Can AI Replace Primary Care?

In this episode of The Venture Capital Podcast , we sit down with Dr. Muthu Alagappan, CEO & Co-Founder of Council Health, and Rob Biederman, Managing Partner at Asymmetric Capital Partners, to explore how AI is reshaping healthcare delivery. We unpack the idea of “care at the cost of compute”, why primary care is fundamentally broken, and how AI-native, physician-supervised models could dramatically expand clinical supply without sacrificing safety. You’ll hear a candid discussion on: Why healthcare has massive supply–demand gaps AI hallucinations and why off-the-shelf models aren’t safe for medical advice How Council combines medical AI with real doctors in the same workflow Whether AI will replace primary care doctors or act as a co-pilot The role of data, prevention, and personalized care in the future of medicine A grounded, real-world look at where AI actually works in healthcare — and where it shouldn’t.
