The Workforce Crisis Healthcare Leaders Can’t Afford to Ignore | Part One

Saison 8 · Épisode 3

mercredi 14 octobre 2026 • Durée 31:17

The healthcare workforce crisis is bigger than unfilled jobs. What happens when demand for care keeps growing while the pool of available workers shrinks?

In “The Workforce Crisis Healthcare Leaders Can’t Afford to Ignore | Part One,” Chris Comeaux welcomes Ron Hetrick, principal economist at Lightcast, to TCNtalks / Anatomy of Leadership for a candid conversation about healthcare staffing shortages, demographic change, and the future of work.

Hetrick explains how baby boomer retirement, smaller younger generations, and an aging population are reshaping the labor supply—and why he expects the pressure to intensify between 2030 and 2035. Together, Chris and Ron explore what these shifts could mean for hospice, palliative care, home health, and the essential workers who keep organizations running.

This conversation also examines the interaction of demographics, artificial intelligence, and geopolitical uncertainty, along with Hetrick’s case for treating immigration as a strategic workforce resource.

Whether you lead a healthcare organization, nonprofit, hospice team, or business, this episode offers a starting point for examining the assumptions behind your workforce planning.

IN THIS EPISODE

• Why healthcare staffing challenges extend beyond COVID-19
• How an aging population changes the demand for care
• Why retirements and smaller graduating classes matter
• How education choices affect essential workforce availability
• The role of immigration in addressing labor shortages

Featured Guest: Ron Hetrick, Principal Economist with Lightcast

Host: Chris Comeaux, President / CEO of TELEIOS and author of The Anatomy of Leadership

Hospice’s future is being shaped by the headlines leaders cannot afford to overlook.

In Hospice at a Crossroads: The Top News Stories Leaders Can’t Ignore | Part Two, Chris Comeaux and Cordt Kassner examine the hospice news and healthcare leadership questions that deserve your attention—from fraud and public trust to caregiver support, workforce sustainability, and AI in healthcare.

Drawing on articles featured in Hospice and Palliative Care Today, they explore what these developments could mean for hospice and palliative care organizations, nonprofit executives, and the leaders supporting frontline teams.

In this episode:

• How hospice fraud threatens public confidence and patient access
• Why caregiver support and workforce sustainability demand attention
• How AI, interoperability, and predictive tools are entering leadership conversations
• What Netflix, software implementation, and branding can teach hospice leaders
• Why policy headlines need careful interpretation

Hospice at a Crossroads: The Top News Stories Leaders Can’t Ignore | Part One

Saison 8 · Épisode 1

mercredi 7 octobre 2026 • Durée 32:15

Hospice leaders face a defining question: How do we protect trust and deliver exceptional care as the field changes around us?

In Hospice at a Crossroads: The Top News Stories Leaders Can’t Ignore | Part One, Chris Comeaux and Cordt Kassner unpack hospice and palliative care news from July–September 2026. Using Dr. Ira Byock’s framework and readership insights from Hospice and Palliative Care Today, they connect the quarter’s headlines to the decisions facing healthcare leaders, nonprofit executives, and hospice professionals.

The conversation explores CMS hospice updates and the Service and Spending Variation Index (SSVI), including why the speakers caution against treating it as a standalone quality grade. They also discuss pediatric hospice and concurrent care, the overlooked role of friend caregivers, and the evolving research on private equity ownership in hospice.

As families turn to Google and AI tools for answers, how can hospice organizations communicate their quality clearly? And what can community care, pet programs, and support for people without stable housing teach us about hospice’s authentic purpose?

The episode closes with an ethical discussion about organ donation and medical aid in dying.

The Future of Palliative Care: Who Will Lead, Who Will Pay, and What Comes Next? | Part Two

Saison 7 · Épisode 34

vendredi 2 octobre 2026 • Durée 37:40

Who will lead community-based palliative care—and how will they pay for care that meets patients’ needs?

