S4 | E5 | Healthcare Doesnât Have a Data Problem. It Has an Admin Problem with Matt Faustman @ Honey Health
Thu Feb 05 2026
Healthcare doesnât struggle because of a lack of data or innovation.
It struggles because of admin.
In this episode of the ThinkData Podcast, I sit down with Matt Faustmen, Co-Founder and CEO of Honey Health, to explore why back-office operations are the real constraint in modern healthcare, and how autonomous AI agents can finally unblock them.
We talk about:
Why EHR add-ons and traditional automation fall shortHow Honey Health decided which customers to go after first, and what they got wrongWhat makes AI agents fundamentally different from workflow toolsWhere Honeyâs real competitive advantage comes fromAnd the company Matt is actually trying to build over the next five years
This is a grounded, operator-level conversation about building AI for real systems, real constraints, and real outcomes, not demos.
If youâre building in healthtech, AI infrastructure, or regulated industries, this oneâs worth your time.
