In this podcast, Chris interviews Peter Benjamin, Partner with The Huntington Consulting Group. The themes from this podcast are Movement, Market, and Metamorphosis.
Peter has a rich history in hospice having worked for the first for-profit hospice in the US and has been consulting in the hospice segment since 1996. Chris asks Peter to reflect back and name two or three things that have gotten us to where we are today for the hospice segment. Then they shift the discussion to where things are going as Peter is requested to speak to many boards in the nonprofit segment about what hospices are facing going forward. Peter cites the S-curve theory as a way for hospice leaders and Boards to grasp the challenge that is before us and where we are in our life cycle.
Peter recently wrote a white paper he was inspired to craft after these multiple presentations to Boards he speaks to, and he shares some of what is in that white paper along with his prognostication of where he sees things going for our hospice segment. Peter and Chris finish the podcast by talking about innovation and how iterative vs completely new innovations are going to be called for in order to navigate the challenges and changes that are imminent for the hospice segment.
A great quote from the podcast from Peter, “I hope that as we experience the metamorphosis that is here, we can continue to remember as much as possible about what underlay the hospice movement; a profound wish translated into action that communities could experience end of life care in a better way. While all hospice providers may not (probably won’t) survive the metamorphosis it will be ‘OK’ if the end result is continued to improve [RL1] [CC2] in the movement founders’ wish. After all, the hospice movement wasn’t an incremental change…”
This is a great listen for staff, leaders, and Boards of hospice and palliative care organizations. Join us, this is timely and relevant.