In Part Two of The Future of Palliative Care: Who Will Lead, Who Will Pay, and What Comes Next?, Chris Comeaux joins CAPC CEO Brynn Bowman to explore palliative care reimbursement, hospice leadership, and the choices shaping serious illness care.

Bowman makes a clear distinction: many organizations can deliver palliative care, but the field must lead on quality. New payment opportunities offer reasons for optimism. Turning those opportunities into sustainable care requires stronger operations, adequate contracts, and teams with the right skills.

The conversation also examines the overlap between home-based primary care and palliative care. As programs consider broader responsibilities, leaders must weigh patient needs against their capacity to deliver—and resist the pressure to keep doing more with less.

In this episode:

Define your role in community-based palliative care.
Align payment arrangements with the cost of quality care.
Strengthen technology, infrastructure, and workforce capabilities.
Evaluate opportunities to integrate primary and palliative care.
Consider what state initiatives could teach us about a Medicare palliative care benefit.

Whether you lead a hospice, nonprofit, health system, or serious illness program, this discussion offers a practical starting point for decisions about growth, investment, and accountability.

Join the conversation: What does your organization need most to deliver sustainable palliative care: stronger payment, better infrastructure, or expanded clinical capabilities? Share your perspective in the comments.

The Future of Palliative Care: Who Will Lead, Who Will Pay, and What Comes Next? | Part One

Saison 7 · Épisode 33

mercredi 30 septembre 2026 • Durée 27:01

What will it take for palliative care to reach every patient who needs it—and who will ultimately pay for that care?

In Part One of “The Future of Palliative Care: Who Will Lead, Who Will Pay, and What Comes Next?”, host Chris Comeaux sits down with Brynn Bowman, CEO of the Center to Advance Palliative Care (CAPC), for a forward-looking conversation about the forces reshaping palliative care—and what healthcare leaders need to be watching now.

As palliative care principles spread across oncology, home health, Medicare Advantage, health systems, and other serious-illness models, an important question emerges: What actually makes something specialty palliative care? Brynn shares CAPC’s work to establish minimum standards for specialty palliative care programs, helping define expectations around services, staffing, training, quality, and outcomes.

Chris and Brynn also tackle one of the field’s most persistent challenges: reimbursement. Palliative care programs often piece together multiple revenue streams—from Part B billing and ACO or Medicare Advantage contracts to financial support from their parent organizations. CAPC’s Palliative Care Program Inventory seeks to create a clearer picture of where programs exist, how they are funded, and where significant access gaps remain.

The conversation then turns to CMS and the future of payment. Brynn explains why recent activity across hospice, home health, and the physician fee schedule may indicate increased federal attention to how Medicare beneficiaries with serious illness access palliative care—and why leaders should be paying attention to what happens next.

What You’ll Learn

• What palliative care access could look like five years from now
• Why specialty palliative care remains essential as other care models expand
• Why the field needs clearer minimum standards
• How palliative care programs are piecing together reimbursement today
• Where major rural and community-based access gaps remain
• Why training non-specialists and preserving specialty teams must happen together• What recent CMS activity could signal about future palliative care payment• What the proposed home health rule actually means for palliative care

AI Can’t Replace This: The Leadership Advantage That’s More Human Than Ever | Part Two

Saison 7 · Épisode 32

vendredi 25 septembre 2026 • Durée 27:59

What if the greatest leadership advantage in the age of AI is something technology can never truly replicate?

As artificial intelligence transforms how we work, lead, and communicate, the temptation is to use technology to accomplish more—and move even faster. But what if the real opportunity is to use AI to create more margin for the human work of leadership?

In Part Two of “AI Can’t Replace This: The Leadership Advantage That’s More Human Than Ever,” Chris Comeaux continues his conversation with Dr. Andrea Hollingsworth, author of The Compassion Advantage, exploring why self-compassion, resilience, values, hope, and genuine human connection are becoming essential leadership capabilities.

