Scott North with Praia Health

MarketScale
April 15, 2025

Scott North, Head of Partnerships at Praia Health, joins Panda Perspectives to discuss how Praia is redefining patient experience orchestration. Spun out of Providence in 2023, Praia helps health systems retain patients by unifying fragmented experiences—like lab visits and pharmacy trips—into a single, seamless journey. Scott emphasizes Praia’s focus on long-term engagement, reducing patient leakage, and building digital loyalty. As the first vendor in Panda Health’s new Product Showcase series, Scott highlights the value of anonymous health system participation and the candid, early-stage feedback it offers. He shares how the showcase helped Praia understand market needs and connect with previously inaccessible health systems. Scott’s insight reflects the power of collaboration and strategic matchmaking in solving real healthcare challenges.
