What if AI could give physicians back hours of their day, help them deliver better care, and restore the joy that brought them into medicine in the first place?
Calvin Carter, CEO of Matic and founder of Bottle Rocket, and Dr. Christopher Crow, CEO of Catalyst Health Group, reveal why primary care is reaching a breaking point, how administrative burden is driving physicians toward burnout and early retirement, and why they believe AI could fundamentally change the way doctors practice medicine.
Calvin is a lifelong technology entrepreneur who has spent decades building products and companies around one idea: identify friction, understand the people experiencing it, and use technology to create a better future.
Dr. Christopher Crow is a family physician, healthcare entrepreneur, and CEO of Catalyst Health Group who has spent much of his career developing better models for independent primary care.
They explain:
◼ Why physicians may spend nearly half their day on work unrelated to directly caring for patients
◼ Why decades of healthcare technology have often added friction instead of removing it
◼ How Matic is using AI to give physicians back time while improving patient care
◼ Why some physicians using Matic who were considering retirement have decided to keep practicing
◼ Why the future of primary care may depend on restoring physicians to what they do best: caring for people
