Healthcare at Its Best: MRI on Tuesday, Surgery on Thursday, Home on Friday

Lee Aase is a digital healthcare pioneer and a social media expert. Now, he's a healthcare entrepreneur as co-founder of HELPCare Clinic, a membership-based direct primary care clinic. His current work is particularly relevant for this conversation because we talk about why there hasn't been an episode of DigitaLee recently: Lee's recent back surgery. We discuss how the referral process went, the seamless handoff from his primary care physician to the surgery team at Mayo Clinic. Plus, thoughts on where digital comes into play with a good streamlined care continuum.

These days it's a cryptocurrency scam on LinkedIn that's costing people tens of thousands of dollars.

How is Lee's work today informed by his two-plus decades in healthcare working on connecting the digital and physical elements of the industry to deliver better care? That's today's conversation. We look at the new venture, called HELPCare Clinic [https://helpcare.health], and talk about the why and how of this membership model of primary care. https://helpcare.health

This week, former head of social and digital at Mayo Clinic Lee Aase and Jarrard's David Shifrin talk about recent mass shootings, including those in medical facilities in Dayton and at St. Francis in Tulsa.
