This week, CARE CEO, David Burford, joins Griffin to discuss what goes into the operational and financial decision-making process behind CARE Fertility’s business model.

Listen to hear:

Examples that look good (or bad) in a financial model, but then have good (or bad) consequences in operations.

Certain elements of operations that served the clinic, but not the patient.

When staff needs are at odds with patient needs, and the trade-offs that need to be solved for.

CARE’s HR machine and the concept of necessary, if not immediately efficient, redundancy.

The mass retirement of physician CEOs, and what that means for the fertility field as they are replaced by business people without medical degrees
