I am super grateful for the chance to dive into free-market healthcare policy. It was an awesome opportunity to apply my economics skills to the real world. The system needs a lot of work, but Paragon has a great team!

Steve Pearson liked thisSteve Pearson liked thisI am proud to announce that we have raised a pre-seed round to continue developing 'Lovable for Robotics.' We are building a fast prototyping robotics solution, available to everyone. (You prompt and get working robotic code in both simulation and the real world) The round was led by Element Ventures with participation from Rock Creek Capital, LLC and Mana Ventures. Thanks to Sam Andersen, Rick Stratford, and Morgan Schwanke. We are also backed by Colin Gardiner / Yonder. An absolutely great group of people to work with. Where we need help! The platform is only as good as the underlying skills. We're trying to talk to anyone developing robotic intelligence or developing point solutions for robotics. We also need engineers skilled in VLA for robotics. Thanks for helping to support what is an absolute moonshot and a crazy vision for the future. It's incredibly exciting to see the sheer imagination of people starting to build. #robotics #vc #venturecapital #siliconslopes #physicalai #preseed

Steve Pearson liked thisSteve Pearson liked this$4.7 trillion. US healthcare. 34% of that, so $1.6 trillion, goes to admin. Prior auth. Coding. Documentation. Billing. That's more than the entire SaaS industry combined. Not projected. Already being spent. Harvey AI just hit $11B serving 100K lawyers. Healthcare has 4M+ clinical workers. 40x the market. Zero $10B AI companies. Why? Legal is complex. Healthcare is complex + regulated + fragmented + trust-dependent. HIPAA on every decision. EHR integration across 800+ tools. Physicians burned by 20 years of bad software. That's not a tech problem. It's a deployment problem. Multi-agent AI now outperforms single models. 61% vs 44% on clinical benchmarks. Inference costs dropped 10x, but 80% of hospital AI pilots still fail. Not because the AI doesn't work, but because nobody solved integration, compliance, and trust. 75% of doctors cite admin burden as the top burnout driver. $1.6 trillion in waste. One problem to solve.

Steve Pearson liked thisSteve Pearson liked thisAfter 9 years, I am sunsetting my time at Mind Share Partners. I'm incredibly proud of the work we've done over the past decade to create mentally healthy workplaces and open up conversations about mental health at work. Personally, I feel so fortunate to have been able to grow professionally and navigate life changes (newborn during the pandemic for example...) while working at a place that values wellbeing so deeply. My professional focus remains on increasing the social impact of business. Going forward, I'll be doing fractional COO and advising projects with a few groups going deep in health and employment.

Mike and Josh are two of the best and brightest founders I have ever worked with. They share so many great insights on this week's episode of The Heart of Healthcare Podcast on their journey from residency to building one of (if not the) fastest growing health AI companies and the most successful exit in the sector to date. For anyone working in health AI, this is a must listen IMHO!

Bret Anderson has spent 20 years working with hospitals and health systems on the economics of care delivery. His read on IVF was straight-forward on the Inside Reproductive Health podcast with Griffin Jones: "Over the last decade or so, there has probably been a greater focus on the revenue side and less so on the cost side. I think that the next five to ten years are going to be much more focused on the economics of the operating model," Anderson said. That's exactly what we found building the activity-based costing framework published in the Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics last December. The revenue side of IVF is well understood. Coverage mandates are expanding. Managed care is rising. What isn't well understood is what it actually costs to deliver a cycle — down to the activity level, by procedure type, by egg count, by lab scale. The payers are going to figure this out. The question is whether clinic operators figure it out first? Full paper and episode link in comments. #IVFEconomics #FertilityBusiness #ActivityBasedCosting #JARG Conceivable Life Sciences

Matt Holt, former New Mountain Capital executive, is exploring a $30 billion deal to combine five health tech startups into a single platform called Thoreau. The venture would set out to simplify and integrate services across payers, providers and data — and if completed, it would rank among the largest private equity-backed health tech companies ever. Time will tell if this massive consolidation ever gets completed or translates into real value — or if it's just another bet on scale.
