In this forward-thinking episode of the Venture Capital Podcast, hosts Jon Bradshaw and Peter Harris are joined by two leaders shaping the future of healthcare: Ryan Morley, Partner at Springside, and Dr. Jon Lensing, co-founder and CEO of Open Loop. Together, they dive deep into the rapidly evolving landscape of telehealth and digital health, exploring how technology, AI, and new business models are transforming care delivery.

Dr. Lensing shares his journey from rural medicine to building Open Loop, a telehealth infrastructure company designed to bring healthcare directly to where people live, work, and play. He explains how Open Loop is enabling non-traditional platforms—like gyms, dating apps, and retail stores—to offer convenient, on-demand healthcare services, fundamentally shifting care from hospitals and clinics to everyday environments.

Ryan Morley and Peter Harris discuss the investment opportunities emerging from this shift, highlighting how the COVID-19 pandemic accelerated telehealth adoption and how the next wave of innovation will focus on infrastructure, personalization, and value-based care. The conversation explores the power of AI in healthcare, from automating clinical documentation and patient intake to improving diagnoses and care coordination. Dr. Lensing details how Open Loop leverages AI to drastically reduce clinician workload and enhance patient engagement, while Ryan emphasizes the need for regulatory evolution to unlock the full potential of autonomous and AI-driven care.

The group also examines the broader determinants of health, noting that 85% of health outcomes are tied to lifestyle and environment rather than traditional medical care. They discuss how digital health can proactively address chronic disease, expand access, and empower consumers to take charge of their well-being.

Packed with insights on infrastructure, investment trends, regulatory hurdles, and the promise of AI, this episode is a must-listen for founders, investors, and anyone interested in the future of healthcare.
