Show Notes

In today's episode I have the priviliege of sitting down with Dr. Brad Youngren of 98point6. Dr. Youngren's life is a fascinating journey which takes us from the front lines of war to the front lines of technological innovation, and his knowledge, composure, and expertise reflect that diverse experience.

As a physician with nearly 20 years of experience—most recently as chief medical officer at Cue—Dr. Younggren joined 98point6 in 2017. He had previously held the position of chief medical officer for Mobisante and Shift Labs. Brad is also currently the medical director of emergency preparedness, trauma, and urgent care at EvergreenHealth, where he continues to practice emergency medicine. He previously served in Iraq as a physician with the United States Army and received the Bronze Star and Combat Medic Badge for his efforts. As the Chief Medical Officer & President of Care Innovation at 98point6, he brings his knowledge to bear on the dynamic problems involved in providing 24/7 text-based care to patients and providers around the country.

Today's conversation covers a lot of ground. Dr. Youngren and I had the chance to discuss everything from the military logistics of emergency medicine to the growth of digital healthcare technology. Make sure to stick around to the end, because we really get into the nuts of bolts of when and why digital healthcare is truly, inarguably better. The answers might surprise you.
