Too often, healthcare follows a reactive cycle of identifying symptoms and treating illnesses after they occur. But this approach simply isn’t sufficient anymore. Modern healthcare systems need to start anticipating medical issues, identifying risk earlier, recognizing patterns sooner, and helping clinicians intervene before conditions become more serious. Health IT leaders have a unique…
There is a particular kind of confidence that comes with building something from nothing. You learn to push through fatigue, to treat sleep as negotiable, and to read your own exhaustion as proof that you are finally working hard enough. For a while it works. The body absorbs the strain quietly, the results on the ... Read more The post The Warning Every High Performer Hopes to Avoid appeared…
Two people can be born on the same day and be very different ages — not in years, but in biology. One might have the arteries, metabolism and immune resilience of someone a decade younger; the other, a decade older. The number on the birthday cake is fixed. The age of the body underneath it ...

Sale-leasebacks involving healthcare real estate – which are specialized commercial properties such as hospitals, clinics, and medical office buildings – can be a powerful tool for healthcare organizations. When properly structured, these transactions can provide healthcare organizations with much-needed financial flexibility and real estate investment firms with attractive assets, often resulting…
Healthcare already has more knowledge than most people can realistically navigate. Research papers, genomic databases, clinical guidelines, public health dashboards, internal records, metadata systems, and regulatory guidance all contain valuable information.

Most conversations about drug affordability assume a payer sits somewhere in the transaction. There is a category of medicine where none does. A drug can carry full FDA approval, sit behind a prescription requirement, and still be classified as cosmetic by essentially every commercial plan, which means the patient pays one hundred percent of the ...

For physicians who have spent decades building a medical practice, retirement can feel like the natural point to begin thinking about what happens to the business. By then, however, some of the most important decisions affecting a practice’s value have already been made. “One of the biggest misconceptions I see is that exit planning begins ...

Healthcare administration has always involved complexity, but the volume of data, transactions and regulatory requirements now moving through health plans and provider organizations is exposing the limitations of older technology. Insurers, third-party administrators (TPAs) and provider networks increasingly need systems that connect claims, enrollment, billing and provider data rather than…
More than 350,000 nurse practitioners now practice in the United States, and in the majority of states, each of them who runs or joins an independent practice must maintain a collaboration or supervision arrangement with a physician. It’s a mandatory compliance cost, it’s recurring, and until now, almost nobody could tell you what it should ... Read more The post Collaborating Physician Cost:…
Unsplash Healthcare hiring carries a quiet bias that never shows up in a job posting: managers lean toward candidates with serious athletic backgrounds. That’s not sentimentality, but rather pattern recognition. Clinical environments reward a particular psychological profile, and competitive sport produces that profile more reliably than almost any other experience. Christopher Podlin belongs to…
Women’s health research has long been underfunded and understudied. Few conditions illustrate that gap better than endometriosis, a disease that affects roughly one in ten women of reproductive age yet still takes years, on average, to diagnose. A rising researcher at Arizona State University is working to change that, and this spring the scientific community ... Read more The post Flinn Scholar…
The FDA is already reviewing with AI. Most device makers’ evidence wasn’t built for that. Enlil’s four-layer architecture grounds AI in a unified system of record, so every AI-assisted answer and agent action traces back to controlled records, permissions, and human approval. Enlil, Inc., the AI-powered development traceability platform built for medical device and life ... Read more The post…
