In this episode of AW360, we sit down with Ramsey McGrory, President of Prisma, to explore how the advertising industry can cut through complexity and rediscover simplicity. McGrory shares why he views his career as a relay race, how Prisma has evolved into a critical orchestration layer for modern marketing, and what true efficiency looks like in today's fractured TV and digital ecosystem. From ad serving's transformation beyond “plumbing,” to the rise of AI as a practical tool for planning, measurement, and optimization, Ramsey offers a front-row perspective on how advertisers can consolidate, innovate, and thrive in a hedged-garden world.

Episode #390: The exhibition Fragmentation, hosted earlier this year at Bangkok Art and Culture Center and co-organized by SEA Junction and A New Burma, presented haunting photographs of displaced teachers and students in Karenni State, capturing both devastation and resilience in the midst of war. Through a series of interviews, curators and participants reflected on the deeper meanings of these images.Tim, the co-curator and graphic designer, explained the deliberate effort to avoid sensationalizing suffering, instead showing both the grief of loss and the ordinariness of children still learning. He recalls how the sound of school bells had come to double as an airstrike siren, a chilling metaphor for the normalization of fear.Nicola Edwards, an education researcher, highlights how schools and health facilities have become deliberate military targets. Yet she notes that this destruction has catalyzed new, community-driven education systems, from jungle classrooms to mother-tongue curricula, where untrained but dedicated volunteers sustain children's learning and safety.Patrick, a frontline doctor in Karenni, describes the direct targeting of hospitals and the horrific injuries he treats daily, many of them children. Though he has survived airstrikes and seen atrocities firsthand, he emphasized solidarity among medical workers and the determination to continue serving despite trauma.Mya Hein, a Muslim student unionist, reflects on his political awakening, the discrimination he faced, and how the revolution has brought fleeting moments of solidarity alongside lingering structural inequalities. He urged that minority rights must be central to any genuine future for Myanmar.Finally, artist and organizer MCP spoke of the revolution's impact on art, where creativity has become both a tool of survival and a means of political dialogue. For him, art conveys truths and emotions beyond statistics, keeping Myanmar's suffering—and hope—visible to the world.Together, their voices reveal a portrait of education, health, identity, and creativity as intertwined acts of resistance.

In this episode of Quality Talks With Peggy O'Kane, NCQA President Peggy O'Kane speaks with primary care and health IT veteran Dr. Marc Overhage.Marc notes that many of health care's challenges are design problems—and design problems can be solved. The conversation highlights trailblazing models like hospital-at-home and the need for better data availability at the point of care. Marc's optimism about the next five to ten years is rooted in the belief that we have the tools, data and momentum to improve not just a handful of care processes, but thousands.Topics Marc and Peggy explore include:How a Transactional Mindset Undermines Quality: Marc sees what he calls “transactional” care as a design flaw that reduces care to disconnected snippets, leaving patients confused and providers unable to coordinate or focus on wellness.Clinical Decision Support as a Design Solution: Embedding quality into the care process is preferable to measuring quality after-the-fact.The Limits of Traditional Quality Measurement: Retrospective scoring frustrates clinicians and fails to drive real-time improvement. A better way is possible!Redesigning Hospitalization: Marc highlights how better logistics, financial models and care coordination—like hospital-at-home—could reduce unnecessary stays and improve transitions of care.Key Quote: It really is a question of how do you build quality into the care process, not measure it in. We all know that measuring into a manufacturing or a creation process is a limited strategy. It only goes so far.And the Toyota Production System, the Danaher Business System, other very successful models are predicated on, How do you build quality into the process as it's happening, have the ability to pull the chain and stop the production line if something isn't working, and continuously improve it?How do you stop and say, Okay, why are so many of our patients not being fully treated for their congestive heart failure? What is in the way? How do we improve it?-- Marc Overhage, MDTime Stamps:(02:57) Fragmentation and Transactional Care(07:04) Incentives and Profit Maximization(10:52) What Real-Time Data Helps Clinicians Achieve(19:34) Turning Clinical Insight into Actionable Care Plans(23:30) Encouraging Innovation and Trailblazing(29:12) Peggy's ReflectionsLinks:Connect with Marc

