Day 1 of #vive2024 and I want you to go check-out Oshi Health. I had the pleasure of speaking with Randy Forman on Highway to Health recently, and I learned so much about the patient community suffering from chronic GI conditions. 25-33% of our population has a diagnosed digestive issue -- 2-3x the prevalence of diabetes. If that's not eye-opening enough -- upwards of 60-70% of our population deals with some sort of digestive issue -- often undiagnosed or less severe. The problem is -- coding methodologies are necessarily designed to document the commonality of these conditions, so our payer and provider communities have a hard time quantifying the percentage of their population suffering. Plus -- because of reimbursement structures -- the necessary care and coordination was largely unknown or unavailable to the majority of patients. On Highway to Health, we celebrate people and organizations that are committed to improving access, experience and outcomes for our industry -- and Oshi / Randy are perfect examples.
