There are not enough nurses, doctors, and hours in the day to reach every patient who needs attention. The healthcare system was designed around scarcity, and that assumption has shaped everything from how care is prioritized to which patients get left behind.

Munjal Shah, Co-Founder and CEO of Hippocratic AI, joins host John Driscoll to discuss how an AI care management platform now logging nearly 280 million patient interactions is proving that the most powerful applications of clinical AI are the ones doing things health systems never thought to do in the first place, and why voice is the channel that actually changes patient behavior in a way text and apps never could.
