Real Health Care Happens Between Doctor Visits w/ Wei-Li Shao, President, Omada Health
Between 80% and 90% of health outcomes are shaped by what happens between doctor visits. Yet the entire U.S. health care system, from payment models to primary care, is built around the visit itself.
Wei-Li Shao, President of Omada Health, joins host John Marchica to break down why persistent, in-between-visit care is the missing layer in chronic disease management, and how pairing GLP-1 therapy with the right behavioral support program could be one of the most powerful levers the health care system has yet to fully pull.
