00:00:03.231 --> 00:00:08.027
Welcome to Healthy Data Podcast.
We are here today with Yair Saperstein,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/48-1
00:00:08.027 --> 00:00:12.363
the founder and CEO of Avvo,
a Health tech startup and a clinical
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/48-2
00:00:12.363 --> 00:00:16.897
informatics and internal medicine
physician practicing as a per diem
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/48-3
00:00:16.897 --> 00:00:19.591
hospitalist at Mount Sinai Health System.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/53-0
00:00:19.631 --> 00:00:21.911
Yair, thank you for joining us today.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/59-0
00:00:22.511 --> 00:00:25.151
Thank you. It's a pleasure to be here.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/112-0
00:00:24.511 --> 00:00:27.724
For those who don't know,
Mount Sinai Health System is
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/112-1
00:00:27.724 --> 00:00:30.820
headquartered in New York, NY,
in Midtown Manhattan,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/112-2
00:00:30.820 --> 00:00:35.318
with 2800 beds and 12 hospitals staffed
by 6300 primary providers who see an
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/112-3
00:00:35.318 --> 00:00:39.991
additional one and a half million annual
outpatient visits through Mount Sinai.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/157-0
00:00:40.311 --> 00:00:45.899
For everyone's information,
Mount Sinai is an epic EHR health system.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/157-1
00:00:45.899 --> 00:00:52.046
So today we're gonna be talking about
capacity and throughput and leveraging
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/157-2
00:00:52.046 --> 00:00:57.954
technology to improve both. Yair,
I'd like to ask you to start first just
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/157-3
00:00:57.954 --> 00:00:59.631
with a bit of an add.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/198-0
00:00:59.871 --> 00:01:03.029
Anecdote.
You are a practicing physician at a large
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/198-1
00:01:03.029 --> 00:01:07.342
health system in New York City,
and you encountered a problem that you
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/198-2
00:01:07.342 --> 00:01:11.654
then went on to solve with Evo.
Could you tell us about the genesis of
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/198-3
00:01:11.654 --> 00:01:14.631
this business idea and then you know what
it is?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/205-0
00:01:14.911 --> 00:01:18.863
But how did you see a problem as a
physician and then what did you do to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/205-1
00:01:18.863 --> 00:01:19.351
solve it?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/260-0
00:01:20.031 --> 00:01:22.796
Yeah,
so the story actually starts when I was
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/260-1
00:01:22.796 --> 00:01:27.426
in residency and at the time I really
wanted to be a whole person. You know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/260-2
00:01:27.426 --> 00:01:31.635
for me as a practicing doc,
I was pegged as you are a doc and this is
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/260-3
00:01:31.635 --> 00:01:35.603
your whole life, you know?
But I really wanted to be able to have
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/260-4
00:01:35.603 --> 00:01:39.271
dinner with my family.
I wanted to be able to go for a walk.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-0
00:01:39.791 --> 00:01:43.695
Walks. I'm a whole person.
And so I wanted something that would give
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-1
00:01:43.695 --> 00:01:48.110
me efficiency to be a whole person.
Simultaneously, though, I'm a doc, right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-2
00:01:48.110 --> 00:01:52.241
I wanted to be a good clinician.
I wanted to be able to deliver value to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-3
00:01:52.241 --> 00:01:55.070
my patients.
And the best way to do that was with
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-4
00:01:55.070 --> 00:01:57.560
quality.
And how can I have efficiency with
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/315-5
00:01:57.560 --> 00:01:59.711
quality? Those kinds of things didn't.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-0
00:01:59.711 --> 00:02:03.467
There were either the quality systems,
like best practice alerts,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/311-0
00:02:01.751 --> 00:02:02.111
Yeah.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-1
00:02:03.467 --> 00:02:06.654
but there were so many that I I got
overwhelmed, right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-2
00:02:06.654 --> 00:02:10.751
It's like with all these alerts.
And then on the other side is like the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-3
00:02:10.751 --> 00:02:14.166
efficiency plays,
but the efficiency plays were like, yeah,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/339-0
00:02:11.911 --> 00:02:12.151
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-4
00:02:14.166 --> 00:02:16.897
we'll do an 80% good enough job.
