Some good questions convened by the @nytimes @NYTHealth opinion page from experts in their respective healthcare fields: https://t.co/aenF2UyO8o

I will be watching with interest on where both Senators' statements and the nominee's responses focus, particularly in the balance of HHS department, FDA (food vs. drug vs. device), ONC, and CMS to gain some clarity on what the next 4 years might hold. https://t.co/fNIM6cOXf8

Understanding DeepSeek's impact on tech, finance, and global relations has been daunting. Key FAQ points: China's unexpected parity with U.S. labs; V3's low training/inference costs affecting Nvidia and markets; and its success despite the chip ban. https://t.co/MpKvPS1KPu

Given the whirlwind of troubling news, opinion, and big events going on, my instinct is to stop engaging entirely in social media and the flurry of pop-up notifications. @kottke.org has a much better set of ideas on how to manage that whirlwind: https://t.co/XGQt3hrklt

Excited to see that the primary use cases for #ProjectStargate, with Oracle, OpenAI, Softbank, Microsoft, and NVIDIA are healthcare related -- while this will take a long time, the foundation of AI infrastructure is critical. https://t.co/KMskibNLyW

The #EO rollback of #AI and #HealthcareAI guardrails / restrictions by the @realdonaldtrump White House on companies building AI in medical devices, diagnostics, and software platforms is notable. More to come on this and other #executiveorders! https://t.co/V2sYGEBXjd

HA gathered for our annual day of service – Founder’s Day. We are proud of our 30+ year dedication to giving back, which is why the day is named in honor of our founders Paula Ness Speers and Mark Speers. Our teams partnered with 4 incredible organizations to help those in need.

I am not sure I've ever been at a Level 7, but have definitely been at a Level 6 for a few weeks at a time and it's awful.

As we approach the holidays, the end of the year, and increased levels of busy-ness in our personal and professional lives, this list really spoke to me. Here's to a New Year full of Level 2-4! https://t.co/MLXmDKEN8B

Thrilled to be named one of the top places to work by The Boston Globe for the 5th consecutive year! This award would not be possible without our people - who bring passion, integrity, and talent to the work we do to help our clients make a profound impact on #healthcare globally

Fun at the Revs tonight with Wayland Youth Soccer - Section 108, Row 33, Seats 1-4. #NERevs #tweetyourseat

Great to speak with @erinbrodwin about #SodaHealth and their work in #MedicareAdvantage and the partnership opportunities and competitive challenges they might find.

“Carequality [the interoperability network] exchanges 50MM provider messages per day. SWIFT [the international banking exchange that most now know from the news with Russia sanctions] exchanges 40MM per day” @mickytripathi1 — there is real scale!

“How do you get 64 diff public health agencies to connect to a common data platform? You don’t. You sign up the willing, prove value, and then hope the rest follow. TX still isn’t connected to the national *electric* grid, so this will take a while.” @mickytripathi1 @ONC_HealthIT

[Greg Chittim @chittim]

Hear hear. We often (though not enough) talk about provider workflow as a digital health priority, but patient (and caregiver) workflow innovation would be even more impactful if we could actually get to a viable patient-mediated platform.

[Daniel Z. Sands, MD, MPH @DrDannySands]

While we talk of a #platform for #diabetes care or #kidneydisease care or others, this is a problem for #patients who often don’t have just one disease. IMO this is like the multiple pt portal problem. A real platform would unify various care management tools. #MITPlatforms

Great shoutout for @IntelyCare as a prime investment trend — staffing, scheduling, and consultation management - Adam Grossman at Deerfield.

New panel at @mit_ide #platforms22 “Investment in Digital Platform Businesses” moderated by @EllenHerlacher from @LRVHealth with panelists from @OPRXtweets , @crickethealth , and Deerfield Management.

“Never try to do the thing that customers love and think they’re good at. Do the things that they hate or suck at. Finding the right ‘waterboy tasks’ is the definition of product-market fit in healthcare” @Jonathan_Bush @mit_ide #platforms22

“2. The tech stack - @CareByFirefly has built a complete payer tech stack for $60MM of funding. How much would that have cost in 1995?” — I’d guess $250MM+ at a bare minimum.

Keynote fireside chat between @g2parker and @Jonathan_Bush - “We are creating a healthcare platform @ZusHealthHQ after I failed to create a platform at @athenahealth” @mit_ide #platforms22

[Greg Chittim @chittim]

Two things have actually made this attractive - 1. The “blessings” of the pandemic that have taught us that virtual care works in cases where behavior change is the solution, and
