Provider's Edge | Where health leaders and innovators learn how to scale smarter, lead stronger, and create lasting impact

Your company is growing. Revenue is coming in. The team is getting bigger. So why does the business still feel like it is burning through cash? In this episode, Sabrina Runbeck sits down with Ibrahim Ashmawey, Founder of Golden Profit Group To unpack the financial blind spots that quietly follow HealthTech companies as they grow. They discuss why scaling cannot repair weak margins, how incomplete cost calculations distort pricing And why a minimum viable product does not always prove that customers will pay.  Ibrahim also explains how unnecessary staffing, duplicate technology, and unclear financial assumptions can make a growing company less sustainable, not more. Listen now and discover how to strengthen your financial foundation before growth turns a small inefficiency into a much larger problem.

Everyone wants to talk about innovation in healthcare. Very few want to talk about adoption. Because building a solution is exciting. Getting patients to actually use it… Getting clinicians to trust it… Getting health systems to keep it... That is where the real work begins. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, I sat down with 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐃𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐨𝐧, CEO of Ovatient, to unpack what it really takes to scale virtual care in a way that improves outcomes, builds trust, and keeps patients connected instead of lost in fragmented systems.

All under one ecosystem. That is how sustainable growth happens in healthcare.

Some founders won’t like this, but it needs to be said. We keep talking about “innovation” in healthcare. More apps. More tools. More features. But for families, especially those with children who have complex healthcare needs, it still feels broken. They’re juggling specialists. Schools. Care plans. Systems that don’t talk to each other. And no one is actually owning the full journey. In this episode, I sat down with Chief Medical Officer of Imagine Pediatrics, Trish Hayes at HLTH to talk about what it really takes to support children with complex needs, and why pediatric healthcare is still one of the most underserved areas in health tech. What stood out to me wasn’t just the technology. It was the responsibility. Because when you’re building in healthcare, you’re not just creating a product, you’re stepping into someone’s life. Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode: ✅ Why pediatrics is still one of the biggest gaps in health tech and what founders are missing ✅ The real reason families struggle (hint: it’s not lack of care, it’s lack of coordination) ✅ How a “wraparound care model” is changing outcomes for children with complex conditions ✅ What it actually looks like to deliver medical, behavioral, and social care together ✅ Why proactive care (not reactive care) is the future and how technology enables it ✅ The truth about scaling in healthcare: why hiring the right people matters more than building more tech ✅ How digital platforms can safely engage both caregivers and children before they turn to unreliable sources Related Episodes You’ll Love The Digital Painkiller: What Every Healthcare Tech Founder Should Know - Focuses on how digital health technologies (including virtual solutions) can expand access to care and integrate into real-world care models 👉 Listen on Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-digital-painkiller-what-every-healthcare-tech/id1853924954?i=1000737299449  Why Growing Teams Lose Talent Even When They Pay Well - Explores how healthcare founders scale teams while still supporting real patient needs and preventative care. 👉 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3d38krBKVscRFVww5toZc3?si=846e3ba729f3476f  Why Investors Don’t Trust Your Numbers and How to Fix It - Focuses on the trust gap between healthcare innovation and scaling (especially financial clarity and structure). 👉 Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/0mn3J5KqVtg  Want help figuring out your first C-suite hire?

Most founders assume grants are luck, bureaucracy, or a distraction. They’re wrong. In this episode, I sat down with Danielle Corbett, a grants expert who’s helped founders secure millions in non-dilutive capital, to unpack what grants really test—and why the same skills that win grants are the ones investors and customers reward too. This conversation isn’t about chasing money. It’s about clarity, alignment, and execution. If you’re serious about scaling without unnecessary dilution, this one will land. In this episode, you’ll learn: ✅ Why grants aren’t “free money”—and what they actually require from founders ✅ How niche clarity dramatically increases your funding odds ✅ The biggest mistake founders make when applying for grants (and how to avoid it) ✅ How impact storytelling influences grants, investors, and buyers the same way ✅ Why reading instructions is a leadership skill—not a detail ✅ How to evaluate the true ROI of time spent on non-dilutive capital Guest Spotlight Danielle Corbett Founder & Grants Strategist Danielle helps mission-driven founders secure non-dilutive funding without burning out or wasting cycles—and shows them how to turn clarity into capital.

Most founders think they need more marketing. More conferences. More ads. More visibility. But the real problem? Most companies still can’t clearly explain what they do. In this episode, I sat down with Saul Marquez, founder of Outcomes Rocket, to break down a simple framework founders can use to turn marketing chaos into a clear go-to-market strategy. We also discuss why Account-Based Marketing (ABM) is one of the highest ROI strategies in healthcare and why the right relationship can change the trajectory of your company. In this episode, you’ll learn: ✅ Why founders get overwhelmed by too many marketing tactics ✅ The real reason most healthcare marketing fails (hint: messaging clarity) ✅ The difference between Owned, Earned, and Paid marketing channels ✅ Why you should validate messaging before spending money on ads ✅ How Account-Based Marketing (ABM) helps close high-value healthcare deals ✅ Simple ways founders can build repeatable marketing systems Related Episodes You’ll Love How Smart Founders Raise Capital Without a Final Product  - This conversation explores how founders build credibility, ecosystem relationships, and investor trust—even before they have a finished product—highlighting how strategic positioning and messaging often matter more than visibility alone.

