Views from the Crow’s Nest

Views from the Crow's Nest returns with a special double interview with Neet Shah and Dr. Elena Koshkina, two tenured professionals in healthcare analytics and data science. In our conversation we delve into some interesting developments at the intersection of data science advancements and the field of population health management. Some of the topics we covered include:

• What population health management is (and why it's important)
• How the differing structures of US/UK healthcare systems impact population health initiatives 
• Key leaders in population health management and which innovations are driving better outcomes
• Technology's impact on the wellness space
• HIPAA concerns around patient data collection
• How to drive patient engagement in a world where everyone can look up their symptoms online

We had the chance to spend time with Elena Koshkina and Neet Shah for a deep diving conversation on data science in population health management. This short five-minute sample will give you a preview of the full discussion episode, coming out later in November 2020!

By now the world is well familiar with the adverse effects of the pandemic for a number of industries and how COVID has impacted the U.S. GDP. Some have also heard about the Fed and various states' intervention programs to mitigate some of those effects, as referenced in our previous episode of VFTCN. At the center of the current maelstrom of the Fed regulations, pandemic effects, increased demand, loans and defaults, investors and depositors, are the banks. In this episode, we get to talk with Shreya Jain, a senior analyst at FischerJordan, and take a look at the bank's side of this story, where unfortunately the "grass isn't always greener." 

The economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been much-discussed and debated, especially regarding its impact on small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs). For some small business owners making steady payments on small business loans before the pandemic, the grim prospect of defaulting may now feel dangerously imminent. This fragile backdrop is now the proving ground for new ways to think about the relationship between borrower and lender. 

In our first full-length episode of Views from the Crow's Nest, we sit down with Boaz Salik, PhD, founder and CEO of FischerJordan, to examine the second order economic effects of the COVID pandemic for lenders in the next six months to a year or more.
