Thank You for Joining Our Webinar! We had a fantastic session discussing ways to recognize risks and protect heart health during our webinar, "Women's Heart Health 101" led by Simin Gharib Lee. With over 50 registrants, we were thrilled by the turnout and deeply grateful for the thoughtful questions shared during the Q&A. One of the most eye-opening moments came from our live poll, where 80% of participants shared that they had experienced chest pain but were told it was not heart-related—a powerful reminder of the importance of raising awareness and advocating for women’s heart health. Thank you to everyone who participated and contributed to this important conversation. It’s an honor to connect and support women in their journey toward lifelong heart health! ❤️ #HeartHealth #WomensHealth #SystoleHealth #HeartAwareness #Education

The tech/VC world is buzzing about Forward winding down. But the real primary care earthquake this week? Not in the Carepods—it’s right in real-world healthcare’s backyard. At Mass General Brigham, one of the largest health systems in the country (and where I still practice), we learned this week that hundreds of our primary care colleagues are moving to unionize. Days later, news broke that 10 of 13 physicians at a primary care practice in our system are leaving, threatening to shutter the practice altogether and throwing 15k patients' care in limbo. This is a critical signal of the severe access challenges we face in the era of provider shortages. Overworked, overscheduled, and undervalued, physicians are being pushed to their limits—and beyond. Despite investments in NPs and PAs, unsustainable demands remain, and the burden falls on patients who are left waiting months for care—even in states like ours, with numerous health systems. This strain is only set to worsen for specialties like cardiology, where routine conditions such as hypertension and high cholesterol—typically managed by PCPs—are likely to land in cardiology offices, clogging capacity and reducing access to specialized care. Women, already more likely to delay care, are particularly at risk as supply-side issues grow. This is why we're doing what we do at Systole Health: partnering with providers to not only survive but also scale, even at what feels like a tipping point for healthcare. If you're part of a health system looking to expand access to heart health without overburdening your teams, let's talk. #providershortage #physicianburnout #virtualcare #groupcare #healthcareinnovation

As we head to the HLTH USA conference, where Dr. Jill Biden, Chelsea Clinton, and Halle Berry will speak on the future of women's health, we’re reminded of the critical role heart health plays in women’s lives. Heart disease continues to be the leading cause of death for women. At Systole Health, we’re addressing this over-looked issue by providing scalable group virtual care focused on proactive prevention through lifestyle change and comprehensive management of heart disease risk factors. Our goal is to expand access to care and empower women to take control of their heart health. If you’re attending HLTH, our founders Dr. Simin Gharib Lee and Lauren McConnell would love to connect and discuss how our innovative model is making a difference. Check out our (new and improved!) site at www.systolehealth.com to learn more. #HLTH2024 #WomensHealth #HeartHealth #VirtualCare