Building in healthcare is never easy, but building biotech, at 23, in women’s health? That’s a different level of resilience. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, Sabrina sits down with Mehek Bapna, an NIH-funded clinical researcher and women’s health founder who is rethinking what contraception could look like for the next generation. This conversation goes far beyond science. It’s about long timelines, credibility, tradeoffs, and how founders stay grounded when the path ahead is anything but predictable. If you’ve ever questioned whether the long road is worth it, this episode is for you. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why lived experience can be a strategic advantage—not a liability—in healthcare innovation ✅ How founders decide to take on long regulatory runways (and stay sane doing it) ✅ What current market signals are telling us about dissatisfaction with existing women’s health solutions ✅ How to think about choice, tradeoffs, and real-world adoption, not just clinical success ✅ Why resilience isn’t about pushing harder—it’s about building the right foundation and team ✅ Lessons from pitch competitions, losses, and refining your message when investors only give you minutes Related Episodes You’ll Love How Do the Best FemTech Startup Pitches Win Investors? - Six women founders delivered real 2-minute pitches and demonstrated how to communicate regulatory strategy, traction, and investor-ready positioning essential if you’re pitching long-lead biotech solutions. 👉 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-do-the-best-femtech-startup-pitches-win-investors/id1853924954?i=1000737299642 Why Founders Fail When They Ignore This - Focuses on founder sustainability and why alignment and intentional leadership matter — a foundational lesson for founders navigating long runways and credibility deficits. 👉 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/5EU1BrCt5k4gTcDGUMdEUi?si=8931ceef056943d3 How to Build AI Clinicians Trust and Teams Stick - Explores how founders earn clinical trust and build solutions that fit complex workflows — mirroring the credibility and adoption challenges Mehek discussed. 👉 YouTube: https://youtu.be/99UVT3UxZO8  Want help figuring out your first C-suite hire?

Most founders think fundraising is about volume—more decks, more meetings, more follow-ups. It’s not. In this episode, Sabrina sits down with Keara Sauber, a seasoned femtech CEO, board member, and venture investor who has helped raise and deploy hundreds of millions of dollars, to discuss why so many founders are unknowingly disqualifying themselves before investors ever lean in. This is a candid, behind-the-scenes conversation about what investors actually look for, and why clarity, structure, and leadership alignment matter more than hype. If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still not getting traction, this episode will reframe how you approach capital—fast. In this episode, you’ll learn:Why sending more pitch decks often creates less investor interest What investors filter for in the first 30 seconds and why most founders miss it How brand, positioning, and storytelling directly impact fundability The three leadership roles every scalable company must have and what happens when one is missing Why unrealistic projections erode trust faster than slow growth How capital readiness is about discipline, not desperation Related Episodes You’ll Love Who Are the Founders That Win Investor Trust Fast? - Three active investors reveal the exact green flags that make them lean in and the subtle red flags that make them say “no” before you even finish your deck.

Most founders don’t stall because their idea isn’t good. They stall because they wait too long to stop doing everything themselves. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, I sat down with Joe McClung, an experienced executive and strategic operator, to talk about the real cost of being the smartest person in the room and why the right “who” can change the entire trajectory of a company. We unpack what actually happens behind the scenes when founders delay hiring, make rushed executive decisions, or believe hustle will carry them through the next stage of growth. This isn’t theory. This is what shows up in missed raises, delayed launches, and burned-out leadership teams. 🎯 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:Why founders often become the single point of failure without realizing it How the right hire can compress timelines by months, not weeks The hidden cost of bad hires—and why it’s rarely just financial Why “we’ll fix it after the raise” is one of the most dangerous founder mindsets How clarity in roles and expectations outperforms charisma every time When leadership needs to shift from hustle to intentional design Related Episodes You’ll Love Busy or Scaling?

Most founders don’t fail because their product is bad. They fail because they said yes to the wrong money. In this episode of Health Tech Growth, I sat down with Nathaan Demers, Principal Investor at HopeLab, to talk about what’s really happening behind closed doors in today’s fundraising market—and what founders need to stop doing if they want to build companies that actually last. This wasn’t a “how to pitch better” conversation. It was a real one about alignment, transparency, and why realistic growth is not playing small. In this episode, you’ll learn:Why investor expectations have shifted and how founders should adapt without overpromising How chasing misaligned capital quietly erodes trust, culture, and mission What “realistic pipelines” actually look like in healthcare (and why optimism alone backfires) Why saying no to the wrong investor is sometimes the most strategic move How lived experience, diversity, and equity lead to stronger products and better outcomes Why resilience and self-empathy matter more than speed in today’s funding climate Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Investors Don’t Trust Your Numbers and How to Fix It - Emily breaks down why vague financials and unclear revenue structures stunt growth and investor confidence—and how founders can become more fundable by driving visibility and clarity into their numbers. 👉 Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/why-investors-dont-trust-your-numbers-and-how-to-fix/id1520028468?i=1000746224264   Why Do So Many HealthTech Startups Stall After Early Traction - Dirk unpacks the unseen forces that halt startup momentum—even with real demand—emphasizing patience, leadership evolution, and systemic understanding in capital-intensive healthcare sectors. 👉 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/3zkUrBRxD0FDGgoemKgFKr?si=ca4e6119c2824b7e  Why Sports & Health Tech Founders Miss Their Next Round - Thomas reveals what separates startups that secure venture funding from those that don’t—highlighting team readiness, scalability criteria, and strategic alignment with investor expectations. 👉 YouTube: https://youtu.be/cFPHf-qNvuc  Want help figuring out your first C-suite hire?

Let’s be real—founders don’t get passed over because their startup isn’t good enough. They get passed over because they’re forgettable. In this episode, I sat down with bestselling author and influence strategist Christian Hansen, founder of TheChristianHansen.com and TopCollegeGuru.com, and we exposed one of the biggest traps founders fall into: thinking their skills speak for themselves. They don’t. But with the right language, perception shift, and brain-based strategy, you can stand out and win the “yes” before you even leave the room. In this episode, you’ll discover: 🔶 Why trying to “connect” over common interests can backfire 🔶 The brain science behind how people make decisions (hint: it’s emotional, not logical) 🔶 How to shift your language so investors and partners perceive you as strategic 🔶 Why being seen as a thinker is 50x more valuable than being seen as skilled 🔶 How to build a founding team with the right balance of vision, action, and structure 🔶 The five levels of value that drive meaningful partnerships and sustainable growth Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Investors Don’t “Get” Your Pitch — And How to Fix It - A deep, founder-focused breakdown of why even credible teams and solutions fail to land investor interest, and practical ways to communicate value clearly and compellingly.

