What happens when two trailblazers in healthcare sit down for a candid conversation? You get a must-listen episode of the OffCall Podcast featuring Mark Cuban and Dr. Graham Walker, MD! Mark Cuban is no stranger to shaking up industries. In this episode, he dives into how transparency, cutting out middlemen like PBMs, and ensuring fair pricing can revolutionize the system. From lowering drug costs to improving access for patients, Cuban’s approach is all about meaningful disruption. At Inflect, we value bold thinking that challenges the status quo—this conversation perfectly aligns with our mission to drive innovation in healthcare. 🎧 Listen now and join the discussion about reshaping healthcare! 👇 https://lnkd.in/g6D8-sBm #HealthcareInnovation #Disruption #FutureOfMedicine #HealthcareTransformation #PatientCare

Most people tune out when doctors rage about prior auth, opaque pricing, or middlemen sucking value out of the system. Except Mark Cuban. He reads the regulations, runs the numbers, and builds alternatives. Where we all see complexity, he sees opportunity. Middlemen? Rebates? Copays? Deductibles? Don’t need ’em. Sell drugs at cost + 15%, and you: 1️⃣ Save your own companies money 2️⃣ Save Americans billions 3️⃣ Keep local pharmacies alive 4️⃣ And force bloated PBMs to compete (or die trying). One recent study found that Mark Cuban Cost Plus Drug Company, PBC saved patients and taxpayers over $3 billion (and that was just from analyzing 77 generics). It was a real privilege to talk to him last week about what’s broken in healthcare, who’s profiting off the mess, and what it’ll take to rebuild trust in medicine. He’s real. He’s sharp. And he might be the only person alive who actually enjoys healthcare complexity, because it's another chance for him to knock it all down. 🥊 As always, link to the full 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙄 𝘿𝙤𝙘𝙩𝙤𝙧 𝙋𝙤𝙙𝙘𝙖𝙨𝙩 episode in the comments.

We're always excited to engage in meaningful discussions and make new connections. Yesterday, our team member Helen Abad attended the Chicago Women in Digital Health Breakfast, hosted by PACE Healthcare Capital & Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati. Her takeaways are truly inspiring, highlighting the profound impact innovation can have on real lives. These conversations remind us of the power of collaboration and innovation in shaping the future of healthcare. We’d love to keep the conversation going! What events should we have on our radar? Drop them in the comments—we’d love to join! 👇 #DigitalHealth #WomenInHealthTech #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #InvestingInChange #VentureCapital #VC
This morning’s Chicago Women in Digital Health breakfast hosted by PACE Healthcare Capital & Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati was filled with meaningful discussions from healthcare experts, touching on two incredibly timely topics: the power of AI in patient care and championing women’s health through policy, progress, and advocacy. ✨ Yes, AI is everywhere. In healthcare, there’s a wide spectrum from optimizing logistics to analyzing clinical notes and improving diagnostics. What makes AI so special in healthcare is its direct impact on human lives. Bobby Reddy, Jr. said it best - AI is ultimately just a tool. When used the right way, it can amplify a clinician’s intuition, helping them recognize patterns that become second nature over time. 🚺 If you’ve read some of my previous posts, you know I advocate for women’s health. Katie Collins was the calming, voice of reason, drawing on her government experience to help us understand how policy moves forward. While reproductive health often dominates the conversation, women’s health is more than that. Healthy women are critical to a thriving society. Women make up 85% of consumer spending and are the CEOs of our families. The reality is that care deserts are growing due to cuts in funding. Katie shared that some representatives are receiving over 400 calls a minute from people voicing concerns. 💯 Conversations like these bring the reality of healthcare into focus and remind us why we invest. The AI companies we support, like Sayvant, have the power to reshape clinician behavior and allow them to get back to caring for the patient. Many female founders, driven by their own lived experiences, are taking matters into their own hands to build companies. To advocate for change, we have to take big swings and support initiatives that drive progress forward. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
