If you've ever wondered why your deductible feels like a brick wall while insurers tout “savings,” this conversation goes straight to the source. Nathan Kaufman sits down with Mark Cuban to pull apart how PBMs and insurers shape drug prices, hide rebates, and use denials as financial float—while patients and providers pay the price. It's a rare, unfiltered tour through the pharmacy supply chain, medical loss ratio math, and the perverse incentives that keep care costly and complicated.We dig into the real-world fallout for physicians and hospitals: Medicare's stagnant updates, shadow-priced commercial contracts, and the administrative churn that drives independent practices into the arms of health systems or private equity. Mark challenges the industry to think like a startup—publish prices, strip out unnecessary vendors, and pay clinicians more with transparent, fixed margins. He shares why GPOs often inflate costs, how a virtual wholesaler model can save millions on injectables and specialty meds, and what happens when leadership manages silos instead of the whole enterprise.Then we get tactical. Imagine a standardized claim process across payers and a new financing model that replaces premium fights with unlimited HSAs plus government-backed medical loans pegged to Medicare rates. Pair that with direct contracts that pay providers quickly, no prior auth, no denials, and zero out-of-pocket for employees using posted agreements. Add agentic AI to audit thousands of contracts, verify invoices, and stop leakage dimes at a time—and a clearer path emerges: fewer middlemen, faster pay, better outcomes. Along the way, we confront uncomfortable truths about facility fees, subprime patient financing, and why breaking up insurance conglomerates or forcing divestiture of non-insurance assets could restore real competition.If you care about practical reform—transparent pricing, direct contracting, real outcomes data, and technology that kills waste—this is your playbook. Listen, share with a colleague who manages benefits or a hospital P&L, and tell us: where should transparency and direct contracts start in your market?

Shannon Burkett has lived about six lives. Broadway actor. SNL alum. Nurse. Filmmaker. Advocate. Cancer survivor. And the kind of person who makes you question what you've done with your day. She wrote and produced My Vagina—the stop-motion musical kind, not the cry-for-help kind—and built a global movement after her son was poisoned by lead dust in their New York apartment. Out of that came LEAD: How This Story Ends Is Up to Us, a documentary born from rage, science, and maternal defiance. We talked about everything from The Goonies to Patrick Stewart to the quiet rage of parenting in a country that treats public health like a hobby.

OpenAI's launch of ChatGPT Health is reigniting a familiar debate about patient‑facing AI — how much it can empower people to access medical information, and how much it might amplify misinformation, anxiety, or privacy risks. ChatGPT Health allows users to securely enter personal health information and use ChatGPT's AI to better understand and manage their health concerns. Physicians note, however, that its impact on care will depend heavily on guardrails around accuracy, transparency, and how patients use the tool between visits. In this episode, Terry breaks down the pros and cons of AI in healthcare and highlights what providers should be cautious about as these tools become more common.

Send us a textHealthcare is entering its most consequential design moment in decades.As AI moves from the background into the core of clinical decision-making, diagnostics, and patient experience, the real question isn't what AI can do—it's whether people can trust it.This week on FUTUREPROOF., I'm joined by Peter Skillman, Global Head of Design at Philips, and one of the few leaders shaping what responsible, human-centered AI looks like in healthcare at scale.Peter has spent three decades designing products and systems at the intersection of hardware, software, and services—across Palm, Nokia, Microsoft, AWS, and now Philips. Today, he's helping reimagine healthcare not as a hierarchy of authority, but as an experience built around patients, clinicians, and trust.We talk about:Why AI in healthcare must be designed with people, not just for themWhat happens when teenagers—future patients and clinicians—help design care systemsHow healthcare design is shifting from “what looks impressive” to “what feels humane”Why speed, clarity, and emotional context now matter as much as clinical accuracyThe long timelines of healthcare innovation—and why today's design choices shape the next decadeWhat it really means to make AI visible, explainable, and trustworthy in life-and-death environmentsThis conversation isn't about futuristic demos or abstract ethics. It's about how design decisions today will determine whether AI improves healthcare—or quietly erodes trust in it.

