Caresyntax CEO Dennis Kogan wants to introduce value based care to the operating room. It's a tall order but Caresyntax thinks they have a formula to benefit the patient, provider and payer.
Kogan's parents are surgeons from the former Soviet Union, which gave him a foundational perspective. He studied technology and then business at Carnegie Mellon and Harvard Business School. One of his key takeaways is that quality and efficiency are highly related.
Unlike many healthcare entrepreneurs I interview, Dennis's company is active all over the world. There are geographic differences, but they're not as profound as I imagined.
The episode explores the impact of AI, including generative AI, on value-based care and the potential for surgical Accountable Care Organizations to more effectively manage quality and total cost of care. It also covers the challenges of entrepreneurship in the healthcare sector, referencing insights from Ben Horowitz's "The Hard Thing About Hard Things," and discusses Caresyntax's efforts to leverage AI in clinical decision-making to transform healthcare delivery.
Host David E. Williams is president of healthcare strategy consulting firm Health Business Group. Produced by Dafna Williams.