🎙️ Your Tech Isn’t Failing, Your Leadership Readiness Is Most founders think fundraising is about traction. Investors know it’s about translation. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, I sat down with Cheryl Beninga, Co-Founder of Fourth Wave, to unpack what really determines whether capital moves or stalls, especially for women founders in healthtech. We talked candidly about why brilliant ideas don’t get funded, how leadership gaps quietly derail raises, and what investors are actually listening for when you walk into the room. This conversation is essential if you’ve ever felt like: You’re doing “all the right things” but capital is still slow Investors don’t fully get what you’re building You’re growing a company faster than you’re growing yourself In this episode, you’ll learn:Why investors prioritize team strength over technology strength The leadership signals that matter more than traction in early-stage funding How women founders are under-supported—not underqualified What “coachability” really means from an investor’s lens How to translate complex science into fundable business language Why founder growth must outpace company growth to scale sustainably Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Do So Many HealthTech Startups Stall After Early Traction - A grounded conversation exploring why early traction doesn’t always translate into long‑term growth focusing on leadership evolution, scalability challenges, and what investors really look for beyond technology alone.

“𝘎𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘷𝘪𝘳𝘢𝘭” feels like progress. But most founders confuse attention with traction. Nathan said it best— 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗶𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝘁. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝗽𝗲𝗼𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝘆’𝘀 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆. Yet I keep hearing the same story. “We had a TikTok blow-up.” or “We got thousands of likes.” Silence when I ask, “𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙩𝙚𝙙?” In healthtech especially, virality can actually hurt you. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, I sat down with product strategist and media builder Nathan Bowser, founder of Awesome Future, to break down one of the biggest traps founders fall into—confusing attention with traction. We talked about why chasing likes can quietly stall your company, how category leadership is actually built, and why awards, pitch competitions, and message discipline matter far more than trending sounds. If you’ve ever thought, “We’re getting visibility… so why isn’t this converting?” — this conversation is for you. In this episode, you’ll learn:Why virality is usually a distraction—not a go-to-market strategy How to identify the 10–20 relationships that actually move your company forward What investors and enterprise buyers look for before they write checks How pitch competitions and awards accelerate trust when data is still early Why founders must get comfortable being seen, heard, and understood on video How clarity in your message creates category leadership faster than noise ever could Related Episodes You’ll Love Who Do Investors Trust More — Heroes or Guides - A deep look at how founders should shape their pitch and narrative to earn trust and warm investor support focusing on clarity, positioning, and meaningful alignment rather than noise.

You don’t lose great employees because of salary alone. You lose them when the system stops supporting real life. In this episode, I sat down with Faith Rose, a healthcare and benefits strategist with 20+ years of experience helping organizations improve employee wellness and financial stability without new spending or insurance disruption. We discussed how founders and operators unknowingly leak cash through payroll taxes, why healthcare benefits are usually treated in silos, and how preventative care can actually become a retention and resilience strategy. This conversation is for leaders who are scaling fast and don’t want their people, culture, or margins to crack under pressure. What You’ll Learn in This EpisodeWhy financial resilience isn’t about cutting costs—it’s about reallocating what’s already leaving your system How payroll taxes can be redirected into preventative wellness benefits with zero net cost The hidden reason many employee benefits go unused (and how to fix it) Why access without affordability isn’t real healthcare How early-stage companies can compete for talent before they hit 50 or 100 employees The ripple effect that preventative care has on productivity, culture, and retention Featured Guest Faith Rose Healthcare & Benefits Strategist Helping organizations implement Mission Aligned Benefits—a compliant, payroll-based solution that improves employee and family wellness while strengthening company cash flow.

Most founders think fundraising is harder because the market changed. That’s not the full story. In this episode, I sat down with Claire Smith to unpack what investors are actually listening for right now—and why clarity, not confidence, is the signal that still moves capital. If you’ve been told to “just keep pitching” while checks feel slower, this conversation will help you see where the real disconnect is—and how to fix it. In this episode, you’ll learn:Why capital hasn’t disappeared—but tolerance for vagueness has What investors really mean when they say they’re backing “strong operators” How unclear use-of-funds quietly kills trust (even with traction) Why bridge rounds without a value inflection point erode momentum What differentiates founders who raise consistently from those who stall Why women-led founders don’t need permission—they need proximity and networks This isn’t about perfect decks or louder pitches. It’s about showing investors how you think, decide, and deploy capital—clearly. 🎧 Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Most HealthTech Solutions Fail: The Hidden Gap Between Innovation and Implementation – This episode digs into the common pitfalls that healthtech founders face (particularly in scaling and market fit).

You’ll hear how we both connected around the real-world challenges founders face, especially those underrepresented in venture conversations.  It’s a vulnerable and powerful dialogue on being intentional about who’s in your corner.

Why do so many healthtech startups gain early traction… and then suddenly stall? It’s usually not the tech. It’s not the vision. And it’s rarely a lack of effort. In this episode, I’m joined by Dirk Schapeler, President of Niterra Ventures (https://www.niterraventures.com/) — the venture arm of Niterra, a $5B Japanese technology company operating globally across automotive, medical, and industrial products. Dirk also serves as a board member at Arcondis Group, where he supports innovation strategy and global expansion. At HLTH, I sat down with Dirk to talk about what actually determines whether a healthcare company survives long enough to matter—especially in regulated, capital-intensive spaces like medtech, remote care, and diagnostics. If you’ve proven demand but growth feels harder than it should, this conversation is for you. This wasn’t a hype-filled conversation about AI buzzwords. It was a grounded discussion about patience, leadership evolution, and why healthcare scale is less about speed and more about systems, people, and partnerships. If you’re building in healthcare and wondering why momentum feels harder than it should… this episode will hit close to home. 🎧 In this episode, you’ll learn:Why some of the most powerful healthcare innovations come from outside healthcareWhat investors really look for when regulation and reimbursement are unavoidableHow to think about unmet need vs. “interesting” ideas that won’t scaleWhy leadership evolution, not just vision, determines whether companies break through growth ceilingsHow combining technologies and partners creates defensibility most startups missWhat founders underestimate about human capital in regulated markets Episode Timeline: 00:00:00 – Why health tech stalls after early wins 00:04:04 – Why Japanese innovation looks at the U.S. market 00:07:02 – Cold plasma and the future of wound care 00:09:40 – Why wound care hasn’t changed in decades 00:11:27 – Combining therapies, not selling tools 00:13:05 – What investors really look for 00:15:31 – Patience, quality, and long-term thinking 00:18:08 – When founders hit the scaling wall 00:21:09 – Power of global collaboration 00:25:00 – The hard truth about regulated healthcare 00:27:03 – How to connect with Niterra Ventures 🎧 Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Most HealthTech Solutions Fail: The Hidden Gap Between Innovation and Implementation – This episode digs into the common pitfalls that healthtech founders face (particularly in scaling and market fit).

