TruLite Health, developer of health equity software to remediate clinical bias, has expanded its leadership team as the company strengthens artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities and scales to meet the needs of hospital systems, educational institutions, and other healthcare organizations nationwide.
Sleep physician Walter D. Conwell, MD, MBA, now serves as president. Previously serving as chief diversity and inclusion officer and associate dean for faculty development at the Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, Conwell led the development and implementation of a comprehensive equity strategic framework for the institution. He is also a practicing internal medicine, pulmonary disease, critical care medicine, and sleep medicine physician. Conwell has published numerous peer-reviewed articles on medical education, health economics, and health equity.
Conwell is focused on expanding the awareness and implementation of TruLite’s software, Truity, which addresses clinical bias at the point of care by driving patient-specific clinical, social and behavioral interventions.
“Through explainable AI and machine learning, TruLite has the potential to evolve health equity initiatives in a way no other solution can,” Conwell says in a release. “To help lead an organization through such transformational change is an incredible opportunity, and I’m eager to leverage my medical and institutional background to significantly advance health equity in this country.”
In addition to appointing a new president, TruLite has added two board members:
- Edmondo Robinson, MD, MBA, who has over 25 years of experience in healthcare delivery, management, and leadership. He is a member of the board of directors at Ardent Health Services and the University of Vermont Health Network.
- Caleb DesRosiers, JD, MPA, is a pharmaceutical and managed care services executive with experience in venture capital, regulatory affairs and public policy. He is a member of the board of directors of Daxor Corp.
“We have the right team and technology in place to significantly address health equity at grand scale,” says TruLite founder and CEO Alan Roga, MD, in a release. “The demand for our solution is growing as more healthcare organizations understand the multi-faceted impact of health equity and prioritize clinical strategies to improve care while lowering overall costs. Enhancing the expertise on our own team is a pivotal move amid growth opportunities.”
Leveraging a large health equity knowledge base, TruLite’s Truity software integrates into electronic health records. It provides patient-specific actions and interventions for clinicians, care teams, and patients within the workflow.
