ScaleHealth: What silver lining do you see in these crazy times?
Stasis: I believe the lasting impact this will have on healthcare innovation is net positive. Care providers and the broader system is getting exposed to new digital health tools. Once you use a “smartphone”, most don’t want to go back to a “flip phone”. I think we will see many examples within healthcare. The result I believe is an accelerated rate of adoption of new technologies that increase the capacity and quality of our healthcare system.