How do top investors decide where to put their millions? Hint: It’s not just about your pitch deck. Raising capital isn’t just about vision—it’s about proving you have the team, traction, and exit potential to make your venture worth the risk. Thomas Rudy has reviewed over 1,500 startups a year, and in this episode, he reveals what separates the YESes from the NOs. If you've ever felt unsure whether you’re “venture-backable,” this episode will help you reflect on the gaps holding you back—and give you the clarity to fill them with confidence. You’ll walk away knowing exactly how to position your company for investor alignment—from defining scalability the VC way, to building a team that de-risks execution, to reverse engineering your exit potential. Most startups VCs pass on aren’t bad—they just aren’t venture-scale. In this candid conversation, you’ll learn how to be brutally honest about where your startup stands and what to do next. What You’ll Learn in This Episode:✔️ What VCs really mean when they say “you’re not scalable yet” ✔️ The critical difference between strategic board titles vs execution-ready teams ✔️ Why having “80% of funds go to tech” isn’t enough—and what to say instead ✔️ How to reverse engineer your exit using revenue, EBITDA, and industry multiples ✔️ Why some founders should skip VC entirely—and still win big Related Episodes You’ll Love Why Most HealthTech Solutions Fail: The Hidden Gap Between Innovation and Implementation – This episode digs into the common pitfalls that healthtech founders face (particularly in scaling and market fit).

If you’re a femtech founder building in silence and still waiting for real traction—this episode is your wake-up call. The funding isn’t always the problem. It’s the missing ecosystem. Dr. MyPhuong Le went from struggling in academic research to co-founding a manufacturing company and now leads a thriving innovation hub in San Diego. Together, we unpacked what early-stage founders really need beyond funding: role clarity, uncomfortable conversations, and teams that align in mission—not just skillsets. You’ll hear how women founders in health tech are hitting investor roadblocks—not because of poor solutions, but because too many rooms still treat menstrual health and menopause like taboo topics. MyPhuong shares how breaking that silence can shift capital, culture, and credibility. In this episode, you’ll learn: 🔶 Why building alone is one of the most dangerous things founders can do 🔶 What roles truly matter in your founding team (hint: it’s not just tech) 🔶 How femtech founders can win support—even when investors are uncomfortable 🔶 Why diverse voices in health tech are finally gaining traction, and how to be part of it 🔶 A 3-part co-founder framework to scale without burning out Dr. MyPhuong Le will be hosting the Global Innovation in Women’s Health Pitch Showcase 2026, with Sabrina Runbeck serving as a judge—especially for founders heading to JPM 2026.

Candid insights. Tactical advice. Real talk on what investors actually look for. Too many brilliant women-led startups struggle to get noticed by VCs. It’s not always about your product—it’s about how you position, present, and prove your traction. In this episode, I sat down with Aparajita Chauhan, investor at Volition Capital, to talk about what makes a founder investable—before they even start raising. From decoding due diligence to how your leadership team communicates under pressure, we unpacked what founders need to know to build trust and stay on an investor’s radar. What You’ll Learn: ✅ What investors like Aparajita actually want to see before a pitch deck ✅ The #1 thing that gets founders remembered (hint: it’s not flashy branding) ✅ How to talk about your CAC, KPIs, and ROI with clarity—not guesswork ✅ Why founder-team alignment can make or break your deal ✅ How to build relationships with investors early—even if you're not raising yet ✅ Where women founders still face the biggest barriers (and how to navigate them) Want to Keep Growing Without Losing Clients?

Let’s be honest—founders are burned out from cold outreach and investor ghosting. You’ve built something real, but the right people just aren’t seeing it.

You’re about to sit in on a private investor roundtable from Venture Vitality, a global gathering hosted by PulsePoint Path and our venture partners. In the room: seed and Series A investors, Medicaid fund managers, consumer health VCs, quantum & AI fund builders, FDA-cleared founders, LATAM commercialization experts, and healthcare operators with international scale.

AI won't win in healthcare unless clinicians—and patients—trust it. In this episode, I sat down with healthcare innovation expert Linda Macomber, who’s been at the forefront of digital transformation for over 35 years, leading initiatives with Kaiser, IBM, and the VA.  Her message is clear: your tech isn’t the hero—the human insight behind it is.

You built your company to create impact—but are you actually protecting what you’re building? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. David Mandell, an attorney, MBA, and wealth strategist who’s spent over 30 years helping physicians and healthcare founders protect and grow their wealth. We unpack what financial intelligence really means for innovators—why it’s not about greed, but freedom—and how founders can stop reacting to money problems and start directing their growth with confidence. Here’s what you’ll take away from this conversation: Wealth is freedom, not just funds. Learn how founders can redefine wealth as freedom of time, choice, and impact. Build your financial “specialty team.” Why every founder needs aligned advisors—a CPA, attorney, and strategist—to scale safely. Protect your downside first. Risk is inevitable, but loss isn’t—when you structure your assets and decisions intentionally. Delegate awareness, not responsibility.

