Entrepreneurs, Investors, & Clinicians Gather for Digital Health Boot Camp

Prime Health held its first Digital Health Boot Camp on February 22nd.

DENVER, CO – Over fifty clinicians, digital health entrepreneurs, and venture capitalists gathered at the Commons On Champa yesterday for Prime Health’s Digital Health Boot Camp. Featuring presentations on healthcare reimbursement models and discussions of intellectual property rights, the daylong event familiarized attendees with a wide range of topics related to the field of digital health.

The Boot Camp began with Michele Lueck, the President and CEO of the Colorado Health Institute, and Chris Underwood, the Director of Colorado’s Health Information Office, describing the state of healthcare in Colorado. Its afternoon session featured a lively physician panel at which Dr. Arlen Meyers of the Society of Physician Entrepreneurs declared, “Healthcare needs to be re-engineered.”

Throughout the Boot Camp, there was widespread agreement among those present that healthcare was undergoing a profound and necessary change. CyberMed News attended Prime Health’s Digital Health Boot Camp and took photos of the event.

  1. Thanks for the mention and to the CBSA/Prime for the invitation to participate.

  2. Great job ! The speakers and content addressed a balanced view of the opportunities and challenges for digital health companies targeting the healthcare industry. Really appreciated the physician, insurer and CIO points of view – and that they are not all the same. Thank you.
