Claude for Healthcare vs ChatGPT Health: AI Giants Race to Transform Medicine

Anthropic announces Claude for Healthcare following OpenAI's ChatGPT Health reveal. Both AI giants are racing to transform how we build healthcare systems.

In this episode, we break down:

• Anthropic's constitutional AI principles adapted for medical contexts vs OpenAI's integration-first approach • Technical architecture: Claude's 200K token context, HIPAA logging, on-premise options; ChatGPT Health's SaaS model with EHR connectors • Constitutional Healthcare Modules for specialty-specific AI (cardiology, radiology, oncology) • Pricing comparison: OpenAI at $0.03/1K tokens vs Anthropic's $0.02 with $10K minimum • Why platform teams should build abstraction layers to avoid vendor lock-in • What to watch: FDA regulation, potential EHR vendor acquisitions, clinical outcomes data

Key takeaway: Build the infrastructure layer first with abstraction for provider flexibility, then integrate best-in-class models.
