Dave Chase: Our Guest on the Digital Health Maven Podcast – Early November 2016

Dave Chase is a digital health maven because of the courage he has displayed in fighting against daunting odds to radically transform the U.S. healthcare system from the inside out.

Chase’s primary digital health maven trait is practice bravery (click here to learn about the five traits of digital health mavens).

Chase wears many hats. He’s a respected, founder of Avado, which was purchased by WebMD, and a venture capitalist. While all of these accomplishments are noteworthy, perhaps his most high-impact role is that of a mindset shifter. Recently he has focused on breaking through healthcare’s status quo and warns that simply throwing tech on top of broken processes is a recipe for disaster.

You’ll hear Chase talk about The Big Heist, a new documentary he is executive producing that aims to shine a bright light on how the broken U.S. healthcare system is harming patients and providers — sometimes with fatal results.

The Digital Health Maven Podcast is focused on illustrating how digital health mavens are using their curiosity, thirst for insights, human-centered approach, flexibility and bravery to change health and medicine for the better. The podcast is also designed to uncover how each person’s experiences and perspectives contributes to his or her ability to practice digital health maven traits such as embracing flexibility and cultivating curiosity.

In this episode of the Digital Health Maven Podcast, we focus on the digital health maven trait practice bravery and how this habit can help us achieve amazing things — even against significant and seemingly insurmountable odds.
