What do we mean by health? Is it the absence of disease? If you're not sick, then one could argue you're healthy. But is that looking at the glass half empty, rather than full?

In this episode we welcome back Andy Wilkins of Vision4Health, one of our most popular guests, to discuss the fragmented health ecosystem from multiple perspectives and continue our discussion on building a human-centered health ecosystem.
