Mindsip insights from this episode:
Shift focus to patients for optimized healthcare experience
Providers and hospitals often see the insurance company as their end customer, not the patient, which is why the consumer experience is not optimized.
Understand high drug costs due to trial failures
As many as 85-90% of drugs that enter Phase II human trials fail, and the cost of these failures is passed on to the few successful drugs.
Leverage AI to streamline appointment scheduling
Companies are already developing AI bots that can call multiple doctor's offices to find and schedule the best appointment for you.
Prepare for AI therapists that blur human boundaries
We are likely only three to five years away from AI therapists that are so advanced you may not be able to tell if they are human.
Embrace mobile healthcare for future wellness
In the next 30 years, it's predicted that 90% of all healthcare will be delivered directly through your phone.
Leverage AI to disrupt service-heavy healthcare industry
While AI is more expensive than traditional software, it is significantly cheaper than human services, making it ideal for disrupting the service-heavy healthcare industry.
Transform biology into a systematic engineering discipline for health
Biology is shifting from an artisanal craft into a systematic engineering discipline, allowing for programmable approaches to health and medicine.
Train AI to exhibit empathy through nurse conversations
When an AI is trained on millions of conversations with empathetic nurses, the AI itself can learn and exhibit empathy.
Bridge healthcare's tech gap for innovation
Only one of the hundred biggest software companies in the world is a healthcare company, which highlights the industry's lack of technological penetration.
Embrace preventative healthcare to meet new consumer demand
Unlike the usual fast growth seen with vanity drugs, there is a new, powerful consumer demand for preventative healthcare, signaling a major shift in the market.
