Improving health outcomes requires innovation. Sometimes that means innovation in clinical practice or business models to make health care more affordable and accessible. Other innovations involve leveraging new technologies or entirely new ideas to address the health challenges we face. In this episode of the Wonks at Work podcast, we’re joined by Grace Gill with the Fayetteville-based Startup Junkie Foundation to learn about Fuel HealthTech, an accelerator program that works with startups focused on emerging healthcare technologies.
