What happens when digital innovation meets human-centered care?

In this episode of The Exam Room Podcast, Dr. Rhiannon Winsor sits down with Dr. Ami Bhatt — cardiologist and Chief Innovation Officer at the American College of Cardiology — to explore the evolving role of digital health and what it means for patients and providers alike.

Dr. Bhatt shares her journey from caring for adults with congenital heart disease to becoming an early adopter of telemedicine long before the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated virtual care. Together, they discuss how technology can bring complex care into the communities where patients live, reduce barriers to access, and empower individuals to take ownership of their health.

The conversation also dives into the concept of "prescribing time" — reframing longevity around prevention, heart health, and everyday choices that support a longer, healthier life. From wearables and remote monitoring to patient education and continuous care, this episode highlights why the future of digital health isn't separate from health care — it is health care.

If you're interested in prevention, innovation, patient agency, and the future of cardiovascular care, this episode offers thoughtful insight and practical perspective.
