About this listen

On this episode, we welcome Dr. Gary Puckrein, President and CEO of the National Minority Quality Forum. Dr. Puckrein discusses “The Work at Hand" - the critical mission of reimagining our healthcare system for 2050 and beyond. He shares his perspective on leveraging medical advances to prevent diseases before they occur, from cardiovascular disease to cancer to rare diseases. Dr. Puckrein emphasizes that we have the capability to transform healthcare through collective effort and public will, highlighting the importance of aligning social determinants of health with individual biology to improve health outcomes in underserved communities. Recognizing National Minority Health Month, this conversation offers valuable guidance for employers on their role in supporting health equity and creating a more vibrant, inclusive healthcare system for all.
