Yeah.
Maybe we pick some of the themes that you started off on the top with, including empowering patients, democratizing patient data, accelerating interoperability.
Maybe we pick also just next generation research.
I'll click through a few questions that hit some of the things that you said at the start.
Maybe first starting with the role of data, and you did have a conversation even five years back on this in a maybe different level of maturity, right?
But first, as you think about price transparency and giving patients greater access to clear and transparent data on the cost of services, how do you think that's going to play out in the way the system functions and with all of the friction inefficiencies that sit there today?
And you think about a patient's own healthcare data and them managing it and consuming it.
Many patients are doing this in the context of wearables and so on, at least in some subset of the market.
What could a leapfrog or a paradigm shift be in the context of patients owning their own healthcare data and medical records?
And how could that play out?
Interesting.
And it's funny, that actually is counterintuitive because many of these entities that are playing in this space are trying to open the tap and get you to sign up.
You're saying expanding protection ironically can make even their markets more efficient.
And by the way, I think the flip on the stick side is if there's a breach and so on, there needs to be real consequence management.
Maybe just to flip over to the next big theme you mentioned earlier, just on the opportunity for better interoperability of healthcare.
It correlates with the prior discussion.
But what's your overarching vision of what healthcare system and the system being defined broadly interoperability could actually unlock?
Clinical data, not just administrative, right?
especially with transparency and so on, where information is now more open, both in the payer and the provider side.
How do you see, frankly, what is a big point of friction on point of sale, transparency, and payments?
