Onward Medical is driving the path to help paraplegics with spinal cord injuries (SCI) regain their lives, including one patient who is now able to play his guitar again, CEO Dave Marver tells Bloomberg Intelligence. In this episode of the Vanguards of Health Care podcast, Marver sits down with BI analyst Matt Henriksson for an in-depth interview about the company, key takeaways from the recent publication of the Uplift trial by Nature and how Onward’s developments differ from others that use brain-computer interfaces (BCI). The medical-technology provider connects BCI to its ARC platform to restore movement of the human body, instead of simply using the patient’s thoughts to control computer functions.

“You show me the incentive and I’ll show you the behavior,” says Sach Jain, founder and CEO of Carrum Health. Jain joins Bloomberg Intelligence analyst Jonathan Palmer to explain why misaligned incentives sit at the heart of specialty care’s cost problem. Jain details how Carrum built a value-based marketplace around curated centers of excellence, surgeon-level quality data, bundled payments and provider risk, giving employers more predictable costs while offering patients a guided care path with fewer surprise bills. He also discusses specialty care’s $2.5 trillion annual spending, Carrum’s reach across almost 7 million lives, its expanding health-plan partnerships and why AI can either intensify the fee-for-service arms race or help providers prevent complications when incentives are aligned.
