Driven by a personal passion to change healthcare and “the obligation to do the right thing for the good of every American,” Pramod John, CEO of Vivio Health, is on a mission to overhaul the specialty drug market.
He and the team at Vivio – founded by a leaders previously working in Pharma – want to use data to help people get the right drug, at the right time.
Pramod says medications are the most frequent intervention a physician will make, and that specialty drugs are the fastest growing segment of healthcare globally.
Yet, he also says that many of the drugs aren’t widely effective.
The team of Vivio sees opportunity for change and is working to improve things by using and analyzing real-world drug and patient data – analyzed separately from the FDA.
