Key Takeaways:
Telepsychiatry and interventional psychiatry are both expanding rapidly, but existing virtual care workflows are not yet designed to integrate advanced treatment pathways.Current telepsychiatry platforms create a care gap by failing to identify, coordinate, and retain patients who could benefit from interventional treatments like TMS or esketamine.Redesigning workflows with structured data, EHR integration, and pre-procedure education can enable telepsychiatry to serve as a

Scaling Enterprise Imaging: IT Lessons from Digital Pathology
Health IT leaders looking to scale enterprise imaging programs should take note of digital pathology.Whole slide images, often two to ten times the size of a radiology study, have forced pathology to confront the challenges that most imaging modalities eventually face, but at an order of magnitude that’s particularly instructive. Here are the lessons learned about what works at scale and where implementations fall short.
At Scale, Infrastructure and Workflow Are the Same ProblemIt’s

Why Health Tech Leaders Need to Stop Setting Goals and Start Drawing Ladders
Every health tech marketing leader I've talked to in the last two years has said some version of the same thing: "We know where we want to be. We just can't seem to get there."
They have a goal. They have a budget. They have a team. What they don't have is a map.
"Grow ARR 30% this year." "Increase brand awareness in the mid-market." "Become the go-to platform for patient engagement." These are not strategies. They are wishes with a deadline attached. And in health tech, where sales cycles

IT Teams are the New Drivers of Healthcare Efficiency and Value
For years, every hospital department leader was the master of their own domain. The CNO drove staffing ratios and documentation time. The COO oversaw operating room throughput and bed turns. The CFO guarded denials and days in accounts receivable. Revenue cycle, scheduling, imaging, and labs each measured success against individual goals and metrics. But soon, those silos will break down, and healthcare IT is holding the sledgehammer.
Healthcare IT has long been a critical supporting pillar

What Produce Longevity Can Teach Us About Personalized Health Care
The lifespan of an avocado may seem worlds apart from the science of individual health, but both are shaped by the same principle: small environmental stresses compound into dramatically shorter lives. In grocery supply chains, a single hour at the wrong temperature can erase a full day of freshness. In human health, sustained exposure to poor sleep, inconsistent nutrition, and chronic stress quietly accelerates biological aging. As retailers adopt real-time monitoring to

Beyond Chatbots: Agentic AI as the Operating System Transforming Patient Services
Patient Services Are Digitized—but Not Delivered
Over the past decade, healthcare organizations and pharmaceutical companies have invested heavily in digital transformation. Chatbots, patient portals, CRM systems, and omnichannel engagement platforms promised a more responsive, always on patient experience. And to some extent, they delivered.
Yet reality on the ground tells a different story.
Studies indicate that nearly 30–40% of patients in specialty therapies experience

Healthcare’s Next Software Crisis Will Be a Governance Failure, Not a Technology Failure
Healthcare has spent the past several years digitizing nearly every part of care delivery. Electronic health records, telehealth platforms, remote monitoring, AI copilots, patient portals, clinical decision support tools, and revenue cycle automation are no longer side projects; they are core infrastructure.
That shift has created a dangerous blind spot. Many healthcare organizations still treat software risk management as something that happens after the build, during testing, validation,

Clinical Data Fidelity: The Real Blindspot in Healthcare AI Strategy
The healthcare industry has reached something it rarely achieves: near-total agreement. Surveys show 97 percent of healthcare professionals believe AI should support clinical expertise rather than replace it. Human review and validation rank as the top driver of trust in AI outputs. The governance question — who stays at the helm, who holds accountability — has been settled faster than most predicted.
But consensus on governance doesn't mean the harder problem is solved. Nearly 75% of

Moving Healthcare AI from Experimental Pilots to Scaled Execution
Healthcare organizations have spent the last several years exploring AI to address mounting operational and financial pressures—from staffing shortages to rising patient expectations for always-on digital access.
Now, the conversation has shifted. The question is no longer whether AI can help, but whether it can be deployed in a way that is scalable, governed, and capable of delivering measurable value in production environments.
Across health systems, specialty groups, and multi-location

Why Venture Building Is The Only Answer to AI-Driven Disruption in Healthcare
AI is accelerating everything, from how fast an individual can make a grocery list to the speed at which drug discovery timelines play out for pharmaceutical manufacturers. However, many in the healthcare industry are clinging to the old R&D playbook, and legacy strategies will no longer cut it in the time of automation and machine learning. The shift is structural, so it can’t be gradual. Those who remain slow and steady will not win this race.
As AI and personalized medicine reshape the