Welcome to 'AI Lawyer Talking Tech', the podcast where we explore the transformative impact of artificial intelligence on the legal world. In today's episode, we delve into how AI is rapidly reshaping legal practices, from enhancing operational efficiency and boosting profitability to redefining client acquisition and document management. We'll discuss the significant surge in AI adoption across the legal profession, with a majority of lawyers now embracing tools like generative AI to increase billable work and achieve a better work-life balance. This era is seeing the rise of "hybrid lawyers" who leverage AI to move beyond repetitive tasks, focusing instead on critical thinking and strategic legal analysis. While innovations like the Model Context Protocol (MCP) promise seamless interoperability between legal tech systems, we'll also address the crucial concerns around data accuracy, security, and the evolving role of human expertise in an increasingly AI-driven legal landscape. Join us as we examine how law firms are making strategic investments in AI to gain a decisive competitive edge and prepare for a future where technology is central to legal success.AI use gaining ground rapidly across legal profession2025-09-01 | Legal FuturesAI takeover: 50% of remote jobs to be replaced within 3 years as machines outperform humans in fairness and accuracy2025-09-01 | NaturalNews.comLaw firm staff awarded 5% bonus as it chalks up 9.2% rise in annual turnover2025-09-01 | TheBusinessDesk.comTrailblazing tech law firm opens first international office in London One of Europe's most active tech law firms has opened its first international office in London's...2025-09-01 | BusinessCloud.co.ukAI, innovation and life as a ‘hybrid lawyer'2025-09-01 | Legal CheekWhat Is MCP and Why You Need It2025-09-01 | Artificial LawyerNetDocuments Expands ndMAX Studio with Three New AI-Powered Apps for Litigation and Startup Financing2025-09-01 | Legal Technology News - Legal IT Professionals | Everything legal technologyInnovations in Legal Drafting: Modern Techniques for 20252025-09-01 | Legaltech on MediumProlog: The Forgotten Language That Powers Legal Tech and AI2025-09-01 | Legaltech on MediumAddressing the Fragmentation in Legal Client Acquisition: The Role of AI Agents and the Case of MagNet2025-09-01 | Legal Tech BlogArtificial Intelligence (AI): powering law firm profitability2025-09-01 | Legal Technology News - Legal IT Professionals | Everything legal technologyLawyer: Firefighter arrested by Border Patrol while fighting wildfire had been waiting 7 years for legal status2025-08-30 | 12News.comHow a Single Hashtag Led to a Zero Inheritance Payout2025-08-30 | Budget and the BeesInvestigation Launched on Data Breach Affecting TransUnion Clients2025-08-29 | InvestorsHangout.comLowenstein COO Michael R.

Mari Otsu joins Stephen Blackwood for a deeply personal conversation about her journey through the wounds of materialism, ideology, and spiritual forgetting, and her return to the soul through the beauty of the humanities. Reflecting on her years at NYU and the Grand Central Atelier, Mari speaks of a longing that nothing in the modern, politicized worldview could satisfy, and how she found healing in therapy, classical painting, and, most profoundly, the living philosophical community of Ralston College. Engaging with the works of Plotinus, Boethius, and Dante, she discovered a path of purification and ascent that restored her sense of meaning and inspired her to share these treasures with others. This conversation explores the roots of today's meaning crisis and the redemptive power of beauty, thought, and imagination to heal the soul.

