About this episode

These articles bug me. Disgruntled employees talking about what is wrong with the company they work for or have left. But alas, they give us some insight as to what is going on within Apple's Health division.

It's the usual stuff. Lack of a cohesive vision, pressure for results, and keeping complainers from meetings. Nothing to see here.

What we can see here is that Apple's success in other areas are leading the expectations of the world as to what they can do in healthcare. Today we explore what Apple can do in healthcare if they only remember what they are and who they serve.
