Today, we launch a 10-month series amplifying the Patient Voice while focusing on  designing and using new  technology. Each month, we will be interviewing a new patient advocate who personally and professionally knows the importance of developing technology to manage their health but the struggle to find a company who truly innovates for their end-user: the patient.  On this week's episode, Kerry Amato will speak to Brook McCall, Director of the Tech Access Initiative, for the United Spinal Association about the importance of involving the patient from the start in designing technology. Brooke will discuss her own personal journey as a patient, beginning with advocating for herself and how that evolved into a professional calling where she advocates for millions more each day.