You don’t need another full-time exec—you need someone who knows how to build the foundation for scale. In this episode, we expose one of the most expensive mistakes health tech founders and system leaders make: hiring too fast, too early, and in the wrong order.

Before you hire, listen in. We break down how to sequence leadership, how to spot unqualified fractional hires, and how to align your team before you waste $150K+ on the wrong fit.

I used to believe that telling my story in full was enough to inspire trust—and capital. But the truth is, how you position your story in a pitch can be the difference between another “we’ll pass” and your next funding round. In this episode, we discussed what it really means to be the guide in your pitch, how to turn cold intros into warm investor relationships, and how to align with capital that actually gets your mission. If you’re pitching, fundraising, or simply trying to get people to rally behind your vision, this is your map. Take notes. Share it with your team. Then tighten your narrative to make everyone around you a hero. There’s nothing fluffy about storytelling—it’s a core investor strategy.  Your pitch should connect purpose, people, and proof.

When you’re building a healthcare startup, there’s one resource you can’t afford to waste—your people.  Too often, founders lose top talent because they rely on quick fixes instead of designing compensation and incentives that keep employees engaged for the long haul. In this episode, I sat down with Scott Trumpolt, a compensation consultant with 30+ years of HR experience, including 12 years advising startups and healthcare companies.  We explore how founders can balance equity vs. pay, stay transparent with teams, and build incentive structures that attract talent, retain high performers, and strengthen investor confidence, all while making people feel valued and aligned with the mission.

When your frontline workers are burnt out, and your admin team is buried in spreadsheets… It’s not a staffing issue. It’s a system issue. In this episode of Provider’s Edge, I sat down with Adam Lewis, co-founder and CEO of Apploi, to unpack why long-term care organizations can’t solve workforce burnout by hiring alone—and what it actually takes to retain the people doing the hardest jobs in healthcare. We dive into why staff recognition isn't a bonus—it’s a lifeline.

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Ronn Berrol to unpack how a single hospital pilot became a 21-site success story—not by replacing Epic, but by solving the one thing it couldn’t do well: surfacing the right data, at the right time, for the right patients. We dove deep into how high-risk patients can be flagged before they escalate into crisis, and how real-time data sharing across emergency departments can dramatically reduce admissions and improve flow. And the secret ingredient? A clinician champion who didn't wait for a committee to say yes—he created momentum from the floor up. 1. Don’t Confuse Your EHR with Strategic Insight Tools  Dr. Ronn shared how even the best EMRs like Epic can bury clinicians in data. What made a difference wasn’t more information—but surfacing the right information at the right time for high-risk patients. 2. Champions Create Change, Not Systems Alone  Technology alone didn’t earn trust. It was the clinicians—like Ronn—who piloted it, saw value, and advocated upward that drove full-scale adoption across 21 hospitals. 3. Pilot First, Scale Fast—But Only When It Works  Many hospitals hesitate to adopt new solutions unless a clear ROI is shown early. That’s why the original pilot funded by a hospital foundation was a turning point. 4. Care Coordination Starts Before the Crisis  With tools that flag social risks, housing instability, or medication lapses—this platform helped avoid ER boarding by addressing patients’ needs before they spiraled. 5. Modern Innovation Means Cross-Hospital Collaboration  Emergency departments often operate in silos. But the real breakthrough came from sharing real-time patient data across unaffiliated EDs. 6. You Don’t Need to Solve Everything—Just What Others Miss  What made this solution a win wasn’t trying to replace Epic—it filled the critical gap Epic couldn’t: surfacing actionable insights, fast. Have you ever been the “first yes” that helped an innovation take off in your org? Episode Timeline:  00:01:56 - How piloting EDO began through visibility gaps in local EDs. 00:03:51 - Clinical inefficiencies and the importance of care pathways. 00:05:50 - Workflow improvements reduced boarding and increased capacity. 00:07:53 - How a charitable foundation funded the pilot despite cost concerns. 00:09:37 - Dr. Ron contrasts EDO vs Epic and explains its push-not-pull advantage. 00:11:17 - EDO pushes key info in 30-45 seconds vs long EHR chart reviews. 00:13:42 - How EDO helps solve new CMS and system-wide goals. 00:17:26 - Dr. Ron expands on how lack of access causes overreliance on EDs. 00:21:48 - Key takeaway #1: EHR ≠ strategic insight tool. 00:22:17 - Key takeaway #2: Clinician champions drive change. 00:22:31 - Key takeaway #3: Pilot first, scale fast. 00:22:47 - Key takeaway #4: Coordinate care before crisis. 00:23:13 - Key takeaway #5: Share data across hospitals. 00:23:30 - Key takeaway #6: Fill the gap, don’t replace the system.

We keep saying we want value-based care. But why do most models still fall short? In this episode, I sat down with Hamad Husainy, a clinician-turned-HealthTech leader at PointClickCare, to explore the hidden reasons value-based systems collapse—and what it actually takes to build one that works. We unpacked why data timing, team collaboration, and cultural transformation—not just more tech—are essential to seamless care. Hamad brought real stories from the field and shared where most leaders miss the mark when scaling their care ecosystems. The question isn’t: do you have the data? It’s: are you using it at the right time, in the right hands, to prevent the wrong outcomes? If you’ve ever felt like your solution should drive better results but doesn't get traction, this is your inside look at what investors, payers, and care leaders want next. In this episode, you’ll learn: 🔹Why data delivery timing trumps data volume 🔹The ROI of interdisciplinary team workflows 🔹The cultural shifts needed to unlock true collaboration 🔹How to align payers and providers using shared data language 🔹The 4 stages of care evolution—and where we’re heading next Episode Timeline:  [00:01:56] - Hamad Husainy: From Clinician to Health Tech Leader at PointClickCare [00:03:21] - Integrating Data for Better, Timely Care Decisions [00:04:55] - Breaking Down Silos Across the Care Continuum [00:07:22] - Culture Shift: Redefining Roles and True Team Collaboration [00:12:04] - AI, Analytics, and Measuring ROI in Care Delivery [00:14:31] - Aligning Providers, Payers, and ACOs [00:15:54] - Hamad’s Three Wishes for Healthcare Transformation [00:21:11] - Six Takeaways for Making Value-Based Care Work Get In the Spotlight Are you a founder with a proven solution and paying users?

