Disability insurance simplified.  Bradley and Dr. Jessica Dudley explore the multifaceted aspects of patient satisfaction, debunking the myth that wait times are the sole determinant. Dr. Dudley highlights the importance of staff collaboration, effective communication, and the utilization of technology in enhancing patient experiences. She stresses the crucial role of leadership in fostering a positive work environment and the significant impact it has on patient care. The conversation also touches on the potential of ambient AI in streamlining processes and the importance of continuously engaging with both patient and staff feedback to drive improvements. Bio: Meet Dr. Jessica Dudley, the wonder woman of the healthcare world, whose resume is so packed with accomplishments, you'd think she's been secretly cloning herself to get it all done. Formerly the chief medical officer at the Brigham and Women's Physicians Organization, she juggled quality performance improvements like a pro, chaired performance oversight committees like it was her hobby, and dived into Population Health Management efforts as if healthcare reform was the next Olympic sport. But wait, there's more! Currently, she's the Chief Clinical Officer at Press Ganey, wearing her cape and leading the charge on workforce wellbeing. Here, she's not just improving patient satisfaction scores; she's revolutionizing the way healthcare teams operate, making sure every member from the front desk to the operating table feels valued, heard, and part of the greater good. When she's not transforming healthcare from the inside out, you might catch her quoting Bill Belichick (a classic New England move) or diving deep into the latest in ambient AI technology. In a nutshell, Dr. Dudley is the healthcare guru we all wish we had by our side during our last doctor's visit. With a blend of leadership, innovation, and a dash of wit, she's not just making waves; she's steering the ship towards a brighter healthcare future. And she does all this presumably while walking her dog, baking sourdough from scratch, and possibly mastering the art of teleportation. Who says you can't have it all?
