• What I Learned from Our Virtual Summer Interns

  

  With all the events happening in the world today, it’s easy to form a negative view of the future. But there’s much room for optimism.

• A virtual view of health care

  In every part of the business and public community we are all striving to find ways to improve our physical and mental health.

It’s always an amazing experience to learn about new ideas in health and other societal matters from around the world. As a strong believer in the importance of lifelong learning, Davos is a place where there is always something new to learn.……

  Our health is influenced by the care we receive through health systems, but also our daily lives in the community. Check out my interview with Squawk Box on CNBC about how @Humana is helping our members, many of whom are living with multiple chronic conditions, stay in their homes and out of the hospital. hashtag#wef19……
