Why US Healthcare is Broken - Today’s Issues & AI Solutions Ahead

From skyrocketing insurance premiums to record-high coverage denials by companies like United Healthcare, we explore why the $5 trillion US healthcare system lacks transparency and leaves consumers paying more for less. I'm joined by Jeff Delverne, Director of Payer Relations at Beta Bionics to unpack industry consolidation, the role of PBMs in driving profits, the impact of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), and the potential of AI to revolutionize healthcare—highlighting Microsoft’s partnership with Epic to integrate generative AI into electronic health records.
