Spotlight Episode: Oncology Side Effect Management in the Real World, With Dan Nardi From Reimagine Care

In this Spotlight Episode host Stacey Richter discusses the management of oncology side effects with Dan Nardi, CEO of Reimagine Care. Highlighting the challenges cancer patients face, especially following chemotherapy which often leads to nausea and readmissions, the conversation delves into how Reimagine Care facilitates at-home integrative cancer care.   Their services focus on proactive and reactive support via AI-driven tools like 'Remy' to assist patients outside of clinical environments. This approach aims to reduce emergency visits and improve patient outcomes while easing the workload on healthcare providers. The discussion underscores the role of patient reported outcomes and the integration of technology with human care to improve the quality of oncology treatment pathways. Note from Stacey Richter: Pulling off a show like this one is not cheap, and my Aventria business partner Dave Dierk and I are happy to fund the vast majority of it. But yeah, breath of fresh air, and thanks much to the team over at Reimagine Care for their sponsorship. My one disclaimer is that I have not personally vetted the solution, but there is a white paper (link in show notes) available where you will also find some insights from Reimagine Care's work with Memorial Hermann Health System. === LINKS === 🔗  Show Notes with all mentioned links:   https://cc-lnk.com/Spotlight1 🔗  Healthcare Industry Acronyms and Terms https://relentlesshealthvalue.com/healthcare-acronymns ✉️  Enjoy this podcast?
