In this episode of the AI Agents Podcast, we explore how artificial intelligence is revolutionizing healthcare follow-ups with RJ Burnham, CEO of Consig.

RJ shares his mission to eliminate inefficient manual outreach workflows by embedding AI-driven voice technology directly into existing healthcare systems.

By automating the initial stages of patient communication—such as post-discharge check-ins and follow-up calls—Consig is helping providers drastically improve operational efficiency and patient outcomes without adding more tools to already overloaded staff.

RJ dives into real-world scenarios where AI-generated conversations have led to meaningful impacts, from reducing hospital readmissions to increasing staff retention.

With a firm focus on compliance, data integration, and supporting—not replacing—healthcare workers, RJ reveals how AI can scale care and build better patient-provider relationships.

Whether you’re in healthcare tech or just curious about the future of digital care, this episode highlights the powerful role AI can play in reshaping communication in one of the world’s most vital industries.
