Laguna striving to be Signify Health ‘of next decade,’ CEO says

from McKnight's Podcast · host Liza Berger, Yoni Shtein

Innovators like Laguna are facing difficult healthcare conditions with labor shortages and economic slowdowns, to name a few. Still such headwinds could prove to be favorable in the home care space, Yoni Shtein, CEO and co-founder of Laguna said. He left a comfortable job in finance to start Laguna with co-founder Yael Adam after his mother-in-law died during a post-hospital discharge. He sees Laguna, which uses technology to improve outcomes for older adults going from the hospital to home, as the Waze of health transitions. The firm will help adopt the recovery route for patients as it assimilates all the challenges facing patients as they come home. The destination is the same: a return to health.Follow us on social media:Twitter: @McKHomeCareFacebook: McKnight's Home CareLinkedIn: McKnight's Home CareInstagram: mcknights_homecareFollow Laguna on social media:LinkedIn: Laguna HealthShow contributors:McKnight’s Home Care Editor Liza Berger; Yoni Shtein, CEO and co-founder, Laguna Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Laguna, a contextual care management solution focused on acute care transitions to home, is still just starting out in the space. But how big are Laguna’s sights in healthcare? One of its role models is Signify Health, the tech-enabled home care platform that CVS acquired this year for $8 billion. “What I hope we're doing is building the Signify … of the next decade in driving more scale to that via AI-powered technology that enables us to drive comparable outcomes at a far greater scale and lower cost,” Yoni Shtein, CEO and co-founder of Laguna, said this week in a McKnight’s Home Care Newsmakers podcast.
