CarePoints

Navigating the complex landscape of healthcare technology can feel like playing a game of Double Jeopardy. CarePoints, a new podcast series hosted by Kenny Schiff, will equip clinical directors, hospital administrators and other stakeholders with insights to explore and actualize technology-driven solutions for improved outcomes. What he does: A healthcare industry veteran, Kenny is the Founder of CareSight, a cloud-based patient care analytics company. In October 2022, CareSight was acquired by Lone Star Communications. Though healthcare colleagues often mistake him for an engineer, Kenny instead describes himself as an explainer teacher, translator and problem solver. His interest in technology started early on and he has leveraged it as a way to support his musical pursuits. Organization: Lone Star Communications, Inc. Words of wisdom: “For me, the value of technology is not the ‘cool factor,’ not the bits and bytes. It's about what it can do for humanity and healthcare. It's about making patients safe and satisfied, helping to avoid adverse events and improving the work life of staff.”