It's like, no,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/369-5
00:02:16.897 --> 00:02:19.231
I'm trying to really do as well as I can.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-0
00:02:19.311 --> 00:02:23.833
And so I really wanted the ability to
have those two together as an individual
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-1
00:02:23.833 --> 00:02:26.638
clinician, as an individual physician,
you know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-2
00:02:26.638 --> 00:02:29.786
Fast forward a little bit and I became
chief resident.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-3
00:02:29.786 --> 00:02:32.591
I was involved on the quality side and
you know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-4
00:02:32.591 --> 00:02:35.511
I started to think more from a system
perspective.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/410-5
00:02:35.511 --> 00:02:38.831
I actually was an informatics liaison to
be able to help.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/456-0
00:02:39.231 --> 00:02:45.264
Install the new Epic system as we were
transitioning where I was chief resident
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/456-1
00:02:45.264 --> 00:02:51.222
over to to our Epic system and so really
got more of an overview on the system
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/456-2
00:02:51.222 --> 00:02:54.390
side.
I had also just completed my MPH in
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/456-3
00:02:54.390 --> 00:02:58.991
hospital policy and management, right?
So more of like this.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/494-0
00:02:59.151 --> 00:03:03.952
Broader holistic looking down umbrella
perspective on from a system side more
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/494-1
00:03:03.952 --> 00:03:08.629
than as an individual physician to
complement that with you know what do we
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/494-2
00:03:08.629 --> 00:03:13.184
need as a system and what would be
important from a system level where it
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/494-3
00:03:13.184 --> 00:03:15.031
was really much more about OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/540-0
00:03:15.551 --> 00:03:19.598
Make sure that our physicians,
our clinicians are happy, obviously,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/540-1
00:03:19.598 --> 00:03:22.930
right. So if they're burning out,
we got to solve that.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/540-2
00:03:22.930 --> 00:03:27.632
But we also need from our system side,
the financial ROI to be able to keep us
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/540-3
00:03:27.632 --> 00:03:32.333
afloat, right, keep us going up and up.
And so thinking creatively about these
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/540-4
00:03:32.333 --> 00:03:35.071
different ways of putting those two
together.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/581-0
00:03:35.311 --> 00:03:40.736
Which actually is a larger macro
perspective of what my micro perspective
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/581-1
00:03:40.736 --> 00:03:46.014
as an individual clinician was.
And from that came out Evo and Evo as a
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/581-2
00:03:46.014 --> 00:03:49.972
tool, right?
Evo as a platform is this melding of the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/581-3
00:03:49.972 --> 00:03:55.031
two like quality and efficiency and the
way that we do it in a word.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/628-0
00:03:55.231 --> 00:03:59.973
Is that we have a back end clinical AI
apps builder and so this builder,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/628-1
00:03:59.973 --> 00:04:05.171
we kind of call it an operating system
for building clinical AI apps is able to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/628-2
00:04:05.171 --> 00:04:09.653
solve these different problems.
You want to solve physician burnout.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/628-3
00:04:09.653 --> 00:04:13.551
You have an app for that.
You want to be able to solve your
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/628-4
00:04:13.551 --> 00:04:15.111
throughput and capacity.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/671-0
00:04:15.231 --> 00:04:18.334
We'll talk about that.
We have an app for that.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/671-1
00:04:18.334 --> 00:04:22.020
And over this time,
over the last bunch of years, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/671-2
00:04:22.020 --> 00:04:27.192
as I've been interacting with various
other health systems through our progress
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/671-3
00:04:27.192 --> 00:04:30.102
as a company, right,
with my company hat on,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/671-4
00:04:30.102 --> 00:04:34.951
really have heard from the leading health
systems and the issues that are.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-0
00:04:35.151 --> 00:04:38.322
Being faced, you know,
through all of these systems and heard
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-1
00:04:38.322 --> 00:04:42.465
some of the resonance of what people are
facing and what the systems are facing,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-2
00:04:42.465 --> 00:04:46.147
where one of the major things that I've
been hearing about is capacity.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-3
00:04:46.147 --> 00:04:49.676
How do we solve our capacity problems?
How do we improve throughput?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-4
00:04:49.676 --> 00:04:53.461
How do we allow for more patients to get
in by getting more patients out?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/725-5
00:04:53.461 --> 00:04:54.791
And so thinking about the.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/747-0
00:04:54.911 --> 00:04:58.806
Aspect of how to solve that from a
broader perspective and the clinical AI
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/747-1
00:04:58.806 --> 00:05:03.169
apps that can help with that is something
that's definitely been on my mind for the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/747-2
00:05:03.169 --> 00:05:04.831
last for the last bunch of time.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-0
00:05:04.991 --> 00:05:08.039
So here you covered a lot of different
issues right now.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-1
00:05:08.039 --> 00:05:12.103
We're going to drill into one of them,
but let me just recapitulate for our
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-2
00:05:12.103 --> 00:05:14.456
listeners.
