Healthcare innovation and the industry’s transformation — which MedCity News has historically covered — is ultimately about the people involved. With that aim in mind, MedCity News is launching a new podcast that will report on healthcare’s corporate ladder and include a spotlight on one of the individuals making the news.
Episodes will publish monthly and will provide a roundup of executive appointments and layoff news. If you were recently laid off from a healthcare position and want to speak on the record, we would love to hear from you as well. Send all news to moves@medcitynews.com.
