Longitudinal Care

As healthcare shifts toward value-based care, what role does functional health play in improving outcomes while lowering costs? On this week’s episode of FOX Rehabilitation’s Live Better Longer podcast, FOX’s Chief Transformation Officer, Dr. Mandy Khaira, sits down with FOX’s Chief Growth & Strategy Officer, Dr. Jason Hazel, to explore the future of healthcare delivery. From the growing need for longitudinal care plans to the economics of in-home rehabilitation, Jason discusses how FOX is helping health systems, payers, and accountable care organizations rethink care. The conversation covers reducing hospitalizations, managing total cost of care, and the opportunity to support patients across the entire functional health continuum. It’s a fascinating look at where healthcare is headed and how FOX can help lead the way.
