If you are going to do healthcare startup, you definitely need people who work in healthcare especially MD. Figure out areas hospitals are losing money and what they are afraid of. Make things that solves that. If you look into Obamacare, you can see a lot of consequences for hospitals/clinics. I'm a nurse and also a designer who happen to be really into tech and have developer friends. Working on developing platform to streamline patient education with a major hospital. Got into it because I was annoyed with how things were done. Thanks for healthcare experience and having other healthcare people on team, I was able to pass through a lot of the politics.