Ever handed off a patient with a thick discharge packet… only to get a call two days later that they’re back in the ER? That’s not just a clinical failure—it’s a system breakdown. In this episode, I sat down with Brian Drozdowicz from PointClickCare to talk about building tools that actually improve care transitions. Not just more data—but smarter data, delivered at the right time, to the right people. Whether you’re building the next big HealthTech platform or navigating value-based contracts, you’ve felt the friction. Data overload. Poor interoperability. Tools that no one actually uses. This conversation is your blueprint for bridging the gaps. Brian shares how PCC’s “PacMan” tool is powering better visibility across care settings—and how AI could finally summarize those 30-page discharge reports into meaningful next steps. If you’re building tools in care coordination, transitions, or VBC, listen in for how to align your product with real clinical flow—and avoid becoming another tool that gets ignored. What You’ll Learn:🔑 Why real interoperability is about usable data—not just access 🔑 How PointClickCare’s PacMan tool connects ACOs, hospitals, SNFs, and payers 🔑 How AI can streamline discharge planning to boost outcomes and efficiency 🔑 Where the biggest founder opportunities are in value-based care 🔑 What’s needed for faster adoption of AI and value-based care at scale Episode Timeline:  [00:01:33] - What is PointClickCare [00:03:59] - PAC Man: Connecting Hospitals, ACOs, and SNFs [00:08:56] - Fixing Discharge and Follow-Up Gaps [00:10:44] - From Data Overload to Actionable Insights [00:14:02] - EHR Interoperability in Action [00:17:05] - Brian’s Three Magic Wand Wishes [00:20:55] - Episode Recap and Key Takeaways Get In the Spotlight Are you a founder with a proven solution and paying users?

You'd think a founder who's already exited TWO companies, has partnerships with global giants like Siemens, and technology tracking 10 MILLION medical samples would have investors lined up around the block. You'd be wrong. In today's episode, I break down exactly what went wrong in Javier Cuello's pitch for H+Trace—his medical traceability platform that's solving a $500M problem in healthcare. His hook? Brilliant. "Every day in the U.S., the equivalent of a jumbo jet crashes from preventable medical errors." His credibility? Unquestionable. His results? Radio silence from investors. Here's the thing: Having the right ingredients doesn't guarantee the right recipe. Even the most accomplished founders can miss the mark when it comes to communicating their value. I walk you through the exact 2-minute framework that transforms technical brilliance into investor magnetism—and reveal the specific mistakes that cost Javier the attention his breakthrough solution deserves. This isn't just another pitch critique. It's a masterclass in why the best product doesn't always win, but the best COMMUNICATED product does.

What if the biggest blocker to your product’s success isn’t the tech—but the fear-filled culture it’s stepping into? That’s exactly what Varsha Chaugai discovered while building Evoke Health, a platform designed to digitize and streamline communication between long-term care facilities and families.  Despite building the platform in just five months, the real challenge wasn’t technical—it was cultural. In this episode, we uncover how founders can navigate the invisible resistance of guilt, shame, and outdated manual systems that dominate long-term care.  You’ll learn why transparency is often misunderstood as a threat, and how shifting the narrative to collaboration creates space for innovation to thrive.

Healthcare doesn’t end at the clinic—and Luke O’Brien of Brook.AI knows that better than most.  After navigating care for his father’s leukemia, Luke realized just how much support patients and caregivers need after leaving the doctor’s office.  In this episode, we unpack how Brook.AI built a wraparound solution combining remote monitoring, 24/7 clinical care teams, EHR integration, and operational support—all without adding weight to providers or clinics. Key Talking Points  ✅ The personal story behind Luke’s journey into healthtech ✅ Why patient compliance gaps are more about communication than tech ✅ How Brook.AI’s care teams work as an extension of health systems ✅ The pitfalls of piling more tech onto providers—and how to avoid them ✅ Brook’s "Remote Care as a Service" model explained ✅ Navigating integration with 400+ EHRs and different-sized clinics ✅ Chronic conditions they focus on: hypertension, diabetes, CHF, and more ✅ Aligning human capital with clinical mission for sustainable growth ✅ What founders should know about building buy-in from both patients and providers Episode Timeline: 00:01:57 - Luke’s personal story about caring for his father with leukemia 00:04:30 - Luke explains Brook.ai's solution for remote patient care 00:06:00 - Definition of "Remote Care as a Service" model 00:06:16 - Mid-episode sponsor message about HealthTechShowdown.com 00:09:48 - Data integration with existing healthcare platforms 00:12:00 - Strategies for patient and provider engagement 00:15:25 - Building an effective team and organizational structure 00:19:14 - Brook’s closing their Series B funding 00:21:00 - Sabrina’s seven key points from the conversation Notable Quotes "We don’t want to put more weight on the provider.

How does a company built on virtual second opinions become a system-wide impact engine?  By blending data, empathy, and results—not just tech. In this episode, we explored what it really means to close care gaps—without forcing health systems to adopt yet another "new thing." Scott explained how they plug into existing infrastructures, using a results-based approach that leads to treatment changes in 70% of cases and diagnosis corrections in 25%. From nurse care navigators to global partnerships, Scott breaks down how founders can scale with intention, how AI + white-glove service actually works, and why impact starts with understanding—not assumptions. I’ve worked in ORs where we knew—if that patient had gotten a diagnosis sooner, they might’ve lived. That’s the cost of inaccessible care. It’s not about more innovation; it’s about making the innovation reachable. What’s one part of your solution that adds friction instead of clarity?