We talked about quality of care,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-3
00:05:14.456 --> 00:05:18.307
efficiency and delivery of care,
physician satisfaction and burnout and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-4
00:05:18.307 --> 00:05:21.783
capacity and throughput.
I'd like to start with quality of care.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/797-5
00:05:21.783 --> 00:05:24.831
I understand that there are society
guidelines and best.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/837-0
00:05:24.911 --> 00:05:29.989
Practices put out by the Association of
whatever American, the AP.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/837-1
00:05:29.989 --> 00:05:34.461
There are many different associations,
pulmonary, cardiac,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/837-2
00:05:34.461 --> 00:05:40.449
and they have best practices and you have
content aggregators to summarize the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/837-3
00:05:40.449 --> 00:05:44.391
guidelines and then integrate them into
the EHR to.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/852-0
00:05:44.591 --> 00:05:48.293
Tee them up for clinicians to provide
more standard care.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/852-1
00:05:48.293 --> 00:05:51.867
If that's not accurate,
please just clarify how are you
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/852-2
00:05:51.867 --> 00:05:53.591
addressing quality of care?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/895-0
00:05:53.351 --> 00:05:59.844
Yeah, so similar dual perspective, right?
So everyone and their friends are all
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/895-1
00:05:59.844 --> 00:06:04.389
using AI scribes,
and if you're not using an AI scribe,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/895-2
00:06:04.389 --> 00:06:10.071
well, get on the bandwagon already.
The thing is that AI scribes have
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/895-3
00:06:10.071 --> 00:06:12.831
difficulty in integrating quality.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/946-0
00:06:12.911 --> 00:06:17.480
Into the overall workflow because it's
really contingent on whatever I'm saying.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/946-1
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:21.486
So there's no easy way to be able to
guide me into a proper direction.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/946-2
00:06:21.486 --> 00:06:25.943
The best place to be able to guide is in
the chart summarization piece, right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/946-3
00:06:25.943 --> 00:06:29.610
Before I see a patient,
I normally do chart review and when I go
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/946-4
00:06:29.610 --> 00:06:32.431
through my chart review,
I'll take a look at the.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-0
00:06:32.511 --> 00:06:35.311
Notes and labs and meds,
whatever my role is, right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/941-0
00:06:33.671 --> 00:06:33.991
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-1
00:06:35.311 --> 00:06:38.798
I'll do this as an outpatient doc.
I'll do this as a hospitalist.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/950-0
00:06:36.111 --> 00:06:36.231
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-2
00:06:38.798 --> 00:06:42.918
I'll do this as a consultant to be able
to review the church, whatever it is.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-3
00:06:42.918 --> 00:06:46.088
And then for me,
I need to synthesize that and think about,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-4
00:06:46.088 --> 00:06:48.413
OK,
what is the proper thing that I need to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1001-5
00:06:48.413 --> 00:06:52.111
do regardless of where that's coming from?
Is it a society guideline?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-0
00:06:52.511 --> 00:06:54.895
And is it coming from a guideline
aggregator?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-1
00:06:54.895 --> 00:06:59.094
Is it coming from utilization management?
And if I should admit or discharge the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-2
00:06:59.094 --> 00:07:01.634
patient, right,
wherever that decision point is,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-3
00:07:01.634 --> 00:07:05.107
I'm getting it from a reliable source,
which is going to guide me.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-4
00:07:05.107 --> 00:07:09.305
And sometimes that source is something
that I've learned beforehand and then I'm
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1056-5
00:07:09.305 --> 00:07:11.431
just incorporating whatever I need to do.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-0
00:07:12.071 --> 00:07:14.631
In order to actually have decision
support, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-1
00:07:14.631 --> 00:07:18.497
the way that people think about it is
alerts in the EHR based on things that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-2
00:07:18.497 --> 00:07:21.860
are going on in the EHR.
But if there was some way that I can have
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-3
00:07:21.860 --> 00:07:25.123
it in the context of my chart
summarization so that whenever I'm
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-4
00:07:25.123 --> 00:07:28.186
opening up my chart summarizer or what we
call chart assist,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1112-5
00:07:28.186 --> 00:07:31.951
then I'm able to get the decision support
together with that chart assist.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-0
00:07:32.031 --> 00:07:35.953
Here's the summary of your patient.
