BACON - FINAL EPISODE #66
Guest: Dr. Asaf Bitton

In this special farewell episode of BACON, Drs. Heather Ward and Mike Clark welcome Dr. Asaf Bitton, keynote speaker for the upcoming MaineHealth ACO Value-Based Care Symposium on May 14. As Executive Director of Ariadne Labs and a leader in primary care innovation, Dr. Bitton shares insights from health care systems worldwide and discusses the evolving roles of primary care and specialists in risk-based models. 

This episode marks the final installment of BACON after six years and 66 episodes. But don’t worry—Heather and Mike will be back with a brand-new podcast: Curbside Consult! Designed to recreate the informal, valuable conversations between primary care providers and specialists that used to happen in hospital hallways, Curbside Consult kicks off with a discussion featuring pediatric endocrinologist Dr. Mike Dedekian. 

Stay tuned for the first episode, launching in early May! You’ll find Curbside Consult here and on your favorite podcast apps.
