I had the pleasure of attending the Value Based Healthcare Delivery Course. It was an opportunity to step outside my clinical duties and explore patient centered care, quality in healthcare, and payment structures. The course taught us how to be successful leaders with a range of leadership styles. In addition to the outstanding faculty, I had the opportunity to meet a number of trainees across the MGB system with different perspectives from multiple specialties and institutions. 

As an anesthesiologist, I hope to use these lessons when approaching projects to improve operations, patient safety, and patient experience. This course was a reminder that as a physician we have a duty to engage not only in medicine but broader healthcare delivery. It provided a vocabulary and structure to start improving care.
