Most healthcare turnarounds are slow, painful, and incremental. Cone Health delivered a $100 million financial improvement in a single fiscal year. In this episode, Dr. M. Ayoub Ashraf breaks down how they did it — where the improvement actually came from, the leadership and operational choices that made it possible, and why a result like this comes less from one dramatic move than from aligning cost, care, and accountability at the same time. The lesson isn't the headline number; it's the repeatable playbook underneath it.
