Points covered
Not all AI is the same. Generative AI will save hundreds of thousands of lives and reduce medical costs.
The combination of a dedicated clinician, empowered patient and GenAI will be incredibly more powerful than any of the three alone.
Chronic disease is overwhelming the American healthcare system leading to stagnant life-expectancy, higher costs and the epidemic of burnout.
Success will require that we shift payment in healthcare from "pay-for-volume" (FFS) to "pay-for value) (capitation). Doing so will require skilled clinician leadership and a different doctor-patient relationship.