Chris Haas of Blume Global talks about how IoT is reinventing rail freight visibility and building a more agile, optimized intermodal network for everyone.   IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.55] IoT and its role in intermodal. [05.15] The big, macro-level challenges Blume see across the intermodal freight ecosystem. “Intermodal logistics is inherently complex – there's multiple modes, multiple stakeholders, and disconnected systems which makes visibility a real challenge.” [06.48] How big industry challenges translate to a business level, the day-to-day challenges Blume see their clients facing, and why visibility is critical to navigating those challenges. “Fragmentation, theft risks, equipment inefficiencies – all of that shows up in day-to-day operations. When you don't have visibility, delays and missed hand-offs often go unnoticed, until it's too late… And that reactive mode causes stress across the board.” [10.02] The lack of IoT adoption across North America and, despite that underdeveloped adoption, the huge potential IoT holds to modernize intermodal operations. “For a long time IoT was seen as expensive, complex and hard to scale, devices were pricey and battery life was limited. Many legacy systems just weren't built to handle real-time IoT data, so you can understand the hesitation to invest in something that didn't feel practical.” [14.58] How IoT has evolved, particularly for rail. “It used to just be GPS… but now that we have smart geofencing, sensors, temperature and humidity monitors and predictive alerts, we've gone from: ‘Where's my stuff?' to: 'Here's what's happening, why, and what to do next' – it's exciting transformation!” [16.12] The different types of use cases for IoT in intermodal freight, and their impacts. “Insights let businesses course-correct, before it turns into a systemic problem.” [17.55] Why IoT is a win-win for all stakeholders from shippers and railroads to IMCs, and how it's delivering tangible benefits across the entire supply chain. [19.08] The Blume tools that process 1.3 million IoT events per day, and what those events look like. “It can sound overwhelming. The key is not just collecting the data, it's making it usable.” [22.14] How the Blume platform helps customers to manage all of that data and deliver visibility for scale and flexibility. [24.30] A case study exploring how Blume worked with an IMC to establish geofencing and GPS tracking solutions, helping them achieve a range of positive results from real-time visibility to recovering stolen containers. [27.25] How IoT can help to build a more agile, optimized intermodal network, and the impact of that for the industry.  “We're really talking about removing the guesswork, and replacing it with real-time intelligence. The intermodal ecosystem is under a lot of pressure, rising cost, tighter service expectations… With everyone operating with limited or delayed information, the system ends up being reactive rather than proactive and IoT changes that. It's created a shared single source of truth.” [29.17] What's to come for Blume Global.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Blume Global's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Ross Hickey of Shippeo talks about supply chain visibility - closing gaps, building future-proof tech stacks, change management, and driving business value.  IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [03.39] An introduction to Ross and his role at Shippeo, and a reminder of who Shippeo are and how they help their customers. [04.45] From in-transit uncertainty to the first and last miles, the typical blind spots Shippeo see with their customers, the problem of fragmentation, and why organizations often overlook key areas in their transportation networks. “Fragmentation really is the root cause behind so many problems.” [07.53] How businesses can start to evaluate their ecosystem to shine a light on blind spots and tackle fragmentation. “Organizations need to take a more diagnostic approach at the actual problem itself.” [10.24] Shippeo's seven value drivers, and how closing visibility gaps leads to overall performance improvement. “What if your logistics team had immediate access to information at their fingertips, understanding exactly what's going on with their shipment and proactively alerting the external stakeholders as to what's going on? Meaning any time a customer is reaching out, you can treat that as an escalation, that shouldn't be standard business as usual.” [15.25] How real-time visibility impacts key business outcomes for Shippeo customers. “Think of visibility as your system of information powering your system of orchestration.” [18.25] Understanding your ‘why' and leveraging that to build a business case for real-time visibility. [20.58] How organizations should be thinking about their tech stack as they look to translate visibility into business value. “The technology is the enabler, to enable people to become more effective in achieving the outcomes they want to achieve. So rather than focusing on: ‘What tech do I specifically need?' It's about identification of the problem, and aligning technology to that.” [25.31] The importance of partnership, and how businesses should approach choosing the right partner, ensuring that their investment is scalable and technology future-proof. [29.17] Why change management is critical to digital transformation, and how organizations can shift their teams mindset to work with new solutions in a more strategic, proactive way. “The technology works, but getting people to adapt to it, to work with it and use the information they're being given – that's the bigger challenge.” [34.04] Collaboration and what successful cross-functional alignment needs to look like. [36.27] Ross's final words of advice for listeners to take away from today's discussion.   RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Shippeo's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

What happens when you pause to reflect on months of real estate conversations? Adam & Matt sit down to dissect six compelling ideas that emerged from their most recent podcast episodes. From the development industry's organizational challenges to the power of social media narratives in real estate, the brothers connect insights across conversations, revealing systemic issues that shape Vancouver's housing market. The conversation explores why today's market downturn rivals the leaky condo crisis, how performative content distorts market perception, and why the pre-sale model deserves more credit than it gets. What lessons can the housing industry learn from how doctors organized against “quacks” a century ago? Why do negative real estate takes consistently outperform balanced analysis on social media and why is that a problem? And what makes certain SkyTrain stations the equivalent of waterfront property in today's market? It's a deep dive on some of the most interesting and unique takes over the last months. Listen up!

