About the program
We have all seen rapid changes in health care over the past few years, much of this in reaction to the demands that the global pandemic placed on health systems. In the absence of a crisis, how does a health care organization structure itself and align its efforts to facilitate accelerated change to support its strategy? Kaiser Permanente has launched acceleration and transformation offices in our markets, designed to strategically approach initiatives to create high-value outcomes. This two-part series features change and transformation in two of our markets.
In Session 1, Kelly Stanford, Vice President, Ambulatory Operations in Kaiser Permanente Washington will share her efforts leading work through an Acceleration Office to drive meaningful changes in her market. Hear how this work was designed, governed and implemented and how her team is approaching the next phases of change.
In Session 2, Anjum Khan, PT, DPT, Vice President of Ambulatory Care, Kaiser Permanente Georgia, will share how Georgia has prioritized change to optimize every day processes that lead to greater value creation for its members and community.
