Spann, MD, MBA, founding dean of the College of Medicine and vice-president for Medical Affairs at the University of Houston; and Yolangel (Yogi) Hernandez Suarez, MD, Associate Dean for Clinical and Community Affairs and Associate Professor, Florida International University, Herbert Wertheim College of Medicine.
Description: “Health care needs a 21st century workforce that enables primary care physicians and clinicians to become population health managers, leveraging artificial intelligence, data analytics and other technologies to address behavioral and physical health. Yet workforce development for an industry that has been reluctant to change is a major barrier. What types of educational and policy changes will need to take place to build a true 21st century health care workforce? How can we address the impact of racial inequities in education? The panel also will explore how technology is helping reinforce positive health behaviors and how data is shaping evidence-based policy.
