Tech Talk: Enhancing access and affordability in health care

Technology can bridge gaps in health care, resulting in enhanced access, lower costs and improved care quality.

June 6, 2025

At Optum, we’re deploying technology to streamline administrative work so care providers can spend more time with patients and less on paperwork. We’re closing gaps in care by focusing on primary care, wellness visits, preventive screenings, medication adherence programs and better management of chronic disease and mental health. We’re paying attention to the social determinants of health and promoting health literacy to ensure access to quality care well beyond the doctor’s office. All these factors can contribute to better experiences and improved health outcomes for those we are privileged to serve.  

In this episode of Tech Talk, Harish Gudi, Chief Information Officer, Optum India talks about how technology can improve health care and deliver a huge impact by expanding access, integrating care models and empowering patients with digital tools and virtual platforms.
