This podcast, brought to you by AMS Healthcare, explores the convergence of technology and compassion in healthcare today. Good Tech, Compassionate Healthcare will host conversations between leading researchers, scientists and healthcare providers, as well as patients and caregivers, as they confront the challenges threatening our healthcare system, especially in the face of the pandemic. Join us as they discuss the opportunities for digital health to innovate all aspects of our healthcare today, and tomorrow. They will share their hope for technology, and they will share some cautionary tales about what they are seeing in the field. We hope to foster open and frank discussions about how they think we should integrate technology into the health-care system in a way that enhances – and doesn’t diminish – compassionate care. Because ultimately, we want these discussions to help us all advance the cause of better healthcare for patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers everywhere. If there was ever a time to uphold compassion as the bedrock and guiding principle of healthcare, it’s now! Join us for these illuminating conversations as AMS Healthcare explores “Good Tech, Compassionate Healthcare.
