FDA’s Troy Tazbaz is Changing the Narrative of Healthcare Technology
Episode 8
Monday, 14 October, 2024

Troy Tazbaz has long worked at the intersection of business and technology. And while it may not seem like a typical background for working at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), it may be just what is needed to push healthcare technology forward. On our podcast, Tazbaz recounts his thoughts as he accepted the position of Director of the Digital Health Center of Excellence at the FDA: “Given what was going on with artificial intelligence and all these emerging technologies, I felt that it was a really great time to join and come with a perspective that combines both my technical background and my business acumen.” Tazbaz recognizes that healthcare technology will need to be more than innovative to improve outcomes and reduce provider workload. It will take public-private partnership and a shift in perspective to take advantage of the possibilities. In the season finale of our podcast, we take a closer look at the potential of healthcare technology and Troy Tazbaz’s personal journey that led him to where he is today.
