Former UnitedHealthcare CEO addresses AI 'battle of the bots' (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This is a preview of the September 17 edition of Access Health—Tap here to get this newsletter delivered straight to your inbox on Thursday mornings. Good morning. I'm wrapping up my stage notes for Newsweek's AI Health Summit next week and noticing a difference from digital-health-care-forums past. Most of my questions are not about what AI can do, but about what people can do. Who responds when an algorithm flags a deteriorating patient? What happens to a clinician's role when AI allows them t

But regardless of her training, outcomes and renown, there is one area where she will never be an expert. Even the most empathetic doctors can’t actually feel what their patients feel.
