THCB Gang Special! Women Healthcare Leaders for Progress talk about health care & the election – The Health Care Blog

THCB Gang is back! (I know you’ve all missed it) and we started with a bang. I met with five powerhouse women leaders in health care who’ve just issued a public statement signed by another 500+ women leaders in support of the Harris/Walz campaign.

On the Gang are Missy Krasner, digital health veteran most recently at Amazon and Redesign Health but wayback on the founder team at ONC; Molly Coye, who ran Medicaid in NJ and CA and has had every role in health innovation know to womankind; Miriam Paramore, investor board member and operator at many, many health tech companies; (Lori Evans Bernstein, founder of Caraway, Health Reveal & many more but also at ONC back in the day, who actually couldn’t make the call); Laurie McGraw, EVP at Transcarent, formerly at AMA, Allscripts, etc; and Audrey Mann Cronin, communication advisor to CEOs and Founder, Say it Media.

Despite my obvious political leanings, this wasn’t be a push over. Do we need this group? What does Harris want to do about health care? What can she do? I am on record as saying “not much”. This was great discussion, and I was (virtually) ducking alot! — Matthew Holt
