E50: Tennr is automating the front office! "10 becomes 2" is the new mantra for healthcare staffing and decades overdue. Ray Mathew explains the value solution with a big wall behind him that says "If we say AI, you get $10". Exactly! The only vendor at that show bucking the trend. Those pitching AI are too often selling BS. Those DOING AI have it hidden behind the scenes and don't have to throw out magical terms to impress you. Good software just works - automagically.

E49: If it smells like BS and looks like BS, it may be POSING as AI. Every provider, clinician and executive in healthcare should watch and share this week as Joshua Miller tells you what to ask vendors selling "Fake AI Software", how to validate "Real AI Tools" and when to call BS and walk away from that persuasive sales rep. Comment below to fuel this discussion so others don't get duped. Meet Gradient Health

E48: Money talks and BS AI walks. Pay attention founders because this week Abinav Sankar from Sopris Capital gives us a rare glimpse into what flies and what dies with investors. A pretty pitch deck and fast talk are NOT gonna cut it so sit up and take notes founders!

E47: 3000+ startups applied. 11 were selected to participate. This week, meet my Top 4 graduate picks from the Dec 2024 Techstars Physical Health Fort Worth Accelerator: Nikhil Madan - FluteSpace, Tom Griffiths - Gale HSA Pay (Techstars 24), Luis Pierpauli - Gisens Biotech, and Daniel Yeboah - Revella Health. If you seed early stage startups, don't wait to book 30 minutes with each and hear a pitch.- Merry Christmas

E46: This week meet SHAI RCM: "Smart Humans, Artificial Intelligence" is their tag line and Bruce Schwack is ready to give you a POC and prove about 50% average labor savings, plus 15% improved revenue capture. I love vendors who can produce statistics and evidence, then back it up!

E45: 9000+ nurses with 3-7 years experience, ready to accept permanent jobs anywhere in the U.S.?! Lalit Pattanaik, CEO of Global Nurse Force floored me with their statistics and results at the Becker's CEO Roundup in Chicago. If you're understaffed and not using this resource, fire your entire HR department today.

E44: This week, Eric Snyder from the Wilmot Cancer Institute explains how he called BS on all the SaaS vendors selling half baked solutions into healthcare, built his own internal team, and developed a complete solution that the internal staff embraced and love. The result? They're saving millions of dollars per year vs using SaaS subscriptions and won the Galien Award, which is the Nobel Prize equivalent for healthcare. Expect this trend to continue as more people from other industries enter healthcare, bringing practical thinking and logical solutions to solve problems that have been deliberately over complicated in the past.

E43: Remember the old days when doctors used to spend 1-2 hours each day on paperwork, notes, prescriptions and other documents? (If you're still doing this, don't admit it to anyone!) This week Arpit Rao, MD shares how Ankr Health has eliminated that nonsense so call them and get your life back!

E42: Ketamine and Magic Mushrooms to treat mental health patients?! Sherry Rais shocked me when she explained how she is driving LEGAL access to this controversial therapy but her positive results blew me away. The statistics are irrefutable and this points to much broader access across the country in the future. For tens of millions of Americans suffering from mental health issues, Enthea offers transformative hope. Give this woman some major thumbs up!
