SubscribeWhat I'm trying to get the whole higher education and workplace training and education universe to think about is how the Fortnite generation is now coming into higher education and into the workplace. We can take this generation and force them into the old ways but I have a feeling that the new ways are going to emerge and a lot of that is immersive. In an AR VR PC computer sort of way, it's socially kinesthetic gamified. If we can meet them where they're at, I think we're going to be more successful with training and also gain stronger and happier employees.

So much of your consumer life can be transacted digitally. We can do mobile banking transactions and book flights on our phones. But when you hit the healthcare world, there's phone calls, there's faxes. I jokingly call it the lowest common denominator. If 100 percent of people can't do something on their phone then let's go to the lowest common denominator and make sure everyone makes a phone call or comes in for a face-to-face visit. But that does not meet consumer expectations. In healthcare it sort of hits this analog experience level. But it is changing.

It's crystal clear that the fee for service system we're all living under is abysmal. If you think back to what we did in March, we did all the right things to protect our patients, our communities and our workers. We stopped our elective procedures. We've amped up care in the home. We provided public health services for our communities and it was financially devastating. That should not be the case. It should be that we're always incentivized to do the right thing and that doing the right thing does not result in financial peril.
