Out of Pocket is a weekly comedic deep-dive and analysis into the rabbithole that is our healthcare system. Existing healthcare research is dry and boring, and raises questions like:
- Why are 75% of all healthcare conversations defining what a “digital therapeutic” is?
- Why do I have to google MACRA to understand the article about it?
- Why does MACRA contain ANOTHER ACRONYM IN IT??? (MACRA = Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act, CHIP = Children's Health Insurance Program)??
I promise this won’t be another newsletter that you’re going to archive to “read later” and then tell everyone else that they should totally sign up for it. This shit is gonna slap.
I did healthcare research at CB Insights, building our healthcare newsletter to 90K+ subscribers. I also worked on the partnerships team at TrialSpark.
Come for the memes, stay for the analysis. Or just stay for the memes, whatever floats your boat.
Quick Interlude - NEW COURSE ON FHIR! KNOWLEDGEFEST APPS DUE SOON!
See All Courses →So...what actually is FHIR? I get this question a lot, but there's never really enough time to explain it and also I would just mumble "technical standard" and walk away.
So we decided to do a standalone free FHIR 101 course in partnership with Redox! Over 3 days in August we'll go over the spec itself, how it differs from other healthcare information standards, and practical tips to build with it.
I wanted to call it FHIR fest but it got nixed. You can sign up for it here, it's FREE and it's 8/25-8/27.
And a reminder that Knowledgefest apps are due this week. If you want to be in a room with the best ops people in healthcare, you should apply like TODAY.
We sell this conference out every year - all workshops, learn how people are building and scaling in healthcare, application based so we only take the best. We have people from Commure, Clarity Pediatrics, Pomelo, and Waymark already coming, join the squad.
