AI won't win in healthcare unless clinicians—and patients—trust it.


In this episode, I sat down with healthcare innovation expert Linda Macomber, who’s been at the forefront of digital transformation for over 35 years, leading initiatives with Kaiser, IBM, and the VA. 


Her message is clear: your tech isn’t the hero—the human insight behind it is.


Learn What You’ll Discover:

🔹 Why AI is not a revolution—but a renaissance that blends human wisdom with digital intelligence

🔹 The biggest mistakes founders make when building in silos (and how to fix it)

🔹 What it really means to deliver personalized care and distributed access

🔹 How to rethink your solution as part of a broader care pathway—not just a point product

🔹 The one mindset shift every founder needs to go from “protocols” to people-powered innovation
