In this episode, we highlight two companies that leverage data from many different sources to create a more complete picture of a person’s health. The ultimate goal? Shifting away from the current model of “sick care” - where patients primarily see their doctors when they aren’t feeling well – to care models that prioritize long-term health and self-management with guidance from providers. These companies are helping lead the way to value-based care, from using AI to sift through patient-reported data and provide actionable insights, to integrating NCQA's HEDIS measurements into their data platform, thereby putting quality at the center of everything they do. Here, you’ll get a glimpse into the challenges and opportunities in our current data-rich health care ecosystem.

The episode begins with a conversation with leaders from Welldoc. Welldoc is a health tech company developing patient-facing apps to support self-management of chronic conditions. Using an omnichannel approach, their apps gather as much data as possible from sources including remote monitoring devices, like wearables, and clinical data.

Chief Analytics Officer, Dr. Anand Iyer, and Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Mansur Shomali, explain how Welldoc uses AI to parse the patient information, ultimately helping doctors and patients work together to construct an effective path to wellness.
