Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Out of Patients with Matthew Zachary
Matthew Zachary is the healthcare policy love child of Jon Stewart, Howard Stern, Thomas Paine, Ralph Nader, and Jerry Seinfeld. He has 19 years of receipts to prove it. Editorially independent. Answerable to no one. What started as The Stupid Cancer Show in 2007 became Out of Patients. The first online health podcast in America, predating the medium itself. Zachary survived brain cancer at 21, built the young adult cancer movement from scratch, and spent two decades channeling patient rage into something the system never saw coming. Now he is marching into Washington. Out of Patients goes where the comfortable shows will not. Politics. Healthcare policy. Economics. Institutional accountability. Consumer protection. The forces shaping what 330 million Americans can access, afford, and survive. Battle-scarred patients. Exhausted caregivers. Rare insiders brave enough to name what is killing us. And the occasional elected official about to find out what an organized patient constituency actually looks like. This is the show that started the conversation America is still not ready to finish.

Origins: The Dawn of Digital Health

Origins: The Dawn of Digital Health

On the show today, I am joined live in-studio by Alex Fair and Aaron Michael Buch, two innovators in the patient advocacy and digital health and innovation sector, each from different endpoints in time. Starting as early as 2008, Alex has had the good fortune to have worked on some genuinely pioneering initiatives in the early days of Health 2.0, including creating MedStartr and its many branches into crowdfunding, incubation, and acceleration of hundreds of startups. Aaron founded Patients.com in 2014 when digital health was emerging from its post-embryonic stages and has seen his all-in-one practice growth platform make healthcare suck less for thousands.
