At first glance, the use of AI tools and the goal of delivering increasingly person-focused healthcare might seem at odds, and that might be true except for the fact that treating patients has become incredibly complicated.

In this episode, we meet Dr. Alexandra T. Greenhill, Founder, CEO, and Chief Medical Officer of Careteam Technologies to explore how she navigates the complexities of AI in healthcare, bridging the gap between what is possible and what's happening.
