In this episode of MasterMined, hosts Mark Scrivner and Jeff Skillen sit down with Dr. Tom Milam, Chief Medical Officer of Iris Telehealth, to explore how healthcare systems can rethink behavioral health delivery. Drawing from decades of clinical, academic, and leadership experience, Dr. Milam shares how telepsychiatry can expand access to underserved populations, why healthcare must move beyond \"encounter-based\" care, and how AI could help patients and providers understand health patterns in ways never before possible. From rural access challenges to the promise of longitudinal patient data and relationship-centered medicine, this conversation explores how behavioral health leaders can build systems that prioritize prevention, patient understanding, and meaningful care.
