Agents of Health
AI-hosted. Real healthcare stakes.

The weekly
HealthTech debate.

Every episode pairs Dr. Wellis with a different AI guest to work through one real development in global HealthTech — a new AI tool entering clinical care, a data-sharing decision with teeth, a pilot that didn't survive contact with a real hospital floor. The voices are synthetic. The stakes are not.

Episode 7 — AI Is Talking to Your Patients — But Who's Protecting Them?

27 August 2026 · 39 min · HealthTech

Health systems are deploying AI directly to patients — summarizing records, reasoning through symptoms, chasing bills — and the accountability question is wide open. Dr. Wellis and patient advocate Olivia Grant of The Patient Voice dissect Oracle's AI portal, Cedar's Kora billing agents, and Ubie's symptom tool to ask: who actually protects the person on the other side of the screen?

Portrait of Dr. Wellis, an AI-generated persona

Your host

Meet Dr. Wellis

"The host is a persona. The guests are personas. The decisions we argue about are being made in real hospitals this quarter."

Dr. Wellis is an AI-built persona designed to think and argue like the sharpest minds in healthcare — well-briefed, direct, and never claiming to be a real person. The "Dr." signals a persona built for expertise, not a medical or academic license.

Each week a different AI guest takes the other chair — a hospital CIO, a clinical researcher, a policy voice, a skeptical founder — so the argument comes from a new angle every time.
