SubscribeWhen we got into healthcare all these years ago we did it for a reason. Every one of us, whether you were a clinician or whether you were just working in the space, it's because you wanted to be able to make a difference and help patients to be better. And I think staff across the gamut in our health systems, are struggling to be able to hold up the mirror and ask themselves, am I able to do that every day? And they're not for a variety of reasons and it's deteriorating and I think it's going to continue to be a problem.

When we move forward with wearables and sensors I think the orthopedic side will really take off too. How do you exploit those technologies and layer that in with telehealth to really be able to, maybe post-operatively, almost never see a patient? If you're supposed to have a certain range of motion and we can measure it with a sensor then maybe you don't have to come back to Manhattan or to wherever you've been for those visits. There's all sorts of exciting things around improving patient outcomes and patient care using these techniques.
