The Future of Chronic Diseases

Chase Spurlock and Julia Polk, the CEO and CSO at Decode Health paint the picture of how and why AI can impact healthcare like never before.

We look, on the chronic disease side, at three risk buckets—patients that are heading towards a diagnosis, patients that are misdiagnosed, and then patients that are about to experience an adverse event.

For Decode, one of the big datasets that we’ve amassed … is the social determinants of health, and being able to map those community levels of demographics, living conditions, access to food, access to transportation. Those features that are outside of the clinical narrative play a big piece in determining outcomes.
