How to be an Experimentalist with Arif Nathoo of Komodo Health
Across the globe, a trove of healthcare data is being created and amassed at scale, but how can the health system leverage this data to create better outcomes? In 2014, Arif Nathoo—with AM, MD, and MPA degrees from Harvard—took the humbling leap from healthcare executive at McKinsey to founder of Komodo Health. He and his cofounder set out to reduce the burden of disease with data-driven insights and powerful software applications. Today, Komodo Health works with everyone from pharmaceutical manufacturers to payers to startups, and the company is valued at over $3B. Arif shares why Covid was a watershed moment in utilizing healthcare data, why the future of healthcare will be fully centered on the patient, and what it was like to hire more people in the last year than the company hired in the first seven years total.
