Why Stability Is Emerging As A New Performance Signal In Healthcare Tech
Episode 3575
Saturday, 31 January, 2026
Why does healthcare keep investing in new technology while so many clinicians feel buried under paperwork and admin work that has nothing to do with patient care? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Dr. Rihan Javid, psychiatrist, former attorney, and co-founder and president of Edge. Our conversation cuts straight into an issue that rarely gets the attention it deserves, the quiet toll that administrative overload takes on doctors, care teams, and ultimately patients. Nearly half of physicians now link burnout to paperwork rather than clinical work, and Rihan explains why this problem keeps slipping past leadership discussions, even as budgets for digital tools continue to rise. Drawing on his experience inside hospitals and clinics, Rihan shares how operational design shapes outcomes in ways many healthcare leaders underestimate. We talk about why short-term staffing fixes often create new problems down the line, and how practices that invest in stable, well-trained remote administrative teams see real improvements. That includes faster billing cycles, fewer errors, and more time back for clinicians who want to focus on care rather than forms. What stood out for me was his framing of workforce infrastructure as a performance driver rather than a compliance box to tick. We also dig into how hybrid operations are becoming the default model. Local clinicians working alongside remote admin teams, supported by AI-assisted workflows, are now common across healthcare. Rihan is clear that while automation and AI can remove friction and cost, human oversight still matters deeply in high-compliance environments. Trust, accuracy, and patient confidence depend on knowing where automation fits and where human judgment must stay firmly in place. Another part of the discussion that stuck with me was Rihan's idea that stability is emerging as a better success signal than raw cost savings. High turnover may look efficient on paper, but it quietly limits a clinic's ability to grow, retain knowledge, and improve patient outcomes. We unpack why consistent administrative support can influence revenue cycles, satisfaction, and long-term resilience in ways traditional metrics often miss. If you're a healthcare leader, operator, or technologist trying to understand how AI, remote teams, and smarter operations can work together without losing trust or care quality, this conversation offers plenty to reflect on. As healthcare systems rethink how work gets done behind the scenes, what would it look like if stability and clinician well-being were treated as core performance measures rather than afterthoughts, and how might that change the future of care?