Here's our recommendations of what you
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-1
00:07:35.953 --> 00:07:38.725
might want to do,
and here's a pre-drafted note that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-2
00:07:38.725 --> 00:07:41.392
actually incorporates both of them
together. Well,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-3
00:07:41.392 --> 00:07:45.576
all of a sudden then I have the ability
to really drive forward in my path that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-4
00:07:45.576 --> 00:07:48.610
I'm doing right,
because I'm getting more efficiency as a
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-5
00:07:48.610 --> 00:07:51.382
clinician,
but with the guidance of decision support
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1162-6
00:07:51.382 --> 00:07:51.591
and.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1210-0
00:07:51.711 --> 00:07:55.640
The workflow that I prefer right?
Because I want to do this,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1210-1
00:07:55.640 --> 00:08:00.794
it saves me time. And on the Avo side,
we show that we can actually reduce node
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1210-2
00:08:00.794 --> 00:08:06.077
bloat by doing it this way in addition to
improving quality in addition to saving
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1210-3
00:08:06.077 --> 00:08:09.620
time, right?
So like this triple aim of having quality
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1210-4
00:08:09.620 --> 00:08:11.231
that is true quality for.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-0
00:08:11.231 --> 00:08:15.232
The patient reflected in documentation
and then time efficiency gains for
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-1
00:08:15.232 --> 00:08:17.989
clinicians.
But regardless of the specific answer,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-2
00:08:17.989 --> 00:08:22.098
it's thinking creatively about how to
actually put the effective content of
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-3
00:08:22.098 --> 00:08:25.612
what you want to do into a workflow that
people will respond to.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-4
00:08:25.612 --> 00:08:28.694
And people used to think, well,
if you have a hard stop,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1260-5
00:08:28.694 --> 00:08:30.911
if you have an alert, that's gonna force.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-0
00:08:31.031 --> 00:08:33.656
to go in whatever direction you want,
that'll work.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-1
00:08:33.656 --> 00:08:37.594
And they realize that people are just
writing QWERTY as an answer to whatever
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-2
00:08:37.594 --> 00:08:41.229
it is, like, hey, this is a hard stop,
you must respond. QWERTY, enter.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-3
00:08:41.229 --> 00:08:44.865
And then people are ignoring those hard
stops because there's too many.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-4
00:08:44.865 --> 00:08:47.742
And instead people want an easy pass.
We're in New York,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1321-5
00:08:47.742 --> 00:08:50.671
so it probably won't say Sunshine Pass
like in the South.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-0
00:08:50.911 --> 00:08:55.262
Right that people want an easy pass to be
able to actually go down and once you're
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-1
00:08:55.262 --> 00:08:58.197
on that easy pass route,
then you can get whatever your
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-2
00:08:58.197 --> 00:09:01.552
recommendations are or advertisements
right in the car example.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-3
00:09:01.552 --> 00:09:05.484
But the right path that you wanna go to,
maybe not the best corollary with
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-4
00:09:05.484 --> 00:09:08.891
advertisements, right?
But the proper path of where you wanna go
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1368-5
00:09:08.891 --> 00:09:10.831
cuz you're already on that easy path.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1370-0
00:09:10.871 --> 00:09:11.111
Yes.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1409-0
00:09:11.551 --> 00:09:15.334
So you're looking to reduce provider
variability,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1409-1
00:09:15.334 --> 00:09:20.403
improve throughput by making more
valuable and less frequent BPAS,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1409-2
00:09:20.403 --> 00:09:26.304
and then reducing friction between case
managers and clinicians and trying to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1409-3
00:09:26.304 --> 00:09:31.071
help providers better adhere to best
practices. Is that right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1428-0
00:09:31.591 --> 00:09:35.431
Yeah,
so so once one specific example right for
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1428-1
00:09:35.431 --> 00:09:41.911
throughput and this is really where right
at the the best value can be found so.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1425-0
00:09:42.231 --> 00:09:42.391
M.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1452-0
00:09:56.711 --> 00:09:56.871
Yeah.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1459-0
00:09:59.071 --> 00:09:59.191
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1465-0
00:10:02.671 --> 00:10:02.791
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1468-0
00:10:02.831 --> 00:10:02.871
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1511-0
00:10:02.831 --> 00:10:06.193
Basically,
case managers would use these guidelines
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1511-1
00:10:06.193 --> 00:10:10.331
to help determine if the patient,
let's say, discharged, right?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1511-2
00:10:10.331 --> 00:10:14.469
So an admitted patient,
are they eligible for discharge or not?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1511-3
00:10:14.469 --> 00:10:19.318
If they match the criteria that are in
the care guideline criteria, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1511-4
00:10:19.318 --> 00:10:22.551
that's OK, yeah,
they match each of these things.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1558-0
00:10:22.831 --> 00:10:27.334
They're stable, they're able to walk,
they they're they don't have abnormal
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1558-1
00:10:27.334 --> 00:10:32.371
labs and each of the criteria specific to
their disease states, to their conditions,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1558-2
00:10:32.371 --> 00:10:36.046
and if they match well,
then they are eligible for discharge,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1558-3
00:10:36.046 --> 00:10:38.831
right?
