Michael chats with Dr. Ken Heinrich, Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer for Emergency Medicine at SCP Health. Together, they discuss innovations and technologies used on The Pitt in the award-winning show’s first two seasons, reflect on the pre-digital era in emergency medicine, how The Pitt portrays the use of AI in the hospital setting, what the show gets right about emergency care and where it perhaps stretches reality, characters Ken would take on his emergency department team, why the show has become such a cultural phenomenon, and much more.
