    Lung nodules are one of the most common "incidentalomas" found in modern imaging, yet the path from detection to diagnosis is often fraught with patient anxiety and unnecessary biopsies. In this episode, we are joined by Chris Wood, the CEO of RevealDX, to discuss how his company is revolutionizing the diagnostic process. By using advanced AI to move beyond simple detection and into precise characterization, the platform helps clinicians distinguish between benign spots and high-risk malignancies before invasive procedures are required.

    Chris shares his journey as a serial entrepreneur and details the rigorous process of building clinical evidence for AI-driven tools. We explore the critical role of radiomics in identifying subtle features invisible to the human eye and the complex landscape of health tech reimbursement. The conversation also covers how these tools can streamline hospital workflows, support overburdened radiologists, and ultimately improve the success rate of early cancer detection programs by catching malignancies when they are most treatable.

    If you are a clinician, hospital administrator, or health tech founder looking to understand how to bridge the gap between innovative algorithms and routine clinical practice, this episode is essential listening. Chris provides a masterclass in navigating the "second wave" of healthcare technology, focusing on sustainable business models and measurable patient outcomes. Learn how a risk-adapted approach to lung nodules can save lives while reducing the burden on an overstretched healthcare system.

  • Fixing the EHR: Wellsheet CEO Craig Limoli on AI, Burnout & Smarter Workflows
    Jan 27 2026

    Is the EHR causing physician burnout? Wellsheet CEO Craig Limoli joins HealthTech Remedy to discuss reducing "pajama time," integrating UpToDate, and using AI to transform clinical documentation.

    In this episode of HealthTech Remedy, hosts Dr. Tim Showalter, Dr. Paul Gerrard, and Dr. Trevor Royce dive into one of the most persistent frustrations in modern medicine: the burden of the Electronic Health Record (EHR). We sit down with Craig Limoli, Co-founder and CEO of Wellsheet, to discuss how his company is tackling the dreaded "pajama time" - the hours physicians spend charting late at night - not by replacing the EHR, but by fixing how clinicians interact with it. If you’ve ever felt buried under thirty open tabs while trying to find a single lab result, this conversation is for you.


    Craig breaks down Wellsheet’s unique approach as an intelligent "layer" that sits on top of existing systems like Epic and Cerner. We explore how their predictive workflow technology consolidates fragmented patient data into a single, intuitive view, and discuss their game-changing partnership with UpToDate that brings clinical guidelines directly into the decision-making process. The discussion also covers their latest AI advancements, including an agent that allows doctors to "chat" with a patient's chart to retrieve data instantly and features that automate inpatient documentation to save hours of manual work.


    Finally, we look ahead to the "healthcare utopia of 2030." We discuss why smarter collaboration tools are essential for solving the looming clinical workforce shortage and how responsible AI can reduce burnout while improving patient safety. Whether you are a healthcare executive, a practicing clinician, or a tech enthusiast, this episode offers a pragmatic look at how intelligent workflows are reshaping the future of care delivery.


    About Our Guest:

    Craig Limoli is the Co-Founder and CEO of Wellsheet, a company on a mission to fix the usability crisis in healthcare technology. His journey began as a strategy consultant at IBM's Watson Health, where he witnessed firsthand the immense frustration clinicians faced with antiquated and inefficient EHR systems. Motivated by a nursing leader who broke down in tears over her inability to access the data needed to treat her patients, Craig left to build the solution himself. Wellsheet was born from this experience, with the goal of creating a single, intelligent "sheet" that synthesizes all relevant data for clinical decision-making.
