Healthcare Software for the Evolving Policy Niche: Learnings from Saud Juman, Father, Founder and Former CEO of Policy Medical

Trends in Med Tech

In this episode of Trends in MedTech we speak with Saud Juman, founder and former CEO of Policy Medical, a governance, risk and compliance management software for healthcare enterprises. Saud takes us through his journey of first coming up with the idea to solve a particular problem that healthcare facilities were facing, to launch and growing a full-fledged medium sized company, and then leading the successful acquisition of Policy Medical and subsequently exiting the company for a new beginning. As a young guy in his 20’s, Saud found himself driven by a passion to do meaningful work and the pursuit of helping others. While working for a healthcare company, he serendipitously found an opportunity to make a real difference by creating a software solution that he knew already knew was in demand. This led to the beginnings of what later became Policy Medical, which now holds thousands of clients, and has reach hundreds of thousands of healthcare providers across North America. What struck me the most is that Saud sets a great example of the importance of learning by doing. One of the key messages in this episode is the power of listening attentively and learning from customers. If there is one ingredient that has made all the difference in the evolution and success of Policy Medical – this was it. Throughout the episode we also spoke about adapting to clients’ changing needs, paying attention to industry trends, such as the movement toward greater commoditization in a once niche software solutions space, and the importance of listening to your body’s needs for balance. It was also a pleasant surprise to hear Saud give so much weight to the impact that his family life had on his professional success. Although Saud is no longer officially affiliated with Policy Medical, he remains a big fan of the company and what it represents. Saud is optimistic about what the future has in store, especially as he grows his coaching practice and is able to spend more time with his family, perhaps before starting his next venture.

In his spare time, Saud still practices in martial arts and medical Qigong. He also looks forward to working with mentees and fellow entrepreneurs through this coaching practice. You can find out more about this by visiting www.SaudJuman.io .
