Ep #2 | What’s Broken in American Healthcare and What the Future Holds with Ayush Mishra Ft. Dr. Marschall S. Runge

Ayush Mishra Season 1 Episode 2

America spends more on healthcare than any country on Earth, so why are they ranked 60th in healthy life expectancy?

In this eye-opening episode, Ayush Mishra sits down with Dr. Marschall Runge, cardiologist, researcher, long-time CEO of Michigan Medicine, and author of The Great Healthcare Disruption, to unpack one of the biggest paradoxes in modern medicine.

From the rise of chronic disease and the collapse of preventive care to the shocking inefficiencies buried inside the U.S. healthcare system, Dr. Runge breaks down what’s really driving America's poor outcomes and why critical care is world-class while the rest of healthcare continues to fall behind.

But this conversation isn’t doom and gloom. 
We dig into where AI is already transforming care, how predictive analytics will rewrite diagnosis and treatment, why smartwatches are saving more lives than ever, and why Big Tech (Amazon, Google) and pharma giants (like Eli Lilly) are redefining the future of medicine.

You’ll also hear:

  • Why academic medical centers must evolve or risk irrelevance
  • How AI assistants will revolutionize chronic disease management
  • Why preventive care is the REAL magic button to fix healthcare
  • The danger zones of AI and what must never be automated
  • Whether AI will reduce or widen the affordability gap


If you want clarity on where American healthcare is headed and why the next decade will reshape medicine more than the last 100 years this episode is unmissable.

Watch till the end. Your understanding of healthcare will change.
