Where do Patient Experience & Consumer Centricity Intersect? (#511)

Where do Patient Experience & Consumer Centricity Intersect? (#511)

Author: Healthcare Rap Media June 23, 2026 Duration: 26:01

Jared and Adam Cherrington started cooking up the idea for this episode while sitting in the back of a shuttle bus at Swaay.Health Live. The two discuss how to keep the voice of the patient a priority, where patient experience and consumer centricity overlap, and what they’re both seeing in these areas that give them hope … and frustration. 

All that, plus the Flava of the Week about whole-body scans. How do they work, who are the main players, and what’s their true value in a consumer’s constellation of care?
