The Other Side of the Table: What Academic Health Systems Actually Need From Health Tech

Dr. Marschall Runge, MD, PhD, Dean of the University of Michigan Medical School and CEO of Michigan Medicine, sits across the table from health tech founders every day. In this episode, he shares the institutional reality that most health tech companies never see: what it actually takes for an academic medical center to say yes. Not the demo. Not the pilot. The governance questions, the budget structures, the clinical workflow realities, and the leadership calculus that decides whether a tool survives past the first quarter. If you build for health systems, or you are trying to scale inside one, this is the conversation that explains why the buyer behaves the way they do.—Resources & Links:📖 Get the Book: "The Borderless Healthcare Revolution" is available now on Amazon and major retailers.💼 Work with Dr. Matt:Looking for a keynote speaker or strategic advisor?Visit: drsarahmatt.com🔗 Connect on Social:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahmattmd/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DrSarahMatt-ClinicalRealist📧 Subscribe to The Briefing: drsarahmatt.com/newsletter-signup —Disclaimer:The views expressed on this podcast are those of Dr. Sarah Matt and her guests.