Andrea gets personal about her own experience with a relentless inner critic and burnout—and explains why self-compassion isn’t lowering the bar. It’s learning to respond to mistakes and difficult moments with kindness, accountability, and a growth mindset rather than shame and self-punishment.

Then the conversation turns directly to AI. Andrea challenges leaders to resist filling every minute technology saves with another task. Instead, she suggests using AI to free cognitive load and create greater capacity for presence, relationships, compassion, and connection. That may be where the true leadership advantage lies.

For healthcare, hospice, nonprofit, and business leaders navigating unprecedented change, this conversation offers both practical tools and an important challenge: Don’t let technology help you become more productive at the expense of becoming less human.

🎯 Highlights — What You’ll Learn

Why self-compassion is essential to resilient leadership—not a sign of weakness
How to turn down the inner critic without abandoning accountability
Why your core values can steady you during uncertainty and disruption
Practical habits leaders can use when feeling overwhelmed
The power of remembering: “I’m a supporter, not a savior.”
Why small acts of kindness can strengthen emotional resilience

AI Can’t Replace This: The Leadership Advantage That’s More Human Than Ever | Part One

Saison 7 · Épisode 31

mercredi 23 septembre 2026 • Durée 32:35

What if the greatest leadership advantage in the age of AI is something artificial intelligence can never truly replicate?

As AI becomes smarter, faster, and more embedded in the workplace, Dr. Andrea Hollingsworth believes the qualities that make us distinctly human—compassion, connection, vulnerability, and the ability to care—are becoming more valuable, not less.

In Part One of “AI Can’t Replace This: The Leadership Advantage That’s More Human Than Ever,” host Chris Comeaux sits down with Dr. Hollingsworth, founder and CEO of Hollingsworth Consulting and author of The Compassion Advantage: How Top Leaders Build More Humanizing Workplaces. Together, they explore what effective leadership looks like in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence.

Andrea introduces the powerful concept of “compassionate agility”—leading with genuine care and connection while still having the courage to make difficult decisions, navigate uncertainty, and drive organizational excellence. She also shares a principle every healthcare leader needs to hear: “Care, don’t carry.” Leaders can support their teams through stress, grief, and change without carrying the emotional weight themselves.

You’ll also hear an insightful discussion about therapeutic leadership coaching, vulnerability, emotional resilience, and the potential impact of AI on human identity. Rather than asking only what AI can do for us, Andrea challenges leaders to consider a deeper question: Is technology strengthening our capacity to think, create, connect, and solve problems—or slowly replacing the very experiences that help us grow?

In This Episode, You’ll Discover:

Why compassion could become an even greater leadership advantage in the AI era
What compassionate agility looks like in practice
Why leaders need to “care, don’t carry”
How vulnerability can strengthen leadership and organizational culture
Why personal healing and self-awareness influence how we lead others
How to use AI to enhance human connection rather than replace it

The Critical Competencies Hospice Leaders Must Build for Value-Based Care Success | Part Two

Saison 7 · Épisode 30

vendredi 18 septembre 2026 • Durée 31:26

Hospice is changing—and the leaders who prepare now will be positioned to shape what comes next.

In Part Two of The Critical Competencies Hospice Leaders Must Build for Value-Based Care Success, host Chris Comeaux continues his conversation with Dr. Jessica Hubbs about what hospice and palliative care organizations need to succeed as healthcare moves toward more integrated, value-based models.

What capabilities should hospice organizations build internally—and when should they partner? Dr. Hubbs explores the growing convergence of home-based primary care, palliative care, and hospice, and why a more seamless continuum could give seriously ill patients access to the right services based on need rather than simply a point in time.

The conversation also examines complex care management, Medicare Advantage, dementia and length-of-stay challenges, and how hospice can expand upstream without losing what makes the hospice model so valuable. For leaders preparing their organizations for the next 12–24 months, Dr. Hubbs identifies three essential investments: clinical infrastructure, data, and strategic partnerships.

