About this listen
In the latest episode of Getting Health Care Right, a podcast brought to you by TriHealth and the Cincinnati Business Courier, Jill Miller, president and CEO of bi3, is joined by Dr. Meredith Smith, executive director of Cradle Cincinnati.
The two recently co-wrote a book called “Infant Mortality and Other Wicked Problems,” which details how Cincinnati organizations joined forces to tackle the city’s high infant mortality rate.
“I don't think everybody knows that a community's infant mortality rate is the key indicator of the overall health of the community, and that is something that corporations and businesses should consider as they try to attract and build a workforce and attract new people to come here,” Miller said.
