Episode Description

The interoperability promise of a shared, longitudinal medical record has so far focused on connecting health systems to each other. With the growing investment and constant new entrants of SDOH solution vendors, a new wave of interoperability challenges are becoming apparent. How does your health app connect to an EHR? Will new anti-data blocking legislation help or hurt SDOH startups? In this wide-ranging conversation, Don Lee and Shahid Shah talk with Niko Skievaski, President and Co-Founder of Redox, about his team's solution to interoperability and why health information exchanges (HIEs) are only part of the answer.
