Unlike previous types of AI, generative AI understands the totality of information on medical practice and can answer any question posed. Today it is not yet ready to provide diagnoses and treatment plans, but as it is doubling annually, it will be 32X more powerful in a mere five years. Used by patients and clinicians together, it can save hundreds of thousands of lives annually, make medical care affordable and reduce burnout. Now is the time to begin to use it so both the providers and recipients are ready when the next set of improvements becomes available.
Although nearly all manufacturers of GenAI technology caution against the use of generative AI to make diagnoses and design treatment plans, that hasn't stopped millions of Americans from doing so. This talk tells the true stories of patients who were able to make accurate diagnoses when they alluded to clinicians, physicians who avoided life-ending medical mistakes, and family members who prevented medical errors for loved ones in hospitals. It is a testimony to the power of the technology. The combination of a dedicated clinician, an empowered patient, and a generative AI tool will be able to do 10X better than any of the three alone today.
Today, the American healthcare system resembles a 19th-century cottage industry. It is fragmented, paid on a piecemeal (FFS) basis, uses technology from the last century, and has few leaders capable of implementing major change. The result is that the cost of healthcare in the U.S. is almost double all other nations in the world, with outcomes (life expectancy and maternal/infant mortality dramatically worse than in any of the other 12 industrialized nations. With costs rising double the rate of inflation, burnout a crisis, and chronic diseases exploding, change is inevitable. This talk describes the transformation that will happen and who is likely to lead it.
Covid-19 brought medical care out of hospitals and doctors' offices into the home. Patients wanted the convenience, privacy and lower cost of home testing and evaluation. The introduction of cotton swab screening for cervical cancer, single blood drop testing for syphilis, and generative AI's ability to take data from wearable devices and provide expertise to patients is changing that paradigm. This market is about to explode, and clinicians will need to adjust their practices in parallel, or they will be left behind.
These new GLP-1 medications have been shown to help patients shed 15 =-25% of their weight. But they have problematic side effects and huge price tags. This talk explains how they work, the advantages they provide, the complications they produce, and the financial implications of their use. It offers a view of how this class of drugs can address our chronic disease epidemic with patient safety and affordable costs. And it offers a pathway by which the United States can navigate this journey safely. With obesity now impacting over 40% of Americans all the time, but health insurers only covering a small patch of the landscape, payers, providers, and patients all need to be educated.