And those guidelines that arbitrator is
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1558-4
00:10:38.831 --> 00:10:42.031
trusted by health systems and by
insurance companies.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-0
00:10:42.831 --> 00:10:44.911
Now,
the way that happens for me as a
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-1
00:10:44.911 --> 00:10:48.251
hospitalist, right?
So let's go back in time a little bit is
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-2
00:10:48.251 --> 00:10:52.576
I would show up at an interdisciplinary
rounds and the case manager would say,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-3
00:10:52.576 --> 00:10:56.244
is the patient ready for discharge?
And I would say, I don't know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-4
00:10:56.244 --> 00:10:58.982
the patient's still sick.
And then it's OK, well,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1621-5
00:10:58.982 --> 00:11:02.431
should I get the discharge paperwork
ready? I'll let you know.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1664-0
00:11:02.511 --> 00:11:02.871
The patient.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-0
00:11:02.991 --> 00:11:04.876
Better.
And then there's this whole back and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-1
00:11:04.876 --> 00:11:07.976
forth because they're taking a look at
the guidelines where the patient's
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-2
00:11:07.976 --> 00:11:10.322
actually matching as they're cross
checking everything,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-3
00:11:10.322 --> 00:11:13.631
which takes them a long time if they
actually go through it. For me, I'm like,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-4
00:11:13.631 --> 00:11:15.517
hey,
I would just thought that the patient's
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-5
00:11:15.517 --> 00:11:17.904
sick and I'll let you know.
And then this afternoon, oh,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-6
00:11:17.904 --> 00:11:20.879
everything's actually resolved. Yeah,
we can discharge. Unfortunately,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1678-7
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:22.471
it's already Friday afternoon and the.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-0
00:11:22.831 --> 00:11:25.273
You know,
shelter's not going to take the packet
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-1
00:11:25.273 --> 00:11:28.962
and we got to wait until Monday.
That's a longer length of stay and it's,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-2
00:11:28.962 --> 00:11:31.404
you know,
that's repetitive across the different
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-3
00:11:31.404 --> 00:11:33.846
patients across their disease states.
Over here,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-4
00:11:33.846 --> 00:11:37.734
what we do is we partnered with MCG to be
able to take their content into the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-5
00:11:37.734 --> 00:11:41.273
overall workflow so that when I open up
my chart summarization, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1738-6
00:11:41.273 --> 00:11:42.071
my chart assist.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-0
00:11:42.431 --> 00:11:45.729
In the morning,
when I'm pre-rounding on my patients as a
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-1
00:11:45.729 --> 00:11:49.709
hospitalist or as a case manager,
it will automatically summarize the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-2
00:11:49.709 --> 00:11:52.609
patient's information compared to the MCG
content,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-3
00:11:52.609 --> 00:11:55.452
tell you if the patient's eligible for
discharge.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-4
00:11:55.452 --> 00:11:59.830
If the patient is eligible for discharge,
pre-draft you a discharge summary.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1785-5
00:11:59.830 --> 00:12:01.991
It means that the hospitalist and the.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1832-0
00:12:02.151 --> 00:12:05.723
Case manager on the same page.
That's how to get patients out
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1832-1
00:12:05.723 --> 00:12:10.333
appropriately because you suddenly reduce
that variation and the back and forth
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1832-2
00:12:10.333 --> 00:12:15.001
between these different parties and then
allow for the patients to be discharged
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1832-3
00:12:15.001 --> 00:12:19.207
appropriately, reducing length of stay,
improving throughput and thereby
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1832-4
00:12:19.207 --> 00:12:22.031
improving capacity.
So it's a specific use case.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1877-0
00:12:22.031 --> 00:12:27.174
To solve that ROI with the same idea,
right? It's the same structural framework.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1877-1
00:12:27.174 --> 00:12:31.301
It's the same scaffolding.
