Closing The Info Gap: A New App That’s Empowering Patients And Caregivers

You are here: Home / Archive / Feature Stories / Closing The Info Gap: A New App That’s Empowering Patients And Caregivers
Published: August 29, 2026 by RHJ Producer

Patients routinely forget up to 80 percent of the information shared during a doctor’s appointment. Thankfully, a new app puts control directly back into the hands of patients by bridging this critical information gap and eliminating the stress of lost instructions. Our expert explores how empowering individuals with clear, accessible records of their care can transform the patient experience and relieve burnout for healthcare providers.

Guest Information:

  • Dr. Arpan Parikh, psychiatrist, CEO & co-founder, Kin Health

The real tipping point for Dr. Arpan Parikh was when his mother-in-law got diagnosed with breast cancer. Stepping into a care-giving role opened his eyes to just how broken this system had become.
