DHI Favorite: Exploring the Rise in Home-Based Care with Sprinter Health VP Seema Otoya

Decoding Healthcare Innovation

In this episode discover:

• How to apply experiences from other industries to healthcare
• Why you need to focus on customer experience in healthcare
• How to navigate the challenges of working in the home health space
• What the advantages are of being missions oriented

Key Takeaways:

• Being in varied and different roles or industries gives you the unique opportunity to provide your learnings from those roles and apply them to your current ones. Learn the industry as fast and as deeply as you can and inject your experiences.
• Other companies treat their customers as guests, but it’s different in healthcare. It’s time for companies to step up and make healthcare a more personalized, pleasant, and convenient experience.
• There are certain challenges that come with a home-based healthcare service like Sprinter Health. Some of them are hiring qualified people, managing their time, and dealing with the challenges each city presents.
• Being mission-oriented will help the company navigate through rapidly changing times and prevent people from being distracted by “shiny objects” that appear along the way.

“Being mission-oriented, and always keeping your eye on what you're trying to achieve is super important. In this market where things are changing and innovation is happening, if you have that kind of North Star guiding your decisions, it is incredibly helpful to navigate…”- Seema Otoya
