Boosting Patient Understanding and Follow Through - Dr. Shiv Rao, Co-Founder & CEO of Abridge - a podcast by Osmosis.org

Think about the implications of this: research indicates people forget up to 85% of what doctors tell them during an appointment. Imagine how health might improve if patients remembered and understood all of those crucial conversations? Well, Dr. Shiv Rao and his colleagues at Abridge have created a solution that doesn’t require reliance on memory. Their app makes it easy for patients to record the conversation on the spot, provides a transcription, and layers education on top of it to enhance understanding and follow-through. The company is also looking at how this information can provide a source of feedback to clinicians to improve the quality of their patient interactions. Check out this fascinating episode of Raise the Line with host Shiv Gaglani to learn about Abridge’s privacy-first approach, the importance of patients controlling their own medical data and why start-up companies are like ICU patients.