FROM SURVIVAL TO QUALITY OF LIFE: WHY OUTCOMES ARE BEING REDEFINED THE FUNDAMENTAL SHIFT IN MEDICINE For decades, medicine measured success through a singular lens: survival. Did the patient live? Did the procedure work? While these metrics remain important, healthcare is undergoing a profound transformation that redefines what "winning" actually means[1]. The new standard is no longer just extending life—it's enabling patients to live purposefully, functionally, and with dignity[2]. This shift reflects a critical insight: surviving is not the same as living well. WHY OUTCOMES ARE BEING REDEFINED Beyond Binary Success Traditional outcome metrics operated in black-and-white terms. A femur repair was "successful" if the fracture healed—regardless of whether the patient could walk without pain, climb stairs, or return to work[3]. Today, healthcare systems recognize this approach as incomplete and outdated. Patient-Reported Outcomes Measures (PROMs) The healthcare industry is now systematically integrating patient voices into outcome measurement. These tools capture what patients actually experience: physical functioning, emotional well-being, social participation, and overall quality of life[4]. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has formally incorporated patient-reported outcome measures into quality reporting frameworks, signaling a structural shift in how healthcare success is defined[5]. The Quintuple Aim Modern healthcare reform is reframing success across five dimensions[6]: ·      Patient Experience: Tailored treatments based on individual data and preferences ·      Population Health: Proactive, preventative care delivery ·      Cost Reduction: Connecting patients to appropriate care and reducing avoidable hospitalizations ·      Provider Well-Being: Extending clinical reach through technology and team-based care ·      Equitable Care: Ensuring access regardless of geography or circumstance WHAT THIS MEANS IN PRACTICE Real-World Impact Advanced remote patient monitoring programs demonstrate the difference this redefinition makes. One program achieved a 230% increase in guideline-directed medical therapy for heart failure patients, adding an average of 5 years to their lives—but the metric that matters most is that patients remained home, maintained independence, and preserved quality of life while achieving better clinical outcomes[7]. Shared Decision-Making Patient preferences now matter. Research shows patients are generally unwilling to accept diminished quality of life simply for extended survival[8]. Healthcare providers increasingly recognize that authentic patient partnership—understanding what matters most to each individual—leads to better adherence, satisfaction, and actual outcomes. THE BOTTOM LINE The redefinition of medical success from "Did you survive?" to "Are you living well?" represents a maturation of healthcare. It acknowledges that modern medicine can often extend life—the question now is how to ensure that extended life is worth living. This shift places patient values, functional abilities, and personal purpose at the center of clinical decision-making. Success in 21st-century medicine means helping patients achieve not just survival, but flourishing. REFERENCES [1] Takeda Oncology. (2025).

Send us a textHealthcare fraud and corruption are not limited to one type of country or healthcare system. It exists in low income, middle income, and wealthy nations alike. What differs is how it shows up, how visible it is, and who ends up paying the price.In this episode of Causes or Cures, Dr. Eeks speaks with Professor Graham Brooks, an international expert on healthcare corruption and criminal justice, about how fraud and corruption operate across healthcare systems worldwide. Rather than treating corruption as a problem of “elsewhere,” this conversation focuses on the shared vulnerabilities that allow it to persist in both resource limited settings and highly regulated, well funded systems, like the US. We discuss:What healthcare corruption looks like in low and middle income countries compared with wealthy countries, and why both are vulnerable in different waysReal world examples of healthcare corruption that illustrate how these schemes operate across contextsWho ultimately pays for corruption, including taxpayers, patients, and people at the pharmacy counter, regardless of national income levelHow much money is lost globally to healthcare fraud and corruption, and why those estimates almost certainly underestimate the true costWhy healthcare systems filled with trained professionals, regulations, and oversight remain surprisingly easy to exploitHow conflicts of interest and financial incentives can quietly shape care, guidelines, and clinical decisions across countriesWhere major corruption schemes tend to concentrate today, from billing and procurement to referrals and pricing practicesWhether data and AI can help detect corruption earlier without turning healthcare into a surveillance systemWhat patients and clinicians can realistically do to reduce their risk of exploitationAbout the GuestProfessor Graham Brooks is an international expert on corruption in healthcare and criminal justice. He has advised governments, law enforcement bodies, and international organizations on counter fraud and anti corruption efforts, and has been a keynote speaker at major conferences across Europe.He has participated in United Kingdom Cabinet Office round table discussions on anti corruption, worked with the Royal United Services Institute on money laundering and online business risks, and currently serves as a member of the Group of Experts for the European Healthcare Fraud and Corruption Network.Professor Brooks has published extensively with international collaborators and is the author of Healthcare Corruption: Causes, Costs, Consequences and Criminal Justice.Work with me?

