What if AI could have detected your patient's serious condition earlier than your current best practice protocols, potentially avoiding a complex intervention? For Ed Marx, this isn't hypothetical—he lived it.

This episode dives into the clinical realities of AI as a tool for early diagnosis, demonstrating how it's transforming the clinician-patient partnership and challenging providers to rethink workflows to keep pace with AI-empowered patients. Drawing from 20 years of digital transformation leadership and deeply personal healthcare experiences, Ed Marx shares powerful personal case studies of AI's success in diagnostics and overcoming access bottlenecks for specialized care. This episode provides a grounded analysis necessary to examine the immediate strategic implications for practitioners and the necessity for administrators to reorganize primary care delivery models.

The future of care requires collaboration—where clinicians leverage AI not as a replacement, but as a tool to enhance early detection, improve access, and extend their reach.
