Why You Don’t Really Own Your Medical Records (And How The Healthcare System Failed This Founder's Son)

What if a broken healthcare system cost you the most important thing in your life? For Chris Jones, founder of MatchRite Care, that nightmare became a reality when his 5-year-old son, CJ, missed a life-saving clinical trial because of delayed medical records.

In this episode of The Disruption Lab, Chris shares how his personal tragedy fueled his mission to disrupt healthcare and put patients back in control of their own medical data. From his early career in tech to navigating the brutal realities of entrepreneurship, Chris opens up about the challenges of fighting industry red tape and what it really takes to drive innovation in a system designed to resist change.
