Chief Executive Officer, and Professor and Kenneth L. Davis, MD, Distinguished Chair, Mount Sinai Health System

It's remarkable to see how the pandemic has reshaped our understanding of the intersection between public health and #healthcare. We delved into the critical importance of seamless collaboration between these sectors.   Our conversation highlighted how, in an ideal world, the public might not distinguish between public health efforts and health care services. For instance, in managing infectious diseases like measles and syphilis, health care providers diagnose individual cases, while public health teams conduct contact tracing and community education. This dynamic interplay ensures comprehensive disease management and community protection. #AspenIdeasHealth #AspenIdeas #WeFindAWay

Please tell me Dr. Carr how to Bridge the Gap. Post people don’t know how to navigate portals (especially seniors) and does anyone know when they are in fear of dying or have dementia? What about Parkinson’s. There is still, as there has always been, No progress between MD’s unfortunately and unrealistic time constraints and the seemingly War between Administrators. Try being a post acute Health Navigator, 90% of the time they don’t comprehend or understand their POC. What you suggest; I’m trying. I could literally die trying.
