Yes 💯% Patient and clinician confidence is paramount in healthcare technology adoption. As a #CSO (Clinical Safety Officer) I'm frequently surprised by the number of health tech solutions that reach the market (and often deployment!) without adequate consideration for their #clinicalsafety implications and how they disrupt existing workflows. Clinicians, understandably, are skeptical beings. Right from the very beginning we're trained to value evidence-based medicine. Without evidence of safety, how can clinicians or their patients have faith in your health tech solution? Proactive clinical risk management is essential. It's more than just compliance with #DCB0129 and #DTAC but about consumer confidence. If you're developing health-tech and want to learn more get in touch!

I’m worried about the state of venture capital and direct-to-consumer (DTC) healthcare startups. Hims & Hers is the poster child for DTC healthcare at $1.2B proj 2024 revenue and a $3.6B valuation. By most accounts, they have been an outlier success for DTC since bottoming out in May 2022. So why is this bad news for DTC healthcare? Because the market leader (Hims) trades at a 3x forward revenue multiple. And the category leader typically gets a higher valuation multiple than smaller startups. We see this phenomenon in private equity. They “roll up” smaller companies within the same category at a lower multiples just to create one larger platform that trades at higher multiples. Now back to DTC healthcare startups. If Hims commands a 3x revenue multiple, it’s not unrealistic that smaller, unprofitable startups may be valued 1-2x revenue at exit. At 2x revenue, a startup must generate $500M to produce a $1B exit in today’s market (depending on growth and profitability). Series A/B venture capitalists must see a pathway to $1B outcomes. And if the growth-stage investors with billions under management are less interested in DTC healthcare, the future funding rounds necessary for fueling growth are not guaranteed. Juxtapose this against 2017-2022 where DTC could raise Series B-E funding. Let’s take a DTC startup doing $25M after 3-4 years of operations and has already raised a Series A. By most accounts, it would be a phenomenal accomplishment. But today, investors will question the chances of that same company scaling from $25M to $500M revenue in the next 3-4 years with unknown future funding sources from Series B and beyond. You're stuck in VC-funding purgatory. Some of these companies will shut down. Some may sell for 1-3x revenue. And some may try to transition to profitable, cash-flowing businesses. All of which are certainly not the venture-backed goal the founders, investors, and employees often had in mind when first taking capital. I say this all with friends working at or starting DTC healthcare companies, I feel bad for them. I also feel bad for the patients who enjoy those products or services. To caveat (b/c I know people will object), there will be other DTC brands that exit for $1B+ (i.e., Ro). However, they were forged and scaled during a different time period where seemingly endless venture capital was available for DTC healthcare. Now we're in a different time with no end in sight. Thoughts?

Imagine a future where medication adherence becomes effortless and precise, transforming patient care as we know it. Combining objective measures with subjective measures of medication adherence represents a comprehensive approach to assessing and addressing adherence challenges. Objective measures, like electronic pill monitoring devices provide quantifiable data on medication-taking behaviors, offering valuable insights into adherence patterns and missed doses. On the other hand, subjective measures, like patient self-reports capture patients' perceptions and experiences related to medication adherence, including barriers, motivations, and adherence-related beliefs. That future is now...

🚀 Empowering Healthcare Startups: Key Insights for Success 🚀 Check out this article from MedCity News highlighting key questions #VCs ask #startups, outlined in a panel with Thomas C. Hawes, M.D., MBA, of Sandbox Industries, Emily Durfee of Healthworx and Janet Xu of Distributed Ventures. ✔ Be clear in what problem you are solving, and make sure it's a problem someone will *pay* you to solve. ✔ Have a crisp business model, including both fee-for-service and value-based-care options. ✔Ensure your use of AI is integral to solving the problem. AI without business value is likely going to disappoint the customer and stunt the startup's growth. By focusing on these key areas, healthcare startups can navigate the challenges working with VCs and make a significant impact. #HealthcareStartups #Innovation #DigitalHealth #MentalHealth #DataAnalytics #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareonLinkedIn #VentureCapital Microsoft for Startups

Everyone in digital health is talking about Telehealth 2.0 right now, but what we really should be talking about is, direct to consumer (D2C) 2.0. Here's why: ⤵ - D2C 1.0 was all about 🍆 pills, hair growth, and birth control, built primarily by D2C startups like Hims or Ro. - D2C 2.0 is going to be all about GLP1's, built by physicians via fractional private practices leveraging social as their main source of distribution. Now, here's where I'm going to make a massive prediction (piggy backing off of Scott Galloway). GLP1's will be what revitalizes primary care, not any of the new CMS payment models, not value based care, not even any of the new tech. Instead it's an old drug with a new rebrand that will save the doctor patient relationship and shift the clinical workforce back to independent practice, and of course it will all powered by AI. TLDR: Every physician in the U.S. will operate a fractional private practice regardless of their FT employment. The default practice type will be D2C and the main objective will be centered on primary care. GLP1s + AI is what gets us there. What do you think of this prediction? ---- Hi, I'm Dr. Mario Amaro, Founder and CEO Ease, and I talk about all things starting, running, and growing a private practice with AI. Follow me, if you are planning to start one or are currently figuring out creative ways to grow one. #PrivatePractice #SelfEmployment #HealthcareOnLinkedin #HeyEase #IndependentTogether #Fintech #Infrastructure #AIinHealthcare #CareDelivery

Calling all female entrepreneurs! Ignite’s accelerator program is officially open for applications until July 22nd. 📆 Why female founders and co-founders? Women make more money. 💵 For every $1 of funding, startups founded and co-founded by women generated 78 cents of revenue, while all male-founded startups generated 31 cents. (Boston Consulting Group (BCG)) 👩‍💼 Despite proven results, only 20% of venture funds go to companies with at least one female founder. For companies with only female founders, that number drops to 2% of venture funds. (Fast Company) 📈 If female entrepreneurs were funded equally, Harvard Business School estimates that $2.5 - $5 Trillion would be added to our global economy. I’ve encountered many accelerators in my career, and I see Ignite offering an ecosystem that supports founders growing their top and bottom lines. I’ve enjoyed getting to know Ayse McCracken over the past and have always appreciated her grasp of the market and authentic thought partnership. I would encourage accelerator-ready female founders in the healthcare space to consider applying to Ignite Healthcare’s accelerator program.

Did you listen in on Part 1? Well, now's the moment because Part 2 is now live! Our founder & CEO Amy Brown was featured on Forbes Book Publishing Smarter Healthcare with AI 🎧 podcast with Dr. Hassan Tetteh MD MBA FAMIA. In this follow-up episode, Amy and Hassan dive deeper into how AI is understanding the patient experience, the power of conversation data and the importance of sharing the positive impacts made by frontline workers. “This conversation data plays a very important role in pointing out the reality of what consumers are facing — and it goes beyond a research paper or ‘this lobby here’ and ‘this lobby there’ — because we’re literally listening to the consumer base directly and you can start to see the interconnectedness and responsibility that we all bear. We all have a part to play in simplifying and making it better.” 🗣️ Amy Brown ➡️ Listen to Part 2 here: https://hubs.li/Q02GZ18J0 ➡️ Or catch-up on Part 1 here: https://hubs.li/Q02GZ1pP0 #Podcast #CustomerVoice #Founder #ListenAtScale #Authenticx
