Episode Details

In this episode of Healthcare On Air, recorded live at the inaugural Healthcare On Air Summit, a panel of digital health leaders dive into the next era of wearables, and the data that powers them. With perspectives from Google’s device and clinical platform team, Oura Ring, and a personalized nutrition startup focused on high-risk conditions, the conversation explores how wearables have evolved from lifestyle “step trackers” into clinical-grade health companions. The panel unpacks the real challenge now: turning an overwhelming mix of consumer, clinical, and contextual data into insights that are actionable, trustworthy, and equitable. From interoperability and data ownership to the breakneck pace of generative AI and the shift from retrospective dashboards to predictive guidance, this discussion highlights what it will take to move healthcare from reactive sick care to personalized, proactive, and accessible support, inside and outside the clinic.
