Bob and Dutch in this episode ask the age old question "Did you do the most?" What's your Didymos killer? Did you do the most as a healthcare leader to take out the proverbial asteroids that are diminishing healthcare and making the path to affordable medicine cluttered with trash and debris? As a nation, we spend millions of dollars on targeting Earth killer sized asteroids but when it comes to our healthcare we take a much less pragmatic approach. Why does this continue and what moral obligation do healthcare leaders have to do everything in their power to stop it and THINK DIFFERENTLY? Is tech alone the answer, or do we need better leaders in healthcare or both? Ready to join the conversation then visit www.SMASHitHealthcare.com and let us know what's on your mind.

One must ask their peers often..."Why are great leaders so few and far between?" Some leaders have an innate relentless pursuit to build something great and lead those around them to do the same. In this episode Bob speaks once again with Dutch Rojas, the CEO of Sano Surgery, a fearless leader in a world where the coveted position is akin to a spring of cool water in a sea of sand. Dutch carries his torch high and his sword higher as he forges on in the fight for a stronger healthcare system for all. So where does it begin? Where do the challenges become foregone conclusions of success achieved? It starts with strong leaders like Dutch that are willing to challenge the naysayers and slay the enemies of growth. You're going to wanna sharpen your sword while listening to this one. Grab your grindstones, listen up, and prepare to do a fearless and moral inventory because its time to measure up and ultimately...stand up or shut up!

Dear SMASHer... buckle your seatbelt! It sounds like a page ripped out of a comic book but this time its real. Every once in a legendary while a star is born and iconic figure emerges from the fire of pain that's been pelted to those in need, you know the ones less fortunate than most. As they lift their heads and stare at the mountaintop a victor raises his voice, clenches his fist, and through the grit of his teeth says, "This terror stops NOW!". The hero in this story doesn't wear a cape, although it may be fitting. Instead this is a man of high moral character, the intestinal fortitude of a true warrior, and confidence of one branded by an eagle, globe, and anchor. His honor, his courage, and his commitment is to eliminate that which stops healthcare from becoming affordable for all. The man is none other than Dutch Rojas!

In episode 14 we journey through the technological realm that most of us experience daily in different shapes and sizes. We "sometimes" efficiently interact socially and operate in our own private lives and circles, with the use of technology, better than one may do at a top tier organization. Team SMASH focuses on medical device suppliers and their distributors as well as hospitals and ambulatory surgery centers. We stand up look executives directly in the ear and ask..."What type of team should your med device company be developing in this technological age?". Do you have what it takes to breach next level or are you stagnant in an analog diaphragm of labored breathing and diminishing profit? Be real and get SMASHed... tune in if you're ready!

How do we quantify the cost of the inefficiencies in medical device supplier operations? How can collecting and crunching the data help? In this episode Bob and Jon discuss the different ways that inefficiencies in medical device supplier operations have created barriers to entry, loss of sales, inventory management issues, critical setbacks in logistics, and much more from their 30 plus years of experience in med device. One major takeaway is that medical device executives and hospital administrators are certainly not using all of the benefits technology has to offer.