It's a process.[18:45] The Role of the Holy Spirit in Healing Your HeartThe book of Isaiah proclaims Jesus' mission to heal the brokenhearted and proclaim liberty to the captives.The Hebrew word for soul is the same as the word for heart — heal the heart, and you heal the soul. [20:07] Samantha: “If we follow Yeshua, how do we heal the brokenhearted?...How do we proclaim liberty to the captive? So there's healing of the soul.” Healing the soul allows faithful Christians to walk in victory and power.[22:07] Understanding Triggers and Their ImpactA trigger is something or someone that reminds us of past trauma, particularly unresolved pain.A memory, feeling, or event can pull someone back to the moment of their trauma, “triggering” what they felt at the time; hence the term “trauma triggers”.Partners in marriage need to understand each other's trauma triggers to avoid — or even heal — conflicts between them.Michelle shares an example of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse whose trauma triggers were specific words.Christians should not allow triggers to control them but seek help and healing to respond as Yeshua would.[34:24] Medication, Healing, and the Word of GodReagan shares her personal experience with anxiety and the decision to avoid medication in favor of healing through the Word of God.Medication isn't the only answer to managing your trauma triggers. It's more important to address the root cause.Healing is a process. Medication can help, but Christians should not be quick to resort to it without addressing the underlying issues.Discipleship and counseling are powerful tools in the healing process. [38:39] The Fragmentation of the SoulSoul fragmentation is where parts of the soul detach to cope with intolerable trauma.Michelle tells the story of a child who fragments their soul to cope with abuse, explaining how this coping mechanism helps them survive.True healing is achieved when a Christian can integrate the fragmented parts of her soul.Only Yeshua can integrate the fragmented parts of the soul and heal the wounds.[48:10] The Impact of Satanic Ritual Abuse on the SoulMichelle shares a story of a survivor of satanic ritual abuse who was triggered by certain words and needed to reject the thoughts and choose to do the right thing.Survivors of satanic ritual abuse often have deep-seated triggers and need specialized healing.As Christians, we have to understand the programming and mind control used in satanic rituals to address the trauma triggers effectively.It is only through Yeshua that Christians can heal the deep-seated wounds inflicted by satanic rituals and abuse.[58:48] Spreading True Healing to Those in NeedNot enough Christians understand the reality of how spiritual healing works, preventing them from receiving healing. [59:04] Reagan: “This is real. This is real life. It happens. It's in our churches, it's in our small, little towns, it's in our big cities. It's everywhere. But we're not believing that it's real, and so those people are sitting there hurting, you know, and and not getting the healing that they need from their fragmented souls” We can be emissaries of that healing and a channel for God's peace when we join movements to reach out, like Pulse 100.Becoming a channel for God's peace is also a way for us to grow spiritually. About MichelleMichelle Young is a devoted servant of God, with over 30 years of experience in discipling and counseling those seeking spiritual healing and freedom. As a passionate teacher and pastoral counselor, Michelle specializes in guiding individuals through the healing of emotional wounds and breaking spiritual bondage through the power of Christ.Michelle holds a degree in psychology from Liberty University and continues her studies at Revelation Gateway Academy, focusing on ministering to survivors of satanic ritual abuse. She is also a dedicated wife, mother, and grandmother, committed to seeing God's people walk in the freedom for which Christ died.Connect with Michelle through her ministry work and LinkedIn.About SamanthaSamantha Miley is a devoted Christian, wife, and mother of five. She is married to her college sweetheart, Ralph, and their family journey reflects their deep faith and commitment to God.

