In this episode of the Sunstone Health Podcast, CEO Josh Resnikoff discusses the philosophy of business for good. Moving beyond the cliché of social impact, Josh breaks down how Sunstone Health is built on a framework of pathological optimism. The belief that data-driven efficiency opens the door by saving money, but the real mission is the lives it saves.

Josh explores the tension between fiduciary responsibility and humanitarian missions, explaining why Sunstone refuses to take a dollar out of one pocket to put it in another. Instead, positioning Sunstone as the technical glue that aligns the incentives of health plans, employers, and families to solve the $1 trillion diagnostic odyssey.

Key Highlights in this Episode:

• Answers the adage that do no harm isn't enough anymore. Josh explains why we must move faster to prevent the harm caused by diagnostic delay.

• How Sunstone’s model ensures that every success for the business is a direct victory for a child with a developmental delay.

• A look at how Sunstone bridges the gap between the actuaries at the plan and the clinicians at the bedside.

• Josh shares his band-of-brothers philosophy on legacy and the grit required to get back on the horse.

"I believe you can do both: you can be a good steward of capital and still center yourself in doing good."

In the first episode of 2026, Josh Resnikoff explains the evolution of TMA Precision Health into Sunstone Health. This rebrand is a tactical pivot toward ending the diagnostic odyssey for children with developmental delay patterns.

Josh reveals the personal and historical inspiration behind the name Sunstone. A Viking navigational tool used to find the sun on stormy days, and how that same secret technology now drives Sunstone’s claims-level interrogation to find the invisible patients hidden in healthcare data.

Key Highlights in this Episode:

• Why 2026 was the definitive time to move from broad impact to a focused application of rescue engineering.

• The Faroese history of the Sunstone and how it mirrors Sunstone’s ability to illuminate a path through cloudy healthcare data.

• Josh discusses the shift from doing God's work to proving the fiduciary win for employers and stop-loss insurers.

• Josh reflects on his own son’s ongoing odyssey and why it feels irresponsible not to scale this solution to every family in need.

"The system is misaligned. We’ve built the engine to smooth out the friction."

The healthcare system is desperate for a solution that actually works. 🛡️

In our final episode as TMA Precision Health, Josh Resnikoff and Justin Starbird reflect on a year of explosive growth, from a pilot to 250,000 lives in a single weekend. But this isn't just a victory lap.

We’re closing the chapter on TMA to make room for a massive evolution. We’ve sharpened our blade on pediatric epilepsy, and now we’re scaling our engine to fight for every child with a developmental delay.

Listen in as we discuss:

• Why "Be Patient" is a failed treatment plan.

• The $1.5M community investment from the families we fight for.

• Why we’re setting "impossible goals" for 2026.

The system isn't delivering. We are. Press play to hear the future of our mission. 🧬

Years of specialist visits. No answers. Billions wasted. That's the Diagnostic Odyssey, and our Automation Architect, Cameron Pearson, is helping build the engine to end it.

Cam shares his personal, frustrating experience with his own father’s rare disease journey and explains why he left his successful career to join our fight.

This isn't just tech talk. This is about using AI for human good:

• Why did Cam leave traditional tech consulting? He realized he could use his skills to fight for families rather than just boost corporate sales.

• Hear Cam break down how our cutting-edge, agentic AI system safely takes on the healthcare system's complexity, shrinking years of uncertainty into just 12 weeks.

• "We are not leveraging technology to replace low-level jobs. We are using it in a very humanitarian way."

  
  

If you're tired of hearing about AI that doesn't solve real problems, tune in. This is the story of how a personal mission became the blueprint for disrupting a $1 trillion mess.

In this episode of the Sunstone Health Podcast, we are joined by TMA Precision Health CEO Josh Resnikoff and the internationally recognized physician, engineer, and TMA Advisor Dr. Paul Carney for a conversation about confronting the systemic failures in rare disease diagnostics. Together, we explore the moral imperative behind TMA’s work, the crucial role of AI, and how combining elite clinical expertise with technology is reshaping the standard of care.

Dr. Carney shares his decades of experience on the clinical front lines, providing chilling examples of patients, from those with severe epilepsy to a child with brain leukemia, whose lives were severely impacted because vital diagnostic information was present but misinterpreted. He argues that traditional medical training is now obsolete for handling the 15,000+ known rare diseases, concluding that the 6 to 7 year diagnostic odyssey is due to systemic throughput failure. Josh connects this clinical struggle to his personal journey as a parent, explaining why building TMA became a moral crusade to ensure other families don't face the same emotional and financial uncertainty.

They reflect on the powerful and rare convergence of data and opportunity currently driving the field. Dr. Carney details how he acts as the "doctor in the box," viewing TMA's advanced AI and genetic data platform as the necessary extension of his clinical practice. This fusion allows TMA to handle the vast computational task of pattern recognition, freeing up human doctors to focus on judgment, empathy, and decision-making. The goal is to establish genetic testing as a routine front-line tool, bringing actionable precision medicine to scale.

This episode is an inspiring and deeply strategic look at the clinical urgency and engineering ingenuity behind TMA Precision Health, and the leaders working every day to bring clarity to families who have been searching for years.

Tune in to understand the strategic and ethical reasoning behind TMA’s mission to end the diagnostic odyssey.
