Oura Ring Is So Much More Than a Sleep Lab (#355)

It's a jam-packed conversation with the Oura team! Holly Shelton, Chief Product Officer, and Jason Oberfest, VP of Health Partnerships, dive into the design process behind the Oura Ring’s newest heart health features. By the time you finish hearing from Holly and Jason, you’ll have a whole new sense of what’s possible with next-generation wearables and health data.  All that, plus the Flava of the Week about the FDA authorizing Apple’s Hearing Aid Feature as the first over-the-counter hearing aid software device. Now that AirPods Pro can assist in treating a common ailment for millions of people, how should we keep their announcement in mind as we design and build consumer-centered services?  This show is produced by Shift Forward Health, the consumer advisory firm that helps providers operationalize consumer-centered healthcare services.
