The future of health care belongs to the next generation. From the Director of To Err Is Human: A Patient Safety Documentary (2018) comes a new documentary about the evolving role of technology in improving patient safety across medicine. Through expert interviews, real-world technology solutions, and one young innovator’s journey into the layered business of medicine, The Pitch showcases the immense effort required to break into the health care industry with new innovations and the importance of collaboration between those inside and out of the medical space. From immersive tech to AI machine learning, innovations are finally making waves in medicine with the goal of safer health care. The Pitch gives a unique look at the American health care system’s ongoing challenge to embrace the next generation of patient safety. Director Mike Eisenberg (To Err Is Human: A Patient Safety) stops by to talk about the sweeping changes around the ways in which our personal health care will be managed, massaged and implemented, as well as the ways health care professionals; doctors, nurses and therapists will have access to the kind of real-time information that may be the difference to life and death for their patients.

Director’s Statement: As the son of patient safety pioneer, the late Dr. John M. Eisenberg, this topic holds great meaning to me personally. Before he passed away in 2002, my father’s work in this field led to a national discussion on medical mistakes and he was the driving force behind federal efforts to improve patient safety. After directing To Err Is Human I have continued to speak publicly as an advocate for patient safety and the desire to see continued improvement has not wavered. Through this film, we hope to carry on his legacy by providing a productive look at how national efforts to improve the quality of care in America can continue to evolve.
