About this listen

Patient-centered design is not a nice-to-have in healthcare. It is the key to access, trust, and better outcomes. In this episode, Dr. Justin Coffey, Chief Medical Officer at WorkIt Health, discusses how designing treatment around lived experience can transform substance use care. He explains the philosophy of patients as designers, why immediate access matters in moments of readiness, and how whole-person care better reflects the realities of recovery. The conversation highlights how digital care can reduce stigma, improve engagement, and reach underserved populations, including rural patients and pregnant individuals. Dr. Coffey shares practical examples of how technology, team-based care, and thoughtful design remove barriers while maintaining human connection and explores the future role of AI in supporting care delivery and patient empowerment. Tune in and learn how patient-designed digital care can create more accessible, humane, and effective treatment. Resources: Connect with and follow Dr. Justin Coffey on LinkedIn.
