In this episode of Mission Matters, Adam Torres interviews Delbert Arrendale, founder and CEO of Interoperable Systems and Images (ISI), about transforming healthcare through AI and patient-centric interoperability. Delbert shares his inspiration for ISI, stemming from a personal experience of data accessibility challenges in healthcare. He discusses the problem of siloed clinical data, especially imaging, and its impact on duplicate testing, wellness, and healthcare costs. ISI focuses on solving these issues in rural communities, which are often underserved by major healthcare technology vendors. Delbert explains how AI can stratify patient sickness levels, analyze clinical and personal data, and provide predictive analytics for better health management. The conversation highlights the shift towards patient-centric care, where patients have control over their data and actively participate in their health decisions. Delbert also touches on HHS initiatives like Blue Button and "Kill the Clipboard," aimed at improving data accessibility and reducing bureaucracy in healthcare. ISI is currently seeking funding to roll out its HealthSpectra AI platform, focusing on rural communities and aligning with HHS objectives to improve healthcare outcomes and reduce costs.