You're doing patient data extraction,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1877-2
00:12:31.301 --> 00:12:36.127
checking against a knowledge source and
having the AI take the patient data
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1877-3
00:12:36.127 --> 00:12:41.271
against the knowledge source to see where
it matches and then producing outputs.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1888-0
00:12:41.551 --> 00:12:46.957
or orders as appropriate with a specific
eye towards utilization management of the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1888-1
00:12:46.957 --> 00:12:48.911
example of the MCG guidelines.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1938-0
00:12:48.591 --> 00:12:52.114
And when I'd like to,
I think some of our listeners might be
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1938-1
00:12:52.114 --> 00:12:56.793
interested in learning about some of the
clinical outcomes of implementing these
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1938-2
00:12:56.793 --> 00:12:59.855
interventions.
Would I be correct to say that you've
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1938-3
00:12:59.855 --> 00:13:03.667
seen improved HCAP scores,
better guideline medication adherence,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1938-4
00:13:03.667 --> 00:13:08.231
savings at one site in the millions of
dollars, reduced admissions delays and.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1945-0
00:13:08.431 --> 00:13:11.751
Improved time saving and is it not
accurate?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1986-0
00:13:11.871 --> 00:13:15.795
That is, yeah.
And we've seen it across these different
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1986-1
00:13:15.795 --> 00:13:19.719
ROI trackers.
So in addition to all the things that you
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1986-2
00:13:19.719 --> 00:13:23.433
mentioned,
I had mentioned we saw reduced note bloat
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1986-3
00:13:23.433 --> 00:13:28.197
in addition by eliminating copy forward,
which is good for quality,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/1986-4
00:13:28.197 --> 00:13:31.351
significant time reduction in
documentation.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2032-0
00:13:31.911 --> 00:13:35.702
So, right,
it's across different areas where you'll
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2032-1
00:13:35.702 --> 00:13:39.201
see these improvements,
obviously cost savings,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2032-2
00:13:39.201 --> 00:13:43.138
better medication adherence, right,
as you mentioned,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2032-3
00:13:43.138 --> 00:13:48.387
decreased admission delays, right.
So across the spectrum where we have
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2014-0
00:13:45.431 --> 00:13:45.511
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2032-4
00:13:48.387 --> 00:13:51.231
shown significant ROI with these tools.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2023-0
00:13:50.831 --> 00:13:50.871
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-0
00:13:51.391 --> 00:13:55.975
And then the nice thing about it is when
people first started implementing AI in
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-1
00:13:55.975 --> 00:14:00.277
health systems, it was a like, OK,
we have to get this in because everybody
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-2
00:14:00.277 --> 00:14:03.616
else has it. You know,
we have to get this in because it's
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-3
00:14:03.616 --> 00:14:06.559
something which seems to have a
significant impact.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2063-0
00:14:06.511 --> 00:14:06.631
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-4
00:14:06.559 --> 00:14:10.748
But now we're at a point of, OK,
we want to get these tools in because we
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2088-5
00:14:10.748 --> 00:14:11.031
want.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2107-0
00:14:11.231 --> 00:14:16.006
Significant financial ROI. In addition,
where are we going to see this ROI that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2107-1
00:14:16.006 --> 00:14:19.111
the system will pay for itself over the
first year?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2151-0
00:14:17.671 --> 00:14:23.376
So, Yair, I'd like to pivot.
We we only have about a few more minutes
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2151-1
00:14:23.376 --> 00:14:28.511
left in this episode,
and I want to pivot to the idea of being
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2151-2
00:14:28.511 --> 00:14:33.809
an entrepreneurial provider.
So health systems across the United
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2151-3
00:14:33.809 --> 00:14:37.151
States have incubators where they try to.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2198-0
00:14:37.231 --> 00:14:42.424
Invest in startup ideas and generate new
revenue streams for the health system by
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2198-1
00:14:42.424 --> 00:14:45.527
holding an equity stake in these startups.
Also,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2198-2
00:14:45.527 --> 00:14:50.594
health systems have providers like you
who see problems in the health system as
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2198-3
00:14:50.594 --> 00:14:54.584
they're delivering care that they have
ideas for how to solve.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2198-4
00:14:54.584 --> 00:14:56.991
So I'd like to ask you to speak about.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2247-0
00:14:57.071 --> 00:15:01.444
Both those topics separately.
