Grateful to Gregg Malkary for inviting me to join his podcast Beyond the Blueprint health+design broadcast to discuss the current landscape and prospects for health citizenship in the U.S. and globally, and implications for health economics, delivery, and retail health for self-care and the home as true medical home.
Jane brainstorms health citizenship and retail health with Gregg Malkary, Beyond the Blueprint
By Jane Sarasohn-Kahn on 22 May 2025 in
I'm once again pretty gobsmackingly happy to have been named a judge for the 2026 CES Innovation Awards, focusing on digital health, longevity, and fitness. Preceding every year's global conference, CES receives hundreds of applications from innovators around the world building tech-based solutions to big challenges. So glad to be part of this annual initiative to see what global health-tech pioneers are cooking up to address and scale the health and well-being of fellow health citizens, globally.
You can see the results of the Digital Health Awardees here on the #CES2026 website.
Stay tuned to Health Populi in early January as I'll be attending Media Days and meeting with innovators in digital health, longevity, and the home-for-health during CES 2026 in Las Vegas. I'll be at the conference for an entire week meeting with clients and exhibitors at the biggest-meeting-of-the-year on consumer-facing technology. I'll be reporting daily from Vegas here in the blog, sharing with you insights about the latest breakthroughs, products, and services that enable people to manage health, well-being, and medical issues in their own hands and homes.
Jane collaborated on Robin Strongin's Health Dame webcast to discuss Halle Tecco's new book, Massively Better Healthcare, due out in early 2026. We brainstormed with Maven Founder Kate Ryder and the company's Chief Medical Officer Dr. Neel Shah about the state of U.S. healthcare and solutions not just to tweak at the margins but to "massively" improve health care delivery, financing, outcomes, and equity in America. It was a delightful, enlightening conversation -- I hope you'll check it out.
