Hello friends,
Welcome back! And a very belated Happy New Year!
Hope you had a good summer/break/holiday period.
Took some good naps. Consumed obscenely delicious things. Saw good humans. Maybe even some tennis. Or, if you’re anything like me - binge-watched trashy romcoms (I swear Emily in Paris has like 3 references to healthcare) and played with ChatGPT.
Still, how the hell is it Feb?
Anyway, 2023 certainly started with a boom. With rally cries from almost all state governments, and now the fed, for much-needed medicare reform, it seems. About time. At least, I’m excited. But also, a little scared.

It’s sure to be a long ass, messy process. And its not just Medicare that needs a little revamp, but the whole of the healthcare system. Whats to come? Who knows. But at least… it’s something?
In other news, AI and ChatGPT flooded newsfeeds.
Along with endless conversations about how it can, is, and will be used in healthcare.
Which is why we’re SO DARN EXCITED to be hosting a private URL panel and chat for our What the Health private community crew on AI & LLMs next Monday!
🥳 Ft the epic Dr Simon Kos from Microsoft, Dr Tom Kelly, Founder and CEO of Heidi Health, and some other fun folk
Got fomo? Yeah I would too 😉
But in all seriousness, that’s why you should join the fun, and more great events and convos like this - in our epic private community! And why you should join the waitlist 💜
We’ll be reopening apps this month, with those who applied 1st round and on the waitlist getting priority.

OTHERWISE…
And I’ll see you in there.
Last, but not least…
We’re pulling together a little piece on predictions (cause cliche, duh). But actually from smart people. So…
💡 What do you think this year has in store for Aussie Healthcare & Health Innovation?
Seriously, we’re keen to know!!
Hit reply with your view - and the best ones will get included in our predictions piece (woohoo 🎉🙌 )
Okies dokes folks, thats all.
We’ll be back with all your usual dirty deets of what’s going down in health tech and innovation soon
👋 Emily
With thanks to our partners 💜