It has been said that we don't have “big data” in healthcare, but instead a large amount of “small data.”In this episode, Halle speaks with Kyle Armbrester, CEO of Datavant and former CEO of Signify Health (acquired for $8B), about why healthcare data still moves the way it did decades ago and what it will take to modernize it at scale.

How do we go about accessing dental healthcare during a cost of living crisis? 

In a major blow to American healthcare, Congress has let the ACA subsidies expire. This means higher premiums and, as a result, fewer Americans enrolling. We are joined by Wendell Potter, former VP of Corporate Communications for Cigna turned whistleblower and healthcare reform advocate. Since 2009, Wendell has pulled back the curtain on how insurance giants game the system to prioritize profits over patients.Wendell shares the two stories demonstrating the inhumanity of the American healthcare system that pushed him to speak out. He also talks about the impact of the expiring subsidies and why it could be what he calls a "death spiral." But don't worry! Donald Trump has a plan... or at least concepts of a plan.Al and Wendell talk about the accomplishments of the ACA, while also acknowledging that Democrats should have done more to strengthen it during the Biden administration. Now with Trump and the Republicans in charge, any chance at meaningful reform is out the window.Plus, we revisit the December 2024 murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson and why that struck a nerve with so many Americans.READ Wendell's substack, HEALTH CARE un-covered: https://healthcareuncovered.substack.com/SUPPORT THE SHOW BY VISITING OUR SPONSORA smarter way to handle your shipping needs!

In this episode of the Eye on AI Podcast, Craig Smith sits down with Steve Brown, founder of CureWise, to explore how agentic AI is reshaping healthcare from the patient's perspective. Steve shares the deeply personal story behind CureWise, born out of his own experience with a rare cancer diagnosis that was repeatedly missed by traditional medical pathways. The conversation dives into why modern healthcare struggles with complex, edge-case conditions, how fragmented medical data and time-constrained systems fail patients, and where AI can meaningfully help without replacing clinicians. The discussion goes deep into multi-agent AI systems, reliability through consensus, large context windows, and how AI can surface better questions rather than premature answers. Steve explains why patient education is the real unlock for better outcomes, how precision medicine depends on individualized data and genetics, and why empowering patients leads to stronger collaboration with doctors. This episode offers a grounded, practical look at AI's role in healthcare, not as a diagnostic shortcut, but as a tool for clarity, context, and better decision-making in some of the most critical moments of car   Stay Updated: Craig Smith on X: https://x.com/craigssEye on A.I. on X: https://x.com/EyeOn_AI (00:00) Using Multi-Agent AI to Analyze Medical Records (04:35) Steve Brown's Tech Background and Return to Healthcare (08:25) How a Rare Cancer Diagnosis Was Initially Missed (13:55) Why Modern Medicine Struggles With Complex Cases (18:29) Multi-Agent Consensus and AI Reliability in Healthcare (24:12) Large Context Windows, RAG, and Medical Data Organization (28:24) Why CureWise Focuses on Patient Education, Not Diagnosis (33:10) Precision Medicine, Genetics, and Personalized Treatment (47:45) Why CureWise Launches Direct-to-Patient First (53:19) The Future of AI-Driven Precision Medicine

Together, they explore why executives needed a new kind of platform, what problems they're trying to solve when they come to ViVE, and how topics like cybersecurity, cost pressure, operational performance, and real-world AI will show up in this year's programming.
