Ep 16: What Separates Durable Change from Innovation Theater? A Conversation with Maulik S. Joshi

Healthcare leaders are often told to move faster, innovate more, and stay ahead of change. But how do you know when you're creating meaningful transformation versus simply participating in innovation theater? In this episode of Viral Healthcare, Bruce Spurlock sits down with healthcare executive and public health leader Maulik S. Joshi, Dr.P.H., President and CEO of Meritus Health.
