Check out the trailer for Season 4 of There’s a Better Way.

Host Melanie Marcus, Chief Marketing and Customer Experience Officer for Surescripts, is back this season to ask healthcare technology changemakers from across the nation one fundamental question: How can healthcare use systemic innovation to heal itself and change the way patients heal?

“The American healthcare system faces serious challenges, despite being one of the most innovative in the world. Care providers continue to face burnout from paperwork and administrative tasks and as a result, they are leaving practice. At the same time, patients are struggling more than ever before to find accessible and affordable care, forcing them to take drastic measures like cutting pills in half to make them last,” said Marcus.

“We know there truly is a better way. I’m thrilled to welcome this season’s impressive leaders from across healthcare who will share their vision for solving these challenges and the inspiring stories and innovative ideas driving their work to meaningfully improve the American healthcare system.”

Tune in to any major podcast app starting in May to hear from the latest line-up of guests including Jen McGonigle, Vice President of Optum Rx Enterprise Capabilities, John Schilling, Co-Managing Partner for TPG Capital, and Dr. Eric Boose, Associate Chief Medical Information Officer at Cleveland Clinic.

And catch up on past episodes now featuring inspiring, driven healthcare leaders like Troy Tazbaz, Director of Digital Health Center of Excellence at the Food and Drug Administration, Alexandra Drane, Chief Executive Officer & Co-Founder of Archangels, Eric Weidmann, M.D., Former Chief Medical Officer for CompuGroup Medical, and Tricia Lee Rolle, Pharm.D., MS, PhD, Senior Advisor, Office of the National Coordinator for Health Information Technology, plus many more!
