What drives a person to commit an unimaginable act? With the shocking and tragic murder of UnitedHealthcare's CEO dominating headlines, we shift the lens to probe deeper into the healthcare industry's brewing tensions. As AI reshapes denial management, we wonder: Is technology fueling discontent among healthcare professionals & the public? Did UnitedHealthcare's use of an AI claims evaluator, which denied 90% of claims without human intervention, drive us towards this contentious intersection of technology and patient care?

The conversation doesn't end there. We tackle the pressing issue of workplace violence that has gained momentum since the onset of the COVID pandemic, questioning its role in this incident. As AI continues to gain a foothold in healthcare, we ponder its impact on denial rates and the broader industry ramifications. Join us for a thoughtful exploration of these urgent topics and the future path of denial management in healthcare. This episode is a must-listen for those seeking to understand the shifting dynamics at play in today's healthcare landscape.

Join us for a compelling conversation with Jeremy Miller from Boost by Design, who lends his expertise on the evolving role of AI in marketing. Jeremy draws our attention to the crucial importance of integrating a human touch amidst the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT and Google’s AI-driven search capabilities. He provides a thoughtful perspective on the potential pitfalls of AI learning from AI—what he terms the "dark force problem"—which can result in content lacking in warmth and personal connection. With AI becoming an integral part of our marketing strategies, Jeremy emphasizes the need for human insight to bridge the gap between technology and authenticity, ensuring businesses maintain trust and relatability with their clients.

As we navigate the intersection of AI and healthcare marketing, Jeremy illustrates how AI can be a powerful tool for data collation and strategy development, provided that human experts play a central role in the process. He draws parallels between using AI in healthcare and marketing, advocating for AI as an aid rather than a replacement for human intuition and expertise. By 'filing off the edges,' or refining AI-generated content, businesses can ensure the messaging remains authentic and reliable. This episode is essential listening for those striving to harness AI's potential while safeguarding the irreplaceable value of the human element in digital marketing.
