info_outlineErika Pabo, MD MBA is a physician, executive leader, and entrepreneur with deep experience building, operating, and transforming businesses across the value-based healthcare ecosystem. She currently serves as Chief Transformation Officer & Operations Leader for Humana’s Primary Care Organization, the largest senior focused primary care business in the country that operates in market as Centerwell, Conviva and Elite. Erika previously served Co-President at Author, a company she helped incubate and operate as a business segment within Humana and where she still sits on the board. Prior to that, she served as Medical Director for Population Health and Associate Director for Primary Care at Brigham and Women’s Hospital System where she still sees patients today. She received her MD and MBA from Harvard and her bachelors degree from Yale.
In this episode, Erika and I have a fun conversation discussing:
- How she learned how to understand her value, show her value, and bring all of herself to her role as a clinician and an operator
- Her inspiration to pursue an joint MD/MBA degree and other approaches to acquiring the skills needed to be successful
- What she sees as the special strengths that clinicians bring to the business world and why she thinks some of the most transformative leaders are indeed clinicians
- How success arises from having curiosity and mutual respect, developing a shared language, having a growth mindset, and from clear articulation of roles and responsibilities
- On the heterogeneity and the historically limited view of the role of the "clinical leader" and why she has sometimes had to “over-index” on being an operator as a result
- On navigating life and work and being present through it all
- A special note of appreciation for the innumerable clinicians on the ground doing the hard work of caring for patients without whom the system would not function
- And much more!
