AI Can Find the Signal. Healthcare Still Has to Act on It.
The opportunity for AI in healthcare is enormous. But we should judge implementations by more than model performance or the elegance of a generated answer. We should ask whether they expand or at least preserve human expertise, support safe use, fit into clinical workflows, or easily enable new ones, and close the loop between insight and action.

Clinical Communications with Providers: Why Your Messaging Infrastructure Is a Product Problem
For most health IT product and BD teams, clinical communications with providers is treated as a solved problem. It isn't. It's one of the most persistent, underestimated sources of integration failure, partner friction, and customer churn in the market — and the organizations that get it right build a durable competitive advantage.
Patient Navigation Is the Key to Improving Patient Outcomes: Here's What's Getting in the Way
Improving patient outcomes in specialty care doesn't start with better intentions. It starts with better visibility, clearer accountability, and structured pathways that make sure nothing — and no one — gets missed.
