Embracing Compassion in Healthcare Technology: A Look at Uber Health and DUOS

In the latest episode of the Healthcare Rethink podcast, host Brian Urban discusses how technology and compassionate care can work together to improve healthcare. He talks with Caitlin Donovan from Uber Health and Karl Ulfers from DUOS, two tech-driven companies that are working to change the perception that technology lacks compassion in healthcare.

Donovan from Uber Health is optimizing supplemental benefits to drive better outcomes, while Ulfers from DUOS is focused on eliminating barriers for elder patients to access necessary healthcare services. They both highlight the importance of empathy and patient-centricity in healthcare technology.

Uber Health and DUOS are reshaping healthcare access and delivery by using technology to address the social determinants of health. They provide vital services such as transportation and nutritional support to create seamless connections between patients and the healthcare ecosystem.

At a time when healthcare technology can feel impersonal, Uber Health and DUOS are demonstrating that technology, when paired with compassion, can have a significant and sustainable impact. They are leading the way in creating a more inclusive and effective future for healthcare innovation.
