How to Rebuild the System with Iyah Romm and Toyin Ajayi of Cityblock Health
Medicaid spends $10,000 on average for a hospitalization in NYC. What could you do if you had that money to prevent a hospitalization? That's the fundamental question Iyah and Toyin set out to answer at Cityblock Health. They have built the first tech-driven provider to bring better care to neighborhoods that have historically had poor access to quality, affordable healthcare. As a healthcare policymaker and a family medicine doctor respectively, these co-founders have quickly built Cityblock into a unicorn that serves over 70,000 members across the east coast. Iyah and Toyin share why they hope for a revolution in healthcare, how their unique approach is driving high NPS and avoiding unnecessary hospitalizations, and why founders must accept that they'll make mistakes every day.
