This is sort of funny. I know many investors in the sector who would argue against at least 3 of these areas. I'm not overly bullish on any of these #digitalhealth markets!
Here are five digital health markets to watch as investors look to pour major cash into the healthcare sector. fiercehealthcare.com/digital…

Why do some founders raise at 500m with 0 revenue while others struggle to raise with 10m revenue? Fundraising is about NARRATIVE, not just NUMBERS. Narrative includes a compelling Why Now, a tremendous Team, a differentiated Product and Strategy, and a massive Vision.

Honored to continue our work with the amazing @concert_health team to improve behavioral health at scale!
#behavioralhealth is critical to overall health, but too many aren't getting the right care. That's why we're building America's leading behavioral health medical group with a turnkey solution designed for primary care. Read about our recent funding here: businesswire.com/news/home/2…

1/ Digital health is now growing quickly enough to support the need for a new dedicated tech stack. These companies require similar infra to trad’l providers but the relevant existing HCIT systems make you want to say “the 1990’s called and they want their software back.”

1/n Please pay attention, please. I'm afraid that we are falling behind in this COVID race. There are at least 4 variants of concern: variants arising in London, Manaus, Japan and South Africa.

Sprockets enables employers to hire more employees who are very much like their already known top-performers. The result is better employees, higher retention, and a more productive culture.

.@benjaminwittes why wouldn't he wait and get the nomination for Breyer's seat? Seems like a v big sacrifice on Garland's part to take AG when he was prob a frontrunner(?) for SCOTUS?

Major 2021 theme of healthcare: there are now ways startups can take focused, high-payoff risk on improving health in patients. Total game-changer. No longer have to build a full-stack co to reap the value.

Eg: Medicare direct contracting. Use existing rails in care delivery. Leverage cost-intensive actual physical delivery of care others have built, add your innovation & drive down HC costs. Unlocks scale. Startup profit/success is proportionate to benefit. bit.ly/38hOgU1

Love this approach. Allows for quicker & more focused innovation plus a leveraged bet. Among startups enabling this: @kynafong & @ElationHealth, Andrew Allison & OnBelay. Which others???