In this conversation, Dan Frommer, founder and editor in chief of The New Consumer, discusses the complexities of consumer behavior, particularly in relation to food choices. He explores the dichotomy between what consumers say they want and what they actually purchase, emphasizing the influence of technology, marketing, and generational differences. The discussion also touches on the challenges posed by ultra-processed foods and the importance of real food in promoting health and well-being. Throughout the conversation, Frommer shares insights from his research, highlighting the need for education and understanding in navigating consumer trends.Takeaways:Understanding consumer behavior is crucial for effective marketing.There is often a gap between what consumers say they want and what they actually buy.Food choices are influenced by technology and social media.Generational and gender differences play a significant role in food preferences.Education about food and health is essential for consumers.Surveys can provide valuable insights but have limitations.Real food is preferable to ultra-processed options for health.Trust in institutions is declining, leading consumers to rely on influencers.Personalization in food choices is becoming more important.Gratitude and mindfulness can enhance consumer satisfaction. Sound bites:“The healthiest foods that make people also the happiest are grapes, blueberries, and broccoli.”“Chocolate makes Gen Xers happier than any other product makes any other generation in all our research.”“I'm really interested to see companies finding ways to help people to make food choices that are not only considered smart on a macro level, but are the right thing for them personally.”“Younger people believe that grocers, online grocers especially, have a responsibility to recommend healthy food.”“Ultra-processed foods, a great example of something where people have very strong opinions about it, but don't actually know what they are.”“It's very hard to get Americans to agree on anything, but something that both Democrats and Republicans agree on in our research is that the government should be doing more to regulate ultra processed food than it has in the past.”“There's increasing awareness around seed oils. Some people are convinced that they are toxic and that they are killing Americans and making us all have terrible health. Other people, including scientists, are saying that is nonsense.”“The US is not in a recession, but most people think it is. So what do do about that?”“The people who are buying the cheapest, least environmentally friendly stuff are also the ones who are saying that they are more willing to go out of their way and spend more money for the environment.”“I think if we all just ate more real food, I think that would probably have a better outcome for so many different elements of the food chain of our health, wellness, etc.”Links:Dan Frommer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/fromedome/The New Consumer - https://newconsumer.com/The New Consumer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/newconsumer/The New Consumer on X - https://x.com/newconsumerThe New Consumer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/newconsumerConsumer Trends: Food Feelings Matrix - https://newconsumer.com/2025/05/consumer-trends-food-feelings-healthy-happy/Consumer Trends: Food & Wellness 2025 - https://newconsumer.com/2025/03/introducing-the-consumer-trends-2025-food-wellness-special-report/How Americans really think about seed oils, Poppi & Olipop, and MAHA - https://newconsumer.com/2025/03/how-americans-really-think-about-seed-oils-poppi-olipop-and-maha/Consumer Trends: Beauty Special 2025 - https://newconsumer.com/2025/04/introducing-the-consumer-trends-beauty-special-2025/…Brands for a Better World Episode Archive - http://brandsforabetterworld.com/Brands for a Better World on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/brand-for-a-better-world/Modern Species - https://modernspecies.com/Modern Species on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/modern-species/Gage Mitchell on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gagemitchell/…Print Magazine Design Podcasts - https://www.printmag.com/categories/printcast/…Heritage Radio Network - https://heritageradionetwork.org/Heritage Radio Network on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/heritage-radio-network/posts/Heritage Radio Network on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/HeritageRadioNetworkHeritage Radio Network on X - https://x.com/Heritage_RadioHeritage Radio Network on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/heritage_radio/Heritage Radio Network on Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/@heritage_radioChapters:03:00 Understanding Consumer Behavior05:59 Food Feelings: Happiness vs. Health08:58 Gender and Generational Differences in Food Preferences12:10 The Role of Technology in Food Choices15:04 The Impact of Ultra-Processed Foods18:02 Consumer Awareness and Education20:49 The Future of Food Consumption23:58 Cultural Shifts in Food Perception37:13 Raising Awareness on Food Safety38:04 The Complexity of Defining Health39:26 Evolving Perspectives on Nutrition41:01 Influencers vs. Experts in Health42:57 The Fragmentation of Media and Trust47:16 The Debate on Seed Oils48:47 Consumer Behavior vs. Intentions53:14 Using Research Effectively59:10 Personal Insights and Recommendations01:06:10 The Importance of Real FoodSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Fragmentation special! It's all kicking off on the right and the left. Are our panic-stricken political classes talking Britain into a Farage premiership just by making it sound inevitable? And could Zarah Sultana's (possibly premature) launch of a new party of the anti-war left turn into a genuine threat to Labour? We're calling it CorbTana. It's going to catch on.

