Is the NHS "sick care" or "health care"? When it was created, long term, overlapping and often cascading chronic conditions like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, chronic kidney disease weren't something the founders of the system had to plan for.....but now those 3 conditions alone account for 30%+ of annual NHS budgets....
This is a clip from this week's @healthtechhour with the visionary complex systems innovator Liam Cahill, founder of Together Digital - link in bio for full episode!
Can innovation enable the future of the NHS, allowing it to embrace and realise the holy grail of disease prevention and unlock the huge cost savings and better health for the nation as a result?

What separates fast healthcare deals from slow ones.
What separates winners from losers in HealthTech.
From my latest @healthtechhour

LinkedIn is full of people moaning about how slow the NHS is to work with.
Thatâs UK tech code for:
âMy NHS sales suck.â
Unpopular opinion?
That the NHS is no slower than any other B2B sector.
In fact it has more support for entrepreneurs than other sectors.
If a Customer is being âslowâ to buy your product, it means they donât have an urgent need and a willingness to pay.
Look at why that is.
Slow isnât the cause.
Slow isnât the customers fault.
Slow shows your Product doesnât mean Customer needs.
Look at your own product / service / team / commercials / operational support.
99/100 the answer is in there.
But sometimes you might not want to hear it.

Building @mypocdoc has been a privelige.
Iâm so grateful for our opportunity.
But Iâve made some mistakes.
You learn more from mistakes than wins.
The only sure way not to make a mistake is never trying.

Stop the fear factor â
Prevention unlocks ÂŁ40bn per year to the UK economy đ¸
Positivity gets people excited.
Fear turns them off.

CVD prevention can add 1% to the UK GDP - that's the same as the entire agricultural sector.
It was an honour to co-host @mypocdoc 's "From Prevention to Prosperity" event at Parliament with the NHS yesterday.
Insane to think our company is now co-hosting events with the NHS itself.

Building a product without talking to customers is INSANITY but itâs what SO MANY people do when starting their company.
Especially in health.
Just cos youâre smart and your product is innovative doesnât mean customers give a f***
Park the ego, be humble and go talk to customers.
Thanks to @goodmorningharleystreet for having me on!
