The Grand Roundup: Doximity's AI comeback, Bank of America's $250M GLP-1 bet, Clover and Oscar's blowout quarters, HCMC's $705M bailout, and more

Episode Description

Kevin and Martin dig into a busy week of Q2 earnings, starting with Doximity's whiplash quarter. From there they run through then payer calls: Oscar and Clover both grew close to 50% while improving MLR. They discuss Oscar's Oswell radiology agent and Clover's Counterpart licensing play, Hinge Health's investor day excitement and Cylinder acquisition, and Bank of America's $250 million GLP-1 spend.

They close on Minneapolis' HCMC bailout, a Denver hospital antitrust standoff, and the current "value-based care is back" moment powered by Vytalize, Agilon, and a wave of new AI-enabled ACO enablers — before previewing Hims' earnings as a bellwether for consumer healthcare affordability.
