Have you been told your AMH is low, your eggs are too old, or you're “running out of time”? Egg quality is one of the most misunderstood pieces of the fertility puzzle.

You shouldn't need a PhD in insurance billing to understand why your medication costs $600 this month and $60 the next. But for millions of Americans, that's the reality.In this episode of Heartline: Changemaking in Healthcare, I talk to pharmacist and startup founder Vinay Patel, whose decade-long career spans high-volume pharmacy operations, clinical program design, and now, drug pricing reform.Vinay's origin story begins with a moral injury: watching patients forced to choose between rent and medications. Instead of accepting the system as-is, he built one that works better. From negotiating fair reimbursement rates to empowering local pharmacies and cutting out predatory Pharmacy Benefit Managers (PBMs), his work is restoring agency—one prescription at a time.You'll hear how he:Turned failure and scarcity into a superpower as a founderBuilt a mission-driven team by prioritizing soft skills over perfect résumésDesigned cost-plus drug programs that serve patients firstProtects independent pharmacies while keeping GLP-1s accessible About the Guest:"Failure means you're learning. And in healthcare innovation, learning fast is everything.” – Vinay PatelVinay Patel is a pharmacist, entrepreneur, and healthcare reformer. After years running a home delivery pharmacy for 15,000+ patients a month, he founded MakoRx, a company that bypasses traditional pharmacy benefit managers to lower costs for employers and improve access for patients.Vinay's mission is deeply personal—and systemic. His company's cost-plus model strengthens local pharmacies, bypasses industry bloat, and brings transparency to one of healthcare's most broken sectors.
