Changing the System: Leadership and Healthcare Reform with David Silverstein

Host Michele Kawamoto Perry interviews David Silverstein, founder and CEO of Amaze Health, former nuclear submarine officer, strategist, entrepreneur, and healthcare reform advocate, about his 25+ year journey leading organizations, challenging broken systems, and driving meaningful change in healthcare. From military discipline to helping advance federal healthcare price transparency rules, David shares what it takes to influence large systems and build mission-driven companies grounded in clear values. The conversation explores intellectual curiosity, patient-first leadership, accountability, and what it means to "do the right thing" when faced with tough choices. Together, they examine how private-sector innovation and disciplined thinking can reshape the future of patient-centered care, and what legacy looks like for leaders working to create lasting change.