One is if a health system executive is
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2247-1
00:15:01.444 --> 00:15:06.325
listening to this episode right now,
how would you advise them to respond to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2247-2
00:15:06.325 --> 00:15:11.269
providers in their own system who have
identified problems and identify would
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2247-3
00:15:11.269 --> 00:15:15.960
like to experiment with possible
solutions to improve the problems facing
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2247-4
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:16.911
them every day?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2250-0
00:15:17.031 --> 00:15:17.511
Start there.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2296-0
00:15:18.271 --> 00:15:22.972
Yeah. So when I was in residency,
I was in SUNY downstate.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2296-1
00:15:22.972 --> 00:15:28.071
And one of my favorite things about it
was that the leadership,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2296-2
00:15:28.071 --> 00:15:34.605
the executives were so supportive of my
ideas to be able to guide me to the right
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2296-3
00:15:34.605 --> 00:15:38.111
people who can help to the right
resources.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2345-0
00:15:38.111 --> 00:15:43.147
I was able to work with the CMIO at Kings
County Hospital doing electives and then
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2345-1
00:15:43.147 --> 00:15:47.091
later as an informatics liaison to be
able to help install Epic.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2345-2
00:15:47.091 --> 00:15:51.884
And there was so much that I learned
along the way because of the support that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2345-3
00:15:51.884 --> 00:15:55.646
I got. Fast forward and we were actually,
once I started Avo,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2345-4
00:15:55.646 --> 00:15:57.831
the first company in Elemental Labs.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2336-0
00:15:57.631 --> 00:15:57.671
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2388-0
00:15:58.031 --> 00:16:01.498
In Mount Sinai.
So when that started as an incubator,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2388-1
00:16:01.498 --> 00:16:06.507
we were the first company to go through
and we were learning together, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2388-2
00:16:06.507 --> 00:16:10.552
how to be able to support these ideas
that are coming through.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2388-3
00:16:10.552 --> 00:16:15.433
Not that I was a doc at Mount Sinai and
being supported from inside that we
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2388-4
00:16:15.433 --> 00:16:17.231
actually applied externally.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2379-0
00:16:17.071 --> 00:16:17.111
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2436-0
00:16:17.551 --> 00:16:24.166
To be able to join Elementa and I had to
be a path that was very explicit about
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2436-1
00:16:24.166 --> 00:16:30.698
like how we would chart this out because
I was per diem at Mount Sinai, right,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2436-2
00:16:30.698 --> 00:16:35.329
even at the time.
And so we had to figure out that path
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2418-0
00:16:32.631 --> 00:16:33.111
Mhm.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2436-3
00:16:35.329 --> 00:16:37.231
that we would navigate.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2490-0
00:16:37.231 --> 00:16:41.440
Exactly what I could do and couldn't do
within that context of the path.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2490-1
00:16:41.440 --> 00:16:45.937
So I think a couple things to call out.
Number one is being supportive of the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2490-2
00:16:45.937 --> 00:16:50.493
physicians and of the clinicians that
have these ideas will allow them to feel
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2468-0
00:16:48.911 --> 00:16:48.951
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2490-3
00:16:50.493 --> 00:16:55.221
empowered to make the real changes that
we're seeing. So support your clinicians,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2472-0
00:16:51.471 --> 00:16:51.511
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2490-4
00:16:55.221 --> 00:16:56.951
support your physicians #2 is.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2481-0
00:16:55.631 --> 00:16:55.671
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-0
00:16:57.151 --> 00:17:00.966
Make sure to handle the conflict of
interest needs. Well, you know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-1
00:17:00.966 --> 00:17:04.614
that was something which was a little bit
difficult to navigate,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-2
00:17:04.614 --> 00:17:08.879
but especially they were super helpful
for me to, you know, figure out, OK,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-3
00:17:08.879 --> 00:17:12.245
what was OK for me?
What should be handled by others within
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-4
00:17:12.245 --> 00:17:15.332
my company?
What was I allowed to do or not? You know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2539-5
00:17:15.332 --> 00:17:16.791
could we join this or not?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2579-0
00:17:16.991 --> 00:17:22.327
At different times to just to make sure
that everything was was clear and I took
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2579-1
00:17:22.327 --> 00:17:27.466
their guidance and was super appreciative
for that guidance to make sure that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2579-2
00:17:27.466 --> 00:17:32.671
everything was in line. Third is you know,
thinking from a system perspective.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-0
00:17:32.991 --> 00:17:36.653
There is money opportunity, right?
It's like if companies are going to do
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-1
00:17:36.653 --> 00:17:40.167
well and you have equity stake in these
companies, well, that's great.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-2
00:17:40.167 --> 00:17:43.583
Then you're able to do well from
continuing to do what you're doing,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-3
00:17:43.583 --> 00:17:47.790
just inculcating this idea of innovation.
