Healthtech Talks with Fexingo: Digital Health, Telemedicine, and Medical Software

Every day, a new health technology company claims to reinvent healthcare. Which ones actually improve patient outcomes, and which are just repackaging old inefficiencies with better user interfaces? In Healthtech Talks with Fexingo, Lucas and Luna cut through the hype to examine the real economics and clinical evidence behind digital health, telemedicine, and medical software. They analyze specific companies — from telemedicine platforms like Teladoc to AI diagnostic tools from Aidoc — dissecting their business models, regulatory hurdles, and adoption curves. Lucas brings a journalist's precision to revenue numbers, clinical trial data, and policy changes (e.g., FDA digital health guidance, CMS telehealth reimbursement rules). Luna challenges assumptions about scalability, patient privacy, and equity of access, grounded in real-world case studies like Babylon Health's rise and fall or the integration of Epic Systems across hospital networks. Each episode focuses on a single topic: how remote patient monitoring platforms affect readmission rates, whether AI scribes actually reduce physician burnout, why some digital therapeutics succeed while others fail FDA clearance. This show is for healthcare executives, venture investors, clinicians evaluating tools, and policy analysts who want substance over slogans. Lucas and Luna don't do 'will robots replace doctors' speculation; they ask: What is the unit economics of a virtual primary care visit? Which medical specialties are most ripe for software disruption? And when will the evidence catch up to the pitch deck? #HealthtechTalks #DigitalHealth #Telemedicine #MedicalSoftware #HealthIT #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #Technology #HealthcareInnovation #HealthPolicy #AIinHealthcare #RemotePatientMonitoring #DigitalTherapeutics #ValueBasedCare #EpicSystems #Teladoc #Aidoc #BabylonHealth Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo© 2026 Fexingo.

  • How AI Is Making Hospital Supply Chains Smarter

    How AI Is Making Hospital Supply Chains Smarter
    Jun 7 2026
    Episode 36 of Healthtech Talks with Fexingo breaks down how artificial intelligence is transforming hospital supply chains. Lucas and Luna explore a real case: a 400-bed hospital in Ohio that used AI to reduce supply waste by 18% and cut stockouts by 40% in six months. They discuss the role of predictive algorithms, real-time inventory tracking, and the shift from just-in-time to just-in-case models. The episode names specific technologies like RFID sensors and machine learning demand forecasting, and touches on challenges like data integration and staff training. No hype — just how one system redesigned its supply chain and what it means for the future of hospital operations. #AI #Healthtech #SupplyChain #HospitalOperations #PredictiveAnalytics #InventoryManagement #RFID #MachineLearning #Logistics #OhioHospital #WasteReduction #StockoutPrevention #JustInTime #DigitalHealth #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How AI Detects Osteoporosis from Routine Chest X-Rays

    How AI Detects Osteoporosis from Routine Chest X-Rays
    Jun 6 2026
    Every year millions of chest X-rays are performed for reasons unrelated to bone health — pre-op clearance, pneumonia checks, routine physicals. But a hidden signal is sitting in those images: bone density. In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how radiologists at Mass General Brigham trained an AI model to flag osteoporosis from chest X-rays taken for other purposes, achieving 87 percent accuracy without additional scans. They walk through the training data challenge — over 10,000 labeled X-rays matched to DEXA scan results — and the clinical workflow that lets the algorithm quietly alert a primary care physician when a patient over 50 shows low bone density. They also discuss the trade-offs: false positives, the risk of overdiagnosis, and why the FDA clearance process for this type of 'opportunistic screening' AI is still ambiguous. A concrete look at how existing medical images are being mined for unexpected insights. #AI #Osteoporosis #ChestXRay #BoneDensity #MassGeneralBrigham #Radiology #OpportunisticScreening #DEXAScan #FDA #MedicalAI #HealthTech #DigitalHealth #DiagnosticAI #PreventiveCare #MachineLearning #Business #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo

  • How AI Detects Diabetic Retinopathy from Eye Scans

    How AI Detects Diabetic Retinopathy from Eye Scans
    Jun 6 2026
    This episode of Healthtech Talks explores how artificial intelligence is transforming diabetic retinopathy screening. Every year, millions of people with diabetes risk blindness because eye exams are too expensive, too scarce, or too late. Lucas and Luna focus on IDx-DR, the first FDA-authorized AI system that can diagnose diabetic retinopathy from a retinal photo without a specialist present. They walk through how the algorithm works, why it matters for underserved communities, and what the real-world data from 2025 showed about accuracy and patient adherence. They also touch on the broader shift toward point-of-care diagnostics and what it means for primary care doctors. No hype, just the numbers and the lived experience of clinics that have adopted the tool. #DiabeticRetinopathy #AI #IDxDR #FDA #EyeScans #Healthtech #DigitalHealth #Telemedicine #MedicalAI #RetinalImaging #PrimaryCare #Screening #PreventiveCare #LucasAndLuna #BusinessAndTechnology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #HealthtechTalks Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
