New technologies have proven to be of great help to the healthcare sector. There are several telehealth companies who have made new technology-driven business models so successful that they have allowed the country’s healthcare providers to access underserved populations and also those patients who prefer having their treatments at home. Below are some of the healthcare CEOs who are leading the revolution in the healthcare and telehealth sectors.
Kyle Robertson
Zealthy CEO Kyle Robertson possesses rich experience in bringing health treatment to the masses through a direct-to-consumer business model. Before Zealthy, Kyle Robertson founded the online mental health business Cerebral that provided both treatment and online counseling through certified professionals. Zealthy showed the responsiveness of the direct-to-consumer model as Zealthy provided treatment for baldness, weight loss, sexual health and other common needs. Kyle Robertson is also the founder of Revolution Venture Studios and has launched multiple other healthcare and wellness businesses.
Daniel Perez
Hinge Health CEO Daniel Perez has demonstrated the worth of carving out a very narrow niche to serve in the telehealth industry. Specializing in musculoskeletal care alone, Hinge Health went from a startup in 2014 to a public company very recently. Hinge Health merged personalized exercise routines and digital physical therapy to reduce muscle and joint pain and built a relation-based and simple experience to empower people to live and move pain-free.
Julia Hu
Julia Hu Justify at the halfway point of her MBA studies at MIT to pursue her dream and make Lark Health, a digital health program based on cognitive science and artificial intelligence that helps users manage conditions such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, and obesity. Lark Health made waves after being pre-loaded onto Samsung Galaxy S5 phones in 2014. Several users have used it to manage their chronic conditions since then and have shown the world the potential of making things better through the use of artificial intelligence and technology.
Dan Rodrigues
Tebra CEO Dan Rodrigues has charted a different course from the other CEOs listed since he zeroed in immediately on the telehealth infrastructure. Tebra equips independent health companies with the ability to make their services more accessible to users and more streamlined while giving patients a single location where they can host their healthcare experience. Rodrigues was included in the Healthcare Technology Report’s 2023 list of Top Healthcare Technology CEOs based upon his work with Tebra.
From companies transforming the infrastructure of the telehealth sector to companies bringing increased accessibility to weight loss coaching at home, the telehealth business sector is only expanding and increasing as the world advances technologically, human innovation and creativity continue to propel the industry forward, and health care needs continue to converge. Watch these CEOs push their companies to the next level and push the envelope forward in the field of healthcare across the nation.