And it's not just that you are innovative,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-4
00:17:47.790 --> 00:17:51.403
which itself has a lot of value,
but also the financial returns that are
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2636-5
00:17:51.403 --> 00:17:52.591
possible. So with those.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2672-0
00:17:52.991 --> 00:17:57.825
I would say definitely from my side
within the vendor perspective,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2672-1
00:17:57.825 --> 00:18:03.165
it was amazing to be able to have these
experiences and to go through the
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2672-2
00:18:03.165 --> 00:18:08.577
elemental labs in Mount Sinai and in
general to be supported by the health
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2672-3
00:18:08.577 --> 00:18:11.031
systems that we were working with.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2706-0
00:18:11.351 --> 00:18:16.225
Both from my time as a in residency and
then and then beyond and then from a
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2706-1
00:18:16.225 --> 00:18:20.150
system level perspective,
like there's a lot of gain that can
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2706-2
00:18:20.150 --> 00:18:23.759
happen there. So it's not just a service,
it's you know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2706-3
00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:26.671
you can do good and do well at the same
time.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2755-0
00:18:26.271 --> 00:18:29.015
Right.
So it sounds like you health system may
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2755-1
00:18:29.015 --> 00:18:33.803
benefit from supporting providers who'd
like to start their own solutions both by
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2755-2
00:18:33.803 --> 00:18:38.299
having equity and successful start-ups
and generating cash flow that way and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2755-3
00:18:38.299 --> 00:18:43.028
also introducing solutions for providers
at their health system to problems that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2755-4
00:18:43.028 --> 00:18:45.831
exist.
So kind of improving provider retention.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2801-0
00:18:46.111 --> 00:18:50.363
And all the different issues we've
covered today from quality to efficiency
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2801-1
00:18:50.363 --> 00:18:53.944
to to improve profitability.
We are approaching the end of this
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2801-2
00:18:53.944 --> 00:18:58.141
podcast episode. So final question, Yair,
I'd like to ask if looking back,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2801-3
00:18:58.141 --> 00:19:02.449
is there if you could have one wish of
something you could change or looking
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2801-4
00:19:02.449 --> 00:19:05.191
forward if there's one thing you'd like
to have?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2848-0
00:19:05.871 --> 00:19:08.912
You know,
you think health system leadership could
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2848-1
00:19:08.912 --> 00:19:13.504
help you with or help providers if
they're looking to improve throughput and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2848-2
00:19:13.504 --> 00:19:16.545
improve outcomes and improve efficiency.
You know,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2848-3
00:19:16.545 --> 00:19:21.256
what's kind of the one thing that you
would either like differently or like in
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2848-4
00:19:21.256 --> 00:19:25.431
the future or one kind of take away for
our exec leadership audience?
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2849-0
00:19:26.111 --> 00:19:26.351
Today.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2888-0
00:19:27.391 --> 00:19:30.561
Yeah.
Biggest take away is kind of like your
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2888-1
00:19:30.561 --> 00:19:34.154
last point,
which is listen to your physicians and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2888-2
00:19:34.154 --> 00:19:39.790
clinicians on the ground to be able to
synthesize the things that are important
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2868-0
00:19:35.991 --> 00:19:36.111
OK.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2888-3
00:19:39.790 --> 00:19:43.031
and the way that things are actually
working.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2926-0
00:19:43.231 --> 00:19:47.929
Which you don't always get to experience
unless you're actually in the trenches.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2926-1
00:19:47.929 --> 00:19:51.526
And then with that you're going to be
able to understand, OK,
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2926-2
00:19:51.526 --> 00:19:56.282
what are the real problems and you know
what's going on and with the capacity and
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2926-3
00:19:56.282 --> 00:19:58.951
throughput examples, right?
It's like if the.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2957-0
00:20:12.671 --> 00:20:12.711
I.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3010-0
00:20:12.871 --> 00:20:17.126
10 rounds and it's like, OK, cool.
Like would it help to get something which
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3010-1
00:20:17.126 --> 00:20:21.547
would be able to be like an arbitrator
that has the guidelines that can help be
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/2972-0
00:20:19.831 --> 00:20:20.311
Mhm.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3010-2
00:20:21.547 --> 00:20:24.641
present there?
And then it's like you have something to
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3010-3
00:20:24.641 --> 00:20:28.841
disagree about as opposed to just
disagreeing like that can help solve that
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3010-4
00:20:28.841 --> 00:20:31.991
problem as one example, right?
But the key is listening.
7a348fe0-4a18-47ea-828a-6cef1df75f23/3018-0
00:20:32.751 --> 00:20:36.311
Listening to your clinicians, that's, uh,
that's the secret.
