How Ochsner Health is taking on the leading health issues in Louisiana to improve patient outcomes

Is Louisiana a healthy state? How does geography affect health care? Why are community health programs important? How is health care affected by socioeconomic status?
Yvens Laborde, MD, chief community medical officer and medical director of global health education at Ochsner Health, joins for a new episode of the AMA's “What Keeps Me Up” series, where we talk with health care leaders about one thing that’s keeping them up-and what they’re doing about it. American Medical Association CXO Todd Unger hosts.
