We discussed the Hello Health concept, the role of patients and physicians in the tech-enabled era, then ended up on a discussion of traditional health insurance and its (lack of) fit with Hello.In Part II, we discuss the patient centered medical home, coordination of care, health care reform, and the Hello Health business model.The transcript is available here.