SHOW ME THE MONEY? Not if you're a woman in HealthTech. Less than 2% of VC dollars go to women-led healthcare companies—and even fewer to women’s health solutions. I spoke with Mayra Hurtado, CEO of Prelude Health, who’s scaled her menopause testing startup internationally.  But like so many underrepresented founders, she’s still fighting for investor attention, burning time and energy trying to explain her impact to the wrong rooms. Here’s what most founders don’t hear enough: It’s not your pitch—it’s the positioning. And you don’t need to fix yourself—you need a GPS for a system that was never built for you. This episode is your wake-up call if: You’re stuck in the endless pitch cycleYou’ve got traction, but investors still don’t “get it”You’re overextended, doing everything, and seeing little progress Let’s stop asking for permission and start building stages designed for us. It’s not about working harder—it’s about aligning smarter.

What if your health tech solution is built on biased data, and you don’t even know it? On this episode, I sat down with Beverly Miner of Consensus Cloud Solutions live from the floor of VIVE to talk about one of the most overlooked drivers of healthcare inequity—unstructured data. From missed medications to tragic delays in care, we walk through what happens when critical patient information is locked in PDFs, never reaches the right provider, and gets left out of the systems we rely on to make decisions. You’ll hear what Beverly’s team is doing to: Eliminate the need for costly EHR overhauls with cloud fax + data extractionSolve real problems like discharge delays, referral breakdowns, and prior auth lagImprove clinical workflow without asking care teams to learn new tech or platformsAddress health equity by first solving tech equity in underserved markets One of Beverly’s own family members died waiting for a prior authorization. That’s what drives her. This episode isn’t about buzzwords—it’s about fixing the backend issues that block care from reaching people who need it most. If you’re a founder building in health tech, it’s time to stop creating tools that live in silos or pile more work on your end users. Ask: Is your tech actually making it easier to deliver care—or just easier to sell a demo? Key Talking Points:  🔑 Why “tech equity” is the prerequisite for true health equity 🔑 How unstructured data is quietly skewing analytics and care quality 🔑 What founders get wrong about interoperability and burnout 🔑 Why fixing backend bottlenecks is the best ROI you can build into your tech 🔑 The one workflow rule you must follow if you want adoption to stick Episode Timeline: 00:01:19 –  Beverly Miner from Consensus Cloud Solutions 00:04:37 – Tech equity as a key to health equity 00:08:17 – Call to founders: Build for integration, not just visibility 00:10:34 – Backend intelligence, not just dashboards 00:12:29 – Let clinicians practice: how data accuracy reduces burnout 00:14:56 – Magic wand wishes: Prior auth, burnout, and system cost 00:17:19 – Are we building functional or flashy tools in healthtech? 00:21:42 – What healthcare leaders can do right now to fix data problems 00:23:44 – Collaboration across roles: policy, scalability, and innovation 00:24:51 – Final reflection: Solving bias and access with smarter integration 00:25:36 – 7 Key takeaways from today’s episode Notable Quotes “Health equity has to equal tech equity. We need to make sure the technology and access to data is truly equitable—or we’re just widening the gap.” - Bevey Miner “Interoperability is talked about endlessly—but founders need to stop chasing buzzwords and start solving real workflow problems at the point of care.”  – Sabrina Runbeck Get In the Spotlight Are you a founder with a proven solution and paying users?

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.

This episode is your blueprint to break the cycle. I sat down with Shawna Smith to dissect a pattern I see all too often in HealthTech founders: visionary brilliance without the bridge to execution. We dug into the real reasons your strategy meetings stall, your marketing fizzles, and your partnerships fall flat—and how to fix it without burning yourself (or your team) out. — Where do you see the biggest breakdown in your organization—vision, strategy, or execution?

Is your healthcare tech solution experiencing high initial adoption but then watching patients drop off?  Discover why 70% of remote monitoring platforms fail after enrollment, and learn the critical case management component that could save your $2M+ company from becoming another statistic. In this episode of Health Tech Growth, we dive deep into the "first date" phenomenon in healthcare technology - that exciting initial user engagement that quickly fades without proper clinical integration.  Our expert guests reveal the missing link between technological innovation and sustainable patient adoption. What you'll learn: 🔑 Why patients disengage from remote monitoring systems after the initial excitement 🔑 The critical role nurses and case managers play in translating data into meaningful care interventions 🔑 How medication management failures lead to costly hospital readmissions 🔑 Why treating care plans as "living documents" transforms technology adoption 🔑 Strategies for seamlessly integrating your technology into clinical workflows 🔑 How to build a compelling ROI case for comprehensive case management integration 🔑 Future trends in healthcare technology adoption as tech-savvy generations age into healthcare consumers Most healthcare tech founders focus exclusively on their technology's capabilities - the sensors, data collection, algorithms - but technical innovation alone doesn't ensure adoption.  Without comprehensive clinical integration, even the most advanced solution will struggle to maintain engagement. This episode is essential listening for healthcare tech founders generating $2M+ in revenue or who have received $5M+ in funding but struggle with scaling patient engagement beyond initial enrollment. 🎙️ Listen to the full episode on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your favorite platform. Is your healthcare tech solution truly built around comprehensive care plans that clinicians will champion, or are you still trapped in the "first date" phase with your users?

