Panel: "Where no health tech has gone before."


Details
A common theme in health tech is that there's a communication gap between the developers building new technologies and the healthcare providers working on the front lines. Is the gap real or imagined? Who knows--either way, it's a good excuse to bring an amazing panel of doctors in front of an audience of health tech developers, get a discussion going, and see what happens.
As the title suggests, this meetup will feature a panel of doctors discussing the problems they regularly encounter where technology is notably absent: everything from overlooked pain points in the clinical workflow to under-served patient populations. After 30 - 45 minutes of moderated panel discussion, we'll broaden the discussion by opening it up to audience Q&A.
In other words, this is going to be a hell of a lot of fun. Take a break from coding that NCPDP parser or SNOMED CT API you've been working on and come join the discussion.
