Imaging, Visibility, and Value: Closing the Loop Between Scans and Outcomes

Virtual Expert Roundtable | Tuesday, July 7 | 12:00 PM ET 

There’s no shortage of conversation around value-based care in healthcare today. But ask what it actually means for radiology and imaging, and the room goes quiet. 

That’s about to change. 

On Tuesday, July 7 at 12:00 PM ET, a group of leading clinicians, operators, and radiology experts will convene for an expert roundtable: “Imaging, Visibility, and Value: Closing the Loop Between Scans and Outcomes.” 

The Questions No One Is Answering 

After extensive conversations with radiologists, operators, and clinicians, a set of uncomfortable questions keeps surfacing — ones that speak to a structural gap at the heart of healthcare’s value-based movement: 

  • What does “value” actually mean in radiology when radiologists don’t control ordering or follow-up? 
  • Are radiologists being measured on outcomes they don’t actually control? 
  • What happens when imaging surfaces care gaps — but no one owns closing them? 
  • Why is imaging one of the largest cost drivers in healthcare, yet rarely part of a value-based strategy? 
  • And if radiology’s impact isn’t being measured, who defines its value? 

These aren’t hypothetical questions. They reflect the daily reality facing radiology departments and health systems as they navigate a rapidly shifting reimbursement landscape. 

A Working Session, Not a Panel 

This roundtable is designed differently. Rather than a staged discussion with polished talking points, this is a working session — focused on surfacing what’s actually happening inside value-based environments today. 

The goal isn’t consensus. It’s clarity. 

Participants will examine where imaging is clearly creating value, where it’s breaking down, and what meaningful change would need to look like to close the loop between scans and patient outcomes. 

Expert Voices at the Table 

Hosted by INNOVA’s very own partner and population health practice leader, Dr. David Gorstein, MD, the roundtable brings together three prominent voices at the intersection of medicine, policy, and radiology: 

  • David B. Nash, MD, MBA — A nationally recognized leader in healthcare quality and population health, Dr. Nash brings decades of experience shaping value-based care strategy and policy. 
  • Arne Michalson, MD — A physician with deep clinical and operational insight into how imaging functions — and where it falls short — within modern care delivery systems. 
  • Dr. Scott Howell, MD — A radiology expert focused on translating imaging data into actionable clinical and operational outcomes. 

Why This Conversation Matters Now 

Imaging accounts for a significant share of healthcare spending — yet it remains conspicuously absent from most value-based care frameworks. As health systems face mounting pressure to demonstrate ROI and improve patient outcomes, the role of radiology is being redefined in real time. 

This roundtable offers a rare, frank look at the gap between what imaging could contribute to value-based care — and what’s actually being captured, measured, and acted upon today.

Navigating the Shift: The Future of Healthcare Technology Staffing

In today’s rapidly evolving healthcare landscape, technology is not just a tool but a transformative force driving improvements in patient care, operational efficiency, and overall healthcare delivery. At Innova People, we understand the critical role that healthcare technology plays in shaping the future of the industry. As a staffing firm dedicated to placing talent across healthcare & technology industries, we are at the forefront of this digital revolution. 

The Impact of Digital Transformation in Healthcare 

Digital transformation has revolutionized healthcare by integrating innovative solutions that enhance patient outcomes and streamline processes. Technologies such as telehealth, electronic health records (EHR), artificial intelligence (AI), and predictive analytics are reshaping how healthcare providers deliver care. The global electronic health records (EHR) market is projected to reach $42.12 billion by 2027, growing at a CAGR of 6.3% from 2020 to 2027. Telehealth, for example, has expanded access to healthcare services, especially in remote or underserved areas, while AI-driven diagnostics are improving diagnostic accuracy and efficiency. 

Emerging Roles in Healthcare Technology 

The rapid adoption of technology in healthcare has created a demand for specialized roles that bridge the gap between healthcare and IT. Positions like health informatics specialists, cybersecurity analysts, data scientists, and software developers are becoming increasingly crucial. These professionals are instrumental in ensuring the security of patient data, optimizing healthcare workflows, and leveraging data-driven insights to improve clinical decision-making. 

Addressing Talent Shortages in Critical Areas 

Despite the growing demand for healthcare technology professionals, the industry faces challenges in recruiting and retaining qualified talent. 59% of healthcare executives cite difficulty in recruiting health IT talent as a significant barrier. Innova People recognizes these challenges and offers tailored recruitment solutions to healthcare organizations seeking top-tier IT and healthcare professionals. Our extensive network and industry expertise allow us to connect skilled candidates with leading healthcare employers, ensuring a seamless match that meets both organizational and candidate needs. 

The Intersection of Healthcare and Technology 

The convergence of healthcare and technology is blurring traditional roles and creating new opportunities for innovation. Healthcare providers are increasingly relying on digital tools and technologies to deliver personalized patient care, improve operational efficiency, and manage population health. Healthcare spending on AI is projected to reach $45.2 billion by 2028. As technology continues to evolve, healthcare professionals must adapt by acquiring new skills and staying abreast of industry trends.
