We are excited to be back on-air with a great lineup of guests!
This week, Dr. Elvira will speak with Juan Carlos Negrette, Managing Director of Johns Hopkins Medicine International (JHI). JHI provides personalized care for patients traveling to Johns Hopkins from outside the United States, and collaborates with affiliates across the world to improve health care globally.
They will discuss the private sector roles in health interventions and development in general. Specifically, the components of a successful partnership, and how does one go about developing these relationships to meet their own project goals while addressing the concerns about profit driven motives from private companies and cost of services.
Juan Carlos Negrette has over 23 years of extensive international experience in health programs design, implementation and management. Juan Carlos has directed health service delivery programs and commercial healthcare activities, and has structured and developed partnerships of strategic importance with relevant private sector companies and government entities.
Juan Carlos has effectively adopted and adapted commercial tools, techniques and approaches to child and maternal health interventions, and to family planning programs in different parts of the world. Mr. Negrette has also designed and implemented effective strategic marketing and communication interventions in challenging environments in Asia, Africa and Latin America. Mr. Negrette is fluent in Spanish and English; conversational in French and has basic knowledge of Portuguese.
