About Designing Healthcare that Cares Podcast

Clinician turnover costs health systems $500,000 to $1 million per departure. Most organizations are managing the symptoms. This show diagnoses the structural conditions behind them. Designing Healthcare That Cares is hosted by Dr. Laura Suttin, a board-certified family physician, former healthcare executive, and organizational consultant who works with health system leaders to fix the structural conditions driving clinician attrition. Each episode gives healthcare executives a clearer view of the organizational design problems that produce turnover, and what it actually takes to correct them. Guests are clinician leaders, health system executives, and organizational experts whose experience translates directly to the boardroom. If you lead a health system, a medical group, or a clinical division, and you are tired of watching good clinicians leave, this show is for you.
