Like the energy sector, healthcare is at a cross-roads. Both systems are ‘stuck’. And, both are facing significant change and disruption in the years ahead.
At St Vincent’s Health Australia, a new roadmap for healthcare is being written, designed to drive health equity outcomes, support marginalised members of our community and embrace new technologies, new methods of delivery and new ways of working.
You don’t want to miss this lively debate with Chris Blake, Group CEO of St Vincent’s Health Australia and renowned medical investigative journalist and broadcaster, Dr Norman Swan, as they unpack the challenges and reveal Chris’s vision to super-charge the future of healthcare.
