Relocalizing Health with Dave Chase
While Washington argues and Wall Street profits, a quiet transformation is reshaping healthcare: one community at a time.
Relocalizing Health takes you inside this movement with Dave Chase, founder of Health Rosetta, as he talks with the people leading healthcare's ground-up transformation. Their approach? Keep care local, rebuild trust, and redirect healthcare wasted spending into something that actually serves people.
You'll hear real-world stories from employers, clinicians, and civic leaders who are designing health plans and ecosystems that work, and strengthening their local economies in the process.

- Public sector leaders who've redesigned employee health benefits to free up millions for essential services.
- Physicians who've left corporate systems to practice relationship-based care.
- Manufacturing executives using healthcare as a competitive advantage - not a cost burden.
- Civic leaders helping communities reclaim control of their healthcare destiny.
If you care about your community's future and want to see what's actually working in healthcare transformation, this show offers a clear-eyed look at proven models and how to implement them.

AI and the Future of Healthcare: Balancing Technology with Human Connection
Welcome back to another episode of Relocalizing Health! Today, host Dave Chase dives deep into the opportunities and challenges AI brings to healthcare, joined by digital health pioneer Dr. Jay Parkinson. Together, they explore a future where technology and community-driven care intersect, asking the big questions about how AI can support, rather than replace, the vital human relationships at the core of medicine.
Jay shares stories from his unique journey, from being one of the first iPhone-enabled physicians making house calls, to innovating virtual primary care with Sherpa, and now leading Automate Clinic, where he’s working to train AI models to think more like doctors. As they sift through possibilities and pitfalls, Dave and Jay unpack what truly makes care excellent, which elements must remain human, and how AI might transform both the daily experiences of clinicians and the health journeys of patients.
They also tackle AI’s role in addressing the broader determinants of health, beyond pills and procedures, into the realms of social connection and community resources. With insights for both clinicians embracing change and everyday people eager to understand what’s ahead, this episode is a candid, forward-thinking look at the evolution of healthcare.
So, whether you’re a healthcare professional, policymaker, or simply curious about the future of medicine, this conversation is designed to spark curiosity, challenge assumptions, and inspire the kind of creative thinking that just might change the system for the better. Let’s get started.
