What's the most effective strategy/approach you have seen that engages consumers for health wellness behavioral changes?
Gamification is the key to engagement. People like to see their scores increase, badges earned and in general, simple rewards for improving their health.

How is AI in health helping to improve the care experience?
Predictive analytics is what the game is all about. AI will improve a physician’s ability to accurately diagnose and treat many conditions.
