Here’s what Kat had to say about her summer plans:
What are you most excited to learn this summer working for Nixon Gwilt?
“I am really excited to begin working at Nixon Gwilt this summer, specifically with the opportunity to work closely with high growth startups in the digital health and telemedicine space. The healthcare and life sciences sphere is constantly changing and I can’t wait to be right in the heart of all the action!”
What do you see as the most exciting innovation in healthcare/life science right now?
“Although not as novel as it once was, I am really interested to see the impact of integrating telehealth more broadly into our increasingly digitized healthcare system. I am curious to see how it will impact provider reimbursement models as we shift towards value based care and move from fee-for-service. The regulatory framework around telehealth, and consequentially, data privacy law, will definitely be transforming as we continue to adapt to a post-Covid society.”
What social causes are you most passionate about?
“I am passionate about healthcare advocacy broadly. For several years, I served as a Senior Health Educator with a nonprofit organization called Peer Health Exchange to provide a comprehensive health education curriculum to high school students and empower them with the skills they needed to make informed decisions about sex, alcohol and mental health. More specifically, I am interested in enhancing the overall health literacy rate, reducing the information asymmetry barrier between patients and providers and promoting increased access for uninsured or underinsured individuals.”
