Five Minutes in Healthcare is where I discuss current events with some of the industry's most influential leaders, as well as innovative thinkers who are working to meet the challenges of the novel coronavirus.

In this installment, I check in with Dr. Joe Nicholson, chief medical officer for CareAllies, a Cigna company that brings value-based care solutions to physician organizations. We talk about the enormous impact of COVID-19 on primary care physicians and healthcare in general, from the positives like technological innovation to the negatives like a drop in cancer screenings. Dr. Joe says that, for better or worse, we will look back on 2020 as a turning point in the way we think about healthcare.

We hope you enjoy the conversation. Please tell us what you think, and let us know who you would like to see interviewed next:
