The U.S. spends more on healthcare than any other nation, yet ranks only in the 30s for patient outcomes. The system is set up to treat symptoms rather than prevent disease, says entrepreneur Sean Fetcho. After losing friends to prescription drug interactions and seeing the influence of Big Pharma firsthand, Sean became determined to disrupt the reactive healthcare model.

In this episode, Sean explains how the current "hot potato" system disincentivizes insurers from investing in preventive care, since patients frequently change providers. He discusses how his company, Versea Health, is ushering in the future of precision medicine—using cutting-edge diagnostic tests to create personalized treatment plans based on individual biomarkers. Sean also shares his vision for making proactive healthcare the standard through AI, wearable devices, and regular screenings.
