04 - No More Silos - A Conversation with Joan Butters and Zach Evans of Xsolis

Administrative and clinical processes between payers and providers continues to require significant resources, complex workflows, and increase in frustration for both parties - as well as patients.

Founded over a decade ago, Xsolis was designed to address these challenges and continues to build momentum with a very unique AI-driven platform ("Dragonfly") that uniquely breaks down the barriers, reduces silos, and creates superior satisfaction for all parties.

During this conversation, captured at the Chase Studio in Nashville, I was fortunate to hear from the Xsolis CEO and CTO - Joan Butters and Zach Evans.

We discussed the origin story, orginal value proposition, use of platform technology, migration to the cloud, a "re-platform" underway, and increasing elements of value that both payers and providers can realize - all setting the table for superior patient benefits.
