LinkedIn and YouTube Lead the Sources AI Answers Cite, Dispensed Builds a Campaign Around ‘This Is Not Medical Advice’, and Philips Puts Disney Inside Children’s MRI Scans – Week of 2 June 2026

Welcome to this week’s Digital Health Observer. The thread running through this edition is where health brands earn attention and authority now, from the sources AI answers actually cite to the screens and experiences patients meet in the real world. Meltwater’s analysis of AI-generated answers found LinkedIn sitting second only to YouTube as the most-cited source, with named experts and structured content outranking broad corporate pages, an Omnicom Health report is pushing pharma to rebuild patient-support programmes for the rising number of cancer patients aged 18 to 49, and Australian brand Dispensed has turned a regulated-category disclaimer into the creative hook for its first major campaign, ‘This Is Not Medical Advice’. Plus TerryWhite Chemmart doubling its in-pharmacy digital screen network from 200 to 400 stores, and Philips projecting Disney, Marvel and Star Wars characters inside children’s MRI suites to keep young patients calm. Here is what caught our attention.
