In this episode we had Darren Dworkin with us.
Mr. Dworkin is currently the president and the Chief Operations Officer at Press Ganey and Managing Partner at PG Ventures, one of the market leaders for digital engagement solutions for providers, payers and life science companies. Before joining Press Ganey, he was the Chief Information Officer at Cedars-Sinai Health System while also leading CS ventures and the CS accelerator. Prior to joining Cedars-Sinai, Darren held the position of Chief Technology Officer at Boston University Medical Center.
During our conversation, we talked about what companies should prepare and consider in order to improve their chance to have a successful interaction with the IT department and CIOs of hospitals. We also touched the venture side of health systems (and how it is changing in the current market), pro and cons for adding provider as a strategic investor and, as a topping on the cake, tried to understand what patient engagement and digital front door actually mean.
Let’s talk business. Digital Health Business.
---------------------------------------------------------
Arguably the most important setting stone for a great digital health company is identifying a true unmet business need and crafting an efficient solution to solve it.
Israel has such an abundance of tech talent and technology can be a true differentiator. Still, without the business (and clinical) angle there is a good chance it will become a hammer looking for a nail.
Under that notion, we at Arkin Digital health decided to launch a new miniseries of interviews with industry leaders, coming from different parts of the US healthcare ecosystem, hopefully, to provide Israeli entrepreneurs, investors, and the Israeli healthcare community insights on the business side of digital health.
Bitesize interviews with one goal – to provide concrete value to hopefully push more Israeli companies to penetrate and expand in the US healthcare market.
We would love to connect and have your feedback!

קצת על הפודקאסט שלנו :
לדעתנו, אחת מאבני היסוד החשובות ביותר עבור חברה שעוסקת בבריאות דיגיטלית היא היכולת לאתר
הזדמנות עסקית אמיתית שלא ניתנה אליה עוד מענה ולייצר עבורה פתרון יעיל ליישום. בישראל, יש שפע של
כישרונות טכנולוגיים אולם לעיתים הזווית העסקית (והקלינית) איננה חזקה מספיק. תחת תפיסה זו, ניסינו
בארקין בריאות דיגיטלית להשיק סדרת ראיונות, עם גורמי מפתח בתעשיית הבריאות בארצות הברית,
המייצגים חלקים שונים מהשוק. מטרתנו העיקרית, הינה לנסות ולספק ליזמים ישראלים, משקיעים ולכלל
קהילת הבריאות הישראלית, תובנות וכלים פרקטיים על הצד העסקי של בריאות דיגיטלית.
