How Remote Testing Can Change the Game for Patients and Clinicians: Interview with Katherine Ward of Healthy.io

I recently sat down with Katherine Ward, Chief Commercial Officer
and managing director for Healthy.io. She has worked in
healthcare for 28 years — including 15 years with the UK National
Health Service and 11 years with United Health Group where she
was the Chief Executive with United Health UK and Chief Growth
Officer with Optimum International. In this conversation, we
cover what Healthy.io does for the broader healthcare community,
lessons from the COVID-19 crisis, clinical-grade population
health technology, decentralized remote diagnostic screening, and
how their technology works with existing health systems.
