Research shows that more than 9 million seniors may experience food insecurity by 2050, and seniors experiencing food insecurity are 65% more likely to be diabetic and suffer from conditions such as congestive heart failure and high blood pressure. SCAN and Instacart have partnered to help alleviate food costs and ensure immediate access to nutritious food options that help older adults manage their chronic conditions. "Health equity has just been in the DNA of SCAN for some time... So we're continuously looking to innovate, tailor products and benefits wherever we can to help make that goal a reality." said SCAN Health Plan's President of Medicare Karen Schulte.

For years, I’ve been a fervent advocate for moving more care to the home. In a previous role leading CareMore Health, I presided over what was then one of the largest hospital-at-home programs in the country and launched home-based primary care in several markets. At SCAN, I’ve led the creation of home-based primary care and chronic disease companies. And yet, the experience of seeing my father age with multiple chronic illnesses gave me new insight into how home-based care programs often play out in reality and has caused me to reflect on my advocacy for them. As my family learned, in-home care programs often place unrealistic burdens on patients' families, requiring them to perform tasks for which they have no training, and do little to reduce costs. It’s time for the healthcare industry to balance the march toward widespread implementation of these programs with strong regulatory, performance and selection standards that ensure the patients who access care in this manner receive treatment on a level equal to or greater than what they would get in a clinical setting.

How can ethics help health care organizational leaders navigate emerging challenges in the practice and business of medicine? I am participating in a discusssion with the Harvard Medical School Center for Bioethics this Friday, September 27–and encourage you to join. During this fireside chat with Lauren A Taylor and Kelsey Berry, PhD, I will explore the trends and challenges facing healthcare organizations today and the role that ethics play in charting a course forward. We will explore what it means (and takes) for organizational leaders to adopt an ethics lens in their decision making, critically reexamine dominant frameworks for setting organizational strategy such as 'no margin, no mission', and interrogate the moral leadership crisis and possible solutions in health care. I’ll look forward to sharing perspectives developed during my time in government, at Merck, at CareMore Health, and, most recently, at SCAN. I hope to see many of you there!

Register here: https://lnkd.in/diPm9R9a During this fireside chat with Dr. Sachin Jain, President and CEO of SCAN Group and Health Plan, we will explore the trends and challenges that face #healthcare organizations today and the role that #ethics and ethics leaders can play in charting a course forward. We will explore what it means (and takes) for organizational leaders to adopt an ethics lens in their decision making, critically reexamine dominant frameworks for setting organizational strategy such as 'no margin, no mission', and interrogate the moral leadership crisis and possible solutions in health care.

Dr. Jain teaches and frequently writes and speaks on transformation and innovation across the health care sector, with special attention to the values-based tensions that arise for health organizations and their leaders in an evolving, and often faltering, health care industry. He is regularly recognized as a "Top 50 Most Influential Clinical Leader" and "100 Most Influential People in US Healthcare" by Modern Healthcare, and has led SCAN Group to recent recognition as one of Modern Healthcare's 2024 Diversity Leader Organizations.
