Digicorp Health’s Co-Founder Featured on MedCity Influencers on Why HealthTech Products Fail Clinical Deployment

MedCity News has featured Digicorp co-founder Sanket Patel in its MedCity Influencers program, highlighting his perspective on why so many healthtech products struggle to move beyond pilots into full clinical deployment.

Drawing on more than two decades of experience building and scaling healthtech solutions, Sanket explains how “pilotware” happens when products are optimized for early excitement instead of long-term clinical reality. He emphasizes the importance of:

  • Designing software architecture and commercial strategy together, starting from the scale you ultimately need.
  • Meeting governance, risk, and security expectations from day one to avoid accumulating “sign-off debt.”
  • Treating clinician time and attention as non‑negotiable safety constraints, especially in high-pressure environments.
  • Building deployment strategies that work for mid-size community hospitals, not just large academic centers.

These are the same principles that guide Digicorp’s work with health systems, digital health companies, and healthtech innovators across the U.S.