Highlights — What You’ll Learn

Preparing hospice for value-based care
Building the right strategic partnerships
Integrating primary, palliative, and hospice care
Better serving complex and high-need patients
Expanding care upstream without losing hospice’s mission
Using data to improve care and outcomes
Investing in clinical capabilities, data, and partnerships
Keeping patients at the center of change

Above all, this episode brings the conversation back to the mission: doing right by the patient. In a healthcare environment filled with reimbursement pressure, regulatory change, and uncertainty, patient-centered leadership can remain the compass for innovation and better serious illness care.

In this episode discover the competencies hospice leaders should be building today to prepare for the future of value-based care.

The Critical Competencies Hospice Leaders Must Build for Value-Based Care Success | Part One

Saison 7 · Épisode 29

mercredi 16 septembre 2026 • Durée 31:51

The future of hospice is being rewritten—and the organizations that prepare now may be the ones best positioned to serve patients in a value-based world.

Healthcare is rapidly moving beyond traditional fee-for-service toward models focused on outcomes, total cost of care, and coordinated care delivery. In Part One of The Critical Competencies Hospice Leaders Must Build for Value-Based Care Success, host Chris Comeaux sits down with Dr. Jessica Hubbs, Internist and Chief Clinical Officer at Advanced Care Innovations, to explore what this transformation means for hospice and palliative care leaders.

Dr. Hubbs examines emerging models such as LEAD (Long-term Enhanced ACO Design) and why moving care further upstream could create both disruption and significant opportunity for hospice organizations. The conversation explores how hospice's strengths in advanced care planning, complex conversations, patient goals and values, and interdisciplinary care could become increasingly valuable across the broader serious illness continuum.

But succeeding in this new environment will require new capabilities. Chris and Dr. Hubbs discuss the importance of end-to-end clinical care, complex primary care, care coordination, financial-risk readiness, and collaborative partnerships with ACOs and other risk-bearing organizations—and why the future may be less about competing for the patient and more about building integrated models around them.

Episode Highlights

Why hospice leaders need to understand the shift to value-based care
What the LEAD model could mean for serious illness care
The opportunity to bring hospice expertise further upstream
Critical clinical capabilities hospice organizations need to develop
Combining hospice and palliative expertise with home-based primary care
What ACOs and risk-bearing organizations want from hospice partners

Guest: Dr. Jessica Hubbs, Internist and the Chief Clinical Officer at Advanced Care Innovations

Your Culture Isn't What You Say—It's What You Tolerate | Part Two

Saison 7 · Épisode 28

vendredi 11 septembre 2026 • Durée 22:42

Your culture isn’t defined by what your organization says it values—it’s revealed by the behaviors it allows, rewards, and repeats.

In Part Two of Your Culture Isn't What You Say—It's What You Tolerate, host Chris Comeaux continues his conversation with author and leadership expert Tom Foster about what it takes to intentionally build a strong organizational culture.

Tom challenges leaders to look beyond KPIs and productivity metrics and examine whether the behaviors being measured actually support the organization’s mission and purpose. Using examples from healthcare and home health, they explore how well-intentioned performance measures can sometimes work against the outcomes leaders truly want.

Chris and Tom also discuss practical ways to evaluate culture—including examining behaviors, organizational systems, customs and rituals, and actually going to see the work firsthand. The conversation explores the relationship between leadership, workplace culture, strategy, employee development, organizational behavior, and performance—and why culture and strategy continuously shape one another.

One leadership principle captures the heart of the episode:

“Reality always wins. The biggest challenge for the leader is simply to get in touch with it.” — Tom Foster

If you're a healthcare leader, hospice professional, nonprofit executive, or business leader, this episode will challenge you to look beyond the culture you intend to create and examine the culture your organization is actually producing.

Featuring: Tom Foster, President of Foster Learning Corporation and author of Premeditated Culture: The Consequences of What We Tolerate,

Host: Chris Comeaux, President / CEO of TELEIOS, author of The Anatomy of Leadership
