When Chris Jones lost his son due to delays in accessing critical medical records, everything changed. In this powerful conversation, he shares how that life-altering moment led him to create Match Rite Care, a platform designed to unify fragmented healthcare records and protect patients from falling through the cracks. We talk about the cultural mistrust in healthcare systems, the deep disparities in access between rural and urban communities, and why your medical data should never be a barrier to care. Chris opens up about grief, legacy, and what it means to build technology with heart. This is more than a founder story, it’s a blueprint for how personal loss can become purposeful innovation. 👉 Learn more about Match Rite Care: https://www.matchritecare.com [https://www.matchritecare.com]👉 Explore his second venture, Rite Care Data: https://www.ritecaredata.tech [https://www.ritecaredata.tech] 🎙️ Hosted by Abraham Sisay | foorum Nexus Show
