Description
“I'm a tinkerer by nature,” says today's guest, Dr. Harsh Vathsangam. “Left to my own devices, I'll start opening up remotes and breaking apart bicycles.” That curiosity in how things work, combined with a knack for technology and drive to make a positive impact in people’s lives, led Vathsangam to focus his efforts on cardiac rehabilitation, a greatly underutilized treatment even though its effectiveness has been well-established for decades. In this engaging interview, find out how Movn -- the virtual cardiac rehabilitation solution created by his company, Moving Analytics -- creates an at-home experience geared toward making lifestyle changes that impact the whole individual. Tune in to hear how the company has overcome challenges of innovating within the healthcare space, and why he thinks there's potential to extend this model to high-risk patients. Plus, discover his advice for anyone looking to work in healthcare, including how empathy and knowing the business side of things can make you a better clinician.

Dr. Patrice Harris - President, American Medical Association: The Coronavirus crisis has presented unprecedented challenges for physicians. Retired doctors are back in their white coats helping on the frontlines while medical students are being allowed to practice before graduation, and community physicians are struggling to hold on to their practices as people avoid getting routine care. Keeping a sharp eye on all of it is Dr. Patrice Harris, president of the American Medical Association. As you'll hear in this conversation with Dr. Rishi Desai, Harris is a forceful advocate for protecting the safety of her members, basing policy decisions on evidence and making sure we fully understand the disparate impact COVID-19 is having based on race. And as a child psychiatrist, she also drops some wisdom for parents on how to talk to their kids about these unsettling times. by Raise the Line
