This week, @ChipKahn and @UCSFMedicine’s @Bob_Wachter discuss whether AI will produce a different kind of doctor in the future — a “clinician curator rather than a clinician-diagnostician.”

The answer could define the future of medicine and the doctor-patient relationship: https://t.co/EEfZPbnuEl

I interviewed John Halamka, President of the Mayo Clinic Platform, about whether AI is disruptive or just more incremental change.

Spoiler alert: His experiences show it’s disruptive, in a good way, for empowering providers and patients.

@Mr_Husky1 a polaroid is possible I suppose, but they were expensive and how likely?

[Chip Kahn @chipkahn]

How could the couple in that year have shown a picture of their interaction with the President 20 miles down the road? They would had to have the film from the camera developed and at that time there is no way that would have even been same day. I guess they could have had the developing instruments in their car trunk but that is unlikely. So does that bring into question the whole story?

The AI revolution is already here — but what does it mean for patients, clinicians, and health care industry leaders?

As of Jan 1, I’ve retired as CEO of FAH—but not from health policy. I’m simply shifting platforms, taking on new challenges, and finding new ways to make a difference. Starting Feb 25, I'll be contributing as a: 

➡️ Visiting Sr. Fellow @AEI 
➡️ Sr. Fellow @KFF (hosting a new podcast) 
➡️ Scholar @USCSchaeffer 
➡️ Helping launch a new institute @TulaneSPHTM 

Here’s to 2026: new ideas, more writing, & a podcast mic instead of policy memos. Stay tuned!

The health security of working families will be threatened if Congress fails to extend the health care tax credits before open enrollment on November 1. Premium notices are being sent, and Americans’ costs will go up if Congress does not act now.

➡️Time is of the essence: protect working families, keep costs down, and extend the health care tax credits.

Enhanced tax credits are the critical puzzle piece to keeping coverage affordable for millions of Americans.

On the latest Hospitals in Focus, I talk with @larry_levitt of @KFF about what’s at stake for working families if Congress fails to act.
