S1E10: AI in Patient Communication and Experience, with Justin Schrager, MD, Co-founder and Chief Medical Officer of Vital On this episode, host Dr. Heather Bassett welcomes Dr. Justin Schrager, emergency medicine physician and co-founder of Vital, discussing the gap that inspired his company: patients navigating complex healthcare settings with little context, clarity, or communication. Justin explains how Vital evolved from operational AI in emergency departments to patient-facing technology that helps people understand wait times, procedures, and even their own radiology reports — in plain language. Justin and Heather explore how early adoption of generative AI enabled Vital to translate complex clinical data into information patients can actually use, backed by published research on safety and quality. Justin reveals why physician involvement in AI development is non-negotiable, how patients are already turning to tools like ChatGPT to interpret their care in real time, and what the AI Care Standard initiative aims to do about it.

How To Revitalize Your Brand Brand is one of those words that can clear a room in a B2B company faster than almost anything else. The moment you say it, someone in the C-suite starts thinking about pipeline, not long-term equity. I know that instinct well.

It is what makes everything else in your marketing work harder, and how to make your brand an even stronger asset.

What Does Your AI Know? The Governance Framework for AI-Powered Pipeline Growth On this episode host Adam Turinas continues his series on using AI to grow your pipeline. In this episode, He is taking a deep dive into a topic that many marketers mistakenly treat as a boring compliance chore: governance and learning. In the high-stakes world of healthcare technology, where trust is our primary currency and sales cycles are long and fragile, governance is not just about risk management. It is a foundational pillar that can actually improve the quality of your marketing and provide a genuine competitive advantage. I share my own experiences from building the HLP Brain at Health Launchpad, including the surprising lesson that governing for substance rather than style leads to more credible and persuasive content.

The Insurance Maze: Patient Autonomy in a Profit-Driven System On Part 2 of their conversation with Matthew Zachary, founder of Stupid Cancer and host of Out of Patients, they move from personal narrative to civic strategy. Zachary reflects on the upcoming launch of his book We The Patients, a manifesto and call to organize Americans affected by serious illness into a unified, nonviolent, bipartisan voter bloc focused on patient rights and consumer protections. The discussion explores the structural tension between mission and margin in American healthcare, the lived experience of navigating insurance coverage before and after the Affordable Care Act, and the economic reality of medical debt and bankruptcy. Zachary argues that while reform efforts have targeted access and research, they have largely avoided confronting the power dynamics embedded in insurance design and coverage practices. They also examine transparency in pricing, the persistence of administrative friction, and the question of whether civic organization - not market disruption alone - may be the missing force in meaningful healthcare reform. This episode is both reflection and roadmap.

Through immersive cultural programming, farm-to-table partnerships, and a dedicated team who speak the languages and share the lived experiences of their community, we show how addressing food insecurity is deeply tied to combating social isolation, honoring elders, and fostering meaningful cross-cultural relationships.
