  • Summary

  • You built the tech. You raised the funds.But your patient outcomes? Still inconsistent.What if the real problem isn't your product… it's your patient handoff?In this episode, Dr. Colin Banas and I unpack why even the best clinical tools fail if you don’t solve for the “voltage drop” in care transitions.Those invisible gaps lead to readmissions, poor medication adherence, and missed outcomes.Because nothing is more frustrating than knowing your solution works—and watching patients fall through the cracks anyway.Here’s what you’ll learn in this conversation:💠Why interoperability is your secret moat (and how 270+ EHR integrations helped DrFirst dominate)💠The #1 reason patients don’t fill prescriptions—and how SMS nudges solve it💠What a 10% adherence bump can really do for outcomes (and investor confidence)💠How to build a joyous experience for clinicians and patients alike💠Why sustainability > novelty when it comes to scaling HealthTech solutions🎙️ Founders, let’s turn your traction into transformation.