In this episode, Dr. Aimee goes live to answer your fertility questions, covering topics like DNA fragmentation, thyroid health, PCOS, embryo transfer timing, and more. She's joined by Paula the Producer and takes additional questions from viewers tuning in live! Here are the listener-submitted questions featured in this episode: 1. Sarah (39) from Maryland wrote in to ask: After four early pregnancy losses from unassisted conceptions, and now with four frozen euploid embryos, could DNA fragmentation still be a factor in causing miscarriage? 2. Stephanie (41) from California is wondering: Her doctor suggested doing a second egg retrieval and a frozen embryo transfer in the same week, using an embryo from the first retrieval. Is this really possible, and what are the pros and cons of doing both in one cycle? 3. Alex (38) from England asks Dr. Aimee: With a frozen embryo transfer coming up, does she really need to stop her favorite high-intensity workouts like Hyrox and Barry's Bootcamp? 4. Rebecca (37) from the United Kingdom is asking: After her TSH spiked unexpectedly to 27, can she still proceed with egg retrieval and freeze any good-quality embryos now, even if she needs to delay the transfer until her thyroid is back in range? 5. Lindsay (33) from Rhode Island wrote to ask: With a high antral follicle count but low mature egg yield, what else can she do (beyond lifestyle changes and supplements) to improve egg maturity during IVF? 6. Fab (37) from Australia wonders: After years of endometriosis, multiple surgeries, and one failed IVF cycle with no successful transfers, what can she do differently or consider for her upcoming round? 7. Elise (38) from Oregon wrote in with this question: She experienced intense pregnancy-like symptoms, like breast soreness, cramps, and dizziness, during failed transfers and unmedicated cycles. Is it possible for an embryo to cause these symptoms without actually implanting?

Anna Palumbo (SO/SP 9w8 937) returns for a second conversation—this time reflecting on the shifts she's experienced since our last recording. We begin with a live performance of her original song Wings for the Heart, a piece that emerged in the wake of personal rupture and now stands as both witness and balm. What follows is a layered exploration of emotional fragmentation, the disorienting effects of internal and external turbulence, and the slow, deliberate work of reweaving oneself from the inside out. Anna speaks candidly about a transformative road trip with her family that cracked something open—making space for parts of herself she'd long kept at bay. We discuss the cost of emotional suppression, the subtle tensions in relational dynamics, and the grounded power that comes from living with greater authenticity. What emerges is the portrait of a Nine learning to inhabit her full aliveness, not by transcending conflict but by letting all the pieces have a seat at the table.

Sean Jacobsohn, partner at Norwest, has a front-row seat to the action: He's backed 10 companies selling to CFOs, while Norwest has invested in 20.

Join us for an enlightening episode of SoundPractice featuring Lisa Kern, MD, MPH, a national expert, distinguished professor of medicine, and associate chief for research at Weill Cornell Medicine. In this episode, we explore Kern's unique career path — from her early fascination with communication as a psychology major at Harvard to her impactful research on healthcare delivery in the United States. Her journey reveals an enduring commitment to understanding and improving the healthcare system, driven by the impact of external factors like insurance and policy on patient care. This episode not only sheds light on the complexities of the American healthcare system but also underscores the importance of inter-professional collaboration and patient engagement in shaping the future of medicine. Key Takeaways: 1. Understanding Healthcare Fragmentation: Kern explains the concept of fragmentation, when patients see multiple providers without coordinated care, and the potential harm caused by a lack of coordination. 2. A Patient's Role in Healthcare Delivery: Fragmentation can lead to communication gaps and poor outcomes, particularly for older adults and minority populations. Kern provides tips for incorporating real-time patient input to enhance care coordination and satisfaction. 3. Inter-Professional Collaboration: Explore proposed policy changes to improve care delivery that focus on value over volume. Kern highlights alternative models for healthcare payment and delivery to better serve patients and reduce provider burnout. 4. The Future of Healthcare Delivery: Identify future challenges and opportunities in healthcare, including the integration of AI. She identifies the importance of ongoing dialogue and proactive measures to shape healthcare to meet the needs and expectations of the American population. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that challenges the status quo and explores innovative solutions for a more integrated and effective healthcare system.