Today, we covered the major key points of how to leverage building strategic partnerships and attract the right talents when you are in networking events and attending conferences.  In this episode, Lillian Pecache PA-C, at https://thecmespot.com/ shares:  Imposter syndrome affects even high-functioning people and can be caused by internalized beliefs and actions that hold us back. Take little steps to overcome self-imposed pressure. Start-ups need to network. Talking about your aspirations and views may lead to long-term connections and collaboration. To recruit top talent, we must be clear about our value offering and asks and understand others'. Develop purposeful harmony rather than balance to handle work, personal, and self-care needs. Before helping others, fill your cup. This includes knowing what makes you happy and making time for hobbies like running, hiking, or drinking coffee. We can improve as leaders and assist each other in healthcare by sharing information and resources with colleagues. Show Summary Lilian Pechache had a hard time finding time to look for the right CME conferences and relax after a long day of work. She wanted to save time, avoid getting too tired, and build a network for both her work and personal life. Lilian was able to create a website to help people find the right CMEs and make connections in just eight months from the time she had the idea. Even though she was shy, she forced herself to reach out to her network and make connections that would help her business grow. Lilian thinks that if she first fills her own cup, she can live a happy life and use her business to help other people do the same. How Can Medical Providers Save Time, Network, and Prevent Burnout? Continuing Medical Education (CME) travel can be hard, especially when it comes to figuring out the exact dates and places. This process can be made easier and more efficient with the help of AI. AI-based solutions can help quickly look at all the options, compare them, and find the best one for CME travel. This saves time that would have been spent researching and comparing locations and makes sure that the best possible place for CME travel is chosen. How Important It Is To Think Like An Entrepreneur? Establishing a business may be a big and scary undertaking, especially if you do not know how to proceed. The imposter syndrome is one of the most significant obstacles faced by many entrepreneurs. This phenomena can make it challenging to take chances, make decisions, and believe in one's talents. Imposter syndrome is a typical aspect of the business path and can be overcome with experience and self-awareness. This is a crucial fact to keep in mind. Entrepreneurs may overcome impostor syndrome and achieve success in their respective professions if they have the correct mentality.

Hey there, provider pro - do you truly know the importance of developing a healthy money mindset, not only in your personal life, but within your private practice as well? What about how to accurately and meaningfully decide what to charge for your services? Good news! We have those exact answers for you in this week’s episode of The Provider’s Edge.  Developing a money mindset is crucial to the success of not only your personal finances, but the growth of your private practice. How you handle your business’s money can literally make or break it.  The core of the money coming from your practice is what you charge patients for your services. Payments from patients and insurance are the backbone of your income and the financial catalyst that drives your practice forward. That is why knowing HOW to charge meaningfully and accurately is just as important as what you charge. There are key do’s and don’ts when it comes to choosing what to charge. Join us as we dive into these two key matters in this week’s episode of The Provider’s Edge podcast, where host Sabrina Runbeck interviews Lindsay Bryan-Podvin, author, speaker, and financial therapist at her own practice called Mind Money Balance.   Are you ready to discover how to develop a money mindset and how to meaningfully charge for the extreme value you provide your patients?

You can hire a qualified social media manager from ANYWHERE in the world to help with your outreach.  Network with practitioners OUTSIDE your niches.

Are you doing everything right technically in your practice, but still feel like you’re missing something? It could be that you’re disregarding the power of emotionally connecting with your patients. It’s time to learn how to make that emotional connection so that your patients are more likely to come back and refer you to others.  As health care professionals, we sometimes think that working long hours or the amount of letters that come after our name is what makes us great. However, there is much more to being a successful physician than that. How and why you do your job is what people will remember and connect with.  Join Lisa Pezik and me as we discuss the importance of the emotional connection, and the strategies you can implement now to better serve yourself, and those around you.  𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐬𝐮𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐩 𝐚𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝.

It’s time to learn how to create and maintain peak performance in your practice and in life.  As health care professionals, we are taught that working long hours and giving our all to everyone around us makes us productive.

Private practice owners and providers, do you feel out of alignment in a certain area of your life? Or do you feel like you are trying to please everyone else while running yourself ragged in the process? Time to dial things back and start spending your time on what you value most in life.  Scheduling your life according to what you value leaves you filled with purpose. There are seven core areas which you should be scheduling into your life - physical, financial, mental, spiritual, social, vocation, and family. How much time you spend on each category lies in what you value most in life. No category should also be neglected, or other areas will falter too.  If you feel like it’s time to start living more authentically within your values and spending time on what really matters in life, then please make sure you tune in to the Provider’s Edge podcast this week, when host Sabrina Runbeck interviews Emmanuel Anthony, a human behavior specialist, research writer, consultant, and teacher. You’ll learn how to purposefully make time for what matters most to you by identifying your values in life and intentionally scheduling them each day or week.  Join us  In this podcast, I interviewed Emmanuel Anthony, a human behavior specialist, research writer, consultant, teacher, and director of Quantum Equilibrium.

Attention, private practice owners! Are you so burned out, you’re starting to wonder if you should quit your career? First of all, don’t do that. Secondly, you’re not alone.  Over 122,000 physicians in 2022 left their jobs due to feeling stressed out and exhausted. While it would make sense to get rid of whatever is stressing you out (aka your career), the solution is actually deeper and more personal than that. You need to make real changes to look within and take care of yourself.  Burnout can actually change your brain structurally and understanding how that occurs is the key to reversing it.  Tune in to the Provider’s Edge podcast this week, where I interview Dr. Darlene Mayo, leader, speaker, coach, and breakthrough consultant. You will learn why yoga sessions and week-long vacations won’t fix your burnout and provide real solutions that will.  Dr. Mayo is a board-certified neurosurgeon and neuroscientist who deeply understands the electrical charges and chemistry of the brain. Due to her research, she is able to help her clients reach their breakthroughs with a combination of evidence-based science and inner wisdom.  Do you want to take your healthcare career to the next level and improve your quality of life?

Tune in for today’s podcast episode to discover how you can create an effective growth strategy for your practice using media, so you can extend your reach and step up as the expert!  If you’re a busy healthcare professional, you are familiar with how precious and limited your time is.

Is your to-do list getting longer and longer every day? Then, you definitely need to listen to today’s podcast episode!  Running a private practice takes a lot of time and energy to make sure everything is getting done. In addition to taking care of patients, you have to worry about your administrative tasks, technical support, customer service, sales, marketing and anything else you can name! That’s a lot. If you’re trying to run everything on your own, then eventually you’re going to run yourself and your private practice into the ground. I certainly don’t want that to happen to you and I know you don’t either.  As highly capable as you are, you are only one person. Even if you were to work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, you’re still not going to get everything done without getting help. Plus, what’s the point in having your own private practice when you are constantly weighed down by tasks you don’t want to do?
