Next Frontier focus group at Modern Healthcare's 2018

Leadership Symposium on October 11, 2018:

My goal at LHC Group, having started recently, is to accelerate the shift in the way that we do business from fee-forservice

to value-based mechanisms, offering new products and services that we haven't envisioned before. When

you're in a business like healthcare, which is low-margin and often less nimble, doing something even a little bit

different can be disruptive, but it can also be innovative.

Before joining LHC, I was Chief Technology Officer for the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. While

there, we created the Kidney Innovation Accelerator — called KidneyX, opened up thousands of data sets for

entrepreneurs, researchers and innovators, and worked on efforts to create a less burdensome environment for

providers and give patients more access to information so that they can become consumers, not just patients. That

work continues at LHC. I hope you enjoy the following conversation between esteemed leaders who are shaping the

future of our industry.
