Coverage pathways for psychedelic therapies

Twenty years ago, the healthcare industry was still largely paper-based. The Office of the National Coordinator for Health IT was created back in April 2004 through an executive order from President George W. Bush. In the past two decades, major health IT policies pushed through by ONC and HHS have helped to move providers to a digital healthcare system that enables more effective data-sharing.    

Micky Tripathi, Ph.D., has spent most of his career in the health IT world and took the helm at ONC in January 2021. In this week’s episode of “Podnosis,” he chats with Executive Editor Heather Landi about ONC’s achievements over the past 20 years, the agency’s current top priorities, the rapid adoption of AI in healthcare and more.

In this week’s episode of “Podnosis,” Fierce Healthcare’s Anastassia Gliadkovskaya explores the topic of inequities in maternal and infant health and what one nonprofit is doing to increase transparency and accountability.
