Supercharging care management, a central concern in healthcare requires understanding the powerful technological tools available to make a difference. Artificial Intelligence (AI) stands poised to redefine patient care coordination. The discussion around such technological leaps is not just timely but crucial, considering the ever-rising healthcare costs and the need for improved patient outcomes. This context sets the stage for a pertinent conversation about how companies like Laguna Health deploy advanced AI tools, like Natural Language Processing (NLP), to revolutionize the industry.

The latest Healthcare Rethink episode, a podcast series by FinThrive, features an in-depth discussion with Yoni Shtein, CEO and Co-Founder of Laguna Health, led by host Brian Urban. The dialogue focuses on how Laguna Health is implementing AI to enhance the efficiency of care management and adherence to care plans.

Highlights from the episode include:

  • The integration of NLP and AI to relieve the administrative burden on care managers
  • Laguna Health’s contribution to diminishing hospital readmissions and reducing healthcare costs
  • The incorporation of social determinants into care plans, aiming to elevate patient care standards

Yoni Shtein’s path to healthcare was deeply personal, ignited by a family loss. With a professional foundation as a software engineer at Microsoft and a track record in business model innovation, Shtein and his business partner, Yael Adam, contribute deep insights from her tenure at a digital health startup, making the Laguna Health leadership team uniquely equipped to drive progress in the tech-healthcare sector and supercharge care management.
