He received his MD from Georgetown University School of Medicine, completed his residency in general surgery at Thomas Jefferson University, and his residency in emergency medicine from Boston’s Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, a teaching hospital of Harvard Medical School.

In this episode, Akshay Birla and Dr. Ban explore what we can learn about population health in the U.S. from global differences in healthcare systems. They dig into varying organizational ideologies toward the value based care model in the U.S., the true impact of technology in healthcare, and how hospitals and systems must embrace the mandate of access, consumerism, and transparency to succeed.
