Author: Shift Forward Health March 17, 2026 Duration: 23:40

What will it take for ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot and others to adopt industry standards that preserve consumer safety? Aaron Patzer, Founder of Vital and Mint.com, dives deep into the need for a standard in patient-facing health AI, the effects of not having one, and his advice for consumers when using AI applications to answer health questions. 

All that, plus the Flava of the Week about Microsoft launching Copilot Health last week. How are Big Tech's investments in healthcare AI platforms changing the game for patients and providers, as well as showing us the need for guardrails and a shared understanding of how they work?
