Consumer healthcare is entering a new phase where patients are no longer just looking for convenience. They are looking for affordability, transparency, and provider relationships that actually feel continuous and personalized.
In this episode, Dr. Myra Ahmad, CEO of Mochi Health, discusses how her company is building a comprehensive care platform that goes well beyond GLP-1s and weight management. She explains how Mochi combines providers, pharmacies, and software infrastructure in a marketplace model that gives patients more treatment visibility, supports tailored care plans, and expands access to affordable medications with or without insurance. Dr. Ahmad also shares why price transparency matters more than ever as more patients move into high-deductible plans, how operational efficiency and AI can help keep care affordable, and why the next chapter of telehealth will belong to solutions that reduce friction while preserving the provider-patient relationship.
Tune in and learn how consumer health platforms can make care more accessible, more transparent, and more aligned with what patients actually want.
