Engineering to Your North Star with Satvik Gadamsetty

Last year we learned how Nayya was using data to help employees pick the best health plan. Founder and CTO, Akash Magoon told us that they were “restacking the financial odds in favor of American Families.” We loved that mission, and apparently, the market did too. Nayya has grown tremendously since we spoke and recently raised $55M in Series C financing. Now that Nayya has helped us pick our plans, they are taking the next logical step to help Use them. On this episode, we talk with Satvik Gadamsetty, Engineering Manager for the Use squad at Nayya. Satvik helps us to understand why this step is important, how they are approaching it in a data-driven way, and how their engineering approach maintains focus on the consumer as their north star. In addition to getting to know more about the Use product, you’ll learn about the engineering principles that are being applied to make it a reality.  We discuss telemetry, deployment, prioritization, and much more.   For full show notes and links, visit: https://thehcbiz.com/196-engineering-to-your-north-star-satvik-gadamsetty/  

Om Podcasten

A practical podcast on the business of healthcare w/ hosts Don Lee and Shahid Shah. The premise behind #HCBiz is that we can't "just innovate". Sure, you may have a great idea, an all-star team and execute flawlessly, but if you don't understand the complex dynamics of the healthcare business you'll never get traction. We'll identify the issues that impede change, explain why they exist and find ways to work with them, through them, or around them. In short, we'll help you create space for innovation in healthcare through technology (HealthIT | HIT | Digital Health) and workflow. We'll also explore health policy, administration and the psychology behind it all. Finally, we help you align your ideas to business incentives, market them to healthcare leaders and get the sale.
