Technology can build health journeys centered on consumers. In this episode, Jaime Murillo, Senior VP and Chief CardioMetabolic Health Officer at Optum Labs talk about responsibly leveraging technology like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and big data to enhance healthcare for everyone in an affordable, engaging, effective, and equitable way. Jaime explains how to improve communication within healthcare with the help of extended care teams, attending to consumers' needs after they’ve left their provider’s office and thus putting an end to episodic care. He discusses the transition that needs to happen in the industry toward a consumer-centric approach and transfer that care outside the brick-and-mortar sites. He also explains why UnitedHealth Group wants to build systems that will identify gaps in care without losing the human touch within journeys. Tune in to learn how Dr. Murillo uses technology to humanize and bring healthcare to the consumer!
