Why AI Isn’t Curing Disease, Yet: Crossing Pharma’s Valley of Death with Physical Intelligence

Why AI Isn’t Curing Disease, Yet: Crossing Pharma’s Valley of Death with Physical Intelligence

We were told AI would cure disease in years. That’s a fallacy. Today, over 90% of clinical drug candidates still fail. It costs more than $2 billion and over a decade to bring a single drug to market. And now the industry faces a brutal paradox, which is the promise of exponential progress stuck inside a system governed by diminishing returns. This is pharma’s version of Eroom’s Law, i.e.  the inverse of Moore’s Law,  where the return on drug development declines as science

Smarter Medication Management: The Shift from Polypharmacy to Personalized, Data-Driven Care

As older adults increasingly find themselves managing 10 to 15 medications—spanning prescriptions, over-the-counter drugs, and supplements—the urgency to refine medication management has never been greater. Over the last two decades, the average number of prescriptions for individuals 65 and older has doubled, driven by a mix of longer life expectancy, chronic disease management, symptom-based prescribing, and the common practice of layering additional medications

Healthcare’s Unstructured Data Problem: The Case for Modernization

Like most other sectors operating in the digital economy, healthcare has become hugely reliant on unstructured data. It’s widely acknowledged that this data type, which doesn’t follow a predefined format and resides outside traditional databases, now comprises 80-90% of all organizational data. In healthcare settings, this can encompass a wide range of items, including medical imaging, scans, emails, claims documents, and device outputs, among many other possibilities. This information is

The Future of AI in Healthcare: Best Practices for Responsible Innovation

The Future of AI in Healthcare: Best Practices for Responsible Innovation

Our patients can’t afford to wait on officials in Washington, DC, to offer guidance around responsible applications of AI in the healthcare industry. The healthcare community needs to stand up and continue to put guardrails in place so we can roll out AI responsibly in order to maximize its evolving potential.  Responsible AI, for example, should include reducing bias in access to and authorization of care, protecting patient data, and making sure that outputs are continually

Medical Imaging Ecosystems: A New Model for AI Adoption and Interoperability

The medical imaging industry is increasingly embracing a simple truth: there is strength in numbers. This is evident in the growing adoption of partnership ecosystems. This collaborative model brings technology companies and service providers together to deliver seamless solutions across the full continuum of care, from initial imaging to diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up support.  This model is gaining traction largely due to the flexibility it affords hospitals and health systems in

Medical Debt Laws Are Changing Fast. Is Your Revenue Cycle Ready?

by Ana Ponder, Director of RCM Solutions at Millennia 09/12/2025 Leave a Comment

Medical Debt Laws Are Changing Fast. Is Your Revenue Cycle Ready?

The medical debt regulation landscape is poised to change drastically over the next few years. Laws in Texas, New York, and New Jersey are key case studies of this shift, imposing stricter rules on billing transparency, debt collection practices, and patient financial assistance. Providers may or may not be ready for the shift, but those that embrace it will find a real opportunity to improve the financial experience of their patients, build lasting relationships and protect their bottom

Redefining Cardiac Outcomes Through Independent Remote Monitoring Platforms

by Arnaud Rosier, CEO of Implicity 09/11/2025 Leave a Comment

Redefining Cardiac Outcomes Through Independent Remote Monitoring Platforms

As healthcare continues its shift toward value-based, patient-centered care, remote monitoring (RM) has become a cornerstone in the management of chronic cardiac conditions. For patients with implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) and cardiac resynchronization therapy devices (CRT-Ds), real-time data collection enables earlier interventions—helping reduce hospitalizations, improve survival, and enhance quality of life. But while the clinical value of RM is clear, its practical

Medicaid Expansion: A Guide for Healthcare Providers to Prepare for Change

Medicaid is a lifeline for roughly 84.5 million people across the U.S., yet access to that safety net still depends on state lines. Ten states—Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Wisconsin, and Wyoming—continue to reject the Affordable Care Act (ACA) expansion, leaving an estimated 1.4 million adults in the infamous coverage gap. This category includes individuals whose earnings are too high for traditional Medicaid but still below the poverty level

Why Healthcare Organizations are Turning to Managed Service Providers (MSPs)

For some employers, successfully implementing software can feel like a sports team clinching a playoff spot after a grueling season—relief followed by high-fives. But no matter how many bona fide improvements the new software delivers a healthcare organization, challenges inevitably come. The hurdles range from short-term ones, like generating custom reports (beyond the templates that are part of the package), to longer-term concerns, such as replacing the systems’ trained administrators who
