Jarrett Heard, M.D., MBA : The Blind Side: The Obstacle is the Way
Show: Fresh Flow Podcast
In this conversation Jarrett Heard, M.D., MBA shares how a scoring algorithm combining patient comorbidities and surgical risk can direct the right patients to the right preop pathway — reducing redundancy, unnecessary travel, and last‑minute cancellations.
He walks through the development and deployment of an Epic‑embedded predictive tool that triages surgical patients to virtual screening versus in‑person preop clinics — and why that matters for safety, access, and cost.
