Ever handed off a patient with a thick discharge packet… only to get a call two days later that they’re back in the ER? That’s not just a clinical failure—it’s a system breakdown.
In this episode, I sat down with Brian Drozdowicz from PointClickCare to talk about building tools that actually improve care transitions. Not just more data—but smarter data, delivered at the right time, to the right people.
Whether you’re building the next big HealthTech platform or navigating value-based contracts, you’ve felt the friction. Data overload. Poor interoperability. Tools that no one actually uses. This conversation is your blueprint for bridging the gaps.
Brian shares how PCC’s “PacMan” tool is powering better visibility across care settings—and how AI could finally summarize those 30-page discharge reports into meaningful next steps.
If you’re building tools in care coordination, transitions, or VBC, listen in for how to align your product with real clinical flow—and avoid becoming another tool that gets ignored.
What You’ll Learn:
🔑 Why real interoperability is about usable data—not just access
🔑 How PointClickCare’s PacMan tool connects ACOs, hospitals, SNFs, and payers
🔑 How AI can streamline discharge planning to boost outcomes and efficiency
🔑 Where the biggest founder opportunities are in value-based care
🔑 What’s needed for faster adoption of AI and value-based care at scale

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
