Valued Based Care
Value Based Care (VBC) is inevitable and many organizations seek strategies to better understand the framework and what it means for their organization. In Washington DC, more and more levers are being turned to make this expand. Even at a global level. Value is measured as the outcomes that matter to patients over the costs to deliver those outcomes. I designed and executed global engagements on value based care at Harvard Business School with industry, health systems, private practices, NGOs, and the public sector.
AI in Healthcare
AI, especially Responsible AI, will make healthcare delivery easier. More efficient, effective, and convenient. But it depends on how we incorporate AI into the already busy clinical workflows, figure out the tasks AI should take on, or how to train health care professionals on how to use Gen AI, other AI tools. There's a lot of noise with AI and I can help you cut through it with a sense of focus and direction as you develop your AI strategy.
Mahek advises business on:
Patient-Centered Care
Healthcare is moving towards a more patient-centric model of delivery. It's what all other parts of our economy revolves around.
So why should healthcare be any different?
I help organizations break through the noise to find clarity in reorganizing, reimagining healthcare.
Digital Transformation
Every company needs a digital transformation.
Let's develop innovative digital strategies that drive sales and engagements, showcasing the value proposition of your products and services.
Thought Leadership
Optimize your thought leadership and strategy, enhancing your presence online with a clear value proposition, market positioning, to enable yourself for growth, strategic partnerships, and acquisition
Are you reaching your target customers? Does your target audience know who you are and what you offer?
Customer and Patient Experience
What is your customer or patient experience?
Are you satisfied with it?
Can you measure it effectively?
Do you have tools to measure and therefore improve it?
As a consultant, I help organizations develop strategies to achieve mission-critical goals and support program and policy execution through to launch and steady state. I specialize in helping organizations in the formative stages of integrating medical, behavioral, and social care into a value-based care mission. I bring deep expertise in the clinical drivers of health, change management, and work with public, private, and non-profit organizations.

Dr. Steve Goudy, MD, MBA | Otolaryngologist
Vice-Chairman at Emory University School of Medicine
Mahek and I have known each other for the last 10 years, and during that time we have discussed how healthcare processes can be improved through the use of business-based principles (Time-dependent activity based costing as an example). Mahek's ability to unlock this value for organizations (both academic and private hospitals) has made real impact in value-based care. I am impressed how Mahek is able to change cultures within these large organizations to derive value AND improve employee satisfaction.

Dr. Shah delivered an excellent presentation and panel at the Value Based Population Health symposium in Dallas, Texas. Common sense, simple, and humble approach.
Very succinct message:
1) Is the data meaningful?
2) Can I, as the CEO, communicate value to stakeholders?
3) Can my organization make the data actionable?
Conversion to value occurs when you are able to channel data, invest in human capital, and guide by philosophy of change.
I would highly recommend Dr. Mahek Shah to speak, consult and collaborate with any organization.
