This week on Tech Can’t Save Us, host Paul David is joined by Dr. Benyamin Deldar and David Hanbury, the co-founders of Deep Medical, a healthcare startup using AI to tackle one of medicine’s most expensive and overlooked problems: patient no-shows.
Deep Medical’s platform analyzes over a decade of appointment and social data to predict which patients are most likely to miss visits and why. Their explainable AI helps hospitals take early action, from sending targeted reminders to offering transport through partnerships like Uber Health, unlocking millions of new appointments and reducing health inequalities in the process.
Ben and Dave share how a doctor and a data scientist came together (literally matched by an algorithm!) to build tech that makes healthcare more efficient, fair, and humane. They discuss the global scale of the problem, what it takes to earn clinicians’ trust in AI, and how their mission could help eliminate hospital waitlists altogether.
