How do health systems move from adopting digital tools to building strategies that truly last?
In the final episode of this three-part Exam Room Podcast series, Dr. Rhiannon Winsor concludes her conversation with Dr. Ami Bhatt, cardiologist and Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology, by focusing on sustainability, access, and the future of patient-centered care.
Dr. Bhatt explains why successful digital health adoption depends on infrastructure, communication, and shared understanding — not just technology. From front-desk staff to clinicians and patients, everyone involved in the care journey must understand how and why new tools are being used. Without clear education and alignment, even the best technology can fail.
The discussion also explores value-based care, federally qualified health centers, and new payment models that make continuous, home-based care more feasible for rural and underserved communities. Dr. Bhatt emphasizes that digital strategies must respect the realities of patients’ lives — including transportation barriers, caregiving responsibilities, and work constraints — if they are to improve access and outcomes.
As the episode wraps, the conversation turns toward hope: a new generation of patients who expect partnership, transparency, and agency in their health care. Dr. Bhatt reflects on the power of long-term doctor–patient relationships and how digital tools, when designed thoughtfully, can remove noise and bring humanity back to the center of care.
This episode serves as a hopeful conclusion to the series — pointing toward a future where technology supports connection, empowerment, and better health for all.
