Healthcare Uprising
This interview-based podcast focuses on how innovation in healthcare is showing up for the benefit of consumers, regular people, anyone who is seeking a way to be healthier and better manage their health. Finally healthcare is being designed "for the people".
We seek to shine a light on the movers, shakers, and innovators across the industry. This includes everything from the tech and digital-based startups providing care and services, to the academics and the medical researchers changing healthcare from inside our educational institutions, to the clinical, biomedical, and medical equipment organizations bringing innovation to our homes, phones and doctor’s offices. It gives a platform to those who are helping to change how healthcare is accessed, delivered, and experienced, for so many Americans.
And equally as important, to truly add the human side of healthcare to this podcast, we cover alot of human stories about real people and their experiences on their healthcare journeys.
Jeremy and Heather will cover some hot healthcare topics as they arise at the top of some of our pre-recorded episodes. Have an interesting topic or new consumer focused healthcare product, program or service you think we should cover? Let us know.
What's especially unique about this podcast is that you have a healthcare industry veteran coupled with your average Joe American to bring levity, authenticity, and a "real" human perspective to these conversations so they don't get too clinical, to in the weeds or complex that you have no idea what we're talking about.

In this episode, we explore the often overlooked issue of medication errors in pediatric care—especially for children with multiple or chronic conditions. These fragile patients face serious risks, and even minor prescription mistakes can have major consequences. With better medication management and expert support, we can create meaningful change for vulnerable children and their families. Like women’s health, pediatrics has long lacked focus in this area—but that’s starting to change.

In this episode, we dive into how value-based care is evolving to better support overextended providers caring for patients with chronic conditions—those who account for the highest costs despite being a small portion of the population. Technology like remote monitoring and app-based tracking is helping patients stay well and avoid ER visits. We also highlight how Welby takes a smarter approach by partnering directly with larger provider groups, delivering scalable support where it's needed most.

**SOAP notes are a structured method used by doctors to document patient encounters, consisting of four components: Subjective (patient's reported symptoms), Objective (measurable data), Assessment (diagnosis), and Plan (treatment strategy). This format enhances communication among healthcare providers and ensures accurate patient information is recorded.

You don’t often hear about disruption in the pharmacy space, but Mako Rx is changing that by tackling one of the industry’s most pressing issues: cost. In a first-world country, it’s alarming—and unacceptable—that people are skipping medications simply because they can’t afford them. Mako Rx’s partnership with Proactive MD represents a powerful path forward, enabling access to a larger patient population, which is essential for driving meaningful change in healthcare. After all, a small percentage of individuals typically account for the largest share of healthcare costs—addressing their needs efficiently could reshape the entire system.
