Description
Anyone paying attention to the way healthcare operates knows it’s bad. The industry is starved for innovation. Starting with a conversation around the need for novel approaches to solve health care’s pain points, leaders from the innovation arms of Dignity Health, Cambia Health and athenahealth will discuss how they are creating new pipelines to creative solutions by actively wooing, nurturing, and colliding with the next generation of innovators and startups.
Representing the health system, software vendor, and payer worlds, the companies will discuss:
- The catalyst for launching their internal business development platforms and/or accelerators
- Successful development business models aimed at lowering the high barriers of entry into health care for developers, entrepreneurs, providers, and even patients with great ideas
- The blueprint for fostering innovation from seed idea to implementation
- What it takes to build and run a successful “disruptive” community and innovation pipeline
- What they look for in startups, and how they are currently serving up new Marketplace innovations, apps or value-add services that increase profitability, drive operational efficiencies, and improve quality of care
- What the most-future proof tech infrastructure (e.g., developer portals on API-friendly, open platforms) to support and scale innovation looks like
- Secrets to making the most of DIY Disruption, whether you’re running the largest innovation arm or the smallest startup
This conversation will spark dialogue about how entrepreneurs, students, patients or anyone with a novel approach to fixing what’s broken in health care can partner with large stakeholders for success.
