    Hippocratic promotes how it can undercut real human nurses, who can cost $90 an hour, with its cheap AI agents that offer medical advice to patients over video calls in real-time.

    Kind of.

        No, they cost $90/hour. They’re probably factoring in the assumed cost of benefits and management salaries.

        Oh, hell this is the healthcare industry. That’s probably just what they charge before insurance companies get their discounts.
